We came here with a big group to watch the game and play some board games. There's a lot of seating options and it was a very open space. Our server was extremely attentive and consistently checked on our needs throughout our stay. We ordered drinks and were impressed with the selection of beers. I ordered the corn chowder and was not expecting it to be so delicious! And the serving size was so filling for a bowl. Really enjoyed it. My husband had burger and he appreciated that it was an actual piece of beef that could be cooked to his liking. Overall we were super happy and will be back. read more

I had not eaten here in a while and I had forgotten why. It was almost comical to walk in and immediately remember why I have not eaten here in a bit. It was not appetizing to see a flagrant health code violation when I went to pick up my food. I understand that my food is in a bag and in a box, but this is still gross and concerning. There are other burger and bar places in fountain square that will get my business, but I won't go to Upland again. read more

Upland FSQ Brewery - Cleaning rag and bucket by takeout food - Brewpubs Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

We love breweries but we came here because even though I am a vegetarian, I still want to try the local delicacies and I have been chomping at the bit to try a tenderloin sandwich ever since I learned of its existence during my trip research. This was a place reasonably close to downtown that had a vegan version on the menu. Like I said, GF and I love breweries so we took a good long look at the draught menu. There were multiple things that caught my attention but I settled on the champagne velvet because I like champagne and I like velvet and I have to agree with whoever named this shit. It is incredibly smooth. It was a very nice companion to our meal. GF ordered the sour peach which was also enjoyable. They both came in their own little glasses which was too cute. The vegan tenderloin was a given. The server asked me if I wanted fries, something that, in my experience, typically comes automatically. I'm glad it didnt' though because we had a lot to eat and gastric space was really a premium. He seemed to be taken aback by my declination and even further disturbed when GF ordered the Brussels sprouts as her meal. He literally had another server see us after we placed this order lmao. Probably nothing to do with it. But you never know. The seitanderloin sandwich didn't have the same apperaance (supposed to be bigger than the bun is my understanding but I am a foreigner to hoosier culture so what do I know) but it was INCREDIBLE. One of the best sandwiches I have ever had. The seitanderloin was thiccc and that fucking sauce is absolute crack. Out of this fucking world. GF agreed and she doesn't usually aggressively love something that much. The Brussels sprouts were also very good. A sweet sauce with Asian flare and a nice combo of textures with both the peanuts and the wonton strips. GF noted that a few more tbsp of those wonton strips would have really taken this over the edge. Service was great as well. Many many vegan options which I really appreciated. Can't go wrong here. Update upon reviewing the menu again online (not to order more seitanderloin for delivery after going out to dinner on our last night in Indy or anything) and's per the photos on Uber Eats they actually gave me what I think is the hot Nashville seitan sandwich instead. Ugh. Disappointing read more

The menu is large so there's an option for everyone, but I was a little let down from a quality perspective this time. We hadn't been in about 3-4 years, so we decided to return when we were visiting for the Indy 500. The Turkey Guac sammy was poorly constructed and lacked flavor. Felt like whoever assembled it could care less. The chips were good homemade chips. The pork rinds were pretty good. The other two at my table felt similar about their entrees, just okay. Service was rather absent for us too, despite very little crowd. I'm giving it a 4, because the first trip years ago was great but I wasn't yelping at that time. This trip was a 3/5. read more

Yum!!! This place is delicious!!! I was delighted by the fish and chips here. It was so crispy and flaky! The fries were also so crispy and flavorful. The tartar sauce was a major win as well - I don't always agree with it but it almost tasted more like an aioli! I've tried the mac and cheese here as well and it is heavenly. As a non-drinker, I'm always happy to go to Upland for the food options! Our service was a little slow but it was busy, so I'll cut them some slack! read more

Upland has some of the best beer I've ever had, and the food is amazing as well. I got a burger and it was soooo flavorful and the fries were great as well.

I absolutely loved my visit to Upland Brewing in Fountain Square! We visited on a Thursday night and it was still very lively! They had guests both inside and in the outside patio. The outside patio is also dog friendly which is a HUGE plus. Our server even gave our puppy a water bowl, which was so sweet. As for the drinks, we ordered the flight and it was so great to try the different options. My favorite was the porter. I also had the Thursday which is their sour series & I had the Two of Tarts. It was refreshing and the perfect amount of tartness. We also had the chicharrones, which paired well with the beer. It was served fresh and you can tell they had just prepared it. It was still sizzling by the time it came to our table. I loved the seasoning it had and with the hit of lime, it was perfect. I'm excited to come again in the future! read more

We just stopped in for an afternoon drink and to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine for the last day of August. He ordered the lemon blonde and I the raspberry bloom. Both good in their own way. We didn't know they had food otherwise we probably would have gotten a snack but we had one before we got there. Maybe next time. 4 stars for the good vibe, the outdoor area, drinks, and staff. I'm sure it would be a solid 5 had we gotten food. All good, definitely coming back sometime. read more

Upland FSQ Brewery - Our table after a long evening spent on the patio - Brewpubs Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I've been to this location a few times. The food is usually pretty decent, but the service could definitely improve. It always seems to take a long time for food to come out, no matter how busy or empty it is. Today's lunch visit was especially disappointing. When my burger was brought out, I was asked if I wanted any other condiments. I asked for ranch, but it never came. My soda was empty for my entire meal, and no one stopped by to check on us for refills or to bring the ranch. Not a huge deal, but annoying for sure. I ordered my burger medium well, but the inside was very pink. Since no one came by to check on our table, I ate what I could because I was hungry, but ended up feeling nauseous (I really don't like any pink meat, hence why I order medium well). I took a photo of what I ended up not eating. When we paid, I mentioned the undercooked burger, and the response was basically, "I thought I said medium well, that looks like medium rare," before asking for my debit card. I wasn't expecting a discount, but I did expect more than an "oops." We had talked about grabbing a few six-packs to go for upcoming holiday parties, but decided not to because of the experience today. I'm sure we will be back at some point because it's in the neighborhood, but it will be awhile. For those who don't like undercooked meat, I would probably avoid burgers here, and not expect the best service. read more

The food was not decent. I like that they had vegan options. As far as vegan food goes not bad, but it could be improved (sandwich was a little dry. Perhaps they could've made a vegan coleslaw for it). I like that they had a non-alcoholic beer as well. If you're looking for a brewery/pub type vibe and offerings, definitely give it a try. Service unfortunately could've been better. Waited a long time for food and never received the side of barbecue that I requested. I understand that my server might've been new as someone else came over to apologize. but still not ideal. read more

We've been to Upland brewing Company, many times both the ones in Broad Ripple fountain Square and downtown Columbus, Indiana all of them are unique in their own way the one in fountain Square is light airy you can sit outside. The food is absolutely delicious. The picture I took is one of their premier beers and I mean, they have beers and sours. The service is tremendous the little girl that waited on us provided the table with guidance on beer, selection and many samples, I would highly recommend this place if you want to kick back drink some beer and eat some tremendous food. My personal favorite is the Nashville hot chicken or the nachos can't go wrong with either one read more

Two stars but our wonderful waitress prompted me to give the extra star. I've come here several times and honestly just not a fan. It's popular, very chill vibe if you want drinks and just a nice hang. Food wise, wouldn't recommend. I've gotten a few things previously. The last time I got the salad and it was overpriced but subpar, this time I did the nachos which were nice and loaded but the chips were *extremely* salty I couldn't put much of a dent in in. Details on cost/price for additions is in photo. FS location is by far best location wise but again, food is a little.. meh. read more

I love the big bold vibe here! This is a brewery where you can sit and chill at the bar and talk to the beer tender, but it's also one of those bars that can accommodate really large groups. It's a great place to take your soccer/volleyball/curling/climbing team. It's a great place to have a birthday. I didn't have any food, but the food menu looked pretty good. The beers on top were an interesting mix of classic lagers and some easy drinking Belgian beers. There were lots of very sessionable beers, which I loved. The wide range of moderate alcohol beers coupled with a fast Wi-Fi make this a great place to get some work done! read more

It's nice to visit Indy and see Fountain Square all growed up with awesome local spots along the main stretch. I've always been a fan of Upland - they're one of the Indiana craft beer OGs, so I was pleasantly surprised to see them in the restaurant space. My brother and his coworkers have an office space nearby and this place has become a staple in their lunch rotation. With mine/my mom's visit it was nice to lunch there after checking out the office. Due to our group size, we were directed to the outside patio for one of the large tables (why not, it was nice/cool for us Zonies). But ignored for about 10-15 minutes! Such a bummer to start lunch off- it was like pulling teeth to get someone to acknowledge us, take drink/food orders, etc until my brother went up to the bar. The beers in my flight were fine. Nothing crazy/experimental was on tap so I stuck to light otions. It was a bit of a disappointment I couldn't get the Pacers beer on tap, but the Hoosier one was nice. The only one I really disliked was the Two Tart (still trying to acclimate to Goses). And Holy Sandwich -- the Tendys in Indy indeed are still the size of my face (or bigger). Definitely hit the spot, complemented by crispy fries and a umami aoli. If I still lived in the area I def would make this a regular hangout spot for me and my friends. read more

Always a Hit! I've been to several Upland locations, and it smacks every time. Listen, you CANNOT go to Upland and not get the mac and cheese. It's genuinely the best I've ever had--and I'm picky about my mac and cheese. If you don't get it as your meal, at least get it as a side. Trust me. I tried Zest to Impress on tap, and it was pretty good! Definitely a true sour ale, but if you're into that, you'll love it. read more

Lyric was our awesome server! She was so bubbly and friendly -- I hope we get her again next time. Even when we made a few special requests, she went above and beyond with a smile. We started with the whipped feta appetizer (highly recommend!) and it was delicious. My fiancé had the blackened salmon BLT, and I ordered the steak and frites -- my go-to dish because they always cook the steak to perfection. The flavor is consistently top-notch and it's honestly one of my favorites in the city. For drinks, I had the Campfire Ale and my fiancé had the Wheat Ale. I usually lean toward cocktails here, but nothing on the seasonal list really jumped out at me this time. I haven't found a beer I love at Upland yet, but the food more than makes up for it! Upland's dinner and brunch are neighborhood staples for us, and this visit reminded us why. We can't wait to come back again soon! read more

This was my first time having Upland during Devour, and it didn't disappoint! We sat on the outdoor patio which has plenty of seating space and room for dogs.

Spoiler alert, my food was so good I forgot the most important rule of Yelp: the phone eats first. Upland FSQ is a bit of an Indy staple, and I've been before but only got around to writing my review now. Famous for their signature brews, you have no trouble finding anything beer-related on the menu. All drinks are listed on their website, including a few N/A beers(!!) with just their food options on the paper menu. A Wednesday night is actually kind of busy so service was not the quickest but perfectly within reason given the crowd size. The space is also a little loud since it's more of an open concept space but you also get to look at the impressive display of legs with this. I ordered... Pulled pork sandwich with beer cheese fries ($15): probably amongst two of my favorite foods in the whole world. I am only remiss that I couldn't get a picture of my plate to share with you all :/ read more

Two years later and I love this place still as much as I did two years ago. Upland is consistently delicious and I love their beer. This is a family favorite, especially in the summer when we can sit on the patio and then explore other parts of Fountain Square. The WIT mac hand cheese is still my all time favorite there! I recently had fried chicken added and that was delicious too. I've never had bad service during any and all of my visits. Always recommend! read more

This is a great addition to the neighborhood. It is HUGE and there is plenty of seating. They also have their own parking lot which is great because sometimes it can be hard to find street parking in this area. The food here is a step above your typical bar food and borders on gastropub-by. I ordered the guajlo steak tacos. You assemble them yourself (you get 5 corn tortillas) and it comes with 2 taco sauces (green and red), cabbage, pickled onions, lime wedges, and sour cream. The pork was tender and moist and had a nice spice level. Service was very fast as the food came out before I had even finished my first beer. (About the beer...they have a wide selection of Upland beers and carry a lot of their sours which they are known for now) read more

It's good food for the price but the service left me scratching my head. It may have just been a bad night but our group was left waiting to place our order for awhile and hanging with empty drink cups for long stretches. I ended up just going to the bar for refills. The waitstaff were nice enough but they may have just been overwhelmed. The food itself was good and the menu seems to have something for everyone. I'm willing to go back again but am hesitant solely on the service. read more

Went on a double date night here and kinda wish we would have went somewhere else. Our server was nice but she had a large party that took all of her time so it was little disappointing having to wait to order more drinks and our entrees. We tried a wide variety of beers and we were all able to find one that fit our taste. My personal favs were the peach and the cherry. Both were a little sour but had a great after taste. Highly recommend if you aren't a fan of hoppy beers. Another popular amping our group was the Oktoberfest it was better than most. Apps: chicken wings had a great sauce with a sweet yet a little kick to it. They were fried perfectly. Spinach and artichoke dip with pita bread and chips. Hands down the best we've ever had. I would come in here just for this. Had plenty of artichoke pieces and was chunky yet creamy. I can't say enough good things about it. Whipped feta and pita bread. I personal felt it could have been more of a creamy consistency. I felt as though it had a blue cheese texture. It was my least favorite app For entrees 2 had burgers. The queso burger was amazing and cooked perfectly however the classic burger was way over cooked. The Nashville hot chicken was very hot however the heat level apparently depends on how old the sauce is that day so beware of that when you order. I ordered the pig and fig sandwich. I learned I do not like fig jam and I didn't care for the patty either it was over cooked and dry. Overall we would come back for appetizers and a beer. read more

Tried a variety of brews here and ended up loving the Revive - a barrel-aged fruited sour!

Nothing to write home about but nothing bad either. read more

I love this place! I still remember when it was an old vintage shop (before FS was so gentrified). There's an ample-sized parking lot, plus lots of free street parking. The interior is HUGE and they have a great patio that is dog-friendly. It's a very industrial look (it is a brewery) and is a great space for meeting friends. The beer is good (I'm not a huge beer fan). I LOVE their menu. Their Mac and cheese is phenomenal. I love their burger, esp when I sub for grilled chicken. They also have THE BEST PICKLES IN THE WORLD. And their fries are 98% of the time absolutely fantastic. Service is always great, and you pay your bill right at the table with the server, which makes things faster. read more

**BRUNCH REVIEW ONLY** We went here for brunch a few weeks back and I was surprised by the presentation and type of brunch that was served. I had been here previously for the Bagel Breakfast Sandwich and it SLAPPED so hard!!! We got the Chicken and Waffles, Biscuits and Gravy and French Toast. As you can see, it's very much presentation-heavy, however I found the flavors were lacking and did not meet my expectations. The chicken and waffles went pretty heavy on the rosemary / seasoning which was unexpected and not desired. The French toast was good, but too sweet for me. The biscuits and gravy were good, but I wish it were more sausage heavy! I'll totally be back for brunch, but only for the Breakfast Bagel!!! read more

Good food, good service, good brews. Its pretty much everything you would expect from a modern brewpub. They have about 30 beers on tap which you will have to weave through to find your favorite. Food is pretty standard pub fare - burgers, sandwiches, nachos. And they dont skimp or cut corners. $20 for a burger, fries and beer is a pretty good deal in today's market. Nothing creative on the menu but thats ok. The quality is there. Service was friendly and flirty. Good place. read more

Food was fine (mostly) however they served my friend that is pregnant a non N.A. beer instead of the one she ordered, and gave my other friend RAW chicken on her salad. Also gave me a classic negroni filled to the brim with tequila which was bananas but that was an easy fix. The beer was good, everything else was mediocre, and our server was genuinely so sweet and helpful- everything that went wrong was out of her control and the party was about 14 people so I get it, but those two errors were pretty substantial. read more

We came to upland on a Sunday during brunch house, I believe those are 11am-2pm. Their brunch menu is small but everything we've tried has been very good. They host a DJ that tends to be a little louder than I would like but it's not unbearable. On this visit we had a spicy Bloody Mary which was right on point!! The big nasty is a half order of B&G's with a piece of fried chicken, topped with an egg cooked to order... very filling and has a great flavor. The egg sandwich is another great option, it consists of an everything bagel, egg cooked to order, bacon, and a tomato jam. I definitely trying this out! The service has always been good with everything coming to the table just as we ordered. read more

This is my first time here, but I have always wanted to check it out. And tonight's experience was exactly what I had hoped for. It is a very industrial looking building just in fountain Square. They have all the brewing equipment next to the seating area of the Restaurant. A bar is centered right in the middle of the restaurant. There are a number of tables inside and also a very large patio area to eat outside when it's nice like tonight. The food is very good lots of burgers, salads sandwiches. But the whole place is designed around the Brewery. The service was excellent. Our waitress kept coming back checking on us making sure we had what we needed, the food came out very quickly. It was hot,fresh, excellent. The beer was great, very fresh and super cold. We did the devour Indy Summerfest menu. It's a great deal for great food. We got an appetizer to share, we got the pretzel with beer cheese and fancy mustard. For dinner, my wife got fish and chips. It was crispy and fresh and came with great, thick french fries. They were also crispy on the outside, very soft on the inside. I got the macaroni and cheese. It was very good. Pasta with tons of cheese, garlic, and breadcrumbs on top. It was excellent. Then for dessert, we got a brownie with whipped cream and caramel topping. It was hot and fresh, very rich and chocolatey. The atmosphere in the building was a welcoming place. Very friendly, lots of conversation, even the people next to us gave us a suggestion on the food and it didn't feel uncomfortable when they did. Highly recommended. read more

I went here for brunch with a friend on a Saturday. This is a strong option for brunch. Upland's food is always insanely good. This time I got their chicken and biscuits and they were great. The biscuits were fluffy and buttery, the gravy was delicious and peppery, and the fried chicken was so juicy. Another 10/10 food option from Upland. I also got a "beermosa" with brunch. That was really good too! They have their own parking lot, so it's easy to drive to. They are also very close to the IndyGo Redline Fountain Square stop and the cultural trail bike path.
