Hunters Pub South

Hunter's Pub South has a good reputation, and is one of three locations in the Greater Lafayette area. This one has better parking and a roomy outdoor patio. Inside there is plenty of seating and can accommodate large groups. No smoking allowed inside, thankfully. The food here is so-so pub food. The service is average to poor. But somehow people flock here. I'm likely to go back and probably with a group of friends.

Food was awesome, service a Little lame! Would like to see more drink specials, yesterday was beer day yuck!

After "getting the lead out" at nearby Applied Ballistics, the family was hungry, so we stopped in for a quick dinner.  We started with the "Fries Americana" which had seasoned, well-done fries (our favorite) covered in lots of melted cheddar, topped with fresh diced green onions and really good smoked chopped bacon.  These were delicious, and a much better quality than the typical bar-food cheese fries.

I had fried catfish which was fresh, nicely seasoned and not overly battered.  My husband's chicken caliente sandwich featured a surprisingly moist fried chicken breast dipped in a spicy buffalo sauce, with pepper jack cheese.  My son's mexican burger was also a hit, with a heavy hand to the sliced jalapenos that made his brow sweat.

Service was well-paced and friendly.  The place is very family-friendly even though it's a bar (smoking is only allowed on the outside patio, and this is the only Hunter's Pub location that allows kids).  

For a basi American-fare bar, this place was pretty darned good.  If it was closer to home, I'm sure we'd be regular visitors.  As it is, we'll probably make a point of stopping in next time we head to the shooting range.
