Restaurants, diners, bakeries, breweries, markets, and local eats
Restaurants, diners, bakeries, breweries, markets, small-town staples, and the Indiana food stops worth planning around.
The best food in Indiana is built on a handful of things the state does better than anywhere else. The breaded pork tenderloin hangs off the bun at places like Mecca Tavern, out between Rockville and Clinton. Una Pizza is the cracker-thin, square-cut Hoosier style. And the old counters are still running: St. Elmo Steak House in Indianapolis, Olympia Candy Kitchen in Goshen since 1912, and Fort Wayne's Famous Coney Island.
The rest is regional and worth the drive. Up north there is Crystal Springs Creamery near South Bend. Around Indianapolis it is Broad Ripple, the Bottleworks district, and the Garage Food Hall. Down south it runs to orchards and wineries, Huber's Orchard & Winery among them. Use the region filter, pick the place first, then build the rest of the day around the meal.
