Jazz is hip
Indianapolis bars and pubs scene concentrates around the downtown area, and in Broad Ripple Village - an easy drive north of downtown straight up Meridian Street. By comparison to downtown, this part of the city attracts a younger crowd, with a number of student pubs. There are a few bars catering to a more mature audience as well, mostly jazz bars, but these audiences are better served downtown, where the bars feature live music every evening and the atmosphere is much cozier. Wine bars and taverns are also very popular in Indianapolis.
