Screen Shot 2016-02-03 at 1.27.22 PMWhen Center Grove resident Todd Johnson opened the Mucky Duck Grill and Bar at the corner of State Road 135 and Stones Crossing Road, he brought a new vision for a gathering place in the Center Grove community.

Johnson describes it as a family-friendly restaurant atmosphere balanced with a local sports bar offering many large screen TVs for a variety of sporting events. Johnson is working to provide something special every night. Tuesday night is a trivia contests and Thursday is Ladies’ Night.

A recent expansion has added more dining space in a room that includes a dance floor and stage area. On weekends, the room will host Karaoke for all ages with DJ Phat Katz on Friday nights and Saturdays feature live music and dancing. The room can be closed off for private parties or special events.

Anyone can reserve the room at no charge for birthday parties of all ages, luncheons, bridal or baby showers, family or class reunions, dinners for friends and family, client meetings, graduations or whatever you are celebrating.

The Mucky Duck menu features a wide selection of food items prepared fresh in the restaurant. Of course, you’ll find a tenderloin: Pop’s Tenderloin sandwich is stretched, hand breaded and prepared in the kitchen. The barbecue is smoked in house, and the pizza features a made-from-scratch hand-tossed crust and their own sauce and spices. The pizza is a hit – they served 2,000 in the first two months.

When Johnson is in the restaurant, you will find him asking customers about their experience, thanking them for coming in. His young family is often seen in the dining room and children’s play area enjoying this new adventure. Johnson wants to share his success with the community that shaped his life. He has already donated food to school events and is making plans to create a positive impact in the community.

As Mucky Duck Center Grove finds its way, you are likely to find a few different things each time you visit. It may be different, but it is just as close to home as before.

Business Overview: An extensive menu of great food, drinks and fun.
