Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Bub City - Rosemont offers a lively atmosphere with delicious barbecue, "great service," and "spectacular" live music events. Patrons enjoy the "juicy and tender" brisket and flavorful beer selection, with a standout Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. While the venue can be noisy, outdoor seating provides a more relaxed experience.

    Love love love the chicken nachos and the mac ‘n cheese here! Friendly service, runs a little loud at times (ok maybe I’m just getting old, lol) I love they have outdoor setting with great people watching.

    We have been going to Bub City on Weed Street. That was the best! Had my 35th birthday party there. The Rosemont location doesn't compare. The Brisket is still the best, just melts in your mouth. No issues with the flavors, however in the past I was able to get the bbq wings broiled as opposed to fried. The wings are already smoked, why is frying necessary to warm them up. The cooks have done it for me before. We brought out of town friend. Ordered 3 sides, and shared a brisket burger. Totally loved everything about it. My husband and I had the brisket sandwich. Was delish. Our waiter was interactive, discussing their beer choice, very pleasant. My real complaint was the inflexibility to personalize my dinner. I would have loved the wings, and I love the burnt ends (which are only served on the weekends). To be honest I think they are crisped up by frying as well so I wasn't that disappointed. I'd still go back if we were going to other concerts in the square, but at least I'd be prepared.

    Had a precious young lady (petite with nose ring) who could not have been more embracing and kind! Upon sitting, noticed the air temp was boiling and mentioned it; was explained that earlier the A/C/electricity had gone off. We ordered two types appetizers (two baskets of one type) and everyone was drinking water. After ordering our food, the electricity went off again and we were advised no food forthcoming since no power in kitchen. We were also advised to just pay for one of the appetizers; however, thought we should've been comped given not only the immense heat of the establishment but the celebration we planned was now caput! I LOVE Bub City and will return, perhaps in the fall.
