Metro Nightclub & Restaurant 707 Massachusetts Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46204

"The place made a great first impression. On a busy night, the whole upper floor can be crowded, but service stayed quick, and the atmosphere was excellent."

"Love metro! Such a safe and fun space and is inclusive to all! Staff is attentive to needs and fun. Dj’s are typically good. I prefer this to the other LGBT bars out there. Food is typically good, but if bar food isn’t your thing, there’s so many options you can walk to."

"Metro use to be the pulse of the people. It’s under new management now who have instituted a cover and make folks wait out in the cold to give the appearance of a packed house. Metro used to be the place where Black and other marginalized people congregated, but those day are no more. Save yourself time and disappointment and go to Tini’s or Ivy. It’s the same building, but not the same place. So sad."

"had a little bit *too* much fun at karaoke at metro this past sunday evening. apparently they do it every thursday and sunday night, and overall, it was a good/chill bar and a good time. try their kool aid shot (be careful, they're dangerously delicious) and they also had this sunny d (yes the orange juice drink you may have had as a child) + vodka drink in a can that i was sipping on that night as well. P.S. -------- sorry for any drama i may have attempted to cause just before leaving the club - when my third song got skipped bc she "didn't have it" (even tho it was on the website that the DJ referred me to on her QR code sign thing), it was kind of annoying that i wasn't able to sing another song bc i was really feeling the vibe and having a good time prior...i don't go out or at least karaoke very much, so when i do, i like to go all out and sing as much as i can. i was disappointed to be skipped that early in the night when there weren't very many people, and then i was asked to wait through another whole round of singers before going again rather than her just allowing me to sing a different song next in the queue since my original pick was skipped. admittedly it doesn't take much for me to flip that switch when i've had a few and something goes wrong, so i'm sorry again...i do remember saying something to the bartender about the DJ, but wanted to follow up with this review to recommend the bar and clarify that i do hope to stop by again someday, just maybe after they get a different karaoke DJ. the one they had when i went there earlier this year was very chill and accepted tips to jump the line which made it easy to have a good time and not have to wait an hour to sing another song. sunday night was the most recent of 3/4 times i've done karaoke at metro over the years, and i had a great time all times except this one where i got a weird vibe from the DJ and decided to leave early."

"One of my favorite places in Indy. It's great as a bar, but the food is also absolutely phenomenal. The breaded buffalo cauliflower bites are a personal favorite, and I love that they're fried in a separate fryer away from the meat products! The bar on the first floor and the bartenders are great, karaoke is always fun, and the bathrooms are clean and gender inclusive. Upstairs, there is a dance floor with a live dj, it than can get VERY packed and sweaty but it's also always a great time. Out back, there is a large fenced-in in patio with abundant tables and chairs. Smoking is allowed out there, and servers run out there as well. I have never met an employee of the bar who wasn't helpful, friendly, accepting, on top of everything, and just all around excellent at their job. Whether you're looking to sit down for a meal, belly up to a bar for shots, hang out on a patio with friends, or get messy on the dance floor, Metro has it all :)"
