Red Key Tavern is a historic and cozy bar famous for its great burgers made by Sully. The atmosphere is unique, with model planes hanging from the ceiling, creating a nostalgic feel. It is a cash-only establishment, so visitors should come prepared. The prices are reasonable, and on Thursdays, they offer $4 wells. The staff is friendly and welcoming, always eager to ensure guests have a good time. The bar has been around since 1921 and is the 3rd oldest in Indianapolis, offering a piece of College Ave history. Although the food menu is limited, especially for vegetarians, the burgers are highly recommended and considered some of the best in town. The place has a laid-back vibe, with a reputation as one of Indy's greatest dive bars. Visitors often find the staff humorous and genuine, adding to the charm. This place is perfect for those who enjoy a relaxed environment with a touch of history and character.
