Ash & Elm has been my favorite cidery in Indy since it first opened! They are always trying new flavors and keep a large selection on tap, which is great for flights! They also change their food menu based on the season. It's a laid back atmosphere with plenty of seating inside, as well as some outdoor seating. The staff has always been super friendly every time I've visited.My only issue is with the parking, which is limited and off to the side along an alley.They host events all year round too, so be sure to check their Facebook page!

I've had Ash & Elm ciders in cans at events around town, so I was excited to use Devour Indy as an opportunity to check out their taproom and restaurant. We were seated quickly on a Sunday and left to take in the light-filled former industrial space while we mulled over the menu.Ciders: my partner and I split a "special flight" (Tropical Escape, Obscura, Marigold Chai, Sugar Plum) and a "flagship flight" (landstone, wayfinder, sunset, fleeting youth) that were brought to our table quickly after ordering. Really enjoyed Sunset and Fleeting Youth--better on draught than what I've had from a can previously, though both are good. The Marigold Chai was warm but light and fruity. That one, along with the Tropical Escape, made me seriously consider joining their cider of the month club. As far as food goes, the mozzarella bruschetta wasn't bad but I was hoping for more of a "gooey" cheese. It's hard to make a good bruschetta when so many of the ingredients are out of season, but I felt like the mix could have used some more time sitting in balsamic vinegar and oil. I loved the Southwest Bowl piled high with pickled onions, black beans, guac, lettuce, and pork, but my boyfriend really disliked like pork (we both loved the guac). To each his own, I guess! The cider donut balls had a good flavor, but were a little too crispy.Overall, I'd say the ciders get 5/5 and the food gets a 3/5. I'd give staff the benefit of the doubt that they're pretty beat by the end of Devour and would try the food again.

The cider is fabulous. I would drink the cider somewhere else. The donuts and fries were undercooked. The elote fritters were the most intensely salty thing I've ever had in my life. Very nice waitstaff but service was delayed because there wasn't clean cutlery.

I never was able to go to the old location but I've been to this Ash & Elm a few times for trivia. It's a big place!! Lots of great cider and really good food!! I got a few appetizers and snacked on them while we played and they're all fantastic!My only complaint is that the space has little to no parking. If it's busy, you'll have to find parking down the street. I didn't few loops with the construction around too.

Came here for the first time as part of a Feathers and Fermentation event. Their cider hits it out of the park. I especially loved their seasonal orange earl grey cider which I cannot stop thinking about. The others were also very tasty and even my picky partner enjoys their cider which says a lot. I'm not sure if it was the beverages but their cookies were some of the best. I only tasted a couple appetizers after the event but the pretzels were something that really stuck out to me. Definitely will be back for a full food experience soon. They also put on lots of fun events so I'm excited to attend more!

Came to Indy for TS weekend. I love how all the local businesses went all in for the weekend.Ash & Elm Cider had a custom Taylor Swift menu with the most creative menu for the weekend.Although the place was slammed, our server was super nice and took care of us. I tried the blood orange cider and it was very good. I normally am a wine and beer person but this cider wasn't overly sweet... it actually reminded me more as a hazy ipa.My swiftie burger was the double patty. Definitely surprising since I'm used to cider places that don't have a kitchen and rely on food trucks to come by.The taproom itself is a big open space with pretty cool decorations. I know some decor was temporary for the weekend but the regular art on the walls looked cool and there large windows (maybe used to be a warehouse) let in a lot of light.

Very unique place, that I would definitely recommend trying out. Great ciders, quality food. Unfortunately it's in a rough part of town that doesn't have much reason to go over there other than here. We went for an early lunch, but would like to try their Sunday Brunch.

BLOWN AWAY!Wow, I have been wanted to visit Ash & Elm for a while, but I was just expecting regular brewery level food. I was pleasantly surprised with everything I had here was absolutely excellent! We had a reservation for a Friday night during Devour Indy, and were promptly seated. The service was attentive throughout the meal.I began with a cider flight, which were all great. My husband and I split the Arancini and Elote Fritters. The Elote Fritters were delicious, with a lime flavor and get consistency. The Arancini were good and of a nice large size. For my entree, I chose to Surf and Turf. The steak was a large size for the cost. The shrimp were seasoned well, I usually am not a big seafood girl but I thought these were very good. The Parmesan fries were so good as well, and I enjoyed the sauce they were served with. For dessert, my husband and I split the Coconut Brownie and Cider Donut Holes. The brownie had a rich cocoa flavor, and I felt the coconut flavor really shined through. The donut holes were topped with caramel and were nice and crispy on the outside but soft and warm on the inside! Both were very good!Overall, I HIGHLY recommend dining here. I cannot wait to visit again and try more menu items!

Wow, what a great experience we had here. Came on a Friday night, and had reservations. We saw on their instagram that they were full of reservations for the evening so to be patient. We were pleasantly sat quickly, and greeted quickly as well.I started off with a glass of rose. Not a big cider or beer guy. Overall, pretty good.My wife and I did the devour for two. We started off with the elote fritters and arancini. The fritters were amazing- the sauce that came with them was to die for (I thought about licking the plate to get it all off). The arancini were fried perfectly, had a great crunch, and the marinara tasted fresh.I had the beef bulgogi bowl. It had fresh vegetables, and was great. I also ate the rest of my wife's steak and fries from her surf and turf- fries were great. We had donuts and a coconut brownie for desert. Nothing great- pretty typical run of the mill- nothing to write home about. Everything felt clean and open. Eager to return.
