I didn't know it was pirate themed prior to coming, which was interesting. I don't understand it, but I'm sure there is a reasoning. We placed our order at the front quickly, and had our food out fast. We were able to find a table easily. The place wasn't too loud, and felt clean. We had a 1/2 brisket sandwich with coleslaw and rolls, as well as "The captain", which we both greatly enjoyed. The brisket wasn't anything out of the world, but for the price I'm impressed by how much we get. The slaw was great- a mayo based sauce. The rolls had a nice garlic taste. The fries were crispy, and had plenty of toppings. Overall, for the price of barbecue now a days, I'm impressed and will come back. Two barbecue meals, and two canned alcohol beverages for $45, along with good service and fun atmosphere is hard to find these days.

So you don't have to go through the restaurant if you dont want to. Its dark and moody in all the best ways. I was warmly greeted by the bartenders. I took a seat at the actual bar even though they had plenty of seating. I was super impressed with the cocktail list. All the drinks sounded delicious . I asked the bartender for suggestions. I decided to go for the Key Lime martini. Beautiful presentation and it tasted just like a key lime pie. My friend ordered the spicy margarita. It came in a cool, skull glass. Overall, very impressed with the drinks and the service. Will definitely be coming back to try more of their speciality cocktails.

We got a meal for eight and took two boxes of leftovers home We ate at the outside picnic tables. We had table side service with runners bringing us sides in serving bowls as well small trays and larger round trays for the adults. All of our meal trays were HOT! The slaw was five star from all including everyone who "doesn't like slaw." There are three sauces. Everyone had their favorite. All are good. I went back in after the fam left to refill my water for the ride home. WHAT? Brunswick stew and pork rinds? I was offered a sample of the stew and snagged the last bag of rinds (even bad rinds are better than no rinds, right?) I was offered a sample of the Brunswick (all the meats, a little corn, Lima, potatoes, bbq sauce, tomato's). This is a a low-key restaurant. Great service. My favorite pulled pork, Mac and cheese (which I do not eat, but tasted just for you), law that was universally, loved, and overall excellent sides, and dishes. Great service indoors, or outdoors. Yes, I'm coming back. If not just for a bag of pork rinds the best I've ever had! Ambience indoor outdoor. Not four star service or serving but a perfect picnic site with excellent service. Try it it's been around for a long time. I took too long to do this one!

My husband and I shared a 3 meat plate. We had the brisket, pulled pork and ribs. Our sides were mac and cheese, corn pudding, and hush puppies. All of the food was good! The hush puppies were perfectly sized and crispy. All of the meat was great. The Mac and cheese was super creamy and cheesy . My favorite was the pickle slices and sweet tea though. Overall, I highly recommend. I just wish I had saved room for the cherry cobbler because it did look yummy!

Back in December of 2025. I became a customer of Banters. The reason I started with that is because…read morejust this past Tuesday I cooked my last of 2 roast, that I bought along with a tenderloin filet, a pound of boneless chicken breast and 4 pounds of ground beef. It had been some time since I finished off the last of the ground beef. I buried my last roast in my freezer under other frozen items and forgot about it. A week ago I had to purge much of the foods in my freezer and rediscovered the roast. So I decided I should cook it. When I opened the wrap containing my roast, I was delightfully surprised! Not only was it not showing any signs of discoloration, rotting smell or freezer burn, it was blood red as if I had just purchased it. I cooked it low and slow in my oven and after five hours I added the vegetable. It was amazing and delicious. It was just a 2 pounds of chuck roast. I ate it 4 days in a row finishing it off. Honestly, I wished there was more. The purpose of my share is; not only are the butchers friendly, swift and kind. The meat, every bit was absolutely pure, no processing, no Mc Donald type slurry added, no fillers, just REAL, GOOD, QUALITY MEAT. Worth every penny. It's easy to see why the comments and ratings, before mine are mostly five stars (you can literally see the 5 stars busting at the seams) and raving about the service, the quality and freshness. Just like meat was as I was growing up and the way all meat should be. If you're new, or reviewing Banters before shopping them. I highly recommend their shop. Go in and buy one item and see for yourself. You'll be glad you did. We all deserve meat that is healthy, delicious and nutritious, like what we grew up eating. So... "what are you waiting for"? One more thing; they accept SNAP. Bon Appetite!

I genuinely don't think I've ever had better ketchup and I ask every time if I can take home a whole vat of it. My husband always gets the spicy Mexicali burger and says it's the perfect balance of spicy and savory. It's always cooked well and consistently full of flavor. The portions are also really good for the price, which makes it an easy go to for us. I love the three cheese garlic burger, but fair warning, it comes with what feels like nine garlic cloves on top. I usually end up pulling them off after they drop the burger at the table because the flavor is already soaked into the burger anyway. The fries are a solid 10 out of 10, and the service is always great. It's just an easy, reliable spot for a good burger and a relaxed night out.

We walked in and were seated quickly, even though we arrived a little earlier than our reservation. Our server was Tad M and he was awesome! He answered my questions and gave me some great suggestions. I ordered an espresso martini and my husband ordered a Tiger Tea. The drinks arrived quickly and were really good. We started out with French Onion Soup and it was very good. I decided to order the Whiskey Chicken and my husband ordered the Hoosier Hot Plate. Our food arrived and it looked great! We were both really happy with our food, it was prepared perfectly! Tad checked on us a few times to make sure we were having a great time. This restaurant was really cute inside, I loved the lights and the old pictures displayed. This was my first time in Noblesville, and I'm so glad I chose Grindstone Public House. We live a good 45 minutes away, but if we get tickets to shows at Ruoff, we will definitely be back!

My wife and I were loyal customers of Grindstone Public House for six years, going every single…read moreweekend without missing one--more than 300 weekends. Last Christmas alone, I purchased $1,000 in Grindstone gift cards, and we've routinely tipped the bartenders 30-40% because the bar staff has always treated us extremely well. Unfortunately, after six years, that relationship has come to an end. We had brought Grindstone three cocktail recipes we enjoy--two from a favorite restaurant in Illinois and one based on the Liquid Love Affair from 1933 Lounge in Fishers. Management eventually created a special POS button for our cocktails and charged $10.50 each. We were recently informed that ownership had decided to increase those drinks to $15 each--a 43% increase overnight. I understand prices increase. Had they gone to $11 or $12, I wouldn't have thought twice about it. What I found unreasonable was charging $15--the same price as Grindstone's signature cocktails--for recipes we supplied ourselves. One of those drinks is based on the Liquid Love Affair from 1933 Lounge. I can literally walk from my house to 1933 Lounge and purchase the actual cocktail for $15. Why would I drive 20 minutes to Noblesville and pay the same price for Grindstone's version? We were also told a dirty martini at Grindstone is $13. This wasn't about being unable to afford another $4.50. Someone buying $1,000 in gift cards and tipping 30-40% isn't being financially devastated by a few dollars. It was about how six years of loyalty was treated. What happened afterward was equally disappointing. After I posted reviews elsewhere describing our experience, Grindstone publicly responded, acknowledged our six years and 300+ weekends of loyalty, specifically acknowledged the 43% increase, and asked me to email management so we could have a "meaningful conversation" and they could have the opportunity to "make this right." I did exactly what they asked. Three days later, I had received no response, and Grindstone had deleted its public response asking me to contact management. I retained a screenshot of that response. The bartenders deserve none of the criticism here. They've always treated us wonderfully, and they're the part of Grindstone we'll genuinely miss. There are simply too many locally owned restaurants and bars whose owners work hard to earn and retain loyal customers. Another local restaurant owner has already gone out of his way to stock the liquor necessary to make our cocktails and charges $12 for them. Grindstone didn't lose two six-year customers because we couldn't afford another $4.50. They lost two six-year customers because of how six years of loyalty was handled--and unfortunately, management's response afterward only reinforced our decision.
