No. 8: Fuel your visit with a taste of Indy’s best
You can’t innovate if you’re hungry. There are so many amazing options for food and drinks in downtown Indianapolis! A great source for finding a destination is Indianapolis Monthly’s Restaurant Guide.
Very close to the Indiana Convention Center, visit Cafe Patachou, a local Indianapolis staple for breakfast and lunch. Also nearby is Conner’s Kitchen + Bar. There you can find everything to feed you from breakfast to nightcaps.
St. Elmo Steak House has been a landmark in downtown Indianapolis since 1902. If the dining room is full, get a drink at the 1933 Lounge or visit its sister restaurant Harry and Izzy’s practically next door.
No. 9: Do more in the Demo Arena
There’s more to the Demo Arena than the most innovative products and services from around the globe. This is where you can meet new contacts, hear pitches, play games and more.
