Don't let the exterior fool you! This place is really nice and welcoming. The inside has been updated and looks great! It's clean, modern, and relaxed. The first floor is fairly small, so on busy nights I could see it getting a little cramped, but don't let that dissuade you! Even the bathrooms were very clean and well maintained.Their food menu is small, but the chicken, bacon, and ranch pizza was really good. The BBQ sauce on top was a bit weird though. They had a good selection of drinks, however I think the kegerator was on the fritz because the beer I got was not cold, but still tasted fine.The bartender was incredibly friendly, and the owners came in at one point and seemed genuinely interested in getting customer feedback and asked about what sort of events would folks be interested in.Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.

Super cozy and friendly neighborhood pub. Food is simple but tasty. Service was excellent. We tried the tenderloin sliders and cheese burger sliders. Both were good. Beer on tap and a full selection of top shelf spirits. We will definitely be back.

New owners, talented chef give this bar new life. Tucked away speakeasy has great potential! Guinness beer battered chicken is a must try!

ive been coming to shelby on the downspin of shehelby street saloon for a long time but the bartender and the karaoke of shelby is second to none the bar needs to invest into the love and care into the vibe into the experience. the only thing that is better to the bar is the three person staff that runs the operation on a daily basis and keeps it moving forward lets keep it moving forward if your serious 3142838602 -vince

The people are rude everyone knows everyone’s business they have roaches they were rude to my parents. They’ve called the cops on me and they are all disrespectful. It is not a place for family and friends to go and hang out worst bar I’ve ever been to in my life

Huge hamburger tasted awesome not dry but juicy and the salad was amazing too. Beer ice cold only wayI like it. I couldn't belive price was reasonable cheap for top quality food. The place is decoratively nice.

Food isn't the best here, but the atmosphere and service makes it 5 stars. We booked the upstairs for a party of around 20 people and it got a little cramped when everyone was together, but was still a good time. My pregnant wife went to get a drink for me and the bartender made it virgin without saying a word. That's called taking care of your guests. We missed some live music downstairs that sounded really good. I'd say the biggest downfall of this place is the space, it's definitely hard to get around with a full house.

Really fun event space. They have a speakeasy upstairs with bar, seating, etc. really well priced and will keep this on my list if I need a fun event space!

We hosted our work group’s holiday party at the Speakeasy tonight. I can’t say enough good things. This place is a hidden gem. So unique and fun. Beautiful decor, excellent food and drinks, amazing service and ample room for everyone yet feels quaint and cozy. Dawn made the booking and food order process easy and once I was there I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They took care of everything. Book your party here, you won’t regret it.

Highly, Highly, highly recommend renting out the speakeasy for your private party! The ambiance is so special and we had so much fun! Service was great, food and drinks were great, our party couldn’t have had a better time, and the price can’t be beat!

This is the cutest bar that I have seen. The decor is really nice. Everyone treats you like you have been coming for years. Very nice place.

Great place to grab a drink on Southside Indy. Fun cocktails specials. And a historic Speakeasy!
