Friendliest staff in town. The food is good but the people are the difference maker. Attentive, funny, knowledgeable. Nice to see people who care about service and getting to know their customers.

Today is the finals of the NCAA women's tournament. I looked up sports bars and Mashcraft popped up. That's where we headed. Even though we live hundreds of miles from Iowa, everyone I know is mesmerized by Kaitlyn Clark. We've all been waiting for this game. We walked into Mashcraft and one of the handful of TV's was set to a pregame show. (One was set to a western). We asked them to put on the game and we were asked "what game?" Everyone sitting at the bar looked at each other and said "THE game". Mashcraft was definitely not a sportswear today. It's a bar with some televisions. Well, they do have a pickleball court, maybe that now defines a sports bar? Many of the ratings raved about the tater tots. I thought they must be homemade - nope. Our waitress told us that they come in the same bag as those you and I buy at home. She said she didn't get the excitement. Since we were planning on drinking beer all afternoon , we thought the Mashcraft Fest Board might be fun. "A variety of sausages and cheese cubes...". The Mashcraft Fest Board is a $20 disappointment. That it was served in about 5 minutes should have clued me in. Someone opened a bag of precubed cheddar, sliced up a couple of links of grocery store sausage, threw on a handful of pretzel chips and at least saved the tray with a giant soft pretzel with housemade mustard. The soft pretzel was great, really great, but the lack of effort for the overall tray should embarrass anyone associated with the kitchen. Since we're in town for the eclipse, we opted to celebrate with the Sol Invictus, a Vienna lager that "tastes great while wearing eclipse glasses". It was good, not good enough for another mug though. We intended on staying here for the game but the vibe was just wrong. Honestly, I think I'm going to just end up watching the game at the hotel bar.

Finally decided to try this place out. Friendly staff! When you arrive, you seat yourself. My husband and I tried a beer flight, cheese curds, and the tater tots with the 3 sauces. I definitely like the Thai chili and their homemade garlic aioli sauce. I did not like the chipotle cream sauce, or the marinara with the cheese curds. I suggest honey mustard with the cheese curds, I am not a fan of marinara sauce. Our favorite from the beer flight was the Kolsch. (City Limits Kölsch -- Becher) and second favorite is the Spark of Summer Shandy w/Strawberries -- Becher. Staff was super! Cool wood decor inside. Was not too loud inside to have a conversation. We look forward to coming back to try some more menu items.

The food was excellent. I had a flat bread pizza type of thing. It was very good. Service was excellent until we paid the bill. We decided after paying we'd like to stay and have more drinks... ain't happening. Waiter never came back. We went to find him and he wasn't interested.The place is a bit larger than the pictures make you think. It was perfectly fine.

Sober diner here. But the Mac n Cheez was great. Mixed in bacon and jalapeños made for a tasty early dinner while my Jeep was getting an estimate next door. Will be back for sure.

Be prepared for excellent food at a great price. Mashcraft also offers craft beers, and my friends who drink love their selection and offerings. The staff is friendly and genuinely wants you to find food and drink that you will love.The two Pickleball courts on the restaurant's North side of the building are unique to this restaurant. If you are coming to play, service for food and beverages will require you to come into the bar and order there. They have ice water set out so that you can grab a free drink if you need it. If you want something more, it's available for the asking. Thanks to Bret L for helping me learn the ropes.The food is delicious, and the plating is simple but good. We've found that Friday meetings in the shade with a little Pickleball thrown in has been very productive and fun.

Mashcraft is quickly becoming one of my favorite places on the north side of Indy.Their staff are some of the most down to Earth people around. Their kind, professional, and fun to have a conversation with.The same goes for their patrons. Simply good people who work hard and appreciate good beer.Mashcraft has a great selection of beers that they brew. I think they have some of the best IPAs around, but I'm honestly a fan of all of them.There is a lot to appreciate about their menu. It's simple, but well conceived. They cross utilize a lot of ingredients, which means they're always using fresh product. The dishes are executed to perfection and raise the bar for "bar food".Mashcraft is a place I'm happy to bring my kids to because they can enjoy a great meal within a friendly atmosphere.I'm ready to become a regular here

The bbq, bacon, blue cheese burger was excellent - tasty favors and cooked perfectly. Unfortunately, while initially friendly the server was not on top of their game. Forgot request, no refills and basically awol after the meal was served. . .and it wasn't that busy. That said, I'd return to play pickelball and hopefully have a better server.

Great beer selection and the quality of the beer was solid too. Food as pretty darn good too--had the chicken burger and it was juicy and flavorful. My server was very friendly and accommodating as well. You could tell he took pride in the place.Room for improvement: Atmosphere was a little lacking/pretty quiet and subdued. Granted I was there on a Monday night, but great breweries often have a nice dull roar of happy talkative patrons. Prices were a little higher than I expected as well.All in all I would go back, but might opt for another day of the week in hopes of livelier environment.
