Fountain Square Food Tour

Overview

Fountain Square served as the southside's primary commercial corridor since the 1860's. Its laid back atmosphere, beautifully designed buildings and accessibility made it a popular neighborhood for decades. In the early 20th century, the neighborhood had more theaters than any part of Indianapolis, and became an important cultural destination.

Fountain Square has recently seen a rapid transformation to a neighborhood with unique restaurants, and trendy art galleries located in renovated buildings. The Fountain Square Food Tour will give you an in-depth look at the area and its surroundings; from humble beginnings to grandeur, rapid decline to resurgence. We will enjoy food from long standing institutions, and hip new destinations.

I’ve been on several food tours in other cities and always felt like I got a history of the neighborhood and had a little bit of an understanding how it fits into the rest of the city. Today, our tour pretty much focused on the four restaurants we visited and recommendations about other restaurants in the area. I don’t feel that I know Fountain Square or it’s history at all or how it compares to the rest of Indy. Our guide was VERY nice and accommodating, she just wasn’t a tour guide. It was like visiting four restaurants with a nice friend. We visited a mead place, two Asian restaurants and a chocolatier. With the wide variety of restaurants, why two Asian restaurants for the main part of our meal? Pad Thai and dumplings at the Thai place seemed like a really mundane choice and something everyone had already had. Very nice guide who has great potential, she just needs to be able to tell a better story, impart more information and act like a guide as opposed to a friend who just melds into the group.

On the beautiful Spring Saturday of April 13, my wife and I ENJOYED the Fountain Square Tour with 14 other people. The ages ran from mid-20's to mid-70's. Dani , our fantastic leader had us "clicked" together within minutes. Dani is SO knowledgeable, full of love for Fountain Square! The conversations between friends and total strangers as we "tasted" Fountain Square was interesting and amazing. And the chocolate at the end of the tour was the "icing on the cake"!

I bought tickets to this tour for my boyfriend's birthday. Our tour guide Dani was amazing and super knowledgeable. The food was great and filling. I also now have a new favorite food thanks to this tour! As a vegetarian/non-drinker, they were able to accommodate my needs, and I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything. I would definitely do one of their other tours after having done this one.
