Food Scene
The best chef-driven kitchen in the area which always puts out a consistently creative, delicious meal. Nice atmosphere with booths, larger group seating tables and quick meal/drinks at the large bar which offers the complete dining menu. Try the Spicy Garlic Shrimp or Ahi Tuna appetizers. The Grilled Salmon Salad is a long time favorite and their wood fired pizzas are a nice smoky flavor experience that are reasonably priced.

Extremely faithful organic dairy farm with a quality restaurant in a beautiful rural setting with architecturally distinctive Arts and Crafts barns and buildings. A real treat for the palate and the eyes. Music some nights, a farmer's market every Friday evening except winter season. On the pricey side but excellent service and ambiance. You get what you pay for here.

The absolute best pizza and wings in the area and one of the best you'll ever taste anywhere. This is a small family run kitchen whose dedication to daily fresh, quality ingredients puts them at the top. BTW, their wings are not little halves but still whole large wings that fill you up.! Great for carryout or delivery to your room. They know this address!

Microbrewery that ranks among the best in the state of Indiana. Housed in architecturally stunning post and beam building they have family dining room as well as the huge barroom for grown ups. The large outdoor beer garden has live music frequently and is a nice hangout spot in good weather. The pizzas are exceptionally good as well as their delicious, signature pulled pork nachos, an order of which is enough for two people. Add the expansive number of beer on tap and you'll want to linger here for a while! A special place!

Do you want to drive go karts on an indoor road course or oval adjacent to a restaurant/bar!? Then this is the place for you. Former Indy 500 driver Sarah Fisher built this impressive 2 story complex combining racing and drinking.....what could go wrong!? Seriously, the karting is set up and designed to be very safe but really good fun. Lots of racing memorabilia scattered throughout, good drink variety, eats are a cut above regular bar food but not its strong point here. BTW, if you're not going to race karts there's plenty of vantage points to watch your family or friends do so and the ventilation is engineered so as to have no unpleasant smell anywhere!

This is a genuine, family run, little, casual restaurant that is easy on the wallet with quick easy service and home cooked food. An adequate selection of beer and wine rounds it out with their own family Tiramisu recipe which differs a little but still delivers the goods! Traditional, delicious Italian fare for a good price!

This is the area's closest BBQ restaurant which serves a variety of other foods as well. It's very popular with visiting race teams and fans so it's decorated with many racing photos and memorabilia.
Pit Stop BBQ & Grill

This BBQ restaurant is a 14 minute drive from here and offers a little different experience than the Pit Stop BBQ. They cook St. Louis style ribs, not baby back, which is meatier. Plus they cook their ribs "wet" so you get a juicier meat. Their "hook" is a huge variety of bourbons for those looking to try out something other than a typical Jack Daniels. Lots of good sides to go with your chicken or ribs served up by family owners, not a chain. It has a bar which serves up a bit of night life atmosphere, too.

Housed in the 1893 historic Athenaeum on edge of Mass Ave corridor this old school tavern reeks bloody history with all the original architectural woodwork and carved stone masonry. Combine that with a German/European beer offering in both the classic beer hall and the ornate biergarten and this place is special. Big variety of food from quick bites to full formal meals. Great, unforgettable hangout spot.

This is a beautifully designed winery/bar space owned by legendary Indy 500 winner and car owner A J Foyt. As such, the interior is awash in museum level memorabilia including a full size Indy car that he drove just blocks away at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Their Napa and Sonoma valley wines are exceptional and reflect it in the price. Very classy place to chill out and, on some nights, party down with live music. The menu includes a variety of craft and other beers plus appetizers, salads and sandwiches. A "must-visit" for Indy 500 fans!
