We have visited AVG pub on many occasions and we are never disappointed! The owner/chef Tito is…read moreusually there when we visit and he knows his way around the kitchen! We have had amazing Cuban sandwiches, biscuits and gravy with a fried egg on top and out of this world bloody Mary's! Last night Tito made parrilla and he knocked it out of the park! The meat was cooked to perfection! Tito makes this delicious sauce called AVG sauce that went perfect with the meat, I even asked him if I could have a straw to drink the sauce straight up (joking!) Theresa was our waitress and she is always treats us well. I love that there are customers who regularly visit the pub and so it feels like your hanging out with friends. We always end up leaving happy, full and like we made new friends! Run do not walk to visit AVG Pub, you can thank me later!!

I was in town for a convention and staying at an AirBnB nearby. A couple nights we didn't want to…read morego out, so we went to the vault. It is a modest size bar. You enter through a speakeasy type door. I'm not a huge fan of these but it is fine. Inside there is a decent sized bar and a mixture of different table sizes. When our group went in person the service was just horrible. The saving grace was that the food was outstanding. Another night I just did pickup. Again the food (wings and fries) was outstanding. The food was ready a little bit after the projected time, but not egregiously so. So overall great food, decent atmosphere, but the service could be better. This seems to be a consistent complaint across reviews, so hopefully the managers/owners are paying attention and can improve things.

Don't let anyone tell you different. Mike's Speedway Lounge is a decent place to celebrate a 16th…read moreanniversary, no matter what that 16th anniversary is. (OK, maybe not the anniversary of your sobriety.) It's located on 16th Street in Speedway, so you have numerology in your favor. It's mellow and laid-back, like the number 16. (No one thinks about the number 16, so it has no responsibilities. The number 16 doesn't have to do any heavy lifting like 15 or 20.) It has decent food. You can really just relax at Mike's and settle into the hazy fog of canned beer and fried foods. This bar opens at noon, and like a degenerate fiend, I was there right when it opened. A guy who seemed like a regular sat down at the bar not too long after I grabbed a table, and a beer was placed in front of him before he even had time to arrange himself on his barstool. Then, wordlessly, a basket of food soon followed. Mike's Speedway Lounge is that kind of place: It's where everyone knows your name, and if you're lucky, your beer and food will materialize in front of you with little to no effort. This was my first time visiting, though, so nothing materialized in front of me. That said, the service was excellent. There was one woman working when I visited, and she was opening beers, taking orders, cooking, settling tabs, dealing with deliveries and wiping tables all by herself. She also had time to tell me about the length of her father's grass, and that was a pleasant conversation. By the time I left, there were several people at the bar chatting with the server and each other. It was a nice and friendly atmosphere. Speaking of opening beers: There are no beers on tap here. Zero. All of the beer is in cans or bottles. They do have a lot of liquor, though, so they can make you a little something, if you want. The food is OK and what you'd expect for a bar. Burgers and sandwiches come with fries, which were excellent. Mike's serves crinkle-cut fries, and they are perfectly fried, so they are crispy on the outside but soft and mealy on the inside. I'm a patty melt person through and through, so that's what I got. The patty melts at Mike's are served between slices of marble rye bread, which was a nice surprise, but the cheese is American, which isn't my favorite. We also got the Mike's Famous Spanish Burger, which is a super thick burger patty with tomato sauce and bell peppers. Apparently, it tastes like a stuffed pepper made into a burger. So depending on where you stand with stuffed peppers, you will either love this burger, or feel like you need to urgently use the restroom after you eat it. Your mileage may vary. There's a pool table here, as well as a digital juke box, a claw machine with twisted things in it (I can't even say what those things are, because Yelp would probably flag my review), a racing video game (because Indy 500), and a few machines that dispense pull tab tickets. This is an old-school bar for sure. The only thing missing is the clouds of cigarette smoke. This is a no-smoking bar!

Our first round, we got beers because we're boring and basic. lBut they were local beers, and they were on tap, so that kind of made up for our basic choices, because the local beer scene in Indy is amazing. Hiatus offers a selection of several different local beers, so you will probably find some of your favorites. We got the Workingman's Pilsner from Fountain Square Brew, which is great. We also tried the Cold Hammer Highball canned cocktail from West Fork Whiskey Company, which was awesome. If you're in the mood for a canned cocktail, you can't go wrong with one from West Fork Whiskey Company. There are also other canned cocktails available. But Hiatus also offers non-canned cocktails, and they have a full menu of cocktails to choose from. Once you get your drink, you can enjoy it at the bar or carry it around with you around The Amp. Good deal!

Staff were fun and friendly! The music was good. Decor and chairs were awesome! Part of me thinks it would be cool if more businesses came to this little area, but I don't want it to lose its quaint special feel. The location makes it more difficult to visit again since it isn't near a lot, but I will definitely try and make it back in!!
