Really cool place for a drink. They were busy but the bartenders were on point! Didn't have to wait more than a couple of minutes! Will return!

Great place to have drinks, people watch, and listen to good music. 2 bars available - so never a long wait for a drink. We were there on a Saturday night and it was full, but not overly crowded, which I appreciate. Would recommend and would go back.

Hot Dogging with Dan

Lol... I dont work here, but im at this bar literally every weekend for the past 10+ years. These negative comments are bogus. I was present and witnessed most, if not all of them that I read.-The girl who claims the bouncers watched and encouraged her friend getting beat up: She and her boyfriend were drunk. Her boyfriend got mad at another guy for accidentally bumping into her and he started a fight with the guy. Her boyfriend got kicked out for starting the fight, and she became verbally abusive to the bouncers, so she got kicked out too. The bar and bouncers handled the situation appropriately and professionally. Kudos to the bar staff, and shame on this girl for lying on a negative review, potentially affecting peoples livelihoods, just because she and her boyfriend can't handle a little alcohol.- I could go on with a majority of the other negative comments, as I was there and witnessed almost all of them, but they are mostly all the same. Somebody got drunk, they got kicked out because of their own behavior, so they leave a bad review where the business can't resolve the bogus complaint...

The mixed drinks are expensive. Fun atmosphere, it's kinda of a small beaver. They have karaoke at 10 pm.

my favorite bar in Indy because of the karaoke!! drinks are very reasonably priced and they have a few specials on weekends for wells & beer. bartenders and bouncers are always friendly, if you're respectful of course, but I've never had a bad experience here. however, don't come here if you can't have fun watching others karaoke--you will not enjoy the vibes of the place.

Great place - Karaoke Friday's and Saturday. Drinks were strong and bartenders were fast.

Beware if going for karaoke. In the span on an hour and a half, the DJ had the same guy sing five time and her "brothers" sang three. Those eight songs were more than the rest of the other singers combined, despite a list of over twenty singers.

Horrible experience. My (girl) friend was beaten up by a bunch of guys and the bouncers allowed it to happen. They watched and enabled the behavior. There is some sort of trafficking going on so PLEASE DON’T GO HERE!!!! Be safe out there everyone.

Karaoke lady was extremely rude and killed the mood. She had an attitude with everyone, was constantly yelling at people, and had no energy. Karaoke should be loud, fun, and care free. Clearly just focused on racking in whatever money she could and couldn’t even bother to pretend she was having a good time. Will have to find a new place for karaoke.Edit: I just looked at other reviews and noticed many people mentioning that they take bribes and pick and choose who gets to sing and I can confirm that this was happening last night. Do not go if you’d like to actually do karaoke.

So Blissful

I have been to Wild Beaver a couple times. Some of the times have been a pleasant experience with my friends and I. However, this night (on our friend's after wedding celebration) was one of the worst social environments I've been apart of. We arrived when there was about 20 people in the bar, and immediately requested our karaoke songs. We patiently waited for over 2 hours, and when I finally approached the hostess she mentioned how the queue was longer than 2 hours. Not only is this logically impossible from our our arrival time, but I saw her bring several of her friends up on the stage and skipped every person's spot in the queue to sing songs for her friend group. Even if it wasn't a wedding night celebration with our bridal party, what happened was a very toxic and exclusive environment to fit the agenda of the karaoke hostess. While I have had a couple of ok experiences at Wild Beaver, after tonight, I wouldn't recommend this bar to anyone trying to have a fun night out and I will definitely not be returning ever again.
