MacNiven's Restaurant and Bar |
|
(Nightlife - Bars) |
|
339 Massachusetts Ave, Indianapolis 46204 317-632-7268 |
 |
| |
Description:
You might think you've stumbled into a pub from the Old Country when you walk through MacNiven's door. Darkened woods, quiet conversation, and the sound of clinking mugs raised in toasts set the mood. The imported beer selection is impressive, thanks to more than 15 Scottish beers (many of them on tap) and around 120 different brews. A fine assortment of single malt scotches is also available. Locals love the place in the evenings, but MacNiven's also does a steady lunch business thanks to authentic Scottish pub grub like steak pie and mashed potatoes, Scotch eggs, and beans on toast. |

(Nightlife - Bars) |
|
707 Massachusetts Ave, Indianapolis 46204 317-639-6022 |
 |
| |
Description:
Multi-storied and welcoming to all persuasions, this friendly Mass Avenue standby is so much more than a bar: you'll also find a hopping dance floor, pool tables, karaoke on selected nights, and even a sex shop for less timid patrons. The bar features a solid if unremarkable selection; grab a brew or a mixed drink and head out to the brick patio or downstairs to a more secluded table. A great place to start the night, but be warned: with the DJ's inspired mix of disco and funk, you'll probably be closing the place down. |

Slippery Noodle Inn |
|
(Nightlife - Bars) |
|
372 S Meridian St, Indianapolis 46225 888-347-4748 |
 |
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. When you're visiting Indianapolis, this place should not be missed. Located in the city's oldest standing commercial building, Slippery Noodle offers live blues music every night of the week. First-time visitors will want to check out bullets wedged in the walls of the back room, which was used as a livery stable and for target practice. Many moons ago, the tavern regularly hosted rough-and-tough, gun-bearing members of the infamous Brady and Dillinger gangs. |
