Cannon Ball Lounge

Came to Cannon Ball during their happy hour which is Monday to Friday from 3-6 (I believe).Our cocktails were $3 off and food was half price. Great view of the city, great drinks, and great vibe in the bar area. Can't wait to come back when it's warmer to get the full rooftop patio experience.The lounge is in Hotel Indy so when you arrive you'll want to head to the elevators and go to the top floor.

If you're looking for Jay he is here! He was the reason for my most reason visit but I am so glad we choose this location for our "Sipxmas". Jay never disappoints so the drinks were great, the service above great and the ambience was just enough to enjoy the intimacy of our group. The chef did her thang in the kitchen and I loved my bougie grill cheese sandwich I definitely recommend adding chicken. We were there during happy hour so prices were affordable as well. Before you go, go ahead and add a dessert.

Love love love this spot always. This beautiful bar is located on the rooftop (7th floor) of Hotel Indy and has the most stunning decor and a lovely outdoor space (when it's not 4 degrees outside).We could not decide on a mocktail, so our server asked us a few questions about our preferences and landed on the most amazing, custom mocktail featuring coffee and almond cream with a hint of ginger. Such a wonderful experience. It is my go-to after-work happy hour drinks spot with friends or coworkers. **Only note: they often have private events and will close the bar to guests. I always call ahead to make sure they're open to the public.

Nice vibe. I was able to find parking without an issue. I wasn't a fan of the dip, it was on the tangy side. My drink was okay. I felt like everything was overpriced for the quality. But the view on the rooftop made up for it. The servers were also nice.

My husband and I visited the Cannon Ball lounge on February 25th for the Sip and Soar brunch event they were hosting. We attended a play the night before in downtown Indy, and elected to have a mini staycation at the Hotel Indy, https://www.hotelindy.com/where the cannonball lounge is located on the roof top. We were excited about trying out a new restaurant and the Sip and Soar sounded like something fun and different to do. Upon arrival at the brunch event, the first impression was that the attendance was a lot less than expected which was a surprise considering it was advertised as being sold out. There was no food out yet except some small pastries on a couple of plates and coffee that was sub par and there was no sugar or a different creamers available, like you might expect at a brunch. There was a station set up at the end of the bar for mimosas, however, we're not big drinkers but did try one. After about a half an hour, the food started to come out but to our dismay it was bite-size portions that are shown in the pictures I displayed I think when I purchased the tickets for the brunch I expected there to be multiple choices for food, but we did not see the menu until we arrived at the event, they were literally four items on the menu only three are pictured in this post because the fourth item which was tuna tartare neither of us eat, and my husband does not eat pork so he only had two sample size breakfast items! We were very disappointed because the event did not turn out as we expected and for $50 per person we definitely expected more! The atmosphere, the ambience, and the view of the city were nice but because it was in February, we couldn't enjoy eating outside. The other frustrating part is they brought out each item in a very untimely fashion so maybe 15 to 20 minutes in between each item and one by one, so needless to say, we were starving by the time we left. My suggestion would be if hosting future brunch events like these here to enhance the overall presentation, and to be well stocked on items, have more variety andand definitely increase the portion sizes!

Where to start... The doorman was quite nice and helpful with directions. As soon as you walk into the Cannonball Lounge you can feel a change and the elevation in energy. I don't know if it's because of the elevation or if they are doing a wonderful job, but it feels great to be inside. The bartenders are top notch. I could watch them create and mix all night long... I tried a Negroni for the first time. Wow was that amazing! Definitely don't come here looking for a watered down drink because you are looking in the wrong place. Come here to sit and enjoy a deliciously crafted cocktail view along with some of the best views in Indy.

First of all, the Cannon Ball Lounge makes you forget you're in downtown Indianapolis. I continued my birthday celebrates at this location, and my friends and I had an absolute blast. There are few food options, since if you're looking for a food spot I'd recommend grabbing dinner on the first floor of the hotel, since the Lounge the visitor must take an elevator to get to the top floor. The environment was upbeat and fun, as we visited when it was trivia night! There was an outdoor fireplace with plenty of seating. The staff was super friendly and welcoming!Although the prices were a little hefty, I'd visit again because of the awesome scenery, great vibes, and plenty of photo opportunities. I suggest coming during sunset time, so you can see the sun come down and get awesome pictures. Amazing place!

I've heard of this spot for about a year and never knew where it was. Decided to be intent on finding it and going! It was a little confusing to find initially. We saw the weather trying to change after rain held off for hours. Get to the 6th floor, walk out to see the view and boom - the rain starts! The area is very cute, but there's no cover on the outside. Staff were quick to pull cushions in from seating. The inside was fairly busy with a combination of date nights and bridal parties. My friends drink was loaded with alcohol while mine was loaded with mixer. I was surprised to see staff walk around but never stopped by our table. In summary, I'm giving this night a pass. I plan to return when there's better weather to give them another chance!

We had a lovely experience here the other night. You'll find Cannonball Lounge on the top floor of the recently opened Hotel Indy. This is one of the floors that was added on to the building for the hotel renovations. It oozes cool vibes with a disco ball, stunning stone floors and a fun mix of upholstery. We arrived around 6 and quickly found a spot on their beautiful rooftop patio. We had a bourbon sorghum Manhattan, Major Taylor inspired cocktail (with pear spice and champagne), and coffee cocktail. We were very impressed by the number of cocktails on the menu that featured local inspiration and historical tie-ins ranging from the racing industry to pawpaw spirits. As for the patio- goodness, it is gorgeous! You'll find several lush couches/ lounge chairs along with a few tables. The space overlooks the Cultural Trail and Lugar Plaza on Washington street. I was definitely picking up some outdoor design inspiration while there (the same goes for the bathroom). The cocktail prices are on Indy's higher end but great for a special occasion. Parking is fairly easy to find on the surrounding streets on a weeknight.

This was my first rooftop bar I went to in Indianapolis, and this place has so much potential, I liked it a lot. I was there for a private event one night, and after the event my friends and I stayed there as we enjoyed the vibe. It's Indy, the view is not like Chicago but it definitely is cool. The DJ was playing some good music too. The place is not really big, and by the time we left there was a line leading to the elevator with people trying to go up.
