30 Best American Restaurants in Muncie

“OVER ALL GREAT EXPERIENCE !!! FOOD WAS VERY GOOD !!! WE BE RETURNING“

“Good food! Our waitress was amazing! Definitely on the pricier side so Definitely was a treat out kind of night. 👌🏻“

“The food is always tasty and Megan is the best server there is!“

“We ate here for the first time today and I have to say that the food is absolutely delicious! The place is really calm and didn't to earth. They have several options on the menu and that's something I really like verses not having many options. The staff was very kind and I'll absolutely return. This restaurant is very well worth it!“

“We love Culver's! It is the best fast food around. The place is always spotless and the staff is always friendly. Their butter burgers are fantastic and so are their chicken strips. They also have several seafood options and even pot roast! Their cheese curds and other sides are different than the standard fries you get everywhere else, although they do have those too! I personally think their coleslaw is the best I have found in ANY restaurant. You can also use the handy QR codes at your table to order if you want to skip the line.

Make sure to save room for their awesome frozen custard! We also like to take home a pint or two from their freezer case up front for a treat later!“

“Delicious! I was in the mood for a really good omelet and this place did not disappoint! Everything from the fresh squeezed orange juice to the omelet and everything in between was perfect. We went there for brunch. I highly recommend if you're in the Muncie area.“

“If you’re looking for a laid back, no frills spot, Cheers is the place to go. It’s a cozy little hole in the wall bar, but that just adds to its charm. The vibe is casual and welcoming, with friendly staff and affordable drinks. It’s the kind of place where you can kick back, relax, and enjoy life without feeling out of place. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into a chill atmosphere.“

“Great food fast and friendly service. Will definitely be back.“

“Love the place. I would eat here at the Muncie location every time when I visit Muncie when I was a little kid. Even though I would eat here occasionally but the food is still amazing. I can’t complain. Food outstanding, staff friendly, and relaxing atmosphere. I love any MCL.“

“Great place had a great time ! Staff was amazing 🤩“

“Since Rubys 50th Anniversary we visit the Muncie location almost weekly. Great service (Ivy), great ribs (bourbon sauce), a salad bar, and great promotions on the App. Thanks for being in our community.“

“Good beer. Nice people. Could be faster in the kitchen but they get busy.“

“We had a date night tonight and the food was amazing (Thursday special of shrimp scampi and lobster). We also shared the Margarita Flight and loved it (we had the hot spices left off of the passion fruit one). The Brussels sprouts are worth the upgrade for a side. Service was also excellent. That's why we come back!“

“I became a patron for the food and the general atmosphere. Now it’s my go-to to get out of the house. This little gem is Muncie’s best-kept secret. Known for their statue of Paul Bunyan, this bar serves all the usual bears and has a fairly deep liquor shelf. Their food is out of this world. I personally recommend the ribeye sandwich and fried mushrooms.“

“I’ve ate their several times definitely good food. I really enjoyed the red curry and green curry. Their grilled chicken salad is good too. Service can be slow at times but my orders were always and and food has always been good. Definitely recommend eating here.“

“Was very impressed with food, service and friendliness.“

“Good American breakfast. It's filling and tasty.
The staff is very welcoming and friendly ❤️.
Food: I ordered the French toast platter and my friend ordered the omelette skillet with spinach and extra cheddar and a side of one pancake 🥞.
Drinks: We had mimosas 🥂. The orange juice tasted natural and the champagne was 11%. My friend had black coffee ☕ and water 💦.“

“Bartender Angel was being rude and talking about us behind our backs. Expecting tips when I'm here to have fun. Getting rude at other customers for eating food a friend of mine brought for EVERYONE. Fire this woman. I don't appreciate the rudeness or the talking behind our backs.“

“Excellent service. Great food. The staff is friendly and professional. The menu has gone through a recent change and I am finding excellent new entree’s and drinks to try. Head of house, Addy, invented my new favorite cocktail The Peachy Palmer. I highly recommend.“

“great staff, great service“

“I absolutely love Roots! I have never had a bad meal from there. The atmosphere is always great and the service is exceptional. I highly recommend them to everyone I can.“

“Love love love this place. Lots of fun. Great place to go and not worry about fights. Most bands are great. I’ve really NEVER seen drugs being bought or sold. Staff is great. Like all bars there are trouble makers but they are escorted out very quickly. If you want to go somewhere and dance, chill, or just really have a good time. This is the bar. Best bar in Muncie and around Ball State“

“Stopped here for breakfast with my wife. The workers were a bit loud chatting back and forth but not obnoxious. My only complaint is that they were out of cinnamon raisin biscuits and that was what my wife wanted. The pancakes and fries bologna biscuit was good. But I can't get enough of the hash rounds. They are yummy.“

“After having left this restaurant with a sour experience previously, about 7 or 8 months ago, we gave them another chance only to be extremely pleased with the level of service and the quality of professionalism! The manager at this location was beyond helpful engaged and courteous to all of his customers this is the type of management this restaurant needed long ago“

“I usually visit Muncie in the summer, so when I come here, it’s usually empty at the cup. This time I had an iced latte and a breakfast sandwich, both of which were excellent. This is always one of my must visit stops when I return to my hometown.“

“Normally I’d give Roadhouse a 5 but not this time. Our food was brought out by a guy that had hair hanging below his eyes. I told the waitress that it was unsanitary she agreed and said several people had complained about him. Why is he still working“

“This was a good experience. Good food, not a long wait at 6:00 about 15 minutes. We sat in the bar area at a table quick to ask us for our drink order but then she had to take care of the bar drinks so it took a few before we got our order in. Once we did normal wait on food to be made when it came out tasted good“

“Matt was excellent! We had our son’s 21st birthday party at Brothers. Matt set everything up, was on top of everything all evening. Matt and his team made our night perfect! Food and drinks were excellent, so glad we picked Brothers for this event“

“Our family always gets together for breakfast on Thanksgiving. Usually we go to another local restaurant that has a little back room that we reserve for the morning. This morning we went to that restaurant and it was completely closed with no cancellation of our reservation or anything. So last-minute scramble for somewhere for 20 people to go for breakfast. Bob Evans was more than accommodating the food, and the service was wonderful. I should have gotten the name of our waitress as she did a great job! Overall wonderful experience, especially with the last-minute nature of the situation!“

“Nice place, great service. A bit dated on the inside but nothing crazy. The food was great and we received it quickly while it was hot. Everyone we interacted with was super nice, we were greeted when we came in the door and when we left. Would definitely go back.“
