She made us feel right at home and automatically started helping make suggestions. Cocktails, local bourbon flights and good food. What else could we ask for?

It's especially cute in the winter when they decorate everything extra cozy and festive. It seriously transforms the space and makes it such a fun place to hang during colder months. I'd highly recommend it for a cute girls' night or a cozy date night. It's also a perfect spot to grab drinks before or after dinner. One of my favorite go-to bars in the city!

If I'm in a 6+ group, I will not be able to hear everyone. Some of the drinks are made a little bit inconsistently.

Drinks: Not my fave espresso martini 6/10 Watery cranberry vodka 4/10 Lychee summer cocktail 8/10 - fruity, my friend's was tart and mine was sweet Banana rum and winter cocktail 5/10 meh, not sweet enough for me, banana is pretty artificial

I usually sit at the bar with my friend and the bartenders are some of my favorite people ever !!. We go so often that we all know each other by name now hahaha. They feel like family at this point so it is one of the few places I will go alone and still have an amazing time. The food is pretty good, their Caesar Salad is my favorite. I always order it with chicken but man I haven't had a salad like that in a loooooooong time! Oh and their bag of donuts, yuuum! Overall, I will always frequent this place and know that I will always have a good time. I cant recommend it enough!

Best pub visit on St. Paddy's Day (compared to other local options), breakfast was great (various…read moreoptions tried by our group of four). Place was packed (especially compared to other pubs we visited on the 17th, but this is what made it our favorite stop). Green beer was available and was our go to; prior visits have demonstrated they have good choices for whisky/whiskey (both Irish & Bourbon too).

Upland Brewing was the perfect way to end the night. It's got that tap house feel but still feels…read morelike a full restaurant. Open, lively, people talking, drinks flowing, but still relaxed enough to sit and take your time. Easy place to wind down. Staff was super friendly. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich. Fried chicken, blue cheese slaw, horseradish pickles on a toasted brioche bun. When it came out, I could already tell it was gonna be good. The chicken had that deep golden crust, crispy all around. First bite had that crunch, then the heat kicked in right after. Not overwhelming, just enough to wake everything up. There's a little sweetness in there too that balances it out, so it doesn't hit too hard. The slaw cools it down, adds a little tang, and the pickles bring that sharp bite that cuts through everything. The bun holds it all together without getting in the way. Messy in a good way. Every bite was packed. Honestly, just a solid sandwich all around.

We ordered the Filet Mignon with a beautiful baked potato with all the toppings. It comes with a side. We chose the Navy Bean soup.

And The Intern: the shrimp cocktail was nostril opening and it was great. The blackened chicken was wel flavored. Mac N cheese was also enjoyable. Not much beer choice on tap. They have paper towels in the restroom. Ample parking at the back. No outdoor seating. And lastly, our server, Steve made the whole event fun. He was also our photographer. Overall, a place worth repeat visit.

Bar Louie is always a favorite place of mine. I typically stick to the same meal which used to be…read morethe voodoo pasta. Unfortunately they got rid of that two or so years ago. I hope they bring it back someday! Since then, Ive had no problem trying something new every time and it's always a success! The flatbread (a little salty) and chicken sandwich (thick) are not items I'd get again but good to try. Everything else has been excellent. Nachos are always loaded. Tots are great. I tried fried pickles for the first time and they didn't let me down. Service is always great. Servers are honest if you ask for opinion on food/drinks. Their checks ins are on point too. Not too frequent, but just enough. Bar service is also top notch and make a strong drink if you want. It's almost always busy but never impacts the wait time or service you receive. Prices are good and reasonable. Prices have risen everywhere, but bar Louie remains consistent with portion sizes and hasn't gotten "conservative" with serving sizes/toppings. Including pictures over the last couple years along with last night (dec. '25) to show consistency. Must try if you're in the Carmel area. You won't regret it!

The dining room is dark, comfortable and immaculate. Maddie was an awesome server! She was friendly, attentive and made recommendations. She kept our glasses full and checked on us multiple times. Food came out quickly and we did not feel rushed. The lunch menu offers a wide range of reasonably priced sandwiches, sliders, tacos and salads. I had the 1/2 Stromboli and Chopped Salad. The Stromboli was really good with a mix of sausage, pepperoni, tomato sauce, onion, cheese on a hoagie roll. The hoagie roll was too much bread so I just ate it without the top. The Chopped Salad was really delicious with fresh greens, candied pecans, cranberries and slices of avocado. The lunch came with a beverage. My husband had the steak special with fries and a side salad. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and he ate everything. His meal was an unbelievable great deal at $11. There is plenty of parking in the strip mall lot. I'll return.

Gender neutral bathrooms (always a must). There is limited street and public parking so give yourself time to park. We love the taproom in Whitestown and it's a great place if you want to bring your kids or dogs. I love the same great atmosphere and friendly service at this new location in Carmel! Good place for a first date or for moms & dads to grab a beer. Check them out :)

The beer options are best found on Untapped with the QR code but they also have a cocktail menu and wines. There is happy hour from 4-6 Monday-Friday but we had missed the cutoff when we arrived. We appreciated the variety of the menu and the options for small plates when not quite as hungry. I loved the brown butter gnocchi and absolutely would get it again. One of my colleagues had the Apple & Brie Grilled Cheese that I will likely order next time since it looked and smelled incredible. The grilled cheese comes with butternut squash soup that provides perfect dipping! We sat indoors but I am curious to try out the all season patio on a future visit!

There's not really another bar like The Goat in Carmel. This is probably the most Broad Ripple-y…read morebar I've been to in this city. (If you know, you know.) For that reason, The Goat got in trouble by the city a while back, and was shut down for a time. But then it reopened, and now it seems to be minding its Ps and Qs, for the most part. You will know you're at The Goat when you see a big American flag flapping in the breeze outside of the restaurant. You'll also know you're at The Goat when you spot the Donald Trump beer tap handle at the bar. OK! They must really like the movie "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York" here. There really is a place for everyone, and I somehow found myself in this place. But you know what? I got nothing but love (or like, really) for The Goat. My experience was great. The service was excellent. The beer, wine and spirits list was outstanding. The music they were playing was nice (heck yeah to whoever chose to play mid-90s Incubus, Bush and Marcy Playground.) I'm the type of person who goes to a dive-ish bar and orders wine, and the kind people at The Goat didn't even blink, and poured me a nice, generous glass. Fine, two glasses. If you're the kind of person who drinks bourbon, your heart will start beating faster when you step into The Goat. They have an amazing bourbon list. On Wednesdays, they do $12 pours of select bottles, some of which are $100+ per bottle. So, you can try out some top-shelf bourbon at a decent price. Mark your calendar for Wednesdays at The Goat, if you're into bourbon. My visit was just for drinks with a small party, and we didn't try any of the food. But we got a variety of drinks among us, including red wine, beer, straight bourbon and blueberry cider. They have a lot of different types of alcohol to please an adult palate. Speaking of adults, this place is 21+ only!

I'm told the late night scene is excellent for the 21-35 crowd. I'm typically there between 3 PM - 6 PM. My experience with the service has always been good. Be sure to follow their social media accounts if you're a whiskey connoisseur. They have some killer monthly specials.
