Unfortunately, the bartender may have had a really bad night or she is drunk, because some random girls decided to engage in conversation with my husband, and suddenly he was affiliated with them (the girls were doing drugs?!?!) it was super confusing what happened, however the girls were kicked out for visiting the bathroom in pairs too many times. We were banned and told never to come back because they talked to him. I tried my best to find some reason in all of this, but it was not resolved, she had her mind made up. My advice to someone who isn’t a regular, don’t come. They do not welcome anyone new for arbitrary reasons. It’s too bad. I used to love this place.

My friend and I drove 3hrs from Ohio to Indianapolis for the Taylor Swift concert yesterday, long story short we got played and wasn’t able to get in due to a ticket issue, so we decided to find something else to do and try to make the best out of our situation and night! I hopped on Google and looked up “bars near me”, and this was the one that caught our eyes! When we got there and sat down, I immediately knew we made the best decision!! These were strangers to us, but it really felt like family after 15 mins of being there, it felt like home💕 The other customers were all so sweet and kind to us, even offered us food and looked out for my friend and I throughout our time there to make sure we were safe! The service was absolutely wonderful, we ordered a pizza and it was literally the best pizza I’ve ever had🥹 Thank you guys for an incredible time and memories that I’ll never ever ever forget, you guys turned our night around for us and we are so very thankful, grateful, and appreciative for that and yall🥺🥹🙏🏼💕 I’d also like to thank the kind man who followed my friend and I back to our room to make sure we made it safely, yall have good hearts and we are so thankful for you and for this experience, God bless🥺😭💕 Please go check this place out, it’s so worth it in every aspect, and the bartender is super sweet, and helpful, along with being handsome and having the most beautiful and welcoming smile!!!! Thank you Indy for a great time, we can’t wait to come back😍🥳

Here to say their gluten free pizza is sooo good!! I'm from the region where pizza is made right! Since moving here, I've been disappointed with pizza more often than not. Esp gluten free!
Their pizza is perfect!! Just like my hometowns, not stingy on toppings and seasoned perfect and addicting!

So I think this is my new favorite local place. Had a great local, friendly vibe. Only reason I ranked it 4 stars is because the wings took sooooo long! That being said, they were super delicious!
The bartender was sweet and helpful and was managing a full bar alone pretty efficiently!
I got the house favorite wings, like I mentioned, amazing! Mostly got beers, so can’t comment on the drinks really.
I will be coming here more often, so hopefully the time it takes to get food was a fluke. I will definitely update this review to 5 stars.

⭐️The ROOK is like Cheers... where 'everyone knows your name' ? Kyle & Ashley are the best and will make you feel right at home. The back patio adds a special spot to enjoy the evening. Don't miss The ROOK!⭐️

Small friendly bar to go grab an after work drink with friends & listen to the jukebox. (Unless there’s a big game on) I was most surprised by how amazing their food is! Definitely not just normal pub grub! I love their Taco Tuesday, their Mahi Bites and Steak Bites are awesome, good wing flavors & I even had a Chicken Piccata one night that was fabulous! Nice staff too!

Most amazing food, drinks, and service in all of Indy.Whether it’s the wings, burger, pizza, cheese balls, etc. You can’t go wrong with anything. Great local spot. My go-to spot in Broad Ripple.

Nice local bar. Regulars are a staple . It seems everyone knows each other and that in itself is pretty darn cool. The wings were really
