Brewlink provides an easy dinner location when we visit my inlaws in Indianapolis. In addition to being convenient, it's also a major hit with my daughter who can't get enough of their mac and cheese (which is likely just classic kraft mac if I'm correct). For the grownups though, they have a variety of beer options - from a well balanced scotch ale to a easy \-drinking hefeweizen with banana clove. They also offer a Downeast cider for cider drinkers. There's some standard brewpub fare, my go-to is the fish tacos but with a side of tater tots, both slap. The fish , probably cod, is crispy with a thin batter. The cabbage, pico de gallo and Baja sauce round it out. The tator tots are a perfectly crispy and savory accompaniment.
A pretty good brewpub to hit after the game.... Or instead of going to the game or just to have eats and a beer. Better than usual menu for a brewpub. Service was good..... parking on site.
This is a hidden little place in the heart of downtown that I would have otherwise missed if not meeting here with a group. We arrived right at opening for brunch for quick service. Our group of 8 was well accounted for and the kitchen worked quickly to accommodate all of us. It's a nicely decorated space and they even have their own parking lot! We came here as a surprise birthday brunch for one of our friends, and they allowed us to bring our own balloons and cake. I ordered... Brew Brisket Chili Mac and Cheese ($13): this is a huge bowl of Mac with all the works. Though I wish there was a little more brisket, it is surely packed with flavor and all the fixings. And yet, I found it to reach the perfect level of satiation for me. I don't remember all the toppings, so please forgive me there, but I think that it all culminates together very well. I love that I've found a new place for downtown outings! I will also say, at least at the time of posting, they have kept their prices fairly low compared to similar restaurants in the city. Another plus!
Criminally underrated and under appreciated brewery in downtown Indy. My review: you need to go here. Brew Link is amazing and not enough people are talking about it. The beers are great. They have so many good beers. They brew some unique flavors, too. And they work. I love their Marshmallow IPA. So many breweries stopped making wacky and fun beers after COVID. Brew Link still goes. Next... their food. The beer alone is good enough to mandate a visit, but so is the food. They have so many delicious smoked meats. I've had the brisket chili Mac and the pulled pork sandwich. Both were just amazing. They have a pretty big menu for a brewery, too. There is something for everyone. The service is great too. I have come with huge groups for Trivia and they do what they can to seat us together. All the wait staff is so friendly. It's very beautiful inside, too. There's a wooden modern look and you can see the brewing equipment through glass walls. 11/10 you NEED to try Brew Link. Great beers, great food, amazing staff, amazing vibes. GO TO BREW LINK NOW.
This was my first time trying this restaurant. My coworker told me about their tacos. Let me just say, these tacos were great. you have a choice between beef or chicken. It comes with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and salsa. For dessert, we tried the chocolate chip waffle, à la mode. It's a waffle dessert that's taste like a cookie. It's semi-hard & semi-soft and crunchy. Personally, I think the dessert was okay, however, if you try the dessert I'd recommend you try it with a glass of milk.
For only my second restaurant visit since cancer surgery, I joined fellow Yelp Elite Wanda M. after a clinic appointment for which she provided transportation. I'm still fairly limited in terms of mobility and really only get out when someone else is providing the transportation for now. Brew Link is a 2-location brewery with the first being in Plainfield, Indiana. This location has a much broader bar selection and took over the spot from another brewery. I'd never been here prior to today and was anxious to snag a Yelp review and also just plain get out of the house. There's parking on the side of the building, though for wheelchair users the only entry option is at the street entrance. You can technically get in the door on the side, but there are steps to get to the actual dining area. The ambience is what I'd call urban industrial with a touch of kitsch. Many of their beers have fun names and there are entertaining graphics at different places throughout Brew Link. There is a family friendly area for dining. There's also a bar area that is 21+ and it's clearly marked. During better weather, they do have an outside patio area. Once inside, all but one platformed area is accessible - however, most of the actual bar is high-top. Brew Link does have an extensive alcohol menu, though they do also serve soft drinks and both sweet and unsweetened iced tea. The food menu is fairly typical for a bar, though it's also pretty extensive. I'm not being too adventurous these days due to my health changes, though I did eat a bigger meal than usual these days by ordering their Brewhouse Classic Burger with tots. The Brewhouse Classic is your basic cheeseburger, though I was able to order it without cheese without getting a dirty look. The burger was cooked to order, medium well, and was a hefty chunk of beef. I really enjoyed this burger. The tots were also delicious. It was a healthy sized order, though not decadent. I was full, though not completely stuffed. The atmosphere is loud, though Wanda and I were able to enjoy a conversation without difficulty. She's somewhat of a regular here and was far more familiar with how things worked. Our server, I believe his name was Angelo, was top-notch. He was attentive without being intrusive and quite personable. I actually did use the restroom while here - in terms of accessibility, the entry door is rather heavy. However, once inside it's pretty roomy with a stall that has three grab bars. There are also two urinals. I found it mostly accessible, though those with a weak upper body may struggle and larger chairs may be a bit more challenged. My lightweight manual chair was fine. I'm not quite willing to go five-star, though this was a super solid 4-star experience and quite pleasant from beginning to end. There's no doubt I will return.
What a fall from grace. This place used to be amazing. The new kitchen can't cook a burger to save their life. Last 5 or so times, were either served raw meat or a shoe. I brought it up several times, but it falls on deaf ears. No apology, discount, or offer to remake it. They served us raw ground beef I had to eat around. See for yourself.
Nice spot to hang out with friends, get some food, and try some new-to-us beers. I appreciate the free parking (lot) especially since we were downtown. Shout out to our server on her third day. She was great! Favorites included the fried pickles and Ivory - a white stout!
I live only about a mile from this gym and had no idea it existed. I was having some work done on my car down the street and came in for a little work time and some lunch. I ate at the bar. The bartender was helpful with selectionsand was friendly to talk to you. The is big and inviting with a fireplace that was not on as it was nearly 80° that day. I had the general tso cauliflower and a chicken salad that the bartender suggested I order grilled as opposed to crispy. Served with a delicious honey mustard dressing, the two items were a perfect blend for a rather large lunch.
3.67* (out of 5) Food: n/a Atmosphere: 3* Value: 4* Service: 4* 10/21/2023 We were staying downtown along the canal and this place was near the bus stop where we got off to walk to the place we were staying...so of course we had to stop for a flight to sample their beers. It was right at closing time, but the owner and server were gracious enough to pour us a flight (see picture of mine). I found each of the beers in the flight to be above average to my tasting, so will definitely return to try some more on a future trip. They also offered a Sunday morning brunch which sounded very interesting, but we decided to get to the Colts game early, so didn't have a chance to try it on this trip. While the tap list is relatively short (see picture), each of the beers they offer are unique - full of character and great flavor.

Brew link is still one of our go-to places when we're downtown! We recently revisited last weekend and we still received great service and enjoyed delicious food. We still enjoyed the fried cauliflower as an app, and I had the boneless honey chipotle wings, and my husband had the mushroom & Swiss burger. read more

I sat at the bar when I came here for lunch and quick service and a very friendly bartender. The boneless wings were great. And cheese curds were 9/10. I would love to see them do a spicy version as well! Can't wait to come back to try more food and drinks. read more

The bathroom was astonishingly disgusting. The bathroom faucet was crystallized and green. It had a very bad odor emitting from it. I felt like I needed a hazmat suit to enter this bathroom. Why is it so filthy? Especially for a restaurant bathroom. read more

Food and service is top tier. I was skeptical on the mac and cheese burger, but it was amazing. I also get it prepared medium and to my my surprise, it was actually medium and not over cooked, 10/10 read more

We stopped in here on a Saturday evening before we went to the hockey game. And it was pretty good. We got the cheese curds and they were pretty solid. Got a nice big burger. And it was rather tasty as well. My wife enjoyed her sandwich and mac & cheese. Also service was good. Ambience was cool. Had nice TVs all around we enjoyed ourselves. I would recommend it. read more

I stopped in here on a Saturday afternoon. They seemed pretty clearly understaffed. I was only there to read a book, have a beer, and enjoy some time. I sat for nearly 20 minutes before I had to wave down a server and ask for a menu/beer. I wonder if it wasn't clear whose table I was seated at? I had the Mexican lager: Primo. It was a solid beer! I also ordered the pretzel sticks, which were fabulous with the beer cheese dip. I knew I attention was a problem, so I had to get more attention just to pay my bill. The decor and vibe was your basic modern-brewery, which is fine with me. The price was okay, but the location is pretty mid. Will I be back? Probably not. read more

It's my first time trying Brew Link Brewing, the ambiance of the place is relaxing and inviting. I got the chicken and waffles, it's tasty and the portion is just right. I didn't have to get an appetizer, the service was excellent! Told the server we were celebrating one of our friend's birthday and she was nice, pleasant, and polite. We had a great time and will be back again and recommend coming here for brunch too. read more

My buddy and I stopped in here for a dinner meeting and we're not disappointed. We walked in and we're greeted by a friendly hostess. The place felt very much like a standard bar with some modern touches. After we got sat we ordered put our drink orders and appetizers in! We got the friend pickles and southwest egg rolls. Loved both of them. The breading on the fried pickles was fantastic. Only issue is I felt like the portion size was small. Our food came out in a decent time. I ordered the wrap and he orders the burger. My wrap was good and full of flavor. He really loved his burger and loved the fries! Overall the service was decent, food was decent and the price was reasonable. I'll be back! read more

Great spot with a good selection of beer varieties. For food I only had an app of fried pickles, which were decent but nothing g special. The bartender was nice, but slower than I would have expected given how slow it was on this Tuesday afternoon. Seemed more interested in chatting with the servers than actually serving the handful of us at the bar. Cool laid back vibe. I would go again and check out the "real" food if I'm ever in Indy again. read more

We've been fans of Brewlink since they were located downtown Plainfield. After they were forced to move due to the new apartment construction, they moved west of Plainfield in Oak Tree Golf course on US 40. This location is still open and thriving with a large, dog friendly patio and outdoor area. The next expansion was downtown Indy on N. Capital Street. Brewlink downtown has a free parking lot and a small patio. The interior is cute with the various colorful beer posters above the bar. There is a small fireplace, tall top tables with a mixture of a few 6 and 8-top tables. The bar serves cocktails as well as their own craft brews plus canned domestic beers. The large bar is attractive, with fun bartenders and servers, plus you can dine at the bar. On Colt's Sunday, they have D. J. and checkout Wednesday Triva nights. Brewlink serves brunch on Saturday and Sundays. The menu has many delicious options from appetizers (wings, brisket chili queso, yum), excellent beer braised chili, and mouthwatering salads with the Strawberry Fields salad or the Black and Bleu salad being two of my favorites. If you enjoy a good burger, you won't be disappointed with their selection. The Classic Burger is my husband's go-to, and I enjoy the BBQ Pulled Pork Burger, Black and Bleu Burger, and many enjoy the Hangover Burger. With close to 20 different types of sandwiches, it's hard to make a decision. The Mac n cheese options are very popular or the tacos or protein bowls. We have so many favorites here. It's hard to choose. Tuesday night, we brought friends here for $2 Taco Tuesday. Chicken and beef are the protein options topped with cheese, lettuce, and salsa. My husband ordered 4 beef tacos, and our friend ordered 2 beef and 1 chicken. His wife ordered the beef chili queso over tarter tots. I ordered the Texas BBQ Brisket sandwich with loaded tots. Loved every bite of it. Our beverages included Imagine Larger, a flavorful Old Fashion, a Long Island, and Miller Lite. They both thought the food was delicious and a fair price for the quality and generous portions. Our server was a little off Tuesday evening. Yes, it was busy, but she forgot a couple of drink orders, and the Beef Chili Queso first arrived over French fries when it should have been tarter tots. All was corrected, so eventually, all was well. Service is usually right on the money. Stop in! You want be disappointed. read more
We had dinner here on a Friday night after a work event that involved appetizers so I didn't want anything too heavy, and was happy to see they had some lighter sounding salads on the menu. I had the mandarin chicken salad and it was really good; the greens were fresh, the chicken was plentiful and the dressing went nicely with the oranges and almonds. The Lucid IPA was excellent! I'll be back for that and definitely want to try other menu items too. The atmosphere was relaxed and the televisions were plentiful but not too loud so it was easy to visit. Service was good and there is even a parking lot which is a bonus downtown. We will all definitely be back! read more

We first ate at this place when they first opened, and they have great burgers, fries, tots and Mac n cheese. Had gotten the bbq pulled pork burger with tots and they gave it to me with fries at first but after letting my server know, he corrected and brought a big tray of tots, fiancé got a pork tenderloin it was okay he said it was a little dry I have finally tried their hole in one beer and it's amazing! I recommend the blueberry over the raspberry hole in one beer flavor but you must try both Staffs are friendly and it's a little bit loud inside as they seem to seat larger group than your usual 2s and 4s in a table definitely a good place to try read more

This is a very trendy upbeat brewery/restaurant located just inside the downtown area. It has its own ample sized parking lot, which is gold for being a downtown restaurant and there is also metered parking available on the street, if their lot was full or you just felt like paying for parking. It is an active brewery. You can actually see the distilling machines behind a glass as you walk in. The place has bar and dining area seating with a fireplace in the middle. I dined at the bar. They have a full service bar and I liked their colorful wooden signs that had the beer selections on them. There was some good fun characters on there. There is also an outdoor patio that is available to eat and drink on during warmer weather. I was there in February so it was closed off, but still had the furniture out there. FYI, you can bring the littles to eat with you in the dining area or patio, when open. They have televisions set up at the bar and around the dining area. They also have music playing in the background as you drink and dine. The place is very clean. The have a menu filled with typical pub food like burgers, mac & cheese variations, sandwiches, salads, chicken and barbecue. The staff there is very friendly and my bartender/server was very attentive and kept my lemonade filled (which is my pet peeve). I ordered the Black n Blu burger with fries. It took about 10 to 15 minutes for me to get my food. There was a ton of food, I could barley eat it all. It tasted decent, but I have had better and have definitely had much worse. This place has an awesome vibe and is very spacious inside. I enjoyed the time I spent there. The atmosphere is very chill and they have a decent section of drinks and food to choose from. I highly recommend checking this place out. I will definitely be back, but will probably give another one of thier entrees a shot. read more
The art and decor would not usually be a first mention in a good review, but it is noteworthy at Brew Link. The atmosphere is inspiring and you will find yourself relaxing and taking in the lighting, large graphic designs of framed beer art and the large windows. They also have a very nice outdoor seating area. I think dining out is an experience, and they managed to make me smile at all the small details. I loved our attentive waitress, she explained the menu well. I loved that we got paper straws instead of plastic with our drinks. The avocado wrap had perfect flavor and light crunch. The Mac n cheese was flavorful, but a little zingy. I loved it, but with the spicey flavor, I would not order it for kids. The waffle. Whoa. Split with one other person and it was great. Please note it is not soft, it is more of a hard dense waffle. Mildly burnt flavor that reminiscent of campfire. This was epic lunch find. Good parking too, not as crowded as Mass Ave area. read more
Went to Brew Link Brewing last week and really enjoyed it. Both the lunch and brunch menu was available and there were so many choices! The Texas BBQ brisket sandwich was amazing. Covered in bbq and queso and the brisket was super tender. My husband got the chicken and waffles with a side of the breakfast potatoes and it was also delicious. Our server was friendly and attentive. It was also kid-friendly, which I always appreciate! Can't wait to also check out the Plainfield location. read more
I hadn't been to this location in over 2 years. Back then it was a different brewery (I don't remember the name). Apparently they called it quite and then someone else came in and Brewlink was born. They make a wide variety of beers. Most interesting is the number of sours they carry. The blueberry donut sour ale is very good. The food menu also looked pretty good to me so I'll have to drop in for lunch some day. Bonus: all growler fills are only $10 on Sundays (usually $12-16). read more
Stopped in on a Monday afternoon while enjoying the canal walk. Only a few blocks from the canal. Menu has a good variety. We got the buffalo cauliflower wrap and tofu tacos. Everything tasted great. They were busy but service was good and the waiter was moving as fast as he could. I don't drink beer so can't comment on them, but they do have flights of beer if you want to try a variety. read more

Is the downtown Brew Link location kid-friendly (good for under 21)?
Yes, I have seen kids and families at Brew Link. It is a family oriented environment. You will be fine bringing your children.
