Jumbo Pretzel
Jared C.

Went here with some coworkers while in the area. Was pretty empty when we came (on a Friday at 3pm) I just got a pretzel and it was pretty good! Waitress was nice, attentive, did a good job with the larger table. Inside was very unique and pub-like; wood walls with many rooms. Would come back!

True pub vibes. The vegan BLT with seitan bacon and thin onion rings were filling & delicious.

Menu 4 - Dec 2025

Since I don't live in Indy, it's been awhile since I've had a chance to stop by, but I still think it's an underrated great option for food or drinks. As areas like Broadripple get trendy, you tend to lose the character places. This isn't a place that is going to take over TikTok or Instagram with a viral post or some photo op spot. But they will serve you good food and drinks. I stopped by when they opened on a Sunday, so it wasn't overly crowded. I don't remember them having a Baby Guiness shot when I last visited, but I was pleasantly surprised by its inclusion in the menu. The last time I was able to find a bartender who knew what that was was 20 years ago in Ireland. The scotch egg burger was as good as I remembered and the onion rings almost had me licking the plate. Definitely recommend both.

I can't believe I have driven walked, and ran pass this place for years and just decided to check it out. The inside is smaller than I expected and so is the bar seating. Outside patio was poopin' but the inside was pretty quiet, which was great for me. I am a fan of dark beers and the ones I tried were fantastic. I can definitely see myself going more and next time trying some food, the personal pan pizza looked delicious.

BBQ Chicken Sandwich
Phil B.

I can see why we haven't eaten here in probably over a decade. Food was decent not great not bad. Not really memorable. Bbq chicken was pretty basic. Spinach melt I ask for crispy bacon I got almost crispy. Fries were good. Service a bit slow for the number of people eating. The Knick knacks really need cleaning as do the windows to what I'm guessing is an office area. It just liked dirty unkempt. Very very dark inside and that may be entirely by design. Maybe if you're a beer drinker this place may be entirely different to you.

Vegan tenderloin
Bruce F.

Broad Ripple Brewpub deserves credit for embracing plant-based diners with a generous spread of vegan options. I chose their vegan tenderloin and the onion rings as the side accompaniment. The onion rings were seasoned, crunchy and cooked to perfection. The vegan tenderloin was a different story. While the intentions are commendable, execution matters--and that's where the tenderloin fell short. Let's start with the good: THE CRUNCH! The breading had a satisfying crisp that gave the sandwich some much-needed texture. Unfortunately, that's where the excitement ended. The tenderloin itself was dry and underseasoned, leaving the palate searching for something--anything--to latch onto. A little salt, a hint of spice, or even a marinade could've elevated the experience. Not even the pickles, onions and mayo could elevate it from "meh" to memorable. A neighborhood known for its eclectic energy and bold flavors, this sandwich felt timid. Vegan doesn't have to mean bland, and Broad Ripple Brewpub has the opportunity to prove that with a little more culinary courage. Verdict: Crunchy, yes. Flavorful, no. A decent attempt that needs seasoning, moisture, and a bit more pizzaz I'll definitely be trying this place again but checking out their other vegan options.

Fish and Chips
Richard P.

Friends were in town from the Elkhart County area. I was tired after a long day, however, the chance to get together with these friends was too good to pass up on. So, we began the search for a dining option honoring their vegan ways and my carnivore tendencies. Broad Ripple Brewpub may not seem like the idea option for a vegan, however, they have a surprising amount of vegetarian and vegan options. I knew parking would be an option here, though I hadn't realized Broad Ripple was hosting an art fair this weekend. I arrived with concerns that I'd be unable to find anything. However, fairly quickly I found an accessible spot along the Monon Trail. There's a row of three spots right across from La Piedad - about a block down from the Brewpub. Broad Ripple Brewpub offers both indoor and outdoor options. After figuring out that my friends were already inside, we all gathered in a quiet, dimly light corner. Amidst the chaos that was Broad Ripple, I was surprised how quiet it was and how much we could enjoy conversation and dinner. As you enter, you turn to the right and head toward a small hosting area. It's a narrow hallway. Like many businesses in Broad Ripple, it appears this is an old house turned into a restaurant. While everything is narrow, my guess is that some thought has been put into design because I could easily get where I needed to be. I will admit that when I'm dining with passionate vegans, I'm as respectful as I can be while also honoring the fact I'm not vegan. So, I switched from my usual burger and moved over fish and chips (Yes, probably in a vegan's eyes there's no difference but it feels less "in your face" to me). Broad Ripple Brewpub was started by John Hill and his wife, Nancy. Nancy is a native Hoosier. John is from U.K. and has clearly designed the pub with an eye toward authenticity with its dark wood, fireplace, tin ceiling, and stained glass windows. (I think one table thought I was staring at them - in reality, I love these windows). Our server, whose name I didn't quite catch, was excellent throughout. She was present without being intrusive. I had multiple iced tea refills because my friends and I were lingering. I never got the sense of being pushed out. Most of the pub was busy outside - it was a nice day. The inside was less full and that allowed us to really linger. The management had previously contacted me to let me know that the restrooms are relatively accessible. They do regularly have customers who are wheelchair users. I checked and, yes, I think most can do fine with the restrooms. If you're very dependent on assistance, it might be a bit of a chore but most will do fine. The food was good across the board. I can't remember everything my group ordered, however, I do know there was a pub chip appetizer (we didn't quite register that pub chips would be included with meals). We had me with fish and chips, one with vegan tenderloin, one with tenderloin, and a couple other options. At least two of us, myself included, needed to grab a "to go" box. My meal included two large pieces of fish, pub chips (other sides could have been chosen), and a small thing of cole slaw that I enjoyed. What can I say? I just really enjoyed this experience. I loved that we could linger. I loved the quieter, more intimate ambience. I loved the quiet yet steady service. Pricing has gone up for sure since my previous review, however, it's still competitive and a solid value for the amount of food received. I loved the iced tea refills (I believe they still use Hubbard & Craven for tea). Of course, I loved the company I was with but I really loved that I could enjoy this company. While Broad Ripple sometimes gets a bad wrap these days, this was a sublime experience and a great reminder that there are some major gems in Broad Ripple. In terms of access, they have a small parking lot that doesn't really offer access unless you aim for an end spot. There are three ADA compliant spots a block away and I utilized one of them. Curb cuts have improved in this area. There's a little bit of a weird angle to get on the sidewalk of the pub, however, it's pretty low to the ground and very workable. I had no problem functioning inside or outside. The patio is dog-friendly. This was a near perfect end to a tiring yet rewarding day. So, Broad Ripple Brewpub is being moved up to a 5-star.

Scotch Egg Burger with Pub Chips
Matheuski C.

Great food enjoyed on an outdoor patio. Plenty of options for various diets and drinkers. The service was attentive and patient with our party. A great place to grab dinner with friends or family!

Scotch Egg Burger
Scott W.

This place came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. We needed a place to accommodate our dog and a variety of diners. Their covered patio area is lovely. They made our dog feel welcome and the food was great also! Unlike most restaurants where vegetarian and vegan options are an afterthought, here there were a plethora of options. Meanwhile, the carnivores of our party also had lots of choices. Of note were multiple people who enjoyed the generous portion of fish and chips. The highlight was a Scotch Egg Burger which was delicious and so interesting. We will definitely return in future trips to Indy!!!

We got there early and were able to have some drinks and food, including the nachos. Man, I was not expecting BBQ sauce and like a mustardy sauce and cheese and it was flavor exploding, loved it. With the event we had catered pork/chicken as well as sides. Everything was great, the peppercorn dressing for the salad was so amazing, I would definitely think of a salad here in the future. The venue inside the space, with the car, is quaint with seating and you get to see everything happening outside the space as well. This last time, we were in the original Guggman Haus brewing building that houses the coffee. This is adorable! We had service the entire time, including a bartender and the beer. They made everything super easy and I would consider this space for a baby shower, bridal shower, etc. We had 25 people and it fit wonderfully. There is also outside space for overflow, so it makes it very reasonable. Now onto the beer! I had the IPA Riverside, very hazy with a great flavor. Then I went off the rocker and ordered some prickly pear drink, I was not expecting how good that was! Refreshing and light, easy to drink (probably too easy) and the flavor was perfect! Try it if you are there, it is a newer option. PROS: Parking easy, street and lot Many open spaces and areas to rent Games are included, so eat, drink and enjoy company They have trivia nights, woohoo CONS: Sometimes the food is not always a hit, nothing to state specifically today, but I recall in the past saying to myself, don't order that again. So, try everything and find what you like. The place is great and the beer/food options are good, so you will find something you like.

The brewery is housed inside a beautifully restored church, and walking in for the first time is worth the visit alone. The soaring ceilings, stained glass, and original architecture make for one of the coolest brewery spaces I've been to around Indianapolis. We stopped in during the early afternoon, so it was nice and quiet. We were greeted right away, and our server was incredibly friendly. She walked us through the beer flights, made some great recommendations, and never made us feel rushed. The flights were also surprisingly affordable, which made trying a few different brews an easy decision. For lunch, I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with fries, while my friend went with the Italian sandwich. Both plates were generously portioned, and neither of us left hungry. The pulled pork was tender, flavorful, and piled high on the sandwich, while the fries were perfectly crispy alongside it. Between the quality of the food and the reasonable prices, it felt like an excellent value. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between historic and casual. TVs are scattered throughout if you're catching a game, music plays in the background, and despite the grand setting, it still feels comfortable enough to settle in for a while. Whether you're stopping by for a beer flight, lunch, or just to admire the incredible building, St. Joseph Brewery is well worth adding to your Indianapolis list. I'll definitely be back.

Really wanted to enjoy my experience, but just couldn't. I'd say three is generous (probably closer…read moreto a 2.5 but I normally round up). I've been here once before, and remember the food and service were good, and wanted to return. We came in on a Thursday night, and the place wasn't super busy. First bad part of the night- the host. She acted like she had better places to be. She wore an earbud in her ear throughout the night- extremely rude in a customer service position. We were sat quickly. Our server was somewhat attentive throughout the night, though not the most outwardly friendly person. The place on the inside felt clean, and wasn't too loud. I appreciated how they stock Ash and Elm, as I'm not a big beer drinker, but do enjoy a cider. We started with a full order of beef poutine. It was a large portion for what you pay for, though it was lacking enough cheese curds. The food was lukewarm, almost as thought it had been sitting for too long. The beef had a weird flavor to it. My wife and I split an ale burger and a pork katsu sandwich. The burger was dry and room temp, the cheese formed in place (as thought it was being kept at room temp). Fries were also room temp. Burger didn't have much flavor, and the bun was hard. The pork katsu sandwich lacked flavor. The top toast was soggy, and the bottom piece was hard as a rock. The slaw lacked any taste. Again, theme of the night, was also room temperature. Would have appreciated food being served hot, as all of the food was served lukewarm, though the place wasn't busy. Service wasn't the best, and people acted like they had better places to be. I'm not normally a harsh critic, but too much badness in one meal for me.

I always order the Cuban when a new restaurant has one on the menu, and Big Lug's did not disappoint. It was juicy, flavorful, and one of the better Cubans I've had in a while. On my second visit, I went with the blackened cod tacos on corn tortillas (you can also get flour tortillas, and they offer shrimp and breaded fish options). They were fresh, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. Both visits I ordered the spicy garlic cauliflower, and it was outstanding. The homemade blue cheese dressing took it to another level. If you're on the fence about ordering it, don't be--it was one of my favorite things on the menu. The outdoor walk-up bar creates a really cool, laid-back atmosphere, making it a great place to relax whether you're meeting friends or just enjoying a meal by yourself. The staff was friendly, the service was excellent, and both meals came out quickly. I don't usually eat at the same restaurant twice on a trip, but Big Lug earned it. If I'm back in the area, it'll definitely be on my list again.

Big Lug is a very cool spot right off the Monon, and even better if you have a pooch with you!…read moreUnfortunately, our experience with the service was pretty disappointing. We sat right in the middle of the main thoroughfare and were completely ignored for at least 15 minutes before we finally flagged someone down. The guy, "H," apologized and said, "Oh, my bad--it's all good." We figured, no big deal, let's move on. We ordered pretty simple food, apps and were then going to put in some entrees once apps arrived. We asked for waters and a water bowl for our pups. He brought two waters--with no straws--and no dog bowl. We assumed he was going to grab the bowl, so we waited... and waited. Then I noticed him at the end of the bar leaning against some boxes, texting. So I finally got up, interrupted him and asked for the dog bowl. His response, "oh my bad." Our appetizers came out, and naturally, we asked for silverware. A few minutes later, I spotted "H" in the corner on his phone again. At that point I was thinking, seriously?! So I got up again, interrupted "H's" text convo and asked for silverware. His response again was, "Oh, my bad." I didn't respond to him I just turned around and went back to my seat. Honestly, the whole experience started feeling more like a self-serve restaurant than table service. It's a chill spot and we weren't being needy whatsoever. We never asked for any refills- we were merely asking for the basics. We wanted to order more food, but by that point we were pretty turned off and decided to just get the check. Then came the final straw: my guy had his license and credit card sitting on the table because he hadn't brought his wallet out for our monon trek. When "H" came back with the checkout thing, without question or hesitation - he grabbed the card and swiped it. We didn't even realize what happened until afterward. Maybe that's standard there, but I've never had a server just take my card without asking. Usually you get a "hey do we want to use this card? Or something to confirm. And of course the tip structure is skewed so the min is 20% unless you want to try to figure out to manually enter in 15% (which most ppl don't -incl my guy), so we left 20% and left irritated and still hungry. "H" didn't seem hungover or anything--he just genuinely seemed like he did not not give a shiiiit. We had to get up three separate times to get things we had already requested: the dog bowl, a couple straws, and silverware. (Basics) And a quick note on the 7-Layer Hoss Dip: don't expect seven layers. It comes in a small thick ceramic bowl and was basically beans, guacamole, a tiny bit of corn and some hard cheese on top. Definitely would not recommend it. Way too "beany" and not worth $16 at all. The southwest rolls were decent- very fried tho. Cheesecake Factory's are better ;) The location and dog-friendly atmosphere are great, with the exception of the homeless camp right at their patio entrance, but unfortunately, the service really took away from the experience. Hopefully this was just an off night, because Big Lug has a lot going for it.

From the second we sat down, it was clear that the restaurant was running at full capacity and extremely busy. Despite the clear rush and high volume of customers, Shea handled every single table with remarkable composure, grace, and effortless efficiency. What stood out most was her genuine kindness and warmth. Often, when a dining room is that packed, you expect service to feel rushed or transactional--and understandably so. However, Shea made us feel completely welcomed and prioritized. She took the time to check in on us, made sure our water glasses were never empty, and brought a wonderful, positive energy to the table that completely elevated our dining experience. Her attentiveness under pressure is a rare quality, and it did not go unnoticed. The food throughout our meal was delightful, and the brownie at the end was absolutely fantastic--rich, warm, and the perfect finish to the evening. But as good as the dessert was, the highlight of our entire visit was undeniably the top-tier service provided by Shea. She turned what could have been a standard meal out during a busy shift into an incredible, memorable experience. It is clear that Shea takes tremendous pride in her work and truly cares about hospitality. Employees with her level of dedication, poise, and genuine warmth are hard to come by, and she is a tremendous asset to your team.

IT WAS AMAZING AND SAVED THE MEAL The aioli sauce was not good. Not sure what it was and it was $1.25. The curry ketchup was OUT OF THE WORLD and worth the $1.25 The waitress was nice and did well however I wish she would have noticed the salads untouched and asked if everything was ok. Sure I could have mentioned it but I tend to only mention if asked. Overall the place was beautiful, parking, while expensive ($8 an hour) was easy and I am happy I marked it off my list of places to try.

Went for a business dinner with group of about 8. We sat in the bar area which was nice and it was…read morenot too busy or loud. The beer was good, I tried two different. We ordered cheese curds and baked goat cheese to start. The cheese curds were more like cheese cubes, the batter was light. The baked goat cheese could have used more jam on top. The server was pretty good, after ordering apps though disappeared for a long time and did not come back to check to see if we were ready to order. I got the bacon smash burger and fries. The burger was good but very filling.

Metazoa Brewing has a little bit of everything for everyone…read more Can't speak to their own beers since I don't partake, but they do offer Untitled Arts N/A beers and soft drinks. The bartenders are always helpful with sharing their current offerings. Metazoa is famously dog friendly, and 5% of profits go towards benefitting shelter dogs. They allow dogs inside the premises and have a dog park outside. The seating is a mix of high top and low tables with plenty of space for the whole crew. Ive been here for bingo nights and trivia, which are always a lot of fun. I hope my squad can make it down here again sometime before too long

Full disclosure: I am allergic to pet dander, and this place is basically a dog convention. We are…read moretalking wall to wall, ear to ear, tail to tail dogs everywhere you look. One too many deep breaths in there, and I am down for the count for at least 2 days. So yes, I visited at my own risk, and I regret nothing. We popped in to grab a four-pack of beer for my nephew and ended up sampling a few while we were at it because that is just what you do. The woman who helped us was an absolute gem, so warm and friendly that I genuinely wished I could come back just to see her again (wealth of knowledge). If you go, I hope you get her. NO, I don't remember her name. From what I could take in between trying not to breathe too deeply, this place is wonderful. Tons of space for you and your four-legged best friend, food trucks outside, and a dog park to round it all out. If you are a pet lover without the whole allergy situation holding you back, this is your happy place. Go. Bring the dog. Have a beer. Live your best life.
