I love this place! The servers are always fun and the food is always fantastic. It's becoming one of my favorite places in Broad Ripple. The view on the patio is nice along the canal .

They have far more than just nachos and tacos . Steaks , sandwiches , pasta ... It's all wonderful.

What a great place, and a great atmosphere. Staff is so friendly , and the food is unreal. Make sure to ask about the specials since they change all the time, and have one of their draft beers .

Bartender gave a great suggestion. This is the perfect summer drink . Deep Eddy Ruby Red and soda . Great atmosphere and live music !

It doesn't matter how hot it is outside, there are always tables in the share on the patio . Plus, the view is something not to be missed. The name Flatwater on the Canal couldn't be more accurate.

If you are hungry, order a plate of pulled pork nachos . They are to die for. If you ask for a side of BBQ sauce you get an even deeper experience! Delicious.
