Bugsy's is (yep) in a strip mall on Brookville Road a little east of I-465. It's a good-sized place with a pool table and lots of TV's, and it has the look and feel of every other modern strip mall bar you've ever been in.... But wait! There was just something about the joint that made us feel, well, comfortable. It's really clean, with tile flooring in most areas instead of the nasty colorless industrial carpeting most bars have. The barmaid on this Saturday afternoon was a nice-looking non-redneck lady in her late 40's who has two kids in college and generally made sure we had everything we needed. We'd just eaten lunch so we didn't sample the pub grub, but what I saw looked and smelled really good. They had some really great drink specials posted, too, so you can definitely make the price fit your budget there if you're willing to be flexible. We were thus very favorably impressed and wished it wasn't so far from our home.... I guess by way of a compliment you could say that Bugsy's does ordinary right. Drink up!
I've been commenting on the relative merits of various bars and restaurants in Indy for so long and at such great length that a number of folks told me I need to become a food & dining critic. Being easily suggestible and not able to recognize sarcasm when I hear it, I have developed this little journal of adventure drinking & eating in Indy, primarily on the South Side. So if you're bored, enjoy!
