Slippery Noodle Inn

I stopped here for some dinner and to enjoy some live blues music. This place excelled on both accounts. I didn’t have a chance to hear more about the history of the location, but it’s been around a while. The staff was professional, and I got my order in before the music started. The tenderloin sandwich was great, and wasn’t too greasy or excessive. The flavor was very pleasant. The blues music was also very enjoyable, and I highly recommend the place for the quality of the talent that comes through here. This isn’t a super fancy place, but it’s definitely worth spending some time in.

I really enjoy coming to this bar! This is one of my favorite spots in town. The place is spacious with tons of seating, and they have a great selection of drinks along with affordable food options. The atmosphere is always lively, especially on jazz nights or when they have live music. I’ve come in a few times to see my friend Zach Day perform, and the vibe is always awesome. It’s definitely a great place to relax, enjoy some good music, and hang out with friends.

We had a really fun night here! Grabbed a seat, ordered some soda, and went with three different appetizers. The pretzel bites and street corn were absolute winners—so flavorful and fun to share. Our server, Leaf, was amazing—super friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. The music was a highlight too. The first blues band sounded super professional and had everyone nodding along, while the second group seemed like they were just getting together for the first time—but it was kind of fun to hear how they worked it out and jammed together. It gave the night this spontaneous, lively energy that made the whole experience feel authentic and enjoyable. Between the tasty food, great service, and fun live music, it was a perfect casual night out. Definitely a place I’d come back to for another round of appetizers and some good tunes.

Bar food that is better than bar food! Went with a larger group and everything everyone ordered looked great and so was the quality and quantity. Had the Whiskey Pepper Steak Sub which was outstanding with a fantastic bourbon flavor. Service was prompt with no issues taking care of a large group. Menu has many choices, many items you won't find anywhere else. Located in the shadow of Lucas Oil Stadium and definitely deserves a visit!

DO NOT GO HERE TO WATCH COLLEGE FOOTBALL! We came from out of town to watch the BIG10 championship game. We didn't have tickets to the game, so wanted to find a good spot to watch it. All the bars had extremely long lines. After hearing about the big screen projectors at the slippery noodle, we decided to get in line. We waited about an hour to get in. It would have been a shorter wait but the door man continued to let people skip the line and get in the bar without waiting. Pretty frustrating. Once inside, I loved how rustic and awesome it was. The main bar at the front is great. Then there is room after room of tables and TVs. Once we went to the back room, we knew that's where we wanted to stay to watch the game. The room had a huge projector screen over a stage and a second level too. We were there 3 hours ahead of time to get a good table right in front of the giant projector that was playing other football games at the time. Once we were settled, had a clear view of the screen, the Alabama/Georgia game was over and the projector screen was rolled up. Super confused, we asked the guy in the DJ booth next to where we were sitting and he said a band was going to play and the game was not going to be shown in that room. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SIGNS THAT SAID THIS. (THE WAIT STAFF DIDNT EVEN KNOW!) We then frantically went up front, along with 100% of the other people who were also upset, to try to find a seat to watch the game that was starting in 15 min. Of course there was no where to sit. We then saw the guy who either owns or manages the place and I asked him why in the world he had a band playing back in the back room instead of showing the BIG10 tournament game. He said, "because I like music." I then said, "this is the biggest game of the year!," to which he replied, "the Super Bowl is the biggest game of the year." He was completely rude and dismissive of the guests that wanted to watch the game in the packed house back room. We did have some kind people allow us to pull up some seats in the front room with a projector screen, however there was a ton of issues trying to get the sound on. We were told "comcast messed something up". Even when the sound finally came on, it had constant feedback and a loud hum the whole game. I went to the back room during the game to see if anyone was listening to the band and there was 1 table of people. Maybe this is a good blues bar, but the owner guy does NOT care about college football and we will never watch another game there.

Finally went here for a beer and a meal. Tried to visit this place during a Colts Home Game but didn’t get there early enough to truly experience the place. Last night we stopped by for dinner. They have live music every night. I had their Chef Salad and a side of Onion Rings that we shared. My son ordered their wings with Spicy BBQ Sauce and some with Lemon Pepper. I tried the BBQ wings - very nicely done. The Onion Rings and Chef Salad were great. Very nice food well made.

Hubby took me on a date for my birthday. 1st time there. Soo much fun. Amazing food and drinks.

Great place to sit, eat, and drink. It's our tradition to come here before (and after) a Lucas Oil event. Great friendly place.

Best place to go after a Colts game. Holds up great traditions! And food is great along with atmosphere

Slippery Noodle used to be a staple in my Colts game day rituals. I don't remember the last time I was inside for a game until this past week. We were tailgating with friends and found ourselves with about 45 minutes until kick off and no dinner yet. As we walked in, the crowd was thinning out but was still fairly busy. I had to hunt down a server so we weren't feeling very optimistic about an order before the game. We decided to take the risk and ordered potato skins and 2 drinks. Not only was our food out quickly, but we finished in likely less than 5 minutes. One might say we were just hungry but I assure you it was because they were so good. Service was quick, great and we got into our seats for the game with time to spare. Can't wait to return and maybe enjoy the food a bit longer than 5 minutes.

This review is for lunch at the bar on a Friday in mid-November while roadtripping through Ohio. service: Schmitty was a great bartender. Professional and helpful. bar: Handful of great beers on tap. I drank the house Dis Is It IPA ($7.50 as of 11/2025) and it's a great beer. food: My toasted Italian sub ($14.49) was pretty darned good. I went with tater tots. details: The place was very busy even for a Friday lunch. They have a small parking lot behind the restaurant and there are other surface lots in the area.

What a classic!!!! Feel like a Time Machine when you sit here, the decor gets you every time. You come here for the atmosphere or on game day, always a good time!!

My group has made the Slippery Noodle an annual tradition when visiting Indianapolis for a work conference. We have a few guys that play harmonica, drums, and guitar. Alongside pub grub, they offer plenty of drinks and the staff is tolerant enough to take care of the crowd. We never waited long for a drink. The space - historical, divey, blues music, patio, and plenty of seating inside. In the live music space there's also a second floor to watch the stage.

I got an issue of Imbibe magazine that featured Indy, so we took a weekend a hit up (almost all) of the recommendations. Honestly, the history of this bar is what gives it 4 stars. In food and beverage, it is an average bar with nothing notable that would leave me coming back. I was a bit surprised it was mentioned in the article as all of the other bars had unique cocktail menus. However, the history was great and we even got a tour from one of the staff members (it was early on a Saturday, so it wasn't too busy). There is even a bullet in wall allegedly for John Dillinger! As the oldest continually operating bar in Indiana - it's worth a stop!

Literally a hole in the wall bar with a restaurant attached. Been eyeing this place out every time I've been in Indy and ended up finally being able to go in. Bar aides great and you can mingle with people and the back side we got some tacos and beers. Would recommend this place for a night out and late night snacks. TVs are average and very limited.

If you love, live music and local flavor, you will love this place. Id you're more into open stage, there's a room for that as well as a room for a band in another area as well. Whether Indianapolis is hopping or if it's a slow night, this place is something you do not want to miss. The vibe is real.and the drinks are strong. They also have PAC Man and Asteroids!! I think historically this is one of the oldest bars in Indianapolis and haunted as well.

Finally went here for a beer and a meal. Tried to visit this place during a Colts Home Game but didn't get there early enough to truly experience the place. Last night we stopped by for dinner. They have live music every night. I had their Chef Salad and a side of Onion Rings that we shared. My son ordered their wings with Spicy BBQ Sauce and some with Lemon Pepper. I tried the BBQ wings - very nicely done. The Onion Rings and Chef Salad were great. Very nice food well made.

It's YE Gurl, back at it -- this time with dive bar energy! After watching SINNERS (hands down the greatest movie of 2025 so far, don't @ me) in full IMAX glory, we needed a nightcap with some soul. So we headed to Slippery Noodle, Indy's oldest bar, to do the dive bar scene the right way: live blues, strong drinks, and zero pretense. We grabbed a back table by the main band, which gave perfect people-watching views and a front-row seat to the vibes. Shoutout to Caroline, our server -- even while getting lowkey harassed by a creepy manager (ugh), she stayed gracious, funny, and fast. Tip that woman WELL. Here's what we ordered: 3 Tanqueray and Tonics - $24 (Kept the night moving with strong pours -- just how we like it.) Veggie Quesadilla - $13.99 (Greasy, cheesy, and dive-bar perfect -- exactly what you need to soak up gin.) Grilled Mahi Sandwich - $14.99 (Seemed healthy-ish, and no one got sick, but a gentle reminder: ordering "health food" at a dive is always a gamble. ) Jack Honey - $7.50 (A sweet little nightcap to finish strong.) Post-bar feels: Full, slightly buzzed, and loving life. This place is perfect for recent grads, Keke sessions with your people, or anyone who just needs live music and a low-key night where nobody's trying too hard. Final verdict: Slippery Noodle reminded me of Soloman's Mines in Chicago or a night out on Frenchmen Street in New Orleans -- gritty, soulful, and real. Support these institutions, y'all -- they don't make them like this anymore.

Super cool historic spot with live music on the weekends. Walking in on a Friday evening, we paid $5 cover and proceeded through the front bar back to where a band was setting up to play for the evening. Service was good, drinks and food were alright. The espresso martini is made with local coffee, creamy, and not overly sweet. In contrast, the Elwood (cherry vodka, amaretto, coke) was perfectly sweet and crispy on a hot summer night. When it's not so hot, I will be back to try the French onion soup - word on the street is that it's delish!

I saw a social media post with someone saying how good these wings were so I tried them!!!! The server was pleasant, I ordered to go so there isn't much serving that had to be done. The food came out freshly prepared, the taste was good! Wings were crispy even with the sauce on it and they were seasoned. The lemon pepper sauce is very unique, I've always gotten just the spice and butter when ordering this flavor. You can taste the lemon and there was a spicy kick not overwhelmingly spicy. I only gave a 4 because after about 2 wings it started to taste salty however; the celery sticks broke up the salty taste for me so I could enjoy the rest of my food. I would love to try other flavors and even more items on the menu!

I haven't been to Slippery Noddle in years like I believe back in 2018 which was under a different management. I decided to go Slippery Noddle Saturday night February 8th since I was already downtown at the IRT for a play called Nina Simone: Four Women. After, the Play ended at 7pm that's when I made my way down to Slippery Noddle, due to concert last night it took me a while to find parking. Once, inside of the building there was a $10 entry fee, Slippery Noddle is really big restaurant which I didn't realize that until last night, and I was trying to find where Tommy Baldwin & his band would play at. Slippery Noddle has two stages the big stage in the back, and the smaller one slightly close to the main bar. There are no stairs entering the building, I only seen stairs going down the lower level areas. Slippery Noddle is the oldest bar in state of Indiana, and there are so much historical facts about this place, from all the late great musicians that once played at Slippery Noddle like Muddy Waters along with others. Most people in Indy heard about the Slippery Noddle history as well as the Blues legends that have performed there, yet don't go there due to it been downtown. Slippery Noddle does have a parking lot that's small, you could park right across the street, street parking, or do ride share to Slippery Noddle. Slippery Noddle is known for having live Blues and Rock musicians on their stages. Harold and Lorean Yeagy acquired the business in 1963. The iconic Meridian Street bar is known for its vibrant jazz scene and spooky history. The Slippery Noodle Inn opened in 1850 as Tremont House, one of the first German clubs in Indianapolis, according to the bar's website. It's gone through a variety of name and ownership changes over the years: Concordia House, Germania House, Beck's Saloon, Moore's Beer Tavern and Moore's Restaurant. It was Moore's Restaurant during Prohibition and the beer still flowed. Legend has it that a basement passageway of the bar was used for people fleeing slavery via the Underground Railroad. Though there's no evidence to support this, the rumor has persisted, according to IndyStar archives. There are also some rumors the place is haunted, making it a stop on local ghost tours. Now, I noticed when I was by the main stage the lights was flickering a lot as if someone was playing with the lights when there was live music playing. My Server name was Rodney I ordered chicken wings (7), fries, coke, cocktail called Mission From God that tasted exactly like a grapefruit, one shot of crown royal peach, and 16oz modelo. The seven chicken wings, thick breading coat, meat was thick, juicy, hot and fresh which no complaints on the chicken wings. I'm pretty sure when the lights were flickering the ghosts were there for sure. Overall, I had a good time at the historic Slippery Noddle, I enjoy live music especially Blues and Rock, the food as well as the drinks were delicious. I'm for certain will be back at Slippery Noddle.

Had the steak special. Salad was fresh. Steak was seasoned perfectly and prepared expertly. The only drawback-and it was a minor one-the baked potato seemed to at the end of its heat lamp life. Service was good-didn't catch the waitress's name. We prefer the back room because we usually have a bigger party and the door kept being propped open for keg deliveries, so it was cold on a brisk day. On a side note, Rodney waited on us previously and he is one of the best servers I've ever been served by. Absolutely top of the line

Great historic place great music. Old history. Awesome. I highly recommend. Try it if that's what your looking for

What an amazing place with history! A friend rented out the top, upstairs part for a small gathering and the staff was on it! Friendly bar tender who also was observant for empty glasses and recalled orders when approaching for refills. The space was a bit tight for the number of people and made for close encounters. The best part was the free tour provided. We met a gentleman on the first floor and proceeded down to the cellar for a tour and history review for the building. So much history and what a great opportunity to get to experience and walk in the same space as those before us. Didn't try any food, just had drinks and would keep this in mind for next time I'm visiting Indy!

Came in on a Saturday night to enjoy live music and a few of the March madness games. There was a $10 cover because they had two bands that night. We chose to sit at the back bar with unobstructed views of both the tv and the stage. Our bartender was a female and she was wonderful! Super fast to tend to the lines that occasionally built up and she even walked down to the front bar to get me a beer that she didn't have on her tap. Con of sitting back at that bar was they only had miller and a local IPA on draft. We ordered a few beers and a plate of loaded nachos to split. The nachos were fine. I wish they had a little more cheese and sour cream, but the chips definitely stayed crunchy. The band was great. They played a variety of cover songs from bands like The Doors, Britney Spears, Red Hot Chili Peppers. The decor and ambiance were historic and inviting. I loved all of the posters and signs. We had a good time and I would definitely recommend stopping by while in the area!

QUICKIE REVIEW Surprisingly good salad had here. FOOD This is what I tried: -Grilled chicken salad Came here with a group and had a bunch of appetizers with the grilled chicken salad. Was shocked at how good it was. Chicken was not dry and was grilled just right. PARKING Yes but it is limited. I came around 3 and there was next to no spots left. SERVICE Had a cool waitress who checked on us frequently and kept us well hydrated PRICE You can expect around $25-ish for a meal with a few drinks on happy hour. TIP/OTHER THOUGHTS This place is located downtown and you could easily walk around to a few other venues from here.

Great atmosphere, solid food, good drinks and great prices! Love the live music there and cool atmosphere both inside and outside! Definitely will be back!

If you are from Indy, it's hard to imagine that you haven't at least heard of Slippery Noodle Inn, one of Indy's truly iconic bars and the kind of place that has a reputation that it truly lives into. Slippery Noodle is Indy's oldest continuously operating bar still located in its original location. Founded in 1850 as the Tremont House, Slippery Noodle is on the National Register of Historic Places. It started out as a "roadhouse" and has historically been owned by people of German descent. It has had several name changes over the years and became Slippery Noodle Inn around 1963 when Harold and Lorean Yeagy bought it - on a fun note, especially for those who know of the building's reputation for being haunted, the Yeagy's took possession on October 31st in 1963. Slippery Noodle has a rather amazing history - the "Inn" was a way station for the Underground Railroad during the Civil War. At one point, a bordello opened in what was once a luxurious inn. The bordello was actually open until 1953 when it closed after one customer killed another customer over a woman. During Prohibition, the Brady and Dillinger gangs used the building in back. Many of the historical touches are still in place or at least you can see them The Noodle has remained in the Yeagy family since that time. Hal took over the bar in 1985 after his father's death and since that time it has grown from a one room lunch counter into the Midwest's premiere blues club. These days, the reputation is much calmer. Slippery Noodle is the Midwest's premiere blues club and has hosted many of the greats. It has been visited by dozens of celebrities. It's now the oldest commercial building left standing in Indy and the Tremont House sign painted on the north side of the building dates back to the 1850s. Slippery Noodle is fairly accessible - easy to get into and mostly easy to get around, though for packed concerts it gets more challenging. There's also a basement area that would not be accessible. They do serve a full bar and also food. While most of the food is typical bar fare, they do have some creative diversions. Prices are fairly standard for bars, especially downtown. They do have daily drink specials and some food specials. The food is pretty good and they do also offer catering. Atmosphere is everything and there's an abundance of it here. Employees tend to be friendly in a "bluesy" sort of way. Slippery Noodle isn't necessarily a place I frequent, though it's a place I feel compelled to go on occasion including for live music. If you go during racing season, you'll almost definitely see some drivers and other celebs who come in and stay downtown often end up here. A great historic spot with a fascinating history and an atmosphere that practically screams out that history, Slippery Noodle isn't your hipster bar. It serves up great blues, awesome drinks, good food, and an immersive atmosphere.

This place is 100% on point. The bartenders have remembered my name, there's food available late, and the blues music takes me back to my favorite bars in New Orleans. There's some real talent in Indy! Come here for a fun night out and experience the Indy nightlife.

Their website said they were open so I walked a half mile from my hotel only to find that they were closed.

My sister and I went on a Thursday night and it took a while to get a table. Our server was friendly, but the service was very slow. The ambiance was relatively quiet, but a lot of noise on the street. We ordered the club sandwich and the Philly cheese steak sandwich. My club sandwich was ok, and my sister's sandwich was not good at all. I'd recommend fixing the menu.

The Noodle is as iconic as the city of Indianapolis itself. Known for hosting many of the great blues/jazz musicians, and a reputable pre/post game spot for Colts/Pacers games... or really any major downtown event. It's also known as the oldest standing commercial building & longest still-operating bar in Indy -- can you can see the history in just about every corner! Some of the bartops are as original as the house itself. Fee parking is available next to the building and across the street. Guarantee that if there's live music, there will be a cover. I think its usually no more than $10-15. Drinks and food prices aren't bad, comparable for most downtown bars. It's your standard bar food with a couple of flairs. Looks like they still have daily specials as well. No matter where you sit there will be staff around to serve or you can walk up to the bar on your own. Have never met a sour grape staffer there- I think there is a source of price for working at a well-known establishment! Cheers to the Noodle.

If you're looking for good bar food and drinks, this is your place! We went on a Colts game Sunday. We started with the nachos which were loaded to perfection- bacon, ground beef, tomatoes, onions, salsa, lettuce, cheese, and jalapeños. We also got the fried bosco sticks which were AMAZING! We got marinara and ranch sauce to dip them in. The wings were heavily breaded, which was my only complaint. It took a couple bites to even get to the chicken part of the wing. Other than that, they had great flavor. They had a pretty good beer selection and our waitress came by often to check on us!

One stop shop and it was amazing. Got to Indianapolis on a road trip pretty late and this came up as one of the most iconic bars in Indy. Well I wasn't disappointed in the food or the live band!! Pros: lots of food options and a variety. We had the Spinach Artichoke Dip which was topped with Buffalo chicken dip(like what!!!!), Deep fried Bosco Sticks, fish Sandwich and Jerk Chicken Sandwich. All were excellent choices and big portions. The waitress was very attentive despite it getting extremely crowded. Tatum was awesome‼‼ Cons: $10 cover charge

Love this place. Great food and great bands. Service has always been exceptional for me.

This place was so fun! Food was good, drinks were okay. Really enjoyed the music and atmosphere!

Food is fantastic. Service was great. The history is great and the ghosts of the past made their presence known.

This is a fun spot that not only has prime real estate, but good food to match the location. Friendly bartenders, affordable prices, generous portions, and almost a museum-like atmosphere. It doesn't matter if it's dinner with friends or a quick drink by yourself, this spot hits the mark. Get the spinach artichoke dip!!!

Waited 15 minutes for a server and 45 minutes for a wrap. Not busy at all. What a bummer. From out of state and couldn't wait to try this place

Friendly staff, excellent decor, great vibes, tasty food. Went in on a Wednesday afternoon. Between lunch and dinner rush. Seemed like the only people there were retired regulars, tourists, and me. Not quite a tourist but it was my first time in. I sat at the bar and was politely greeted. I got a Diet Coke and took the scene in. Every inch of the walls in its multiple rooms are plastered with memorabilia. Colts, blues brothers, cartoons, celebrities, autographs, Indians, pacers, musical acts, merchandise, posters. If it existed in the zeitgeist, its stapled to the wall of the slippery noodle somewhere. Staff are proud of where they work and the history behind it. Happily explained things to me as I waited. They handed me a brochure that specifically detailed its history, a great read once I got home. The layout is dizzying at first, but once you walk around it, poke your head in each room, you'll get the hang of it. They boast live music every night and I plan to return to enjoy it! I implore visitors to plan to spend time there and enjoy the music and a drink. It's an excellent place to do so.

Just average. Food was average. Service was average. Lunch with two beers was $50. Just not worth it.

They have great live music, arrive on weekends before 7:30 to beat the $10 cover charge. They also have very good nacho's. Tried the Tuesday 1/2 wine and steak dinner. Unfortunately would not recommend it. The wine bottle was 325 ml not a full size 750ml bottle. The steak was a very chewy New York strip. Salad iceberg lettuce a bit brownish. However the baked potato was delicious. Next time I would just order the spud. But the dinner was in expensive Go for the music. They also have half price drinks on thursdays

I can't even lie this is my go to spot when I want to get out and hear some decent live music, food, drinks and friends. You never know what kind of crowd you're going to encounter when you come in. Sometimes it's packed and other times you will feel like you're having a private concert. Either way you will love and enjoy yourself. My favorite foods to order are any of the quesadillas and the wings (mango habanero). The wings are a great consistency too. I find most places who waive their wings the outside ends up soggy but I've never experienced that here which is great. The staff is always very friendly and pretty attentive. No matter what time of day I have been; the staff is always on point. If you're looking for great service, good food and decent music.....stop in!

The Slippery Noodle Inn was on our groups radar the entire time we were in Indy. The oldest bar in Indiana, we walked by it several times on our other excursions, but stopped in after our beloved Eagles snuck out a nail biter against the Colts. The bar was packed with boisterous Eagles fans and the back dining area was full of diners and Eagles fans with an eye on the TV's checking out the 4:30pm NFL games. Unfortunately we had the perfect storm for a terrible wait time. Crazy busy bar, kitchen equipment issues, shortage of staff, the after game rush of the thirsty/hungry on top of their regular patrons. We eventually had a waitress come to us and take our orders. I shared a combo wing basket with a friend. $14.99 you get 11 wings with three types of sauce. We went with garlic, buffalo and bbq. They were a nice portion and had nice flavors. The buffalo chicken salad I ordered was a huge portion and a nice dinner meal for $13.49. My son went with the kids noodles and fries for $6.99. The fettuccine noodles were good according to him. Drink wise they had a few local IPA's on tap including their house Dis-Is-It IPA by Metazoa served in plastic cups. We relaxed, hung out with a couple of rounds and chatted about football. In the end we decided a victory lap around the downtown area was in the cards on our final night in Indy. This place has a lot of history and was family friendly. The staff was great considering how slammed they were. Thanks again guys!

Nice night out! Me n hubby have not been here for 10 years. #1 Music- good bands #2 Vibe- friendly, laid back #3 Food- the noodle sticks we had were big bread sticks stuffed with cheese, brushed with garlic butter, and sprinkled with shredded parm. Choice of alfredo or tomatoes sauce. We had alfredo. The sticks were a nice size, delicious and filling. #4 Service- not the best. I ended up going to the bar order my food and drink and picking back up myself

During one of my football game tour, I ended up in Indianapolis watching a Colts game. Heard about this happening spot after the game, and glad I went. No food that I knew of, but plenty of good drinks from awesome bartenders! Definitely a party atmosphere even though the team lost. Met some cool people that's for sure! They even gave me some bar magnets when I told him I was visiting out of state. Always a plus in my book!

We arrived at this spot at 9:20 PM on a Friday, and an employee walked up to us and said "I'm sorry but 21 and over only at this time" and we were disappointed because we had a 12 year old in our party, we drove all the way from Ohio to eat here. But later he said he had found a table for us. We sat down and ordered some food! Alfredo was smooth, creamy, cheesy and delicious! Mozzarella sticks were gooey and delicious, I had a massive cheese pull. I do recommend eating here! (P.S. the live music was great.)

Awesome place to visit if you are in town. Oldest bar in Indianapolis. Service was fantastic and friendly. Blues played on Saturday night. Very chill place, thank you for the hospitality. Your friend from California

Historic building which is a relaxed lunch spot fleury TVs during the day and a blues bar at night. Still need to come down to watch some blues! Went here for lunch a few times now. Look on their website to check out their daily 9.99 lunch special. Went a month or so ago and got the meatball sub, went yesterday and got the chicken cordon Bleu wrap. Both were great! Loved the bread and sauce for the sub. Chicken cordon Bleu wrap was fresh and flavorful. They come with a side a drink. The chicken chili I got with the wrap was really good. I'll update this once I come back for a blues show!

Do not go here if you are a person of color, my friend and I were asked to leave the establishment for no reason at all. We attempted to order food and drinks, but we're not even noticed by the bartender. For some reason, he had it in his mind to ask us to leave. This left a very bad taste in our mouth. I leave this review as a warning to people of color stay away from the slippery noodle.

I got the Slippery Noodle sticks, the jumbo tenderloin and my friend got the wings. Everything was incredible. The service was very fast as well. If you are going to Indy, you gotta stop here.

Really cool atmosphere. Love it! HOWEVER I feel I was being ignored by the staff. Maybe too busy? I had to waive someone down. Anyway. Beer selection was good. We'll see how the rest of the night goes.

Multiple kitchens and live entertainment! Soak up the atmosphere. Locals and visitors alike flock for food, drink, and entertainment. Great for groups! Always a good time!

The service was great. The place is interesting because of its history. The food was good too. Especially the fried pickles and pretzels bites. It's a good greasy spoon type of place.

A must visit when in downtown Indy. Key location in the city. The history and ambiance were so much fun. We just got drinks and appetizers. Drinks were cold and delicious. Apps were OK nothing too great but definitely nice to munch on. Love to go back sometime for live music.

I was soooo happy to finally make it to the Slippery Noodle Inn! My husband had visited numerous times over the past few years for work. He purchased me a t-shirt that I have been wearing for a while so it was always on my list to make it here! Fortunately enough, my work had a conference in Indianapolis two weeks ago so I was able to check them off my list. The Slippery Noodle Inn is the oldest bar in Indianapolis. You can definitely tell by the set up of the place that it has been around a while since it is broken into different rooms. I spent most of my time at the front bar or on the patio since we always have a big group. The night we sat outside, the server was nowhere to be found so most people went inside to order or just relocated inside. I am not sure what the hold up was but it really took 30 minutes to get a beer. The service inside was always on point. The one night they were supposed to have live music in the back bar, it was severely postponed due to sound issues and them not having someone on site to help fix it. That was disappointing that I never got to hear live music. All of my coworkers who ate here really enjoyed their meals and my husband has nothing but great things to say about their menu. While I was visiting they got a new stock of t-shirts in so I was able to buy a new one to replace the one I have had for years. They have a bunch of new, fun colors. I would say you have to check out the Slippery Noodle when visiting Indy!
