Favorite bar! Wish they didn't change their menu and still had the hot honey garlic wings though. Best wings in the city! I also wish they had the black bean burger still! I miss the old menu!

The wings are genuinely some of the best in town. If you go ask for the wings Ricky Bobby style, and you have to get the Blambo sauce. If it's not too busy the service is great, everyone is extremely nice and you can get food and drinks fast. The overall ambiance is great for a smoking bar because the local patrons are all very nice as well, given you're a reasonable and courteous person.

The bar reeks of smoke, and we never got a serve or bartender attention, so we left. The place was extremely busy and understaffed, however.

Great place with great food. Karaoke. Pool tables. Darts. Trivia. If only had a few more servers it would be perfect!Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian foods available though they're not listed as.

First impression was not great as I was enveloped by smoke. I didn't think smoking was even allowed in bars anymore. But whatever, I was there with friends for karaoke, so I figured I'd go with the flow and have a good time. I went up to the bar and was ignored for a full 8 minutes. (Yes, I kept track of the time.) The bartender wasn't even busy with other people. She was putting glasses way, putting bottles up on the shelf, seemed to be finding any random tasks to avoid serving me. And I was not watching karaoke; I was watching her the whole time, trying to make eye contact. She eventually did look up at me briefly and then continued with what she was doing. If for some reason tidying up the bar is more urgent than serving a customer, that's fine, but at least acknowledge me and say you'll get back to me in a minute. Instead she turned her back and a guy on the other side of the bar waved in her face and asked for a drink, which she made and then continued serving people on the other side of the bar. Then she left the bar area, and I thought, okay, she's busy or stressed; now that she's coming back, she'll get to me. Nope. She looked at me and turned back around to the other side of the bar. Maybe this just isn't my kind of bar if it's the type of place where I have to rudely get up in the bartender's face to get a drink. But I also work in the service industry and think that servers should serve people without having to be accosted by them. And I do love me a good dive bar (see my review prior to this one), but this is not a good one. I really wanted to at least see my 3 friends do karaoke, but after being there for 50 minutes, they still didn't get to the third singer in our group. Yet there was time for the guy leading karaoke to get up and sing himself. If there are customers waiting to sing who have already signed up, then why is a staff member busting in and singing in front of the customers? Service was terrible, and the smell was terrible. I wanted to eat food that didn't taste like cigarettes, and I also wanted a drink, so I left early since clearly neither of those things were going to happen here.

Nippers is a great local watering hole with good food and awesome service. Living in Carmel/Westfield, I can really appreciate and support a bar like this. Really enjoy the "dive bar" feel. We need more places like Nippers around this area imo! 5 ✨'s!!

Good food, family-like atmosphere, and poker 5 nights a week.My favorites on the food menu are the wings, Ricky Bobby style (fried, then sauced in your choice of sauce, then grill), the chicken tenders, and the build your own mac-&-cheeseThe owners are some of the best people you could hope to meet. They are the most active owners of a bar or restaurant that I've seen. Involved every day, in every way. I will be a patron for life, though not as often as I'd like because I moved.Parking: Huge parking lot. Never had an issue finding parking further than 30 ft. from the door.Wheelchair accessibility: Everything is flat.
this bar fucks. calin is the fucking goat. if ur a lil bitch - this bar is not for you.
