Zoo the

Look...if you're in Indianola and looking for a late night drink... There is no reason NOT to go to the Zoo. Cheap drinks, great bartenders. Mostly always free pool downstairs. They will have a small dance floor which seems to always get packed out. The only problem with this place is that when it closes at 2am it feels too early. It's a blast. Their $3 Long Island is great. All in all...what else are you gonna do late night in Indianola?

I'd come here all the time with my older bro.  I LOVE IT!!!!  quiet bar where the bar tenders will go out of their way to serve you and make your night awesome.

If your in the area and in need of a beer this bar is a must.

In my travels to hundreds of bars throughout the Great Plains I have discovered several fundamental laws of bar nature.   One of these laws is that any bar named "Zoo" is awesome.    This particular Zoo is no exception.

We had a kick-ass bartender who welcomed us out-of-towners with free shots ("FMS", apparently the bar's staple) as we settled in for our visit.   We had a lot of fun chatting with him throughout our stay.

Upon entry you find yourself in the middle of a stairwell.   Go up and you find the main bar, with lots of seating and a handful of bar games.   Downstairs is foosball and a pair of vividly purple pool tables.

If I lived in Indianola, this would be my hangout.   If you're just visiting, it's well worth stopping in.
