Twenty Tap 5408 N. College Ave 317-602-8840
Twenty Tap, with 38 beers on tap (I know, I know; the name stuck before the number of taps was finalized). Many of the beers are Indiana local brews, with regional Michigan, Chicago, and nearby offerings supplemented by others from the coasts, Colorado, and
Europe. Beer types range from hoppy IPAs
to lagers, stouts, ciders, and oddities. Selections change often.
Twenty Tap also has great food with something for everyone. They have an impressively good selection of
burgers, including traditional beef, veggie, chicken, and turkey burgers. We like the Wrath and the Tex, but the
classic is a simple, outstanding cheeseburger—and all are good with homemade, crispy fries. The blackened
whitefish sandwich packs a spicy punch, which is nicely tempered if you have
the good fortune to enjoy the sweet potato bisque as the soup of the day. The entrée salads or the simple side salad
are always fresh and take advantage of seasonal produce. The cheese curds are decadent, and they’re
large enough to share … try to finish an order yourself and you'll likely be too full to eat anything
else! Twenty Tap takes pride in sourcing
local ingredients, and prices are affordable.
Barking Dog 15 E. 49th St 317-924-2233
A little bit of New England seaside seafood in the midwest. After leaving Boston and the ocean behind, we were thrilled to find this little sun-bleached bit of beach culture. White clam chowder and red seafood chowder are outstanding. Oysters, clams, and shrimp are flown in fresh and prepared expertly. On those rare occasions we venture beyond these menu selections, all the sandwiches have been tasty and the deserts are a treat.
Jazz Kitchen 5377 N College Ave 317-253-4900
<i>The</i> place for Jazz in Indy. Hopping bar, particularly on weekends. Well regarded New Orleans style kitchen. During the conference, Cool City Swing Band, Ratliff Big Band, and Latin Night fill the stage, with late-night B-side shows listed as well on the calendar.
Patachou 8697 River Crossing Boulevard 317-815-0765
There are four locations of this locally beloved hangout: the website links you to them all, including downtown and the airport.
Yats 5363 North College Ave 317-253-8817
Cajun creole crazy, they say. We had a Yats outpost in West Lafayette for, like, two hours, and we miss it dearly. Check the webpage for other locations.
Upland Brewery Tasting Room 4842 N. College Ave 317-602-3931
Local tasting room of the Bloomington-based brewery.
Luna Music 5202 North College Ave 317-283-5862
Great local record store. We mourn the closing of the Mass Ave location, and Indy CD & Vinyl doesn't look like it'll be open in time for the conference.
