We've broken out in song together and have had great conversations. Even got invited to a kickback. The vibe is great! The bartenders are nice and the food is so delicious! I always get the wings and fries. The wings are always crispy which I love. I get them plain with the sauce on the side. In my pic, I ended up just pouring the sauce on them myself. And the fries, omg! They definitely have THE BEST FRIES. They come seasoned so you don't have to ask and fresh out of the grease! I had 2 blackberry whiskey sours. It was my first time having one and I really liked it. It was so cute and delish. I also tried an old fashioned. I didn't like that one at all lol but I gave it a shot. Great job Alley Cat!

It has been a minute (cough*25 years*cough) since I've been to what locals call a "dive bar." Alley…read moreCat Lounge is considered by many to be that, and I won't disagree...but let me tell you it is not the dingy, drab bar that I had pictured. It was fresh, clean, cozy, and had excellent service. Although I didn't get any food, I did get a couple of cocktails and they were not only delicious, but were also SO cheap compared to bougie bars that I've frequented. Don't tell anyone else how good the Alley Cat Lounge is, though, so I can still have a seat. ;)

This is an interesting place. It's basically a fast food place run by 2 people. There's someone…read morein the 'kitchen' (basically a shack next to he main building) preparing all the food. And there's a bartender inside who takes care of all the drinks. You order from one of the tablets outside nest to the shack (directions on how to order could be a lot clearer as there is no one in the dining room or the outdoor patio to direct you to the tablets). There's a little sandwich board on the ground with some instructions scrawled on dry-erase marker. After you order and pay on the tablet (cash not accepted). You wait until you get a text on your phone to let you know to pick up your order from the sliding window at the shack. The inside is a basic bar with a full drink menu and several beers on draft and in bottles. You can pay for your drinks with cash or card. The food is actually pretty good, but quite pricey for the level of service and the amount of food you get.

The Quarter was a great spot for Southern-style food. We especially loved the gumbo and the…read morechicken, both were flavorful and well-prepared. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. We were never greeted or checked on during our visit and had to go up to the bar anytime we needed something. The bartenders seemed more focused on socializing with friends than serving customers, and it often took quite a while to get their attention. We understand it's a bar and people are there to have fun, but even a simple greeting and a little more attentiveness would have made for a much better experience.

As a special treat we were able to celebrate along side Monshun Sales, the #1 wide receiver in the country, he just committed to going to IU to play football.

I'd long been curious about Kilroy's Bar N' Grill, however, I'm not often stopping in Broad Ripple…read morethese days and haven't really had the opportunity to try it out. This is one of two Indianapolis locations - the other being downtown. Since today is Sunday, the meters in Broad Ripple are free. It's fairly easy to find accessible parking in Broad Ripple, so I took the opportunity to spend some time in the area checking things out. As it's also likely the last decent weather day for a bit, I included my long awaited stop at Kilroy's. I came in off the Broad Ripple Avenue entrance. It's a double-sided glass door entryway. It's level to the ground, not always true in Broad Ripple, and despite the doors being a bit heavy they're workable. As you enter, there's a bar area to the right and a more traditional dining area to the left. I looked around and instantly got a little concerned as it looked like every table was a high-top. While this happens on occasion, it's fairly rare and always disappointing. I finally found a multi-seat table that was lower. I hated taking it, however, it appeared to be the only option. I've often heard that Kilroy's skews toward the younger crowd. Plus, it is a sports bar with quite a few wide-screen televisions throughout. However, on this Sunday afternoon the crowd was pretty mixed and things were pretty calm. My server, Lexi, was at my table quickly and took my drink order. I browsed the menu - essentially a somewhat above average pub menu with a wide variety of appetizers, sandwiches, pizza, burgers, and a few other items. Of course, there's also a strong bar menu. I ordered a breaded chicken sandwich with tots along with my usual unsweetened iced tea. I like that there are multiple side options. The food was delicious and I would easily order it all again. I got my always desired refill. I'd not had the greatest holiday. It was my first one with me being the sole person left in my family - and I honestly was looking for a little human contact of a casual, friendly nature. Lexi was a delight. Warm and friendly, attentive without being overwhelming. Plus, she's one of those servers who draws the happy face on the receipt - I'll admit it. I love that. (Yes, I'm weird. Leave me alone.). Overall, this was a positive experience and I'd definitely return. I'm docking a star primarily due to accessibility concerns (NOTE: Interestingly enough, they have an outside dining area for warmer weather and nearly every table out there is a lower picnic-style table). Beyond the accessibility issues, I enjoyed the experience with good food, fair prices, a terrific server, and an overall positive Sunday afternoon lunch experience.

First of all, when my group of nine arrived, there was no greeting. I may be old-fashioned, but a…read moresimple acknowledgment at the door would have gone a long way and likely earned an extra star from me. Secondly, after we were seated, we waited about 15 minutes before realizing that table service wasn't offered. It would have been helpful if this had been communicated upfront. Third, when we went to the bar to order wings and fries, the wait time was roughly 50 minutes. My food was then handed to the wrong customer, and I had to retrieve it myself. Fortunately, the customer--who appeared to be very intoxicated--recognized the mistake and sat back down. When I finally received my order, it was packaged in a sealed foam container with no ventilation, which caused the steam from the wings to make the fries soggy. Overall, I won't be returning. The lack of basic customer service and attention to proper food handling made this a very disappointing experience.

I had the 12oz ribeye which was on the thin side but overall was a good steak. I expected a grizzly steak with a good amount of fat but it was on the leaner side for a ribeye and the whole steak was edible. My sides were fries(crinkle cut) and salad (a blen of iceberg and green leaf along with other veggies and cheese). Served with Texas toast. Overall a good value meal! Worth stopping for. The atmosphere was ok. A little stale and preppie. I believe they have another bar area which is divided by a wall, I cannot comment on that if so. Where I sat was more of a diner atmosphere with alcohol. Service was good

So apparently you can rent the facility prior to them opening at 10pm. So the party was from 6-10. You have access to the entire place and the outside area as well. You can also cater in your own food, so it's not like you have to use their contacts, but it does have to be catered, you can't bring in homemade food. You can also bring in a DJ. This particular party had a cash bar but you can make arrangements for it to be an open bar if you would like. The most exciting thing is you only have to have I think a $400 liquor minimum. Well if you have a decent crowd, I'm sure that's pretty easy. I also wasn't aware that they actually have a parking lot for your guests as well.
