Our Take

Workingman's Friend is the Indianapolis burger spot with the deepest roots. The tavern on North Belmont Avenue dates to 1919, and its thin, griddled burgers have been recognized by Food & Wine as Indiana's best and by First We Feast among the country's best smashburgers. A cheeseburger with a side of onion rings is the classic order.

Plan ahead: it is cash only and guests must be 21 or older. The no-frills room is part of the charm. A visit feels like a step back in time.
