Well, is this or the Slippery Noodle the true oldest bar in the state?…read more I sure hope it's Knickerbocker Saloon, because the place is great. Good drinks, good beer selection, friendly (if seriously busy) bartenders, decent patio and fantastic inside seating. The decor is wonderful - love the belt-driven fans and the tin ceiling. And the food is really good - the pork tenderloin (brought down from sister bar Digby's was a "grown up" version with flavorful marinated meat encased in a nice breading that refused to crumble off, topped with a mustard sauce and house-made cucumber, onion and jalapeño pickles on a brioche bun that stood up to it all. It's not the tenderloin I had as a kid, but it's a delight for a grown-up. I really like this place, and so does my wife.

Had to stop in since I was in the area with some time on my hands. I've been to the bar in Indy…read morethat claims "oldest bar in Indiana" as well. Now, whichever it is, I've been there. The bartender was friendly & attentive. The surprise was that food comes from the bar across the street! There is no kitchen here, but they own the other bar. I got their (bar across the street) namesake burger & chips. Both were very good. I could see going back, but maybe to the bar across the street, since that's where the food comes from anyway.

For the record I only go here for lunch since it is down the street from my office. I have yet to…read morehave a bad meal here. The daily specials are REALLY specials. The double cheeseburger&fries for $6, Taco Tuesday, Rib Wednesday (my FAVORITE - $1 a bone!), and Wing Thursday. Now they have been known to run out of Ribs, and have on occasion not had something available that is on the menu, but that is rare. I have never had any problems with service and the food was always very good. Definitely glad I finally decided to start stopping in. And the ambience! The music that is streaming is absolutely fantastic. 60s-80s serious rock. Reminds me of the old AOR stations from the 70s.

308 is one of those places that has grown on me the more I go. A newer entry to the Purdue bar…read morescene, 308 is deceptively large and modern inside, with three (four?) distinct areas. The basement has a nightclub vibe, with lots of good EDM/rap music playing throughout the night. It's fairly large, and has good lighting/party effects. There is a bar and bathrooms down here as well. There isn't much seating downstairs as it is more for dancing. The first floor now contains two bars, and has plenty of seating. This is where you'll probably want to be if you want to sit and order some food, while also being in the bar environment. There are usually a decent amount of people on the first floor. The second floor has more of a lounge vibe, with a bar and a ton of seating. There is a beer pong table, and I think they sometimes do karaoke up here. If you just want to sit and chill, without loud music and lots of people, the second floor is where to go. 308 also has food, and I was surprised by how good it is. I have had a couple of their sandwiches, and for a bar, it is pretty darn good. It's not somewhere I would go out of my way to eat at, but it is good. The drink specials are generally pretty good; some notable specials they run are the $1 "you call it" shots, where the bartender just kind of pours whatever they want, and the $4 Titos specials. They have just about every type of liquor imaginable. The bathrooms here are kind of weird, and it can get very backed up when it's busy. The second floor one is particularly bizarre, being a unisex bathroom with a lock that also has multiple urinals/stalls, with no real divider between them. I'm not entirely sure how that one is supposed to operate. Overall though, 308 has become somewhere I go to semi-reguarly, particularly due to its multiple offerings. (Want to dance? Go to the basement. Want to just chill? Second floor. etc.) It's not a bad choice by any means if you're in the Purdue/West Lafayette area.

The reviews I checked sounded pretty good, and I expected a townie lunch crowd. And that is what I experienced (some regulars even said "see you tomorrow" to the bartender on the way out). Biggest takeaway for me is, man, this place was *nice* on the inside. Very classy/newer interior. Well located TVs, two somewhat separate zones in which to sit plus the bar, and two outdoor seating areas for when the weather is nicer. Really, really good place on the inside. Possibly the best interior layout/decor of any restaurant in town. Service was fast and friendly for a weekday lunch. I tried wings and a pork tenderloin sandwich with fries. Both were about what you would hope for from looking at the place. Delicious. This is a comfortable, yet fun atmosphere. Great service, I really was impressed. I will be back.

Us three guys wondered in a Wednesday evening to sample the casual dinner. Found the menu with all the usual fare, traditional and reunion familiar, Lacks the adventurous spirit of other local taps like AJs and Town and Gown, but there are few places in town to fully let loose and ensure the kids don't show up. We found the mac n cheese a bit watery, lacking the punch of full flavors, more budget Kraft than craft. Beef Manhattan did better with some echos to vintage cooking however better options abound in the area. Service was done right, sense of family here and enjoyable long night community.
