Best bars in Indianapolis: find options near you

We planned our adventure to the Hangar to celebrate my daughter and her boyfriend’s 21st Birthdays! The entire experience was above all expectations! We went to ride the pedal bar (which was fantastic! So much better than we even thought it would be!) but really enjoyed just hanging in The Hangar! From the moment we arrived Erin, better known as E, was friendly and engaging and so much fun!! We got some phenomenal drinks and those scrumptious Spare Tires to take on our ride! We then pedaled our butts all over the city and stopped at a few hot spots, one I never even knew was there, 16-bit! So fun!! We went down to the bottleworks district and then finally back to the Hangar to Hang! We had more drinks and some Pizza, fried pickles and of course, more fantastic Spare Tires! Those things are so good we would drive back down today to have more for Dinner!! Carlos our bartender and E made the evening a smashing success! We played games, met new people and genuinely loved every minute of it! We cannot recommend this experience enough! Everyone in the group is looking forward to the next experience on the pedal bar and in the mean time we will definitely be back for those Spare Tires!!

First time attending a game in Indianapolis as an away fan and, tailgating at the hanger is the best bang for your buck. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly and provided a safe atmosphere for football fans of all backgrounds. It’s located directly across from Lucas oil stadium. You can’t beat the game day specials and games and activities that they offer. My friend and I were raving about this place to the fans tailgating in the parking lot so much they thought we were being paid to do so. That couldn’t be further from the truth. They made two New Yorkers feel right at home. Would highly recommend. Will return.

Right from the beginning, I noticed the fun atmosphere. I ordered some appetizers to take and share on the ride that Were a huge hit! Very yummy! Service at the bar is super friendly and fun.
Unfortunately, it was a rainy night, but our Host Noah made it fun! Many times we would forget The rain coming down. We let him choose our stops. I did not let us down, choosing some great bars!

Overall, it was a great night! We would definitely come back!

I always love coming to the hanger, especially before Pacer’s games. My fiancé and I actually went here to celebrate my engagement a year ago! We love the staff. I just recently went on the bikes and had an INCREDIBLE time. It’s a must if you’re in the area!

A group of friends and I went out on the handlebar tour and we had the best time! Our driver Benji was so fun and really took our experience to another level. We can’t wait to go again and already plan on requesting Benji for our next ride!

Had a great experience!! Faith and Hope were great with our group! Thank you for the memories. The 7ft pizza and the golf bays after were also phenomenal! Thank you to the Hanger group for being great hosts!

We booked a HandleBar private tour and I would say all of our friends had a blast!! Our tour guide Noah was absolutely amazing. He was extremely outgoing & just overall amazingly chill.
We love the new games they implemented which should be kept but may not be for every crowd so I would determine that during the ride which group would enjoy it. However, for our group it was super fun.
The first bar we went to was some type of Arcade bar which was amazing. Our group would have rather stayed longer at that particular bar vs the last bar but still enjoyed our time.
The hangar mixed drinks were hit or miss. a few loved it, a few stated it was a little week for them for the price. I did drink one to myself and would agree it isn’t strong but it did give me a little feel good.
The seats were a little rough and most of us were a little uncomfortable in the butt region the following day.
We ended the night back at the Hangar with the 7 foot pizza. We had such a large group that the pizza was not big enough for all of us and was interested in purchasing the 7 foot nachos as well but was unable to do so. I was extremely disappointed in that part as online it does say “7 foot pizza or 7 foot nachos or… enjoy both” but there wasn’t a both option during booking nor on the menu.
I was a little disappointed that the golf room was closed when we got back. I was really looking forward to it when we got back but it is what it is.
However, overall we enjoyed ourselves & are already planning our next private tour. Just hoping on the next booking with as many people we have the option to do both nachos and pizza.
Thank you to Noah again for an amazing tour and for being an amazing tour guide. We are definitely requesting you on our next tour.

To boogie

So I’ve been to numerous locations around the country and they always provide good service a good meal and nice cold beers. We were there with a large group. The servers did a great job and tried to be attentive to everybody overall, I would go back again.

From the moment I walked in, the experience at Yard House was top-notch. I was warmly greeted by Blessing, who lived up to their name and set a positive tone for the visit. Though there was a 30-minute wait, it was absolutely worth it.

My server, Angelique, was phenomenal. Even with the restaurant packed wall to wall, she made me feel like I was the only patron in the building. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and kindness were above and beyond.

I ordered the Maui Chicken, and it was incredible. The flavors were so rich and satisfying that I didn’t want to distract from the experience with any beverage besides water—just to truly savor every bite (see pic).

All around, this was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Kudos to the entire Yard House team, and a special thank you to Angelique and Blessing for making it memorable.

Yard House offers excellent and efficient service, ensuring you are seated promptly even during peak hours. It is conveniently located near the Indiana Convention Center, making it easy to visit, even during events. I highly recommend trying the chicken avocado sandwich, which was an incredible suggestion from my waitress. It was a standout dish, featuring a well-balanced combination of flavors and outstanding chicken preparation. Truly remarkable!

The Yard house has a good selection of different foods. Healthy salmon/fish/seafood or salad options and delicious burgers and appetizers. The espresso martinis are quite good and the beer selection is great. We think this is a great option downtown Indy. Their happy hour during the week offers great deals!

Food was excellent and happy hour apps were great as well. We walked in during finals Pacer games day and only waited around 15 mins. Our server was hospitable and a table tablet help speed things along. Atmosphere overall was good, but not a place to have a conversation.

On Easter Sunday we had the great opportunity and pleasure to have lunch at the Yard House, Everything was perfect . We would like to thank the entire staff for a wonderful lunch, the hospitality that we experienced was absolutely fabulous. Our server Chrissy was fantastic and Amy Robertson showed us incredible hospitality.

Thank you to the entire staff

Finally went here for a beer and a meal. Tried to visit this place during a Colts Home Game but didn’t get there early enough to truly experience the place.

Last night we stopped by for dinner. They have live music every night. I had their Chef Salad and a side of Onion Rings that we shared. My son ordered their wings with Spicy BBQ Sauce and some with Lemon Pepper. I tried the BBQ wings – very nicely done. The Onion Rings and Chef Salad were great.
Very nice food well made.

I’ve heard good things about this place, but my first (and last) time here was a disappointment. They often play live music, but my wife and I really just came for the food. We came on a Friday night, and they were charging a $5 cover per person, which was no big deal to us, as I know they probably pay the musicians. The part that annoyed me was that they didn’t tell us at the door that they were only serving a limited menu that night, due to an event that was going on at Lucas Oil. We would have gone elsewhere for dinner before paying $10 to get in, had they told us that at the door. Felt like a bait and switch move, and I absolutely hate that feeling. The food we did get was ok, but nothing spectacular. Maybe their regular menu has better food, but we didn’t get to see or try it. The menu they did offer was basically just appetizers.

We stumbled upon this place while we were doing an overnight. What a gem . Tje atmosphere was like going to an old friend’s house. It was inviting and comfortable . The food was excellent. We had the spicy chicken sandwich, which was fantastic. The staff was welcoming and pleasant. It was an all-around enjoyable evening. It’s definitely a must go place, you will be glad you went.

My wife and her mother split the beef and bacon nachos, it’s a baking sheet full of them. they liked them a lot. I got the buffalo chicken salad, was pretty good, too much bleu cheese for me, but I’m a little picky.

This is the oldest bar in Indiana. It was opened in 1850, which is 175 years in business! We had the famous Tenderloin Sandwich here, which is a Midwest staple and part of the local culture here. Service was great, food was great, value was great. What more could you really expect from a 175 year old bar and grill? Highly recommended!

Was looking for a nice laid back place to have a drink or 2 and dinner. Found out the fried pork tenderloin “started” in Indy so I ordered it. It was crispy and light with a really good flavor.

The inside is what you would expect from a place that bills itself as the oldest bar in Indiana. That’s not a bad thing as it was also clean, had fast service, cold beer and delicious food. I did not get noodles, even though they were on the menu because, honestly, it didn’t seem like a pasta sort of place (this was confirmed by a quick website search of where the name came from.) Since this is Indiana, I opted for the giant tenderloin and I was not at all disappointed. The breading was crispy and well flavored and it was freshly made. The tator tots were tasty because, you know, tator tots. If I’m ever in the area again, I will stick around for the live music.

Amazing Irish B&R! We went before a 1pm Colts Game and the place was packed. They had first come – first served seating. We were immediately greeted by a beer/Jell-O shot seller who was really nice. Then we walked and found a seat right away (luckily). When we ordered, even with the place packed, our food was super fast and delicious! I recommend this place to anyone traveling to Indianapolis.

This is my first time here since I came from California. It is a very historic restaurant with authentic Central American cuisine, especially the sweet potato fries are so

They have a shot list. Enough said. No seriously, I loved the shot list. I imagine this is a pretty popular place with the ladies who like a tasty shot or mixed drink. They have plenty of combinations. It’s exciting to order! We got the stuffed bread sticks. They were delicious but greasy.

Best sports bar experience Ive had! Helped that place was packed w happy Pacer fans after winning ECF!! But waitress/bartender ( Marissa?) was great being able to serve hundreds- and get me a burger and drink in the chaos. Cheeseburger was very good.

We stopped in on a Saturday about 5:30pm hoping to catch an early dinner before a comedy show at Helium across that street. We were able to get seated immediately and our waitress was super attentive. We got drinks almost immediately, our appetizer came out hot and fresh and our food followed at just the right time also hot and fresh. I got the smoked and fried wings, and they were fabulous. My date got the salmon tacos and she said they were really good. We would definitely come back

I was in town for the Disturbed concert the other night and stopped in before had to get an bite to eat and a few drinks. The place was packed to the gills but somehow we managed to score two barstools. My meal was real good. There is so many shots, bombs and long islands to choose from. I ordered a long Island and they are served in a half pitcher. It was well made and delicious. The bartender were always on the move because it was so busy but we never had to wait for drink. They were amazing. Great place for a meal and to hang out for a few hours. I’ll be back.

Hayley was wonderful! She took care of us and it was such a busy night because of the Pacers playoff game. The patio is nice but they also have so much space inside.

Awesome place!!! The games are free and the drinks are great, we got the most sour sour of all time, green bastard this place is a gem! Servers were really nice and the movies playing on the screens were a cool addition

Tappers was nostalgia in a bottle. So many classic arcade games that instantly brought me back to my childhood. Games are free to play with a beverage purchase. Beverages have fun names related to various video games and pulp culture references.

The layout of the facility is easy to navigate as the games are spaced out in a ring around the bar with custom wooden tables for your drinks between each machine. Impressive pulp culture references are airbrush painted on the walls. A killer lineup of new pinball machines in the backroom are waiting for you. While not included in the free play, they are a blast too with many different movie/show references.

Plenty of seating if you get tired crushing it on Contra or Street Fighter II. There is a handicap accessible ramp to the pinball area and bathrooms were very nice.

I suggest coming here after you have a meal elsewhere as they don’t really have a full food menu and I’m guessing that if to keep the arcade machines from getting gross.

Lastly upfront near the entrance, they have console based games including Super Nintendo N64. They even have some of the classic table top games like you would have seen in Pizza Hut from the 70s/80s.

A great find here in Indy!

Great arcade place with beers. When you like drinking beer and playing old school arcade games this is the place to be !

I had an amazing time at this place for my birthday! It was just my husband and me, and we had a blast. The bartender was super friendly, the place was really cool, and the games reminded me of when I was a kid. We can’t wait to go back!

Amazing spot, tons of retro 90s games and more modern ones. Buy a drink and all the games are free! Oh and be sure to try Killer Queen!

This is one of my favorite places to hangout. The games are a blast and the drink selection is wonderful. It’s very retro from pinball, house of the dead, galaga, mariokart and more. You’ve got over 50 games to choose from. The consoles up front Nintendo64, and Gamecube have over 50 selections alone on them. The staff is very friendly and it’s a great place to kill time or spend an afternoon. They have chips, and other snacks but don’t serve food. But you can order food and bring it in. Best to park on the street and walk to it.

There are a few of these types of places popping up. This one is a phenomenal concept. They have some game systems set up with more contemporary games, a ton of old school, and then there is pinball. Sorry no Mappy as of the writing of this review. Beer? They got it. Plenty to chose from. Come by yourself. Come with friends. Whatever, but this place is top notch. Pinball is not free.

We stopped at this brewery on our way from Oklahoma to Michigan and it did not disappoint! We arrived at 2pm on a Tuesday and it was mostly empty. We were greeted immediately and seated by a manager or brewer. There was one server and one bartender working. Both were great! The bartender was able to make me a cocktail off menu and my husband was happy with his IPA. The server did a great job of checking on us and even refilling sodas for the kids without being asked. The food arrived quickly and it was all beautiful and fresh! We had no problem finding parking on the street and no trouble with traffic. Overall a great experience!

My only notes:
The chicken on the sw BBQ salad was pretossed in the BBQ sauce so overall pretty sweet. I also found there to be a lot of pico (which is a me problem- I expected it to be a topping that I could avoid but it was incorporated in the salad).

Excellent vibe, delicious fresh beer at one of my favorite breweries in downtown Indy. I love St Joseph’s vibe and setting. Good outdoor seating options when the weather is nice, cool indoor seating in the church when the weather is less than ideal. Nice staff and great beer and food options. Highly recommend the beef poutine for a starter and lamb burgers if you love flavor. Will return!!

St. Joseph’s Brewery is a unique and memorable spot. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit—housed in a beautifully restored old church, it has a warm, inviting charm you won’t find anywhere else. The high ceilings, stained glass, and historic details make it a perfect backdrop for enjoying a great selection of craft beers. I had the Brian Burger with German potato salad, both delicious, and the menu offers plenty of other tempting choices. A must-visit for anyone who loves good beer, good food, and unique settings.

Sirloin steak was fantastic! All beers on my flight were wonderful! The music was an incredible mix of 30+ years of hip-hop and r&b! Highly recommend

Great place. Beer selection was great. Had the chicken sandwich with pimento cheese added. German potato salad was my side Wouldn’t get the potato salad again. The stone ground mustard is too much. It over powers everything else in it.

Knowledgeable and kind service! Wonderful people who actually deeply care about growing their communities love for craft beer. Highly recommend the Blonde with the Sesame chicken. Bold food choices, excellent beer, cool history, Wonderful scene. Cannot recommend enough.

St. Joseph Brewery is an old church which is now a restaurant and brewery. Menu is diverse, including burgers, pizzas, entrees, appetizers, etc. Food is all decent, beers are decent but not the best in town. Service was good. Brussels sprouts appetizer is delicious! The lamb burger had great flavor, unfortunately was cooked close to well done despite being ordered at medium rare. The meatloaf is a nice comfort dish. There are TVs at the bar and around the main seating areas to watch sports.

I came here for the first time with my mother and brother. They card you at the door. Pinball machines and retro arcade games are everywhere. Pinball is $1 and everything else is free.

They have a change machine and ATM. The giant slide was fun to go down and the Game Over drink was decent but not very strong. You get to keep the cup as a souvenir.

Fire pits are outside and chairs to sit in. Upstairs is another bar and comfortable sofas and some games with the slide access. In the back there are video games.

The bar can make any drink you want off the menu since it is a full service bar. The drinks are pricey so I don’t recommend coming just for the drinks.

No food is served here either that I could see. You can’t bring outside beverages. Good luck finding parking. You can use a parking garage nearby. 10/10 would go again. Perfect chill spot.

This is the place you want to be on a Friday night. All the games are free to play and they have all the classics from Pac-Man to frogger. They have an extension selection of drinks. This place is a whole bunch of fun, you don’t need to go anywhere else other than here if you are looking for a great time in Indianapolis.

Very hip and nostalgic arcade. Full bar with happy hour. Good prices. Games are free, 21 and up, which is also nice. There is skee ball, a lounge area with big screen TVs playing old music videos. Good place to play games or chill for the night. They even have a slide! Friendly service.

This place is outstanding! We were in Indy for the weekend looking for some fun and this place nailed it. There are tons of pinball machines which are $1 to play, but every other game there is free!

There are probably 30+ free play machines. From Miss PacMan to Mortal Combat, original donkey Kong, space invaders, racing games they really have everything. And enough of them so there weren’t any lines.

On top of the arcade machines they also have NESS, Super Nintendo, and SEGA systems set up with all of the old games!

Want to play something more physical? There is ski ball and a ring toss up stairs. When you want to go back down for some corn hole, you can take the slide down.

We spent 3 hours here and they flew by. Bee and Grace were excellent and answered all of our questions enthusiastically.

This is a gem, and exactly what we were looking for.

In Town for a conference, our vendor had a closed party at 16-Bit, what a great place, takes every Gen-X’re back to their teens and 20’s. Great service and an awesome craft beer selection on tap. Love the Neon Signs too.

I recently visited 16-Bit and had an amazing time! The atmosphere was a perfect blend of nostalgic and modern, with a wide variety of classic arcade games and pinball machines. The staff was super friendly and bartenders were attentive.
The drink menu was diverse, featuring a good mix of craft beers & cocktails. I particularly enjoyed the Hulk Hogan, which was expertly crafted. The bomb pop makes it so good & it’s refreshing. I also recommend the Game Over drink. The prices were reasonable, and they even had some daily deals. As well as happy hour 4-7 weekdays

What really stood out to me was the overall vibe of the place. It was lively and energetic, yet still comfortable enough to relax and enjoy the games. The music was spot on, adding to the fun without being too loud. Outside seating is nice as well. They have giant Jenga, fire pit area, giant beer pong & the Midwest classic: corn hole. Oh yeah & there’s a slide inside and skee-ball! For the kids at heart

Overall, 16-Bit is a fantastic spot for both gamers and those just looking for a fun night out. I highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area!

Very cool bar with a lot of free games available to play. During game days it can be crowded. Pricey drinks but nothing too crazy

Restaurant Review: A Memorable First Visit

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant for the first time, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed, particularly by the staff. Our bartender, Katie, stood out with her exceptional service. She was not only attentive but also incredibly polite, making sure our drinks were always full and engaging with our group in a way that created a lively and welcoming atmosphere. It was evident that she cared about the guests, as she actively interacted with everyone around us—her efforts truly set the bar high for hospitality.

Adding to the positive experience was Mickey, who introduced himself as the manager. He made several rounds to check on us, displaying a level of professionalism that is often hard to find. It’s refreshing to see a management style that emphasizes customer engagement and satisfaction.

As a restaurant owner myself, I genuinely recognize the value of having dedicated and personable staff like Katie and Mickey. Their approach not only enhances the dining experience but also reflects a well-run establishment focused on its patrons. I would happily welcome either of them into my own team. I look forward to returning and seeing how the rest of the menu and staff live up to this high standard—definitely a place worth visiting again!

The atmosphere is awesome! Our server Liz was amazing. She chatted with us, shared all her suggestions on the menu and we told her we were from out of town and she suggested places to visit in town and the area. She was really sweet with my kids too!! Highly recommend, food is great and lots of sports Tv!! We happen to be here for the NBA Draft which made it even better!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tom’s Lunch Bar is an absolute neighborhood gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a warm, buzzing atmosphere that strikes the perfect balance between friendly local hangout and chef-driven café. The staff is incredibly attentive and genuinely enthusiastic—always ready to chat about the daily specials or brew you the perfect cup of coffee.

I tried their signature avocado toast and it completely blew me away—creamy ripe avocado smashed to perfection, served on beautifully toasted artisanal bread with just the right hint of spice and citrus. Seriously, the flavors were so fresh and vibrant they might as well have been picked that morning.

Their breakfast burrito is another standout: chock-full of farm-fresh eggs, savory bacon, tender potatoes, and melted cheese, all wrapped up in a house-made tortilla. It hit all the right notes—comforting, hearty, and flavor-packed.

Tom’s also excels with its rotating seasonal smoothie bowls—bright, colorful, and healthy as heck, ideal for breakfast or a light lunch. And yes, the presentation is Instagram-worthy, but more importantly, each bite tastes as good as it looks.

The vibe is relaxed, inclusive, and welcoming whether you’re fueling up for the day, meeting a friend, or working solo with a laptop. Plus, the communal tables create a fun, lively environment. Prices are reasonable for the quality, ambiance, and freshness they deliver.

Overall, Tom’s Lunch Bar offers an outstanding blend of top-notch food, friendly service, and inviting ambiance. If you’re in the neighborhood and looking for a delicious start—or midday refresh—to your day, this place is a must-visit. Highly, highly recommended!

Great place for the biggest sport fans ! TVs all over the place with very possible game going that day ! Jamaican jerky wings were awesome ! Just the right kind of kick ! Everything was wicked expensive but you get what you pay for ! Drinks were nice and strong our bad tender was nice .

How does a sports bar in a WNBA city not have other WNBA games available to watch?

The hostest was warm, welcoming, and helpful. We chose to sit at the bar as we had planned on watching the Dallas vs. Chicago game after attending an afternoon game at Gainbridge. Service was slower than expected (yes, Im from New York), and I know things are done differently from our fast-paced way of things. However, not making eye contact with a new guest or acknowledging someone when they arrive is simply poor customer service. Then, clearing 2-3 bar spaces (on a slow Wednesday night) before taking our drink order was just a bad decision. The manager was also behind the bar at the time we were there.

Our food was lackluster and highly over seasoned. We also ordered a starter. The starter came out with our meal. I would not return to this establishment in the future upon a visit for another WNBA game.

Went here for the first time, everything was good had a watermelon margarita and the chicken nachos were . Courtney was our server and she was so sweet made sure we had everything we needed kept our drinks were full. I will definitely be returning!!

Our server Ashley was amazing, very kind, and attentive to our needs. The food was very tasty and flavorful!!!! If you’re reallly craving a beer I suggest the 40oz! It’s a unique twist for the Tom’s watch bar

I really wanted to like The District Tap because of its prime location in downtown Indianapolis and the overall lively atmosphere, but unfortunately, the food just didn’t deliver. I came in expecting a decent meal and left disappointed—especially after spending nearly $17 on something that barely passed as average bar food.

I ordered the chicken tenders and French fries, and the entire plate was extremely underwhelming. Out of the four tenders, only two tasted fresh—crispy, hot, and cooked just right. The other two were clearly not made at the same time. They were dried out, rubbery, and tasted like they had been sitting in a warmer for a long while. The inconsistency in quality was obvious and disappointing.

The fries were just as uninspiring. Basic frozen fries you’d find in any grocery store—no seasoning, no crisp, no effort. They were bland and soggy by the time they reached the table. Absolutely nothing special, and definitely not worth the nearly $17 price tag.

Service was fine, and the vibe of the place is cool, especially if you’re just there for drinks or to catch a game. The bar area had a decent crowd and good energy, so I can see why people hang out here. But if you’re looking for quality food, this is not the spot. There are plenty of better dining options downtown. I might come back for a drink—but I definitely won’t be ordering food again.

Stopped in this place and was happy we did. The food was hot, cooked to perfection along with an attentive server. All restaurants in the downtown area if Indy were full due to the Black Expo and WNBA All-Star events going on. I would definitely return to this establishment.

This place has great food. First time coming here for me while it was the 2nd time for my friend. We got the snack sized nachos which were huge and tasty. The ingredients were nice and fresh with great flavor. She got a burger with fries while I got the smash burger and sweet potato fries. My smash burger was great with the burger being seasoned to perfection and the sweet potato fries were crispy on the outside and soft the inside and seasoned well. The prices were not horrible, I’ve ate pricier food that wasn’t as good. The atmosphere was nice. We had a late lunch so it wasn’t too busy and loud and service was very fast! We will definitely be back when we go back there for an Indiana Fever game!

Didn’t order any food but they serve flights so I indulged, while watching some games on TV. They have an excellent selection of various beers. They were all great. Service was great, the barkeep even let me sample a couple other beers he thought I’d like. He was right! The bar wasn’t overcrowded but it was bustling. Glad I dropped in.

This was our 3rd visit to The District Tap. And was a special evening, as it was Game 6 of the NBA finals and The Pacers were playing that team from OkC. What a fantastic atmosphere to be in. What was special was as busy and crowded and crazy as it was. Our food was very good, served timely our waiteress was attentive to us the entire evening. We were there. Our app we tried the Texas guacamole… WoW! Could make it a meal. 2 or 3 kinds of steak finely chopped in the well seasoned Guac. That alone is worth the trip dowtown. They could get a little better tortilla chip but that didn’t take away at all. Thats just me. My burger was great cooked perfectly as to be juicy but not pink, well seasoned too…

I came here for lunch while in town for work. I didn’t have to wait for a table, which could had been a result of the time I was there, but I was seated and served quickly. The service was very good. The food was very good, and the prices were good for the size of the meal. I definitely recommend coming here.

Good spot for a beer and food before a Pacers game (if you can find a seat, or willing to stand). The beer selection is pretty good for this type of place, including many local crafts. The pork nachos were surprisingly good, and the steak burrito bowl was also pretty tasty.

If you’re into unpretentious hangouts with great energy, this shotgun shack-style bar and music venue is a must. We stopped in after a Fever game and found a lively crowd, a DJ spinning upbeat tracks, and a laid-back atmosphere that made it easy to settle in and enjoy the night.

There’s plenty of seating both inside and out on the patio, making it a great spot whether you want to catch the action or kick back with friends. The drink scene is strong here—daily specials and a solid Happy Hour (Monday through Friday) mean there’s always something good and affordable on tap.

Hungry? The expansive menu has you covered. From wings and tenders to burgers, tacos, and much more, there’s something for every craving.

Want to catch a live set or DJ night? Be sure to check out their website for the latest music lineup—it’s a great spot to keep on your radar for a fun night out without the frills.

I had a great time at The Tin Roof! The atmosphere was lively and fun, with great music and a relaxed vibe that made the evening enjoyable. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure our table had everything we needed without being overbearing. The food was tasty, especially the appetizers, and the drinks were well-made and reasonably priced.

The only reason I’m giving four stars instead of five is that it did get a little loud, which made it hard to have a conversation at times. Still, if you’re looking for a spot with good food, cold drinks, and energetic nightlife in Indy, The Tin Roof is worth checking out.

Fun times, especially after leaving Gainbridge when you can see live music. I wish they served late-night food, but I still go there for the fun atmosphere and delicious drinks!

Popped in for a drink and they had some live music going. The band was good, Pom Teddy I believe. Good cover stuff, which enhanced the experience.

Wouldn’t call it a dive bar because it’s obviously manufactured to look like one, but it worked. Service was solid. Adequate beer selection and a lot of space to spread out.

Try the street corn quesadilla with chicken (pictured). Overall a fun place!

I didn’t have any food here so I can’t comment on that. But the drinks were good and I’d even go as far to say that they were some of the best I had around the area. I went to 4 bars and I went back there for more drinks because they were better. It was more expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for there.

We were recommended to stop by and grab some dinner while in town.
The fish and chips were a great choice.
The breading was light and fried to perfection, fish was delicious, and shots of Jameson were generously poured.
I’d recommend eating here if you enjoy your European / Irish heritage.
