Quesadilla, Italian-style
Alicia R.

A tad pricey, but nice place to relax and have drinks and bites. I was downtown and had a couple hours between events, and was looking for a place to do a bit of laptop work. I think I initially popped into JW to stop by Starbucks, but the lobby bar caught my eye. True to name, it is part lobby/part bar. There's a variety of seating choices - couches, high tables, dining tables. There's a fair amount of plug access as well and ultimately decided I wanted some food, so sat myself at high table near the bar and plugged in. During my time there, I ordered two glasses of wine and several appetizers. My only pet peeve was the item names; simplified to a single word, ordering by name felt a bit silly, haha. I had the quesadilla, which is a stack of small quesadillas reimagined with Italian ingredients. A bit messy, but tasty. The shellfish was pricier but was pretty large! Good to share with larger group. It consisted of popcorn shrimp and some decent-sized chunks of lobster. Service was good - attentive, but not overly so as I was working on my computer. Free public Wi-Fi. A splurge compared to typical Internet cafe, but was nice to indulge. Was quiet and fairly empty when I arrived, got noisier as day turned into Friday night and more folks filtered into hotel, but not bad.

Blackberry smash and Indiana mule.

I really enjoyed my visit to the Lobby Bar at the JW. It has some cozy corners, some tall tables or get social at the bar top. They have a great cocktail list with some really good drinks. We ordered some with fresh ingredients (herbs, fruit) and they tasted excellent. The service was on par and timely. We didn't order any food, so I can't really speak to the menu. I'd definitely grab a drink here again.

One of the best speakeasies in Indianapolis! They recently completed a renovation, and the expanded…read morespace is a huge improvement. The lounge is much larger now, with additional seating and a cozy lounge area in the back featuring comfortable couches. It feels much more open while still keeping the intimate speakeasy atmosphere. This is one of my favorite places for craft cocktails because there's always something new to try. Their menu changes seasonally, so even if you've been before, you'll usually find new creations alongside their signature cocktails. The drinks are true works of art, both in flavor and presentation. On my most recent visit, I tried a cocktail off the Pride menu called the Stonewall, and it was absolutely delicious. It had a beautiful pink color, and I loved the glass it was served in. The presentation is always top notch. Service was good. The drink was also only $10, which is pretty cheap for the quality compared to other places. We didn't stay long this visit, but it's always one of my go to spots to relax, catch up with friends, and enjoy expertly crafted cocktails. An added bonus is that you can order food from Goodfellas Pizza and enjoy it while you're in the lounge, making it an even better experience.

This is a nod to speakeasies of the past. It's not as difficult to get in, though. No password…read morerequired. Just walk into the Goodfellas Pizza and go to the left. Or walk in through the patio doors on the outside to the left. Once inside you're greeted by dark wood and leather everywhere. And whiskey. Lots of whiskey. They have several whiskey flights available at different price points. Come on Fridays when all the whiskey flights are on sale.

From the moment I walked in, I was obsessed with the atmosphere and all the thoughtful details that make the space feel so unique. I love that it effortlessly transforms from a cozy coffee shop by day into a cocktail bar at night--the vibes are immaculate no matter when you visit. The staff was exceptional and so helpful in walking me through the menu. One of my favorite things to do is ask the baristas what they recommend, and they definitely didn't disappoint. I went with a blueberry vanilla iced latte, and it was the perfect way to kick off my Friday.

Great drinks. Cool ambiance. Hot- turn on the A/C…read more I really enjoyed Thieves. It has a unique atmosphere with a mix of people doing their own thing. Some were quietly relaxing while others were catching up over drinks. The coffeehouse-meets-cocktail-bar aesthetic is well executed and gives the space a distinct personality. I ordered the nonalcoholic Basil Needs a Break, and it was excellent. If you like basil, this drink definitely delivers. It was bright, refreshing, and very basil-forward. The service was friendly and welcoming. My only complaint was the temperature inside. It was nearly 100 degrees outside, but the bar felt warm with very little air circulation. It was almost refreshing to step back into the muggy heat after leaving, which probably isn't the feeling you're hoping to give your guests. I'd definitely come back for the drinks and atmosphere, but I'd hope for a cooler temp next time.
