World Famous HotBoys Fountain Square

WOAH - best hot chicken sandwich I’ve ever had! Mild plus was perfect. Tender juicy chicken with a great crunch. Tasty. Fried Mac and cheese balls were a treat. Service so much fun! Space TONS of fun! My husband said his burrito was the best breakfast burrito he’s ever had. Can’t wait to be back!

The food is really good, fresh, and the chicken is juicy! If you love HOT this is for you! (Yes they have mild as well)! I ordered the Hot level not Hot hot and wow!!! It was HOT 🥵 loved it. The gentleman warns you of all the peppers in it and they don't just give you a dash of it. They put it on there!!! Awesome job!

The food has been inconsistent primarily the "Chicken Nuggies". The order I had today was mostly breading. They were usually lightly breaded and was in a smaller box. The service today was also terrible. Another customer and I had to wait at least 10 minutes for our food already on the pick up table. There was only one worker visible and he was stuck at the register. No other employee was seen. I believe the others were on a smoke break from what I could see from the parking lot. Usually Hot boys is my place to go, but I'm more hesitant now.

AMAZING HALAL FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH!!!! 10/10 recommend. Better than Dave’s tenfold. Huge portions. Cool spot. Quick service. You gotta goooo

This is a chill spot came for lunch and had a drink. I could say the loaded potato could use more seasoning. But I was excited to dive in 🍴. I also ask if the potatoes was washed or rinsed they said it was washed so I ate that too 🤭

Everyone is so friendly and helpful, staff and patrons. The inside of the restaurant is dark but very much cozy and clean. If you work for Lilly or IU Health, food is 5% off during business hours! They host for local fashion scenes as well. Wonderful business!

Just extremely good chicken. Cooked perfectly. Super tender inside. The crunch was excellent. And I love the fact that you can order medium plus, rather than just medium or hot. Medium plus was absolutely perfect! When I go to other restaurants, and I talk to them about my spice level, I always say, “between medium and spicy,”, and they actually have it as an option! Brilliant! We ordered these ‘ to go’ and brought them back to the Airbnb to watch Purdue go to the finals! This chicken must be good luck!

I've been wanting to try this place for a couple years and finally got to and maaaan they didn't disappoint....those loaded fries were 🔥🔥🔥🔥 the chicken sandwich was 🔥🔥🔥 if you like spicy....this the place BUT IT AIN'T FOR THE WEAK 😂😂🥵

If you're a fan of spicy chicken, this spot is a must-visit. To begin with, the place is known for its incredible spicy chicken, offering multiple levels of heat to cater to every palate. Whether you're a spice novice or a heat enthusiast, they have something for you. The restaurant itself is small and cute, with a cozy atmosphere that's perfect for casual dining. In addition, they don't just stop at great food. They also sell branded merchandise at their locations. My go-to order is their Sando Meal #1, which is consistently tasty and satisfying. Their mac and cheese is my favorite side, creamy and perfectly seasoned, balancing out the heat from the chicken. Moreover, I've been to this restaurant several times, and I'm always impressed by how clean and neat the space is. Furthermore, the service is outstanding. The team is always friendly, efficient, and ready to help with recommendations or adjustments to your meal. Overall, this place is a gem for spicy chicken lovers, combining great food, excellent service.

This is a must-try! I am not into super spicy food, but I got the Tender Sando Meal in Mild and it was perfect. Still a burn, but enjoyable! My fries were delicious and the coleslaw on the sandwich took it to another level! I also really enjoyed the bun. I love this Hotboys location for the VIBES. It's very small (maybe 10 tables), but there's always a constant stream of takeout orders whenever I'm there. It's such a cool spot for a quick bite if you're in the Fountain Square area!

I have eaten here at the Fountain Square location twice. And both times the experiences were underwhelming. Service: The first time my partner and I went, ordering was fine, it was when I was asked for my phone number and then told him my phone number afterwards when he said "OKAY, hold on." He immediately went from 0-100 in terms of his attitude as if I had done something wrong or said something wrong. The next problem I had with this first encounter was that I ordered ranch, and he looked me in my eyes and said "it's gonna be a dollar extra." And he didn't say it with a normal/general attitude of letting me know that ranch costs extra, he said it in a very upset demeaning way that made me tell him "yeah, I know.". I get my order from the same guy, he forgets my ranch. No problem right? Wrong. I walk back in and ask for my ranch and again, he goes, "you know it's a dollar right?" And that's when I tell him him "you forgot to give it to me". His face turned red, not from embarrassment but from being angry. This guy at the counter has a HUGE chip on his shoulder and shouldn't be working as cashier. The second trip I had last night. A small group of us order food, again, no problem there. We get a text telling us that our food is done. Well me and a friend get up to grab our food and no one comes out. The woman who took our order says verbatim "just wait a second, he'll come out with your food". We wait for 5 minutes and the woman who checked us out say "can you look up?" Referencing the sign that says "pick up here". I was livid. Absolutely rude behavior. First says that someone will hand me my food to can't you grab your food yourself? Shocked. Food: food here has always been great but last night the food made our stomachs upset, but I know that hey have made quality food before. Ambiance: they have music turned up to a 20/10 blasting out in the front of their patio that is absolutely loud. Other than that they have a great location and the inside of the place looks cool. They need new staff asap. Extremely unfriendly and don't care to talk back to the customer, I'm not sure when things have changed that when you go pay to eat out that you get antagonized. As a side note, also noticed some body who wasn't an employee go around the counter and begin checking himself out or editing his own order. Again, this place needs somebody to do a full evaluation of who works here.

I was here for a meeting with some of my alumni before they had to leave for college, we ordered our food and it came out pretty fast! I enjoyed the chicken sandwich with fries, it was very tasty! I also get training wheels for spice, because while I enjoy spice, I don't want my sinus draining as I eat. Love how it's decorated there is a fun mix of lights colors and other interesting decor. Check them out if you are in the ft square area.

Normally I wouldn't review somewhere I've been so many times, but this was the next HotBoys experience I've had. The food was so delicious and it was a perfect day to sit outside in FSQ.

The food was good and we loved both the Mac n cheese and the fries. I appreciated the options for spice and heat so my mild was doable and not burning my oh so sensitive taste buds. The wait was short even though they were busy, and we loved the ability to sit outside in the sunny day. The music choices were just not our thing and sort of ruined the experience for us. I work with a diverse group and this found some of the lyrics to just be over the top - so be warned about that if going and eating in. We might go again as the food was good, but would only take it to go.

Second time in Indnpls, but the first time for World Famous Hotboys. The talk is primarily about how hot is Hot and how much of the heat can you stand. As a huge fan of spice, but a hungry hungry contestant who wanted to enjoy my food rather than suffer, I opted to try the Medium Hot. Will admit that it was an ideal amount of spice to have heat but still enjoy. Brandon ordered the Hot and pretty much suffered the entire time. The few bites that I tried of the Hot were tolerable but it could have been a completely different experience had that been my entire sandwich, it gets stronger the more of it you eat. Do they sell milk? That could help?

I've been hearing about this place for a long time so I was finally able to go check it out during Fountain Square's "First Friday" monthly event! I can happily say it was worth the wait! The chicken is amazing! I had the Chicken & Waffles with mild heat & my wife had the loaded chicken fries that were STACKED with toppings! (Not pictured because they were half gone by the time I got my food and as you can see I was so excited that I almost forgot to take a picture myself!) It can be a little tight inside, but they have a very nice patio outside and I love the vibe and old diner type feel to it. Lastly, if you love spicy, you'll love how spicy things can get but be cautious!

It was a very relaxed, casual atmosphere playing hip hop. The big downside was there was a guy sitting near us that was whispering under his breath and then yelling out curse words and cursing the city. Not that it was the fault of the restaurant, but a bit interesting lol. The food was incredible. I've been craving some fried chicken, never can get it right at home, and my husband and I ordered way too much food for us to eat there and brought the rest home. Service was very relaxed but friendly. Thank you folks for the delicious food! You order at a counter and they do bring your food to you, but then you dispose of your trash when you're finished. We ordered three sando combos. One thigh filet medium plus, the other two white meat medium. One order of loaded fries, and a Smakin' Mac n' Baked Potato. The food was absolutely delicious.

A cool, vibrant chicken spot open late on the weekends located in the heart of Fountain Square. This place always have the best bangers blasting through the speakers and top-notch chicken sandwiches and tenders with customizable spice levels. I'm a baby when it comes to the spice so I stick with the mild, but they have options with more heat or no heat at all! Fun, friendly staff, and I never have a problem finding parking on the weekends. Definitely my personal favorite hot chicken restaurant in Indy :)

Was in the area for a show downtown. We got into town late and the show started at 9:30, so we didn't get a chance to have dinner until almost 1:30am. My wife found Hotboys on DoorDash so we decided to give it a try. She got the chicken and waffles...I got the Guap fries. Wow! We absolutely loved it. The chicken had a fantastic flavor. Fries were crispy. Waffle was fluffy and sweet and paired perfectly with the spices on the chicken. Couldn't have been happier with our late night dinner. If we are ever back in Indy, we will make a point to get them again. Highly recommended.

I had an awesome takeout experience at Hotboys. When you walk in, there is a little counter you order at. There are menus at the counter, as well as immediately to the left when you walk in. I call this out because there isn't a big menu board elsewhere. The service at the counter was friendly and willing to take my order/help however possible. As part of the ordering process, you give them your phone number, and then you wait until you get a text indicating the food is ready, at which point you go to the pickup station at the back of the restaurant. While the process was a little different than what I'm used to, it was all very smooth and easy. The food itself was awesome. As all good chicken places do, they threw a piece of white bread in the to-go box to soak up steam and avoid a soggy chicken experience. I got the mild+ spice level because I was a little scared to go hotter, and this was a great mix of flavors without being too hot. Next time I will try the medium. The chicken is crispy and the ranch dipping sauce was also great - not a traditional buttermilk ranch, but still excellent. For my complementary side I chose the slaw, which was just okay. I will look for a different side next time. I also got Mac fritters on the side. While they were good, especially the breading/seasoning on them, they were a bit too rich for me and I will only get them again if I have someone interested in sharing them (as seen in my image, they come in a five count). The only other thing I will call out is that the portion sizes aren't huge, especially for what you pay. It's not a too significant of a lack of value to bump me down from a 5 star review, but it is worth calling out. If you're on the hungrier side, I'd recommend ordering more than you think. I will absolutely be back in the future, likely to try their sandwiches and see how they compare to the tenders!

YEEESSSSSSS Ma'am and Sir!!! The Swamp Greens is most definitely YummyLicious!!! Mr. Todd is ice cold aka cooler than cool!!! The Famous HotBoys GentleLadies and GentleMen!!! Come meet Todd and eat!!! Very YummyLicious!!!

I would like to start by saying I LOVE their chicken sandwich! The chicken was so juicy & flavorful. The sauce went to well with both the sandwich & the fries! I liked the fact that they had the mango flavored Jarritos drink, there's not many places that have that flavor available. I also loved that they had South Park on the tv, definitely gave me nostalgia vibes. From the outside windows having the led flame lights, you could guess the inside has fun stuff that would catch your eye. I loved the light up chicken head masks, the flame led light portrait & the race car flags hanging from the ceiling. They also sale Hotboys hoodies! The service was great! The guy taking our order filled me in on the flavors & which options were the most popular ( I chose the Southern flavor). We didn't have to wait long at all for our food. They don't have a parking lot so you would have to park on the street.

lLove this place-from the quality of food, to the cool atmosphere, it's a treat to visit. I accidentally reached the owner's cell phone when trying to place an order and he was nothing short of amazing! he knows how to treat customers and has to be why this is such a successful place! you should give them a try!

This spot is always a party. Great music, great food, great people. Listen to the warnings and do not get hot hot unless you are a masochist and like it to burn going in and coming out.. otherwise any other heat and flavor is delicious! The drinks here are amazing and they have an outdoor section to enjoy them in when it's warmer. A must go-to for anyone in Indy or visiting. They were based out of Cali before opening their Indy location, and have another location in Carmel now that I have not been to yet.

What a fun place to eat and dance! Who would think you'd have so much fun at a restaurant? I had chicken tenders with a side of collard greens. I tried the grimace (grape) adult frosty and it was sooo good in this heat! We had a group of 10 of us. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed their food. The staff was very helpful, explaining the menu to us. The menu is a lot to look at and comprehend, haha . I was impressed by how the staff handled the hustle and bustle with the crowd. The place is nonstop busy! We went on a Thursday night and they had karaoke outside. How exciting!! Music, food, karaoke, adult beverages, what more do you want? There is free parking located on the street.

Loved the food! And every 4th Saturday there is a Live D.J spinning the wheels of steel! This was the after party for a concert I recently attended in Naptown! Plus I've always like the Fountain Square area.

Great service, great vibes great atmosphere. I absolutely LOVE a good chicken sandwich. This one is at the top with some of the best of them. I could tell with them using a chicken thigh it brought the flavor and juiciness to another level. I don't normally go for the "hot" dusted style stuff but this flavor was elite still with it. Got a couple tenders and they were perfectly made. No surprise given the perfect crispy of the sandwich as well with the breading. Side of Mac and cheese wasn't amazing, but what would I expect. It still did its job in a way.

Ordered on DoorDash and was not expecting this to be as amazing as it was. Highly recommend! The chicken has the perfect crisp and spice. 100/10

The meat on the chicken sandwich was so disgusting that I couldn't eat it. It was gray, dry and stringy. We ordered takeout and didn't open the box until we got home. I tried contacting the store but never received a response. We've been here a few times and never had a bad experience like this.

Such a cool spot. Amazing chicken!!! So spicy. Efficient operation it was crowded but the service was so fast. Really glad hotboys chose Indy to expand east from west coast.

Stopped in with my friend who is visiting from Cali and I'm glad we did! Our food was GREAT, our adult slushee was PERFECT, and the cashier was NICE! My friend went with their famous Sando and I tried their breakfast burrito We both enjoyed our food! The decorated walls near the restroom is so unique and cute!

My girlfriend and I stumbled on this place a year ago, while walking to a different restaurant. The overall look of the building caught our eye and we decided to try it out! Since our first visit our food has always been hot and delicious. We've been to Nashville style hot chicken places before and this place blows them out of the water in regard to food, service and ambiance. The spice level is higher than you'd expect, I'd recommend the Medium spice first time you go. In addition to the crispy, hot chicken you also get a house made sauce that can be best described as a super savory ranch dressing. It compliments the chicken beautifully. The restaurant is decked out in eccentric and whacky decor that borders on maximalist and it's what makes this place so charming and allows it to stand out. In addition to delicious food they also have a bar serving up beers on tap, hard seltzer, and mixed drinks. If you go in the evening, prepare for it to be busy. Especially in the summer! You'll see people enjoying some food and drinks on a warm summer night on their patio. Definitely THE best chicken in the Indy Metro area.

Favorite chicken in Indy! Limited seating inside, but they have outdoor seating as well. I usually order pick-up & it's always excellent. The decor inside is cool & it's a good place to take photos for online content. They do cool pop up shops & events when the weather is nice. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Wow. Very good chicken. I had the tenders. 2 large and the were so juicy and the spice /mild was awesome. I could maybe have done the mild + for a bit more heat. My boys got medium at they said it was quite a bit hotter than mine. The Sando w thigh meat and slaw looked good. Mac cheese was rich and good and we liked a bit of spice on the fries. The sauce is like Canes. The wings on the waffles were large! Cute decor. Very fun. Would recommend.

What an institution. As a native Californian it's pretty cool to see a CA business open their one out of state location in Indy. I've never had it before because I don't spend much time in the Bay Area but no doubt the region has some of the best food in America. I've been here a couple of times, the Hoosier fries are the perfect way to destroy your body in the best way. Amazing. The chicken sandwiches are great, even a vegan option which is nice. The heat levels are there so be careful.

Great sandwich!! Traveling on business and pulled up Yelp to find a good local place. This caught my eye. Their best seller is The Sando Meal, which is a chicken sandwich, with a patty made from thigh meat, pickles, cole slaw and their special sauce. It comes with a side and I chose the collard greens, which were very flavorful and hot (as in just off the stove). Apropos to the name, you choose the level of hot sauce that is put on the sandwich. I went with medium plus. I like spicy foods and can tolerate some high heat, but I wasn't looking to push any boundaries today. I found medium plus to be very pleasant. I'd probably step up to hot on next visit. The vibe inside is awesome with colorful decor, setting it apart from an otherwise fast food setting. The music was New Order, bringing me back to an 80's mood.

Loved this spicy chicken delight! I'm so glad that the friendly employee warned me about how the spice levels work before I ordered though- a little goes a long way. So I ordered some mild tendies along with some crispy fries. The mild sauce was spicy! But just enough that I didn't feel like my face would melt off. The chicken was hot and juicy and did not disappoint. The crinkle fries had a spicy sprinkle on them too which was really good. The restaurant is small for sit down eating but we got lucky to grab one of a few booths. Definitely will be stopping by again for some more World Famous!

Tried this place recently and was really impressed. Got chicken fingers and etouffe and both were really outstanding. My wife really enjoyed her chicken sandwich and collard greens. Fun atmosphere as well and service was excellent. Will definitely go back!

Great sandwiches. Outrageous prices. Two chicken thigh sandwiches, fries and two drinks for $40 is ridiculous, and then to turn that tip screen around for a go? Plus, fries were ice cold. For $40 you couldn't make a fresh batch of fries?

Hotboys has me feeling like a hotboy after a 5/5 lunch today! This place is the real dill! My highlights: simple menu, fantastic vibes and powerful chicken meals. You know how superhero comics struggle with scaling villains to make the next one better than the last? This place takes this concept, crushes it, and scales their chicken hot-ness perfectly. Great spice and flavor all around. The staff is laid back and they care about their chicken and customer service. Today, it was faster to sit in and eat than waiting in any drive-thru. I'm only mad that I waited this long to try it. WILL be back asap because I loved it. Easy 5/5. Thanks to the team for bringing this gym to the indy food scene!

The place was pretty busy but that was expected on a Friday. Our wait wasn't long at all. So the food....the chicken was pretty dry and bland. I wanted to like it so much though. The fries had a red dusting on them which I thght was seasoning salt but i think it was chili powder again I think. I don't understand why you'd put chili powder on fries. The service was great and tje people were nice.

During our west coast road-trip, we stumbled upon the downtown Indianapolis place and it did not disappoint‍

I stopped by here randomly with a cousin and they did not disappoint. The music was great, service was fast, and I was a chicken so I got the basic spice level with the chicken but it was delish. I did like their sauce. They have a parking lot on the side of the building which is helpful in fountain square. I will be back!

Perfect date night spot with my man. The wings, the Bonuts and the chill staff made it a great night. Such a vibe.

We love Hotboys and stop in to the FS location frequently! It's a crowd pleaser, even my mom loves it! Love the tenders and guape fries! I love the hip hop feel when you walk in. The decor is fun and there's always something to look at!

Loved it!! I got a salad and fries with medium spice and it was perfect. The fries are seasoned & cooked perfectly to a crisp. Salad was massive & loaded with chicken. The owner is super nice and welcoming! They play good music and overall have such a good vibe going at the FS location. Will definitely be back soon!!!

This was my first time trying this place and I'm so glad we did! I have to say - it might be my favorite new place for wings and fried chicken. We did carry out - and service was relatively fast. The inside decor is very interesting with all kinds of lights and decorations. We ended up with a few things for the family: the wings meal (you get about 5 wings) with greens, a 5 pack of chicken tenders and a few orders of fries. The wings meal was more than enough for one person, but not enough to share with someone if it's your only meal. I did them without the breading (naked) so it came with a dry rub. So tasty! I LOVE spicy foods (for real - the spicier the better). I did the medium+ which was perfect for me. It's pretty dang spicy - so if you don't like spice, get the lowest level possible. Even the mild+ had a small kick. Fries were really good and dusted with their seasoning. The tenders were huge. Sorry for the bad picture but wanted to share. There is half a tender in there because I had to try it! I'll definitely be coming back often!

Took a long lunch with my sister and finally showed her my absolute favorite spot in fountain square. I ordered the tender sando meal with the southern flavor because I didn't really want my mouth burning and some fries to go with it. The sandwich was really as always and I'm pretty sure my sister has a new chicken spot. The service was amazing and we got our food pretty quick. We loved all the music that was playing and she loved all the decorations and cool things to look at. Definitely will take my other sister here so she can love it too!

Yooooo!!! When I was 19 I dated a chick who was a manager at a store in the Circle Center mall. She was super cute and gave off "I go to youth group, but listen to Smashing Pumpkins and Wu-Tang when my parents aren't home" vibes! I thought I knew what I was getting into, but when I went to a party at her spot in Fountain Square, I WAS NOT READY!!! She was on some WELCOME TO THE WILDSIDE stuff! Between the psychedelic lighting, "incense", cosmic decor, and post "I kissed dating goodbye" wardrobe choices, I had a feeling I would both not forget AND forget much of what would transpire in the following phases of time! In a similar fashion, I had heard about HotBoys...saw the sign on Virginia Ave...I've had Nashville Hot Chicken IN Nashville...but I was NOT ready!!!! First of all, as soon as I walked in the door I had to pause to make sure I wasn't tripping. The organized chaos which is the decor along with the trippy colored LED ceiling and Sound Garden's "Black Hole Sun" playing through the speakers had me thinking I slipped into a variant timeline. It took me a second to realize, "I'm straight...this place is wild tho"! Lol! Cool cool! Then I ordered the Sami...figured sense it was my first time I'd keep it simple with the chicken sandwich and bev. I love heat, but I decided to go with the Medium to gauge how they define "hot"! Dominic, who was running things that day looked at me with a "I hope you know what you're getting into look" I'm sure he's given about every customer that's walked in the door and ordered anything Mild and above. When he brought it out there was a little extra sprinkle of that crimson dry rub on the chicken as if to give one last warning...the "F Around" level was about to intersect with "Find Out"! Imma just make it all the way plain! HotBoys chicken sami is THE BEST HOT CHICKEN SANDWICH in Indy AND Nashville that I've had!!!!! The chicken was perfectly fried! Just the right amount of breading and plenty of hot and juicy chicken. The heat level, was IMHO, spot on! I'm too old for paying for food I can't eat. It was hot enough that I could enjoy the flavor of the chicken and the house sauce that perfectly complimented the dry rub, while also giving me a nice afterglow of the heat on my lips! Pro-tip...If you're not sure about heat level, start lower than you think and then go up from there.

Oh my! Oh my! This is the kind of spice that I would refer to as BOMB! Please note Medium isn't for the weak hearted, it is the actual cry your face out, clear your sinuses off and clear your head out kind of spice! I chose Medium spice and I so did NOT regret it. I ordered chicken tenders and the tenders itself were simple but the spice combined with the light sweetness of southwest was just apt. I totally fell in love with Hotboys! The decor itself is pretty eclectic and being a good weather day had all the cool vibes of fountain square. Parking wasn't an issue and that was such a plus in Foutain square. Hotboys reminded me of my spice and food level back home and I am a happy camper! P.S forgot to take a pic of tenders in my excitement

I can see why they are World Famous! The chicken at Hotboys was soooo good! I had the training wheels and my husband had mild +, we both wish we would've kicked it up a notch but you never know when first trying a new hot chicken spot. Don't be afraid, they really do start out mild. The tenders are huge - entire chicken breasts basically. It was nearly $40 for our two meals, so maybe a little pricey. But you also pay for the awesome ambiance and a nice walk through Fountain Square. Parking on the street is free. Our food came out super quick and the employees were awesome! 5/5 - no doubt.

Hotboys is fire every time. The food is insanely good (be careful on the spice level, they get insanely hot) and the vibes are immaculate. Their tenders and the tender sando are where it's at, and you have to have the fries with it. The inside of the restaurant is filled with really cool street art and unique fixtures that make it feel like you're anywhere but Indiana. Super fun 10/10

If you're looking for a late night spot in the Indianapolis area this is it. A great choice. Great chicken tenders with so many levels of heat. The medium heat was not overpowering and we probably could go up a notch. The fries topped with chicken was really tasty. The chicken was tender, flavorful and moist. The owner was working the register and was friendly and helpful. Colored lights and lasers were going and music was booming creating a nice vibe with an eclectic mix of customers. There is indoor seating and out door seating. Would highly recommend and I will return on my next trip to Indy.

I've been three times in the last two weeks and plan to be back again! Get the Guap fries! The cheese they put on the fries is . They always have some boozy concoction to try too! I've gotten their jello shots and a cotton candy milkshake!

I do really like the food here - the vegan chicken sandwich option especially. It makes sense that they'd have a great plant-based option considering they hail from California. Very substantial and flavorful. My main beef, which doesn't make sense with the biz hailing from Cali, is their packaging situation. And I get things may have changed because of covid, but every order is made to-go style, whether you're eating there or not. This includes the styrofoam container, plastic utensils, all in a plastic bag. Broke my heart to see at least 10 customers like me while we were there, eat inside and promptly throw the plastic bag (and everything else) in the trash. Why is that bag necessary?? Just so wasteful and honestly weird. The playlist's music was also some of the most obscene lyrics I've ever heard in my life. And there were children there... I'm not a mom and their parents didn't make a fuss but it sure made me uncomfy. Food's good but I'll probably think again about coming back for these reasons.

I am still in disbelief that the chicken sandwich I just had was not made of actual chicken. It was incredibly tender, flavorful, and spiced to perfection. I ordered it from this restaurant I stumbled upon while searching Yelp for a late lunch, thankfully Yelp knew I'd be looking for Vegan/Vegetarian options and highlighted the option. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that they also offer vegan options, which made me decide to give it a try. As I parked my car, I was welcomed by a playlist of classic rock hits from the nineties, which set the tone for the restaurant's throwback and rock-inspired decor. During a lull in my midday, I had the opportunity to chat with one of the cousins who run the place, and they shared some interesting tidbits about the restaurant's history and how it ended up in Fountain Square. Their greeting and service were top-notch, making me feel at ease and valued as a customer. But let's talk about the food. This place is a must-visit for vegans and non-vegans alike. The vegan chicken sandwich was a masterpiece, with a perfect level of breading, tenderness (especially considering it was not made of meat), and just the right amount of spice. The only thing I would have wished for was more sauce, slaw, and pickles, but the taste was so addictive that I devoured the whole sandwich in one go. The fries that came as a side were also noteworthy, with a well-balanced seasoning. To top it off, I ordered an adult frosty to cool off from the heat of the sandwich, and it was a great complement to the meal. And as if all of this was not enough, the restaurant also boasts a full bar, making it a win-win-win-win situation. I highly recommend you give it a try!

Noticed this joint when we went down to Fountain Square area of downtown Indy. It's right across Wildwood Market. My partner and I decided to check it out because there was a steady stream of people going in and out and we do love some hot chicken. They did some remodeling of the spot outside and inside .. it needed it. It was super festive inside which was fun and outside, they added more seating and I think even some fans and/or heating element for the winter months. The staff was super friendly which is always a plus. The chicken and coleslaw was yummy - they have 3 heat levels and I got mile with a hint of medium - I gotta say it definitively has serious kick! That's saying something because my partner and I love spicy food. We think this place is going to do good - good food and awesome friendly service is always a good combo for success!!
