Thieves has stolen my heart. What a great place to enjoy a spritz while lounging on one of their…read morelovely velvet couches. In fact, they have five different spritzes on the menu, which I love to see. Of course, they have the classic Aperol spritz. But they also have some creative takes, like the rose spritz, which is what I chose. It was very tasty, light and refreshing, and not too floral, which can happen with a rose-flavored beverage. Spritzes are amazing but not enough sometimes, so I also got a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. Yum! The pour was generous. I kept my drink orders simple this visit, but Thieves has a whole menu full of creative cocktails. What you do when you enter is just sit down, and someone will come by and take your order. But if you're visiting for coffee (because Thieves is also a coffee bar), you can order at the counter. I don't recall if they offer food. This is mostly a place to get drinks. And it's a lovely place to get drinks. Thieves is located in the heart of Broad Ripple, which means that parking is atrocious. I parked near The Vogue and walked over, but maybe you can find street parking, if you're lucky.

The decor left a lasting impression and is actually quite entertaining and made me want to take ALL the pictures lol. The server was very patient and professional with me and my heathens. I had my go to espresso martini and maybe more than one but hey who's counting right? Thieves is an intimate and cheeky cocktail bar perfect for date night or a night out with friends.

The space itself has some cozy spots but overall it was spacious enough; the bar area does have limited seating though. The baristas were friendly and helpful! I ordered the blueberry muffin (warmed) and it was moist and flavorful, I also ordered the iced pistachio latte and it was great - but I also wanted the Garfields Local Honey Cortado - that looked really good too. Id definitely like to try this place out in the evening to try out their drink menu too!

I was really excited to check this spot out meat my home. It's hard to beat their location near the…read moreMonon Trail and it's great to see them gathering neighbors like Recess Social. The space is cozy with large windows and garage doors- similar vibe to its former days as West Fork Whiskey. Why only three stars? The woman taking orders was painfully unfriendly. Even in my attempts to ask questions and engage, it felt like I was bothering her to place an order. It's a shame because the drip coffee was delightful and I appreciated their high top bar with outlets. I'm a big believer that coffee shops are 50% about coffee and 50% about the experience/feeling of community. I'll visit again and hope for a more warm experience next time.

Each of us got a French 75 and it was a perfect way to end the evening. I also love the food truck they have in the back, but it was too late in the night for a snack during this visit. Can't wait to come back!

Daisy Bar, I think I'm in love with you…read more From the moment I walked in, the space had me -- exposed bones of a repurposed factory transformed into something warm, intentional, and alive. There's something quietly romantic about a building that remembers what it was while becoming something entirely new, and Daisy Bar wears that history beautifully. But let me tell you about the egg sandwich. I grew up on my grandmother's egg sandwich, and I do not make comparisons to that woman's cooking lightly. Daisy Bar has somehow earned second place in a category I thought was permanently sealed. The flavors? I'm still turning them over in my mind days later -- layered, considered, the kind of bite that makes you pause mid-chew just to appreciate what's happening. That is no small thing. The coffee was smooth in the way that good coffee should be and the matcha limeade? Bright and refreshing in a way I didn't know I needed until it was in my hand. Daisy Bar, you've made a devoted regular out of me. I'll be back -- probably soon -- and I'll be thinking about you until then.

I would definitely recommend omitting the spread if you're sensitive to spice like me. The fries were so tasty as well! Truly one of the best burgers in the Indy area, if not the best. I am excited to return and eat inside one day to see the vibe and their space! The patio looks like the perfect place to chill out during the summer too :)

While the menu looked great, I was able to order a custom old-fashioned with Buffalo Trace KY bourbon, black walnut bitters, demerara syrup, and Luxardo cherries, and it was perfect. The bartender was not only skilled but also fun to chat with, which made the experience even better. The aesthetic here is modern, chic, and clean, and the service matches the vibe - professional, welcoming, and attentive. This is definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to during my stay. Whether you're a guest at the hotel or just nearby, Rye Bar is absolutely worth a visit!

The concern now is the Coach will on the trail to find the ones we tried and make them part of his impressive collection. The bar is located on the lobby level of the Marriott Downtown Indianapolis and was very busy but the bartenders did a fantastic job at filling the orders. The Rye Bar is rated as a highly recommended bar to quench your thirst.

Situated inside Hotel Nickel Plate in Fishers, the restaurant was right there off the main entrance. The buffet set up was easy to understand and navigate. The food was so so good! The buffet had a variety of breakfast and lunch options as well as a build your own omelette station! The only thing I did not like as much was the chicken, it was a bit on the drier side but everything else was good. My favorite was the salmon topped with crab cakes, the bananas foster French toast, and the omelette I made. Teresa was AMAZING! Not only did she go out of her way to get us the type of coffee we wanted, she checked on us frequently and always made sure we were good! I would love to try their menu on a non-holiday set up so I will certainly be returning.

We ordered the lemon drop martini, Elmo Cola, the Gatsby and liquid love affair. I asked for the liquid love affair to have a very light pour of alcohol and they obliged. Everyone loved their drinks. Even me. And I am NOT a drinker. We ordered shrimp cocktails, lobster bisque, steaks and lobster. Everything so good. My son's steak was overdone but they happily remade it and ALL the sides that came with it. Just immaculate service. We also ordered the chocolate mousse pie. We asked our server to place the candles we had brought on top. Lemme tell you. The service. Just so good. She realized they were sparkler candles so she waited to light it until she was at our table. We did ask the manager if we could present our son his gift during dinner. It was a firearm and we didn't wanna cause any drama or "unsafe" feelings even though, obvi, it wouldn't have been loaded. We did want to respect the establishment and their other patrons. He kindly declined and, of course, we understood. Can we talk about service? Just so exceptional. Customer service for me will make or break any experience. The bills was... A LOT. Even AFTER they comped everything the birthday boy had ordered. But even if they hadn't comped ANYTHING... I always believe in paying good money for good food. The place was clean. The bathroom clean. And there is a lot for parking. Just the best time was had.

The event takes place on the patio area, it's small and intimate. It is great for networking and mingling and making new connections. The staff was absolutely amazing and engaged with the crowd the entire night. I felt the vibe that they really love their job. They don't let you know about the menu prior to , which I was a bit apprehensive about but it turned out great! For starters we had some chunky guac, watermelon pico, and some kind of verde salsa with chips. 10/10! The Watermelon pico was new to me and very refreshing!! Next we had some steak fajitas with rice. I was not a fan of the rice and the steak wasn't seasoned to my liking but still a good dish! Lastly we had dessert that put me in the mind of being at the state fair. It was a pastry fried (think like funnel cake taste) and fruit ...so yummy! Now the margaritas! Enjoy as much it as little as you like! I loved experimenting and trying different combos. My favorite was the mango spicy flavor! They said they have these events quarterly or so and I can't wait to go to the next one!
