I've noticed that this place has reviews across all levels, but I think this is a great spot if you're attending a show at Gainbridge or Lucas Oil and need to be in and out quickly. This is a bit of a divey bar with dim lighting and sports and the staff are moving at top speed to get you served. The food came out super fast. I got a steak quesadilla ($12) and it is just pure bar comfort food. Lots of steak and cheese, I stayed full for hours after while attending a concert at Lucas Oil. Sadly, no pictures, as I was in a rush. But I will for sure keep this place in mind the next time I need a quick bite before a downtown affair!

Coaches is a small bar with strong drinks and good food. I typically go on a Tuesday night for Take Back Tuesday. But be sure to get the err early if you want a seat. They play hip hop from 10:30 - 3:00 am and it's always a good time! I got a burger and onion strips and it was good. I was told the patties are not frozen which was a bonus! Also, they have daily drink specials!

Excellent burger! Stopped in today for lunch and had the Tom Nom Nom burger with bacon and blue cheese crumbles. Excellent, juicy, nice portion, had those crispy edges that we all want on our burger :). Will certainly be back to try another burger or sandwich as I suspect they are all great.

I love coming to the old school DJ nights and when DJ MetroGnome is spinning ‍. I am old school and love vinyl. Tribe Called Quest, Beastie Boys, Nas, Jay Z, Ice Cube, House of Pain is my jam. It can take awhile to get a drink . The peeps there are so cool. Wish there was room to get down. I'm pretty funky whiteboy. Peace out. I'm Audi 5000!!!!!

How can you not love a downtown " hole in the wall" staple bar. Come here during ,after colts games, SOLID bartenders lol they actually make the drinks worth the price, trust me. DJs on Tuesdays, fun sociable crowds. Coaches is great.

The Cheers Bar of Indy... no frills downtown Indy fan favorite. 'Nuff sed. If you're looking for a local sports bar in downtown Indy, this is exactly where you want to kick it. Great Location + Great Value + Solid Service Food & Drinks are really freaking cheap (& generous) considering the location. Coaches serves solid unpretentious pub fare & most hungry Hoosiers probably can't eat $20 of food here. Venue is classic, tons of TV's & a solid variety of seating options (including outdoor seating). Decor is warm & matches the neighborhood. Service is top notch & the bartenders got character. Shoutout to Amber, local legend! If you're wondering why this place is 3.5 stars on Yelp... your experience will vary depending on density. Coaches is a 5 star joint that happens to catch some hate because it gets crowded on big game days. Which happen to also be the fun times to be at Coaches... can't have your cake and eat it too!

I loved Coaches Tavern. A group of us stopped in late night two different times. We had a few drinks and some food including fries, wings, nachos, quesadilla and a salad. Everything was delicious.

Stopped in before a Pacer's game and wow this place was poppin! The inside has a small seating area near the bar and another main seating area that is a few steps down from the bar area, separated by a railing. Luckily we found a small table near the bar. The inside is decorated with sports memorabilia and there is a myriad of televisions on every wall. There was only a couple employees working but they were definitely hustling around making sure everyone was taken care of. They have drink specials every day of the week (usually $4 something). The menu has a wide variety of options including appetizers, soups/salads, quesadillas, burgers, wraps and even some fish sandwiches. We got mini corn dogs and split the buffalo chicken wrap. I was surprised that they offered the chicken either fried, blackened, or grilled. Because calories obviously don't count on the weekend, we went with fried. The food came out fast for the restaurant being so busy. The buffalo chicken wrap was excellent and the chicken was perfectly crispy. Just a heads up, the wrap comes with big chunks of carrots, which I thought added a nice crunch, but could see some other people not being a fan of. Overall, very impressed with the food, drinks and most importantly the atmosphere! Will definitely be back to watch games in the future.
