    Popped in here to have a Guinness before a concert at The Vogue. We were greeted right away. We sat at the bar. It took the bartender no time to get our order.She was so friendly and attentive our entire visit. The Guinness was tasty! We'll definitely be back!

    Food was great ! If you like easy going bar vibe. They did not have a specific cocktail menu but they have a full service bar so they can make just about anything if you ask. I got a Long Island and it was strong ! Ranch was amazing also ! We also got pretzel bites but forgot to take a photo of them super good with the beer cheese.

    Great spot to hang out and drink in Broad Ripple! There are deals everyday most notable to me is Yuengling (24oz for $5!). The game room is a nice spot to kill time, $1.50/game to use the pool tables. The vibes are great, everyone is having a time.

    This is a cool spot, perfect for watching a game. We came here with a crew on a Saturday and were impressed by the number of TV's as well as pool tables and other games to play. We tried some appetizers and I was particularly impressed by the mozzarella sticks...they were great! I got my drinks at the bar but they did have a server that would bring drinks over and was very attentive. Overall, we had a good time here and there's plenty of seating for those looking to sit and stay a while.

    Nice spot in Broad Ripple to meet friends and hang out. They have 3 pool tables and TVs for games with some arcade games towards the back. I've been here before when live music is playing and it's a good time. Servers and bartenders are friendly, however, we were given the wrong credit card one time and the other customer had our card as well. The server apologized but it was very stressful as we had to cancel our card and wait for a new one. She had the cards in her back pocket as opposed to near the register and I wish she would've at least been more attentive to check the name before cashing out. Regardless, this review is to reflect the bar not the experience with her. The food is great bar food and drink specials are great throughout the week. They also have a Touchtunes machine which we enjoy playing around with.

    I don't mind Broad Ripple Tavern. However, having lived a few blocks from here for 4 years, I've only ever been here twice. And once was before I lived here. So that says something to me. Both times I've been have been for events. The first was a bar-crawl lipsync battle, which my friend won, so I of course was happy here. The 2nd was this past Friday for a Bonaroo trivia event. The space in the back is perfect for events like this. I love that they have two bars, one in the back which is a bit smaller, and a larger one in the front. The stage also made it easy to hear and see the trivia host. There were several servers walking throughout the back area to help take orders, but we did struggle to get their attention and get taken care of. We were able to order some food and got their nachos and chicken fingers. The nachos were okay, I want to go back and give them another shot. They were loaded and had liquid cheese, which is a win in my book. The chicken fingers were a bit dry though. I don't see us coming back here for dinner, but I won't discount the place as a great venue for events like those mentioned.

    Broadripple tavern is a local classic I've come to learn, and I can say I've visited a few times. Located on the corner, down near the alley cat and insomnia cookies you can find broad ripple tavern. It's a pretty large location in my opinion, the front has a good number of tables and a large bar, and the back has pool tables and other bar games plus more places to sit. Large drink selection, your standard beer choices and mixed drinks. They also have food options as well, which I would consider good bar food! They have daily specials you just have to ask, or read up on the menu.. Everyone is also very friendly as well which adds to the experience. as well as attentive drink was never empty. I had a tasty Bloody Mary, which I'm always nervous to order in a bar because you never know what you are going to get. This Bloody Mary was good! Just the right amount of spice, good snacks on top, even more important I didn't feel like I was just drinking mix with a whisper of vodka so my hats off to that bartender!

    I guess the majority of my experience here involved our senior socials when I was in college. Which with those experiences came awkward conversation with people I didn't know or even worse, knew and didn't remember. They have a lot of pool tables, which is a plus, helps ease the burden of weirdness. Also they have a great window seat and good bread sticks. The specials, are usually decent, and as far as Broad Ripple bars go, it's one of the easiest to get into. So that's a plus, but over all, I guess I've never really been a big fan.

It is conveniently located on the 2nd floor of The InterContinental hotel. The host stand for the restaurant is located directly across from what appeared to be the guest check-in desk. It was a little confusing. Several of the items on the menu were very appealing, the B&B Omelet, Croque Monsieur, and Ribeye French Dip to name a few, but I opted for the Little Gem Caesar with Blackened Salmon. My husband ordered The Traveler with eggs over-medium. Everything was perfectly prepared. The proportions for the salad were just right and the salmon was juicy, flavorful and crisp from the blackening. My husband wasn't expecting the somewhat unique preparation of the breakfast potatoes, but I found them to be satisfyingly crunchy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. I also ordered the seasonal Strawberry Margarita with a sugar rim. It was light and refreshing. The atmosphere is very chic, stylish and feels very upscale. The dining room, and even the restrooms, boast this amazing natural light from all of the great, big windows! Our server, Roop, was kind and attentive and the hostess was warm and inviting. We will definitely return to try some of the other offerings in the future. Very cute brunch spot!

The fish was so fresh, and you could genuinely taste the nori, which makes a huge difference. We branched out and tried the Kumamoto oysters too. Worth it. They're tinier than your typical oyster and came with a range of flavors from the seasonings and sauces. Honestly, we wish they'd been served more simply because we wanted to compare them to the ones we've had in Japan, and all the sauce made that tough. Still a fun order though. Skip the Seafood Pot, in our opinion. It tasted like Bird's Nest to us and just wasn't anything special compared to everything else. Bottom line: come for the sushi. It's the standout, and it's what'll bring us back. With ramen, hibachi, bubble tea, and a full bar also on the menu, there's plenty to explore on a return visit.
