Barons Bus Lines
Pros: The driver was great at his job and very professional. The staff at the Indianapolis bus station not super helpful or cheerful at all. They did answer my questions but fell like I disturbed them. Also the bus station in Indianapolis was a bit dirty and messy. Cons: Staff at Indianapolis bus station.

Over the past few years, Indianapolis has also been cultivating a vibrant restaurant scene, offering classic American dishes made with ingredients from local farmers, and a growing selection of international cuisine.
