    Always a blast! Every ride I've booked with Pickled has been had with a great driver, and lots of fun from all in attendance! Tours go through a scenic route through downtown Indianapolis. Periodic stops are made at nearby bars or breweries for those in need of a rest or restock on provisions. During the ride, good audio from the sound system plays while enjoying adult beverages! A must-do Indianapolis activity!

    Wow!!! What an incredible experience for my friend's 50th birthday celebration. Our group of friends decided to do The Pickled peddler for a 50th birthday celebration. This is a party bicycle cart that is motorized so that you do not have to pedal the entire time you are on it, but feel free to do so to get the full experience. You go around downtown Indy drinking on the cart and pedaling while music is blasting and all the patrons downtown chip in and wave to you to be part of the fun! You are allowed two to three stops on the trail downtown Indy to take a complimentary shot at one of the bars and visit the rest room, but it is only for 10 to 15 minutes at each stop, so you have to be quick. The best part is we were allowed to bring our own alcohol onto the cart to enjoy at our leisure during the entire trail in downtown Indy. There is a staff member from The Pickled peddler who operates and drives the cart throughout downtown Indy, and provides the music and entertainment for you by playing drinking games during the trail. Jon Stoops was our driver on the Picked Peddler and he was fantastic and very professional! He played excellent music at our request and kept the party going on our trail through downtown Indy. Jon was very entertaining and made our experience more enjoyable. Jon Stoops is an excellent employee at The Pickled peddler. The Pickled peddler is very cost worthy and not too expensive at all if you get a good group of people together to chip in on the cost. Plus, you can bring your own alcohol onto the cart. If you are looking for something fun and enjoyable to do for a birthday or special occasion, I highly recommend The Pickled peddler. This was a blast and my friends had a blast as well. The birthday boy loved it and made his 50th birthday memorable. That is something you will remember for a long time. Make the best memories happen by doing The Pickled peddler. You will not regret it!!!!

    Even in the rain this was such a blast for the Halloween weekend. Rob was a pleasure to have as our driver and made the trip a great experience. He helped navigate us as to what bars we could stop at along the way and snagged some great pictures for us along the trip. We did the 2 hour ride and would highly recommend it! We will definitely be riding again!

They had the door open, which was letting in the fresh almost-spring air.) Drinks are pretty much all they have at Snug, to be honest. Don't visit thinking you're going to find a meal, because they don't have a lot of food beyond locally made hand pies and empanadas, a grazing board, and something called Snug Nuts. (Which brings to mind certain ... images.) I didn't get any food, just a Road & Coke, which is a whiskey with a Coke and lime, similar to a Cuba libre, although a Cuba uses rum. It was delicious, but a little light on the booze. It was only $5 and change, though, so it's kind of like what do you expect, really. It was a nice drink to sip slowly while I sat in the small, cozy bar. Speaking of bar aesthetics: Snug lives up to its name. It's tiny and dark but inviting. It feels like stepping into a hug. A hug that can also provide you with copious amounts of Irish whiskey, which sounds like the best kind of hug, to me.

Small, little, somewhat burnt, STEAMING HOT, not-so-buttery and not-so-cajun-ish corn on the cobs. Next we have the chicken. I would've rather grown a chicken, killed it for some wings, made a hat with its feathers and made sensory toys with its eyes The buns were probably the best part. The lettuce was cut smaller than you could ever imagine, the chicken had a good amount but tasted like it was drowned in Franks Red Hot Sauce. The tomato was a tomato This isn't all the restaurant though. The other times I visited here were AMAZING The times I sat in the big room were good because, there were TVs to save my boredom, the built in chargers were neat, and the food was just better! BRING BACK THE TVS THAT SHOW WHAT MUSIC IS PLAYING PLS Thank you for listening to me yap!

The AVG is definitely a neighborhood tavern. It's cozy and very laid back with high top tables. I ordered an Old Fashioned but mixed drinks weren't really on offer unless it was something like rum and coke. I had a beer. It was fine. We were there for about an hour and a half. I would definitely return. The vibes were slow paced. We moved on to The Checkered Flag. Wowza!! It was a Thursday night but the place was hopping. We were joined by another friend with plans to have a bite to eat. The menu is unbelievable. So much to choose from. We were kind of boring because 3 of us chose the same thing and the other two chose the same item. Two had the pork tenderloin. Both agreed it was excellent. Three of us had the BBQ Pork spud. It's a giant baked potato with butter, a good spread of pimento cheese, moist pulled pork, BBQ sauce, coleslaw and green onions. It was fantastic. Normally the pork can become a bit dry. This was not the case. Cooked perfectly. I was able to order the Old Fashioned. They apologized because they were out of oranges but I was fine. It was a very good drink. There happened to be two musicians performing. I was quite impressed. This tavern was very very impressive. We all agreed to return Our final stop was Herrmann. It's a small brewery tucked away off a quiet street. We were offered several tastings of the beers on offer. We were all able to find something to our liking. I had a porter. There are tables for four spread around the seating area. It's comfortable and definitely a neighborhood haunt. All three places were definitely neighborhood taverns. The Checkered Flag was hands down the best! Indy has so much to offer!
