Food Scene
Bar frequented by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. Owner was an eclectic, charactered fellow who kept a list of gentlemen's rules (and maintained them). Quaint place decorated in WWII era style with a great juke box!

One of the best vegan menus in the city, along with deepdish pizzas and killer wings. In authentic English stylings, this is a soccer pub - so don't be surprised to find soccer on the television or a rowdy crowd if there's a match on. Worth the visit for lunch, dinner, or games!

Drinks & Nightlife
Live jazz most every night of the week for some 30 years running. This is a staple to the Indianapolis music scene. If you like dive bars or jazz music you would be remiss to miss this one!

Great bar with good food. I would consider it an upscale dive bar, which makes the cornhole tables and drink specials worth the visit. Very charactered, but clean and organized.
