Bars & breweries in Indianapolis

Bars and breweries are places to sit down with a drink, eat something simple, and spend an evening with friends or coworkers. Many of the spots listed here offer draft and bottled beer, sandwiches, wings, nachos, pizza and appetizers, and some also host private events or offer takeout and delivery, so you can plan around a group gathering or a meal at home. When choosing one, call ahead and ask whether they take reservations for larger parties and whether the private room or patio is available on your date. Check the hours listed on the page before you go, since kitchens often close earlier than the bar does, and ask whether the food menu is still being served late in the evening.
