I was in Rush County in my quest to spend some time in each of the 92 counties in Indiana and "get…read morea feel for" the respective communities. Part of that is to take a look at the county courthouse, their library system, and any notable natural spaces in the area. I also do some research on the restaurants, coffeeshops, bakeries or other signature spots that might be in the area. One such spot was Fish Moon Brewing. First off - great name. It's fun, quirky, and they used the moon motif throughout their space (pun intended). As for the restaurant itself, this is my kind of place. Open, with subdued lighting, and just enough of the moon paraphernalia to keep you interested without being overwhelming. It reminded me of a German beer hall - in a good way. I opted for the Portobello mushroom & Swiss burger, which had a rich flavor, and I didn't miss a bite. It was served up with their pub chips, which were just perfect. I had a wonderful beer, too, which was a twin berry and just the right blend of flavor. What's more, it worked well for the hot afternoon. I was a little confused about the beer selection, however. When I asked about what beers they offered, my server just listed them off. I generally like having an opportunity to take a look at a list and see if there is something I haven't tried before, especially when visiting for the first time. That would be my only critique: to have a current list of your beers and maybe a little description. All told, this is a gem for Rushville and it's placed in a great location. Highly recommended.

This is more like a three and a half star place but we had some definite issues with our recent…read morevisit. We drive from East of Indy to Rushville expecting a nice date night. The place was fairly busy, and the musician was setting up. We were seated at the bar because we were hungry and thought, in error apparently, that the service would be quicker. The Fish Moon beer was pretty good so we both got a glass of a lager type beer. The appetizer (poppers) were served fairly quickly and I thought they would good ... not too hot/spicy. Our order was a burger and catfish sandwich with onion rings. It was a really really long wait to get our food... we had been there for 90 minutes before the entree was delivered. Our bar seats were at the end of the bar... every time someone walked in or out of the kitchen (30 feet behind us) or anywhere near the bar the floor shook like there were elephants passing by.... it was unnerving. One nice thing was that the music was pretty good. However, given the lack of good service and mediocre food, my SO will never go back.

This burger may be the best in Central Indiana. I come here once a week (ish) to get the burger and…read moresidewinder fries. The service is incredible, with a super friendly staff, and it's a cool vibe too. Highly recommend hopping on 40 and trying this place out. Such a hidden gem!

We were in the area for the (in)famous National Road/Route 40 Yard Sales and wanted a cold drink…read moreand something to eat. On entering around 1:30 pm on a Thursday, there were two couples standing at the unattended "please wait to be seated" sign, and I observed about half the tables in the front dining room had guests; the other half were covered with dirty dishes. Not wanting to spend an excessive amount of time, I peeked around the corner and observed two open seats at the small bar, so we took them instead. We had to move a dirty plate and glass over to the end of the bar. After about six minutes of sitting there with no bartender appearing we decided to just get a drink, and go elsewhere later for food. Finally a gal approached us, and it seemed that she was the only staff member on duty for both dining rooms and the bar. She was nice enough, but it was disappointing that she couldn't have just removed the dirty dishes which were six inches from my husband's elbow, not to mention the bar wasn't wiped down. The dishes were still there when we left. We caught her passing through after a while to ask for the tab, which was $7.77. My husband put down a $20 bill and she brought back $12.00. Now I realize some places are in a state of panic hysteria over "penny shortages" but you don't just round UP a guest's tab and certainly not by almost a quarter. Some places give you a discount for cash; this one penalizes you. The decor is nice, rustic and countrified. I don't know how the food is obviously. As we were leaving I noticed the front dining room tables still hadn't been cleared and we were there about 20 minutes.
