Met up here with friends for lunch yesterday and had a great time. They only have a few parking…read morespots right next to the actual business, but there are several other areas to park nearby with less than a minute walk. The inside is decorated super cute and has a couple of rooms with seating, so a small group of people can still have lunch together despite the small space. You order at the counter, but then everything after that is table service unless you want to order more food or drinks. They have a drink/dessert case near the register that had some tasty looking dessert options (lemon cake, matcha cheesecake, beignets, macarons), but I didn't try any during my visit. I ordered a 24oz iced banana bread latte with almond milk, a turkey and gouda toastie (a fancy grilled cheese), and a side of kettle chips. One friend also ordered the turkey and gouda with extra turkey and our other friend ordered a different toastie with a cup of tomato soup and a sweet tea. We all really loved our lunch, with one friend saying she liked her sandwich more than the last cafe spot we met up at. The food took longer than I would have thought to come out, but it was because the group next to us had ordered food right before we came in and we hadn't realized. They also forgot my side of kettle chips, but I just walked back up to the register to ask them for it. Loved that they offer a 24oz size for iced coffee, so I'll definitely be stopping in here again soon! They have order forms at the register to build your own charcuterie board to eat there or take to-go. I definitely want to come back to do that- it would be the perfect snack to have at a park picnic. The group next to us had all ordered small charcuterie boards, which was why the food took a little longer to come out. They all looked tasty and were the perfect size for one.

The ladies at Brie and Bartlett came through in a huge way and have to shoot them a compliment…read more We wanted to get a charcuterie board for a friend of ours who was dealing with a death in her family. We thought a nice charcuterie board would be great for the family to enjoy with everyone at their home coming and going. I called a few places and they all asked for a few days notice, which I completely understand. This was my last phone call to a place that sells these, and despite them having a large function the next day, she said, "absolutely, give us some time and we will make it happen!" I picked up a board for around 10 people, it cost a little over $100, and was perfect! The family truly enjoyed it, said it was wonderful and I can thank them enough for fitting in the order. Highly Recommend!!!

Wow!! What a transformation!! I haven't seen this building since it was Jonathan Byrd's restaurant…read more The exterior is now black and white which is very classic and understated. The Nest Event Center is located in Greenwood just off I-65 at Main Street. The parking lot is quite large and will accommodate a large event. The interior is amazing and you'd never know it was a former restaurant. The lobby area is very attractive, decorated in beiges and cream, and I could see using this for cocktails, a reception line plus so much more. It worked well tonight for purchasing tickets plus an area to sit and relax while enjoying the fireplace. The versatile ballroom is quite large and can handle everything from a wedding, conference to special events. One of those special events is the Holiday Craft Show tonight. The Event Center has a neutral color scheme and can accomadate most bridal or conference color schemes. This proved to be true with all the colors associated with the Holiday Craft Show. Tonight all different color schemes were used and all the crafts looked wonderful. With this neutral backdrop any decor theme would work nicely allowing brides or companies a great deal of flexibility and creativity. The Holiday Craft Show was a huge draw. Many different types of vendors filled the ballroom carrying Christmas decor, wreaths, jewelry, clothing, wool mittens, woodworking projects, signs, candles, crocheted items, lap blankets, floral arrangements and much more. There truly was something for most anyone's interest and many gift ideas. In the future I would like to take an official tour and checkout pricing for a yearly event I'm involved with. This is a beautiful venue with endless potential.

Jameson Camp is a hidden gem located off of Bridgeport Road just north of West Washington Street…read more First I'd like to take a moment to tell you of the wonderful work Jameson Camp does and how your rental fees help with that mission. The Camp is a beautiful venue for events while the affordable rental fees help support the children and youth programs for at-risk youths. The Camp began in 1928 and you or your grandparents may be familiar with their history of serving ill children. Jameson Camps' focus is on children's social, behavioral and emotional challenges and equipping them for productive and responsible lives. Responding to an increasing concern for childhood obesity a Wellness Camp was launched in 2006, a creative program that utilizes camp to teach healthy choices in fitness and nutrition. Last, but certainly not least, is their Camp Tataya Mato for children affected by HIV/AIDS which is the only residential camp to these special children in Indiana. As you can see your rental fees support the outstanding work Jameson Camp does serving children with health needs in the Indianapolis area. In 2006 they replaced the original headquarter with a beautiful new center, lodge, health center and a nature and arts and crafts center. No only providing enhanced program facilities for the children, these buildings provide new opportunities to serve as a community partner and provide funding from the rental fees. This is a wonderful venue for events as small as a corporate business meeting to an elegant wedding. Several sizes of venues are available or even rent the entire camp for the ideal wedding or family reunion where your event along with family and friends are residing at one location. The Lodge and Cabins are so affordable compared to the cost of hotel rooms and transportation for your wedding guests, business associates or family traveling. The Lodge is its own large facility and sleeps 24 for $450. What a savings compared to a Hotel!! There are four meeting areas of various sizes and prices along with 6 cabins for lodging that accommodates 24 in each plus don't forget The Lodge. The Challenge Course is available to incorporate into your event with low and high ropes plus a climbing wall. Other amenities include a basketball court, swimming pool, open game fields and a campfire circle. The Jameson Center is picturesque with a majestic-pine-framed dining room with a striking two sided fireplace that accommodates 140 persons for dinner. If that's too large select the smaller dining room with fireplace and seats 30. The Jameson Center rental includes the use of their FULL commercial kitchen including the walk-in refrigerator and walk-in freezer. A Chefs' dream whether you use a preferred caterer or you personally prepare the meals. Vanessa, the Office Manager, was telling me of recent large wedding with a beautiful large tent adjacent to the Jameson Center where the guests stepped directly into the tent from the dining room. You can have your wedding and dinner inside and dancing outside. So many options here! Leadership training, Corporate Team Meeting, Weddings, Reunions, endless uses for this venue. Be sure to check out this scenic facility and grounds. Give Vanessa Fry a call for a tour or e-mail her at Vanessa@jamesoncamp.org for additional information.

It is easily accessible from the 465 interstate and would be a great hotel choice for the Indianapolis 500 race weekend. A special shout out to Maria who helped me check into my room an hour earlier to attend a wedding 15 minutes away. I love the Chat function on the Hilton app that allowed me to converse with the front desk and state my request ahead of time. That is another reason why I am a Gold member with Hilton! I also like the bar and lounge area in this Hampton. It was much larger than I expected with a wraparound bar and big screen TVs. I want to give a shout out to the bartender, Shakeata, who was a pleasure to talk with and who makes a great cocktail! There is also a nice fitness facility and a free breakfast, with good options. Parking is also free. Overall, everything was great. The only issue I had was the shower and the lack of adequate hot water right away from the shower head. It took a FULL MINUTE for the warm/hot water to come on (around 11am). Considering it was 20 degrees outside at the time, it was initially concerning that I may have to contact the front desk to determine if the hot water system was working properly. I was on the 6th floor (top floor) and maybe it takes that long for the hot water to reach that level, but this might be something the management may want to look into at this facility.

I'm struggle to describe because I really like the staff but there were roaches in the refrigerator and the room. The air conditioner didn't work and the bathroom had mold and stains on the sheets, carpet and curtains. Stains from only God knows what? It could be a gem but unfortunately like some former hotel chain buildings in America, they are being bought by individuals who are turning them into flop hotels, allowing people to live there and renting the building to less than desirable events and customers. Dare I say slum lord type owners. It used to be a very nice hotel. Not for the faint at heart, but a good hotel for a weekend with the fellas or a couple hours of "fun."

Wow! This is such a cool place and I can't believe I don't know about this gem until now…read more Because of the name, I didn't realize that this was a museum. As someone who loves traveling around the world and learn other cultures, this place literally is right up my alley. The space is bigger than I imagined from the entrance.

Upon arrival, parking was widely available and easily marked. The venue itself is comparable to a greenhouse overlooking a wooded landscape with a pond and large deck overlooking the water. You couldn't ask for a better space. Natural light pours in and there were tons of plants making it a cozy and natural atmosphere. With the lighting features and design of the space, you can easily customize it to make it your own with flowers, color additions, bars in different spaces and a variety of table layouts. All of the staff that we encountered were friendly and on top of it. I can only speak for the space as an attendee versus the actual event planner. In summary, this place is a beaut and probably one of my favorite venues I've encountered in the Circle City.

The creamery / dairy is such a cool addition to the whole experience. They make their own ice cream and various cheeses. They offered them on a cheese charcuterie board for an appetizer.

The restaurant is vast and the atmosphere is comfy and rustic. The food was great and everyone seemed to enjoy it. It was all well prepared. We tried the fish, burger, mac and cheese and scallops pasta dish. I had a filet steak and it was wonderful. The staff were very knowledgeable and so helpful and friendly.

Not to mention large wooden red barn doors to complete the look! But then the inside. Purely enchanting! For a party I attended, they decked the place out in string lights and wrapped them on the banister and I'm pretty sure I walked into a twinkling piece of heaven. Holy moly, this place is simply stunning and elegant with a rustic feel! It very comfortably held 100 people and could probably fit more. I didn't want to leave at the end of the night it was so dreamy. Other notes: -Parking available at adjacent church - short walk for guests, or AWB has golf carts -Elevated stage perfect for entertainment -Bathrooms located right off the main floor -Owners are extremely nice and accommodating - ask them to tell you the story of their biz! -Not sure how wheelchair friendly it is - guests had to walk up some steps to enter, and it's a gravel drive
