Union Jack Pub: Your Local Destination for Pizza and Pints

Union Jack is a broad ripple staple!! It's got all the details that a local pub should have. We come here Tuesdays for trivia and it never disappoints. The staff is incredibly attentive and they will remember you if you come often. It's got a cozy, friendly feel. The only reasons I give 4 stars instead of 5 are because 1. the parking situation is pretty tiny and 2. I think they recently changed their fish and chips and they're not as good anymore.

The fish and chips are an absolute must-try! I ordered the Italian beef sandwich, which was good, but I couldn't help regretting my choice after trying the fish and chips my boyfriend ordered. The Italian beef was decent, but the fish and chips stole the show. The breading was perfectly seasoned and crispy, making every bite irresistible. Compared to that, the Italian beef just didn't stand out. Next time, I'm definitely going for the fish and chips! This place gets busy and they have tvs to watch sports which is great. Service was on point and we enjoyed our time there.

Dropped in here for a pit stop to avoid the traffic on the interstate and a refuel before heading south. The beer list is Phenomenal. The menu is eclectic in a Good Way. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a rhubarb and soda cocktail and a War Pigs brewery Cave of Dreams marzen along with a fried pickles appetizer with boom boom sauce to start. Surprisingly delicious and refreshing. I went with a vegan option of a BBQ pulled Jackfruit sandwich dressed with avocado slaw and a side of potato salad (seasonal option) for dinner and my navigator ordered a house specialty -- the Reuben sandwich with chips. All parties were happy by the time we hit the road. Service was good and ambiance was quaint. This has the feel of a bonafide watering hole with no attempts to be anything other than what it is -- the equivalent to ripped jeans and maybe a favorite concert t-shirt. Would happily return when I'm in the area in the future -- the stellar beer list is one of those that I dream about. (It also appears they have a food truck sitting in the back parking lot -- wish they'd head south to my neck of the woods someday!)

I must catch myself from making a fatal error: comparing. Not to other restaurants, onion rings, ales, or tenderloins. Today I found myself comparing the game slate to past moments in this wonderful establishment. How unfair! I've stood far too close to a stranger and even my friends in this oasis of football. Smelling notes of beer on bated breath and the tantalizing delicacies of passing plates. How can one compare the 2022 World Cup Final to anything? My mistake! Union Jack is quiet when it's quiet and loud when it's loud. She's a pearl like that. Come for a USMNT game or UCL Final with every assumption you'll stand for two hours. Bring a few friends as barricade to the casuals who feel far too comfortable spewing commentator talk and wearing scarves indoors. All love, but once a woman told me that Josh Sargent was the ideal #9. For non-ball-knowers this is the equivalent of saying your local cover band are world class performers. Any other time, grab a seat and enjoy slightly overpriced food and drink that still makes you smile. I wolfed down a monumental portion of tenderloin and onion rings while watching my Drawbreaker bet once again draw. An abundant helping of mayonnaise and plenty-o-pickles were available for my tanned sandwich. Erotic. A wild thought - pitchers of something beyond Bud Light? Could be the move! Ultimately, two thumbs up for watching soccer here and that Cajun Pasta which offers consistent toast mopping opportunities. Spicy and creamy sauce gets all three points in my book. Union Jack you're a good biscuit. (cookie in American).

I so terribly miss the cozy Speedway Union Jack's. We patronized the pub for almost 40 years and decided to visit the next best thing, Union Jack's in Broadripple. Parking was a breeze, and we walked right in and sat at a high top table in the bar. There is lots of wood in the restaurant with a rustic decor. It isn't as warm and cozy as I remember when the restaurant was across the street. We were hungry and excited to try the food. A sign on the table said scan the QR Code for the menu, but we asked for real menus. Great selection of cold craft draft beer and full bar service with dine at the bar option. The music is at a level to have a nice conversation. The menu offers normal pub food with lots of vegan and vegetarian options throughout the menu. The menu covers appetizers, soups, salads, burgers, wraps, and sandwiches. The house specialties offer fish and chips, bayou pasta, grilled salmon, and queso mac & cheese. The desserts sounded good. I was excited to see Pizza from 7" personal pan to a 14" pizza. Your option of crust is traditional, thin, gluten-free, stuffed pizza pie and my favorite, Indy style deep dish. I can't wait to return for a deep dish pizza. My husband ordered the Italian beef sandwich with french fries and really enjoyed it. I ordered the Cajun Chicken Club with a grilled chicken breast topped with bacon and pepper jack cheese on a grilled brioche bread. My side was a cup of navy bean soup topped with cheese. The bean soup arrived as requested before the sandwich. The soup was extremely good, with a thick topping of melted cheese. I was disappointed with the dry, overcooked chicken breast and extremely crispy bacon. I feel like the bacon is my fault because I didn't specify no crispy bacon, and many people prefer extra crispy bacon. The dry chicken breast was overcooked to the point of no moisture. I know I should have returned and asked for a do-over, but we didn't have time, so I never mentioned it to our server. Our server was the bartender who was very friendly and personable. She checked on us often, refilled drinks, and checked us out timely. I will definitely return with friends to share a deep dish pizza I've been craving. I wish it was more comfortable with cushy booths, but we'll pick better seating on our next trip.

I was here with part of a group event of 75 people and service was still top notch! Food came out quickly and staff were very friendly. I ordered... Heart shaped personal pan pizza ($12.50): for the month of February, the heart shaped personal pan pizza donates $1 to the Love, Broad Ripple nonprofit organization that supports small businesses in Broad Ripple. The pizza itself is fantastic! I would sure like to come back without a group event to see how the place is normally, but I would imagine the space is very relaxed with still very high quality service. Parking is available on the streets, or the nearest parking garage is the Broad Ripple garage by The Vogue. There is no private lot with the Union Jack, or at least not one that is very well marked.

Just went back to Union Jack, they were playing a soccer match my husband had to watch...ok with me because we have some fantastic beers to try out and ordered a small pizza to split and it was delicious!! I have to say I love pizza and the crust, toppings cheese were a perfect ratio. We sat in the bar and our waitress was very attentive and had some great recommendations on beer. The cozy feeling of a pub on a cold gross day made everything better! And we may have stayed for and extra soccer game just to continue enjoying the coziness
