The food here was pretty good as was the service. I'm only giving them 3 stars though because they are a smoking bar which I'm not a fan of. I understand that there is a smoking ban in Indy, but I just think that other bars in the surrounding areas should just jump on the bandwagon and protect the health of their patrons and staff. I had the combo platter sample for appetizers which was a great value. I had the cordon blue bites which were awesome with honey mustard dipping sauce, the mozzarella sticks, and the fried biscuits with apple butter. Very happy tummy! Our waitress was good and attentive and even though we moved from her section to the pool area, she was still around enough to refill drinks. My coworkers and I had a good time and we enjoyed their juke box and pool as well.
Review Source:I love their fried shrimp and fried pork tenderloin sandwich. Â They also have very good soups. Â If you do not smoke then this is not the place for you. Â Even empty, the place has a strong cigarette smell. Â I give the owner credit for sticking up for what he believes in and staying smoking.
Review Source:I don't really like this place, the atmosphere is odd. Â I can usually enjoy ANY old place but I get the creeps going to Claude and Annie's. Â I can't really pinpoint what it is. Â And is it karaoke night EVERY night here? Â Maybe that is the problem, I am not a karaoke fan. Â However, I do appreciate that their pool is cheap and the food is decent. Â At a birthday gathering over the weekend, we sampled a variety of appetizers with the favorites being the onion peels, mini tacos, chicken poppers, and the french fries were excellent. Â They were honestly some of the best fries I have ever had and to look at them you would think they were standard issue. Â Props on the food and cheap drink prices, the rest is.... it just is.
Review Source:This was a really nice change of pace in the Indianapolis area. For the first time in ages, I went into a restaurant and felt like a grown up, meaning, this was not family friendly, meaning, they smoked inside the building, ate, drank and played darts. Sounds good right? It was nice not to have children yelling or parents talking really loud to billy to get out of the kitchen.
the staff was great and the food was yummy and super fast! Loved the laid back atmosphere - it was on a Sunday afternoon that I went, so it was not at all packed, but you could tell that this was a place for people to go and have a great time.
Will definitely try it out on the weekend soon!
Highly recommend it!
Very friendly bar, great staff and service. Regular events in the evenings. Loads of TV's, Golden Tee etc... Â
Good drink special the day I was there...
Nice food, especially the best kept secret in Indiana, THE CHICKEN is awesome! (as are the burgers)
Regulars were very friendly as well.... Try it out.
Claude & Annie's provides an awesome after party locale for CCDG & RCR after parties. When we first get there, the line can be a little long to get a drink. I will usually get two drinks, although one is probably sufficient, since the line dissipate after about 20 minutes or so.
When you walk in, there is a large room with a lot of tables and booths to sit at. The bar area is pretty big. There is a "foyer" type area with a tiny little dance floor where there is karaoke. I typically don't like karaoke most of the time (unless it's my friends); however, watching rollergirls do karaoke is the best. At the other end of the karaoke area are pool tables. There's also another restroom on this side, but I think people often don't realize this.
The staff is super friendly and supportive. The clientele is different from that of what you think of finding in Fishers or Carmel. It's a nice change of pace.
The food is alright. I had had the inferno burger last week (I think pepperjack? cheese and jalapinos, maybe some cajun spices, if I remember correctly).
Last night, I had the grilled cheese with bacon, some fries and cottage cheese. The fries were super deep fried & crispy. Everything was really salty.
The menu was pretty large. I remember seeing pasta, pizza, wings and your typical pub fare.
Lots of space to hang out with your buds, shoot some pool, a lot of dart machines, oh!! And I don't know if it was new. It had to be because I never saw it before, but they now have one of those boxing machines!
My husband and I are regulars here, it's our local go-to place to watch sports during any time of the year. The service is great, the owner is typically around on the weekends and is very friendly. They have great snacks! Pizza and wings are two of our favorites, along with the popcorn chicken and chicken nachos. (ok so four :) )Plus it's one of the few places that I can play Golden Tee!
