I love this place! The servers are always fun and the food is always fantastic. It's becoming one of my favorite places in Broad Ripple. The view on the patio is nice along the canal.
Hamid Alan9aryDecember 5, 2023reat place for seafood The tuna salad was good, tuna tartar 👍🏼So was the MahiMahi Everyone here were super friendly Highly recommend
They have far more than just nachos and tacos. Steaks, sandwiches, pasta... It's all wonderful.
What a great place, and a great atmosphere. Staff is so friendly, and the food is unreal. Make sure to ask about the specials since they change all the time, and have one of their draft beers.
Ben RuoffMarch 3, 2013Some of the best food in broadripple, with the best local beers on tap. Great chill atmosphere, crowded in the summer, can have live music on occasion during the summer months
Taylor SJuly 19, 2015Bartender gave a great suggestion. This is the perfect summer drink. Deep Eddy Ruby Red and soda. Great atmosphere and live music!
Awesome, dog friendly patio. Great selection of beer, wine, and variety of food. Always good service and great experiences.
Scott BennettAugust 8, 2014The service is incredible. Rachael Bennett rocks and all the staff is great fun. Wonderful Bloody Mary bar great music. Love this place
everyone better be gettin' those fish tacos!!!! blackened with avocado (everything should be with avocado!) And sit outside if you can!!!!
Try the Grilled Bacon And Cheese Sandwich With Tomato Basil Soup - So tasty on a cold fall day. I loved it #food
It doesn't matter how hot it is outside, there are always tables in the share on the patio. Plus, the view is something not to be missed. The name Flatwater on the Canal couldn't be more accurate.- If you are hungry, order a plate of pulled pork nachos. They are to die for. If you ask for a side of BBQ sauce you get an even deeper experience! Delicious.
Surprisingly interesting vegan options. Seitan salads, starters, and tacos.
- Try the Chicken Pot Pie - This was great on a real cold day #veggies #chicken
- Try the Creamy Basil Chicken Salad - Great salad, it was so fresh. @flatwaterripple
Christopher ClineApril 21, 2013Ask for the Hoosier Tenderloin "Buffalo Style"... you'll be glad you did.- Try the Turkey Bacon And Swiss On A Pretzel Bun - So tasty. #food
- Try the Cajun Penne W/Sausage, Shrimp, & Chicken - Great tastes. #shrimptastic
Kathy SlaughterFebruary 9, 2011You must try the Bette Noir from Rene's - most outstanding chocolate dessert I've had in a while!
A must try is the Flatwater Ultimate Margarita w/Grand Marnier made by Johnny!- Ashley EggertJuly 1, 2011Be sure to order a Sunberry Punch complete with Acai liquor, a splash of Sun King Cream Ale and more deliciousness.
Spenser IsdahlSeptember 8, 2011*Always* get fries, the dipping sauce they serve them with is amazing.
Can't go wrong with anything there. Great beer, fantastic food, and out of this world service.
Best Long Island Iced Tea ever!!! They call it a "strong island." it truly is STRONG!!!
Janet B.March 10, 2017Nothing too fancy, just basic food. We would have liked to see more local beer on tap.
Brian SMay 31, 2010Very nice little restaurant. The salmon sandwich was great and definitely try the Wedge salad
Jason GergelyJuly 30, 2011Hit up Kenny in the outside bar. Hands down the best bartender in broad ripple.

"Worth the wait! The staff moves quickly and the food comes out fast. The omelets are light and fresh - not heavy or greasy. Opt for the cinnamon toast and fresh fruit!"
