The Historic Vollrath Tavern has been in operation at its original location since it opened its doors for the first time in 1926. During prohibition, The Vollrath served as a Speakeasy until congress repealed the 18th amendment with the 21st amendment rendering the original Volstead act unconstitutional in December of 1933. Folks like John Dillinger to name just one were know to frequent the Vollrath on a regular basis, drinking and playing cards in the basement until the wee hours in the morning.~~~~
The Vollrath Tavern is located on the very near Southside of downtown Indy in the historic Southside "Sacred Heart Catholic Church" neighborhood. Located @ Meridian and Palmer...3 blocks east.
When you enter the Vollrath it's like stepping back into time into an old LARGE "Chicago / Brooklyn style” neighborhood tavern as it was when John Dillinger used to frequent it. It’s original [and the one of the most beautiful in the Midwest] ornate wood and mirror bar is still there and the entire place is authentic to it’s origination date down to the old slate tile floor and restored original wood plank floors. ~~~~
Drink prices are the best in town and aren't ridiculously priced as many of the more pretentious downtown “VIP” bars. On top of the already great drink pricing, additional drink specials are a regular occurrence. ~~~~
There are a couple of pool tables, dart machines and a gaming systems on the LARGE flat screens where you can play Guitar Hero, Rock band and the Wii system to include Beer Pong! And you can catch all you favorite sporting events on the LARGE digital flat screens! ~~~~
The Vollrath is a great place to come jam out to your favorite music with it’s new Touchtune jukebox that you can literarily find ANY song you could possibly imagine by doing an online search if it’s not already downloaded and saved. However, if its music you LIVE music that you crave, the big attraction to the Vollrath now is the addition of a 200 sq ft. stage that was added in January of 2008 where local musicians have already begun to gravitate towards. The Vollrath is quickly becoming one of Indy's top notch LIVE music venues! ~~~~
Come soak up the nostalgia while enjoying the great drink pricing, games, sports, Touchtune jukebox, LIVE music!
Howdy Vollrath, Thanks for havin' us out. We sure enjoyed the warm hospitality and hope to come back real soon. Yee Haw, Hank Haggard & the Chippewa Cowboys
