Gotta love that & We stopped in during the morning and they had breakfast sandwiches along with bakery items from Rosie's Place in Noblesville -- including their famous gooey cookies, which was a fun local touch. I had a chai tea latte that was excellent and also tried the Golden Glow, one of several healthy energy/wellness shots they offer. Great atmosphere, good drinks and a nice mix of coffee shop, breakfast spot and neighborhood hangout. Definitely a place I'd come back to!

Some places just have that "let's stay for one more drink" kind of energy…read more Tick Tock Lounge was supposed to be a relaxing afternoon stop, and before we knew it, we'd settled in for hours. We grabbed a table outside and watched the place slowly fill up. Even as it got busier, our waitress somehow never skipped a beat. She was juggling a full section, recommending menu favorites, and even mixed up a drink for me when I couldn't decide what I wanted. Those are the servers you remember. Let's talk about that Bloody Mary... I've seen Bloody Marys that came with a celery stalk. This one came with what felt like an entire appetizer sampler balanced on top. Bacon, cheese, olives, pepperoni...if you leave hungry after finishing one of these, that's on you. Bloody Mary Overachievement Meter: (possibly qualifies as brunch.) The burger completely lived up to the hype. Crispy edges, juicy center, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. The hand-dipped chicken fingers were every bit as good, and the fries became dangerous the second they met the homemade ranch. (Yes...get the ranch.) Ranch Dunkability Meter: 9.8/10. I'd happily dip "just one more fry" about seventeen times. Inside, you'll find live music, TVs with whatever game is on, and a crowd that somehow makes you feel like you've been stopping in for years. It's casual, welcoming, and exactly what you hope a neighborhood tavern will be. Parking can be a little tricky depending on the time of day, but it's absolutely worth circling the block once if you have to.

It's got a western ish feel to it with plenty of TVs with games showing. I ordered the All American Steak burger with all toppings available and pepper jack cheese. It did not disappoint. For $11 for everything you see here???? That's an amazing deal. The pepper jack was also had some good kick to it which I especially liked. This is a repeat for sure. Edited to say the Bloody Mary comes with a whole stalk of celery, a skewer of olives/cheese/pepperoni, and tater tots. It's massive and truly like a meal all by itself.

The lounge is much larger now, with additional seating and a cozy lounge area in the back featuring comfortable couches. It feels much more open while still keeping the intimate speakeasy atmosphere. This is one of my favorite places for craft cocktails because there's always something new to try. Their menu changes seasonally, so even if you've been before, you'll usually find new creations alongside their signature cocktails. The drinks are true works of art, both in flavor and presentation. On my most recent visit, I tried a cocktail off the Pride menu called the Stonewall, and it was absolutely delicious. It had a beautiful pink color, and I loved the glass it was served in. The presentation is always top notch. Service was good. The drink was also only $10, which is pretty cheap for the quality compared to other places. We didn't stay long this visit, but it's always one of my go to spots to relax, catch up with friends, and enjoy expertly crafted cocktails. An added bonus is that you can order food from Goodfellas Pizza and enjoy it while you're in the lounge, making it an even better experience.

I was curious about the Windsor sling since it has so many strange ingredients but was very yummy - nice little mezcal drink with a slight spice.

Every Thursday, they feature live Jazz AND half off bottles of wine. Plus, food until late. What more can you ask for? It's really the perfect setup. Music starts at 8pm, and I'd recommend arriving not too long after if you want a good seat. They usually have two sets (with the second starting around 9pm), and sometimes people who came for the first set will clear out around then, so you might find seats opening up if you arrive later. During the day, you order at the counter up front, but on jazz nights they have servers assigned to each table, which is a nice touch! These Jazz nights make for a great date night or a fun evening out with friends.
