Fish and Chips are absolutely delicious. Atmosphere is perfect, chill, not to loud or quiet. And the service was very nice.

Came in for a scotch with some fish and chips. The fish batter was addictingly good and the fish was pretty huge compared to others. The price was way lower than i was expecting and the service was quick and friendly. Think I found my favorite place for fishn’chips.

I can't really say much about the atmosphere but it's a bar so I'm sure it's pretty positive. But the reason I'm leaving this review is specifically because of the burger I just ordered. It is by far the best burger I've ever had in my 37 years of life. If you want a burger go for the Big Ben. I took the onion rings and the chili off of mine, and it was still the most satisfying Burger I've ever eaten in my life.

We were in a few weeks ago and my wife got Lancashire Hot Pot. It was delicious, I tried some it was lunchtime. We went back tonight with friends, we both had the Hot Pot for dinner. It was not good vegetables were awful. Gravy was bad and meat was okay but more of it at lunch. So get Hot Pot at lunch.

Found our table by the window. Noticed a little note that advised us to notify the server that we've chosen that table. So, we did. To a wildly unwelcoming server. Made it seem as if we're stupid to say anything. He was smug about it. Hardly even acknowledged us.
He brings us over the menus, which had food on them by the way, and says absolutely nothing at all. Then he just walked away.
SERVICE FIRST every single time.
Simply unacceptable.

We had a great experience at this cozy bar/restaurant serving tasty English comfort food. We tried the Scotch eggs, fried pickles, and shepherd's pie — all were delicious and satisfying. The flavors were spot-on, especially the perfectly seasoned shepherd's pie, very cheesy. The beers were fresh and cold, with a good local selection on tap. Service was quick, attentive, and genuinely friendly, which made the whole visit even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for hearty food and a relaxed atmosphere.

Came out for the new breakfast bagel offerings. Bagels are great and hang browns are super crispy. Glad to have another breakfast offering in FSQ!

4 stars because their dinner menu is solid and the service is always really good.
However, the new breakfast is a miss. They are charging $10.50 for a bacon, egg and cheese bagel. It’s the most expensive bagel sandwich in the city of Indianapolis (I checked, this is a fact.)
Additionally, their menu pricing is messed up. The sandwiches are more expensive than if you ordered a la carte. I tried ordering a bagel for $3 then add bacon for $2, egg for $2 and cheese for $1 ($8 total) but they wouldn’t let me, despite those options being on the menu (pretty sure this isn’t legal). It’s the same for the combo “deal”. $14 for an egg and cheese bagel with hash browns and a coffee. But if you order all those things a la carte, it’s $11.50.
I commented on their IG post with these discrepancies and they deleted all comments and locked the post.
Don’t get these bagels. Go directly next door and get a bacon egg and cheese sandwich from Easy Rider for $7, a reasonable price for the product.
EDIT: In response to Red Lion’s snarky comments about getting a bagel vs a sandwich. Here are the prices for a bacon, egg and cheese elsewhere in Indy- Broad Ripple Bagel Deli $7.95, Bearded Bagel $8.55, Sidedoor $9.50, Java House $5.35.
But sure, focus on it being round bread not square bread, instead of the high price and price discrepancy that was pointed out to you before the launch day. You even changed menus but didn’t fix it after deleting my IG comment. I even tried messaging you privately first to quietly bring up the issue. But instead you ignored it, deleted my comment and chose to respond here with a snarky reply.
Good luck with the most expensive bagel sandwich in Indianapolis.
My favorite bar in Fountain Square. A great place to watch sporting events, listen to live music, and enjoy DJs on weekend nights. The food is terrific and the staff are tremendously friendly. Make sure to stop in and grab food and a drink!
