Root Cellar

"I’m disappointed as of late because root cellar is a safe place for many 21+ but as of late many underage people have been let in."

"I can’t even give this place 1 star! I’m absolutely disgusted with how I was treated by the bouncer! I wasn’t even drunk, actually it was the 1st bar I went to… didn’t pregame COMPLETELY SOBER!!!!!!!!! Mind you I’m also 25 and have gone to multiple bars in Indy! I was already super Skeptical about going to Btown bars w all the students but wanted to push through! There were about 4 steps ( mind you we literally just had an ice storm as well, the ground was completely covered as well as their stairs with ice ) anyways! I waited in line for 20 mins in the cold! Again I’m completely sober! As I’m walking down the stairs to get into the bar I slipped on the last step, the bouncer immediately said I was NOT welcomed and I was way too drunk mind you those were his exact words! My friend tried to go without me so she could start her fun Saturday then he told her she wasn’t welcomed even without me!!! I’m absolutely disgusted with how I was treated and it was carried on to my friend! This is exactly why you most definitely Shouldn’t have students as your bouncers LOL should’ve asked his name but I was so upset and felt so weird! He was tall ,younger looking, brown hair, slim body… I will never come here again and have already reached out to management! I just felt like sharing this in case others have experienced this or it was simply an IU student that has zero knowledge. Either way btown bars suck! Go to Indy!!! Better people, better bars, better atmosphere!"

"Back in Bloomington for an IU Reunion. Stopped at Root Cellar, had a great time!"

"Great venue for small concerts where the band plays right alongside the audience. Good lighting with cool water effects on the walls and a wide selection of beer on the tap. Check it out!"
