“BEST burgers in Indy, even better people working there! I’ve never had a bad experience or bad food. Always consistent. Always welcoming. Always delicious. 100 plus years making the best smash burgers!“

“Its refreshing to come to Barringers Tavern. The service from Marcus is what I appreciate most. He is always welcoming, funny and considerate. That is the main reason I visit Barringers with my friends regularly.“

“Awesome place and the staff goes out of their way. Food was amazing ❤️ Would recommend this place! First time and won’t be our last.“

“Ordered the Ale Supremo pizza and ended up having to wait about an hour until we got it. No biggie. It happens. The manager (Diane) threw in a large order of wings, refunded our money, AND gave us a $20 gift card. Now THAT'S customer service! The food was absolutely delicious, too. Needless to say, we're Ale Emporium customers for life. Thank you!“

“Consistent good food and better service 🍀“

“Stopped here for a drink and snack. Was greeted by the sweetest gal, we were served very quickly and everything tasted wonderful!“

“Came for dinner, group of 3. Ate at the bar. I had the fish and chips and they were so yummy. It's a busy, energetic place in the evening, lots of fun, noise and music. Staff was friendly and service was quick. Reasonable prices. Decor is fun and eclectic inside- don't let the outside fool you into thinking it's just a standard 'strip-mall' type of place!“

“great food drinks and atmosphere“

“Our first time eating here. Sat outside with the pups. Service was AMAZING! The burger was one of the best I’ve had in a long time! And the sweet potato fries were to die for! Highly recommend!“

“BR Tavern is the best place to go to for sports fanatics!!!!! Every TV has a sports game playing and BRT definitely ranks as one Of Broad Ripples Best Sports Bars!!!!!“

“First time visit. Can’t wait to go back! A real gem in the area like a Time Machine. Don’t forget your cash!“

“nice place to have a good time at“

“When in on Saturday the 24th.had to ask the bartender for silverware and condiments never got the silverware had to eat with my hands,she was more focused on the regulars at the bar than me and my date,saw a gentleman over served of alcohol he was asked to leave too only be sat outside drunk in the extensive heat no water nothing, I've been in the industry for over 20 years and have been coming to this establish that long if this is what you see on Saturday will stick to my Monday and Wednesday day where I'm treated like I belong can only hope the gentleman they sat intoxicated and left in the hot sun is okay.“

“Kool local joint! I do believe it's in the old Rockin Bentleys!“

“This is a great restaurant and bar inside the Sheraton hotel.
When I went for dinner, they were not busy at all and I was seated right away at the bar. The staff immediately came over and took my order for drinks.
They have a good size menu with lots of options. I chose the cheese raviolis and they were really good. Extremely cheesy and the cream sauce was really flavorful as well. It was a good portion for the price.“

“Took my God Son ~ Prince Johnson, to play some Back 9, and we played some golf while all of the Indy courses are covered in snow. Let’s Go!“

“Jessie and Meagan are great“

“My biscuits and gravy were served with spoiled gravy. It took me a couple minutes to realize the cheese aftertaste was spoiled milk. I've have had diarrhea all day....I will never come back. Clearly unsafe food handling and cooks who do not taste what they are serving.... in 45 years I have never had bad biscuits and gravy until today.“

“😁Love This Place Great People makes you at home“

“Server Odyssey was "Off The Chain" professional!“

“Very casual dining place,I loved it. Had lunch with a friend,quick service,food was great, we sat and chatted for 3 hrs without feeling rushed or obligated to pay the bill and leave. It's definitely a place to come back to. I saw they had nightly activities,like trivia night, fun place.“

“I travel to Indy once or twice a year, and I make sure I stop at KSR for food and drinks. By far the best family-owned bar and restaurant I have visited in Indy. I highly recommend this place. Do not judge by appearance (which I believe makes it a better experience). The pizza, wings, and sandwiches are off the charts. Hell, the salads look amazing, and I am not a big salad fan. You can tell that if you know me“

“Always a blast. New favorite hangout.“

“I ordered Taste This Fishon Uber eats the other day. This 5 piece perch was perfect. I opted for fried soft with original batter. The hush puppies and greens was 🔥🔥🔥 It was so delish. Next time you are craving seafood check them out. 3624 E. 25th Street. #brightwood #seafoodlovers #aishathecomedian“

“GG's bar & grill is a top notch local eatery on the Northside of Indianapolis. Great food options, courteous and knowledgeable service staff, and excellent drink offerings. Bonus points, they carry Rhinegeist Truth IPA on Tap! Highly recommended.“

“I was visiting Indianapolis for a weekend and ended up here two nights. It’s a really good sports bar downtown. Grabbed some late bites here on a Friday night and the nachos were good and the fried pickles were tasty too. Then went back Saturday night to watch all the college football I could stay awake for. The drinks are reasonably priced but most importantly, the service is excellent. The bartenders are incredibly nice even when the places was packed. Have fun with the shots menu- we had green tea shots and Cinnamon Toast Crunch shots
10/10 would recommend if you’re in town for a colts game and need somewhere reliable!“

“I was there on Monday for live music. The bartender Jessy is amazing. Jacqueline's fried chicken wings are amazing and so hot you can hardly touch them.? Everyone there was very friendly, laid-back, comfortable atmosphere.

Vegetarian options: A variety of vegetables“

“I’ve never been to a brew house quite like this one! They are kind, accommodating, and super friendly!“

“I was there for Mr. Turner's 50th birthday party. I was invited by his wife who planned and invited everyone. We had our own food and cake. The place was very nice. Tastefully remodeled and created an inviting atmosphere. All of our birthday party ?? had a great time.Respectfully,Madam Ambassador Dr. NealyUnited Nations Peace Ambassador NGO ECOSOC Dr Angela J. Nealy, B.S., M.S., Ph.D.“

“Bambi Jess was our waitress/bartender and she was on point the second we walked in the door. She did a fabulous job with serving and answering questions. I got the Samosa Chaat and it was FABULOUS, I will order again!! Thanks for a great time!!“

“I have been coming to this place since it was the thirsty horse. The staff they have now is comparable to about 7 years ago. Everything on the menu offered if available. I had the best burger I’ve eaten in a long time tonight. The bartenders are a great team finally and are competent minus a skinny tall girl yelling lol. I don’t even think she was on the. Lock. Bethanne and Kaylee are a great duo. Atmosphere has calmed down from craziness and is more inviting now.“

“Fun atmosphere. Music bingo, games, karaoke is fun!“

“We had fun everyone was nice and friendly“

“Drew was an amazing waitress. Informative and friendly. The atmosphere is a tad run down and drab. They have pool tables, mini basketball, golf simulator and a few arcade machines.
Outdoor seating, projector screens and live music looked available but weren't in use while we were there. We got there on a Tuesday from 6-10pm.
Beer options were good but the beer was not cold.“

“Great music great vibes great shoots size great prices has pool table darts sometimes karaoke and live bands me and my people prefer the jukebox but that's just us had an amazing time and the staff is great the door guy that was there that night was awesome as hell ?? great place would definitely recommend it“

“Two Thanksgivings in a row. Great place to hangout after Turkey Day.

Bartender is solid and the beer selection room is fantastic. They have a TouchTunes so download the app and enjoy.

We all moved out of Indiana, it return every year for some drinks at the Mass Ave pub.“

“We were apartment hunting and decided to check this out for dinner.
Great ambience and a great place to hang out.
We got a pizza brussel sprouts and a wedge romaine salad.
The pizza was thin crust and had great flavor.
Brussel sprouts was an interesting pairing with cherries and mustard seed...it worked well, I think maybe slightly less of the mustard would have been nice.
The wedge salad is a classic and they did a great job with that.“

“This is a great neighborhood bar. Try the fried chicken special, it’s a great deal and delicious. Love this bar!“

“great music and good food...🥰🥰🥰“

“Great crowd! Great bar! Highly recommended“

“Nice atmosphere Taylor took good care of us“

“Easter brunch was exceptional. Service was great.Eddie’s is a great place for breakfast, well for so much more… one of my all time favorite places to stop and relax a bitThe owners Michelle and James really keep friendly staff and wonderful atmosphere and customer service that goes above and beyond!!!“

“The scotch eggs were delicious!“

“Best wings ever! This is the best location as well“

“Great place to eat, have a few drinks Thursdays bike nite live music great place to hang out and enjoy“

“Definitely 21 & over. They card you at the door upon entry. Basically you order at the bar, tell them where you will be sitting, & they bring it to you. Tons of TV with lots of sports plus horse racing. Let's talk about the menu it's not large, but definitely has something for everyone. Indiana known for Pork Tenderloin Sandwich was a great size & enjoyed the seasoned fries. At the bartender's suggestion I tried the Pork Tenderloin with mashed potatoes, cream gravy, & onion strings. Fantastic! Full bar & enjoyed a really tasty margarita. Would definitely go back.“

“Nice bar, with ample seating and decent parking. The staff could have been better at coming back to check on us and paying better attention to bringing the correct drinks and returning for refills, but overall, it was a pleasant first-time experience. There was an open comedy mic night, and that was interesting. Mike G and the DJ were great!“

“Had a great time here. Nice environment and very friendly staff. The bartender (can't remember her name now) introduced herself to us and asked our names. Throughout the night, she called us by name and made the visit very personable. We will definitely return.“

“If you want to get a different perspective of Indianapolis, come to the Rooftop Garden. A quick elevator ride in a beautiful Art Deco building, and you can enjoy a nice, cold drink and a beautiful view. The wings and pizza were tasty, too!
P.S. - go during the week for a lighter crowd“
