Also when I was here, a middle aged man or the blonde middle aged female server( used to work at the Nashville location) had a different server slip some sort of drug in my beer. When I took a sip of beer, my face crinkled and I was still forced to pay full price for everything I ordered. Ladies watch your drinks. You can't count on men for your safety and certainly not other women to watch out for you. Other than this experience which includes my other review, the place is cute. Unfortunately they need to screen their employees well and hire people with integrity and attract customers with a backbone which includes integrity. I guess like attracts like.

I was at the bar today talking with 2 friends. We were discussing what was going on between Isreal and the Palestinians. Then we started to talk about some local politics and the bartender said No politics or religion. I said are you kidding me? He said... NO. I was shocked. It was not a loud or heated conversation at all. I said I guess Love All Serve All is out the window with Soft Truth. Why was he even listening to our conversation. Then I asked my buddy, what if we started to argue about Sports, as many do. Go to Boston, Philly or any northeast area with sports. What if we talked about Chris Rock getting slapped by Will Smith? Where does it end that this establishment will tell you not to talk at all. What if 2 local politicians wanted to enjoy a beverage and discuss strategy? I won't go back and I will make sure I pass it around to plenty of others not to frequent the Soft Truth because they can't handle The Hard Truth.

Great small cocktail bar in the garage. They have a lot of cool drinks and they feature their own liquors made here in Indiana. You can come here and order a few drinks like it's a bar, or just get one drink and go somewhere else in the garage for food. The bar tenders are very friendly and the service is pretty quick for how busy the garage gets. People might say this place is expensive, but I think it's on par with most cocktail bars in Indy. If you are at the garage check out hard truth!

We came to the garage while in town and had a great night. The food options were pretty good but the drinks at Truth were awesome. Brian the bartender was very knowledgeable about all of their drinks and super friendly. We enjoyed both the beer and mixed drinks.

Got one cocktail so my review is based on that. For the $13-14 it was (I can't remember) it was mid it was made in about 30'seconds which is how I knew it wasn't going to be anything special. It was the coconut something Mojito. Was just ok. For a place that "specializes " in cocktails would expect a bit more .

This is the perfect centerpiece for the Garage Food Hall. Centrally located amongst the myriad of food options, you're never more than a few steps away from a classic cocktail. You order from any of the bartenders and pick up your drink(s) at the end of the bar. The whole process keeps the line moving and everyone happy.

Overpriced cocktails that aren't that good, too much bitters. I would avoid this place when it comes to whiskey or bourbon cocktails.

We came to the garage and I opted to get the C.R.E.A.M cocktail. It was very flavorful with a hint of spice from the jalapeño added. Super sweet, but a great treat!

This was my third visit to this bar in the food garage. And my LAST!!!!! My friend and I went down on Friday May 13th for my birthday to have some drinks and lunch. We walked in and headed straight to Hard Truth. We then were greeted by a very pleasant young lady bartender. She was nice, knowledgeable and fun! We left tab open and came back after lunch about 3:30p to order another drink. We then were treated very rude by the bartender that took her place. He was grouchy, moody and basically seemed as if he hated his job. Now, I did recognize him because the second time I visited this bar many months ago he was bartending. And I distinctly remember him because he was not nice. I just thought hmm bad day perhaps. Nope, that's just his personality. I worked in the restaurant/ hospitality business while in college and if I would of treated patrons the way we were treated that afternoon it would of been instant termination. Unacceptable. Other patrons at the bar made comments on how rude he was to us. Never again. That was my friends first visit to the food garage and said she most likely will not return due to service by that man.

Stop by the garage and of course I had to have a cocktail, I got the Bahama Mama ! It was very tasty, the customer service was great . I would definitely stop back by for a drink '
We stopped by the location inside of The Garage. It was a one and done for both of us but it was also very relaxing . I ordered the Irish Wolfhound. This consists of Irish whiskey, lime juice, and luxardo cherries topped with ginger beer. Absolutely delicious and refreshing! My partner ordered the Aged Old Fashioned. This consists of the White Oak Reserve Rum, orange and angostura bitters roooed with a luxardo cherry and orange peel for garnish . THIS drink was incredibly strong but felt fitting and rewarding for a Saturday afternoon lol! We will definitely visit again !
