Downtown Olly's - Gay bar in Indianapolis - 822 N Illinois St, USA

Other than the obviously overserved customer that wouldn’t leave us alone this seems like a Cool comfortable little spot. Food on the combo basket was really just all frozen low quality stuff. BUT I would go back again to try the breakfast since I’ve heard it’s great. Nice enough staff .

I can't recommend downtown Olly's. A simple answer as to why is that I was legitimately heckled by a drunk at the opposite end of the bar named Brian. I was not looking for any trouble and did nothing to warrant the ire of this (blatantly intoxicated or inebriated individual) other than to swing in during my break from work dressed in my work clothes. This place is not friendly to professionals and I recommend going elsewhere as long as the staff tolerates people like this... your hard earned money is conditionally welcomed, despite the fact you directly support the working class and are a public servant. As a member of the community, I will not return and voice my dissent to fellow individuals. Do better.

Great place for eating, drinking, & being merry! Hey also the chicken 🐔 fingers & remolaude sauce is awesome. Local fresh chicken wow 👌

Super hostile environment at times . Used to be very gay friendly and welcoming to the business class , not the case anymore .. I almost fear going here late at night . Intoxicated people Just cannot seem to control themselves these days and need to do better !

Very fun and Friendly staff! Best patty melt I’ve had in my life. Cant wait to go back.

Went for trivia on a Thursday on the patio. Best most interactive, mobile ran trivia Ive ever experienced. Come to PLAY. There are many groups who are regulars. Super recommend based on that alone. There was a decent amount of free parking when we arrived, but beware it probably gets super crowded on the weekends. Anyway service was ok, food was excellent. The fried green tomatoes and house remoulade were fantastic, chicken tenders too. Both had a thin batter and were very fresh. The drinks were strong so beware, but decent prices for sure. Not many beer option. I felt extremely welcome here and had a good time overall. My two complaints: I had to ask our waitress if she was bringing my tenders because they were clearly forgotten about. That’s always a bit of an awkward interaction for someone like me. And the bathrooms are simply gross. Smelly, wet, etc. Definitely need some attention. I will definitely be back and would certainly recommend.

Terrible experience all the way around. Place was empty and still took 25 minutes to get a poorly cooked frozen burger. All while a man seated at the bar yelled on his phone. Would advise sending your time and money elsewhere.

Ended up here after a bad experience at Greg's. Definitely the better spot, serves food and doesn't try to treat their customers like escape convicts. Appreciate you Olly's.
