Netasha & Lucas
Things To Do
The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers, Carmel City Center
Nestled right in the same square as Hotel Carmichael; stop by and enjoy a delicious slice of cake, cup of coffee, and maybe a cocktail.
Iaria's Italian Restaurant
We went here for our first date in 2019, recreated it in 2020, and we may just have to make it a tradition of ours no matter where we happen to be in the world.
Livery
Netasha's favorite restaurant in Indianapolis! The food is absolutely delicious - be sure to try their empanadas and brussel sprouts!
The Eagle
If you're looking for some southern comfort food, the Eagle is the place to go. They are known for their fried chicken, mac'n'cheese, and sweet potatoes.
Vivante French Eatery
Located within Hotel Carmichael, convenient stop for a quick brunch on your way out on Sunday. The food is absolutely phenomenal!
Lucas Oil Stadium
Home to the Indianapolis Colts - if you're a football fan, you must swing by and check it out. And maybe come back in town for an actual Colts game :)
Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum
The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum presents the stories of racing here, the history of the automotive industry in Indiana, and has memorabilia from race events around the world.
Newfields
One of our favorite places to walk around and stop by for a quick drink at the Beer Garden. It's absolutely beautiful! Newfields also houses the Indianapolis Museum of Art.
Goodfellas Mass Ave
Your go-to late night pizza joint! And tucked away towards the back of the establishment is small speakeasy. We have had way too many slices of pizza here and we don't regret it one bit!
Union 50
We went here to celebrate when Lucas officially asked Netasha to be his girlfriend - praise!!! If you're feeling fancy, head on over to Union 50 for an incredible meal.
The Rathskeller
Where we first met through a mutual friend. Check out the outdoor Biergarten and stay for some live music.
Commissary Barber & Barista
One of our favorite, local coffee shops. Lucas knows Netasha's order by heart - matcha latte with oat milk - and has brought home plenty of cups for her during the work day.
Thaitanium
Our absolute favorite Thai restaurant in Indianapolis - if you know Netasha, she's a huge fan of Thai food and got Lucas hooked on it too.
Helium Comedy Club - Indianapolis
If you need a laugh, grab your tickets to a show here! We went here for the first time with a group of friends and it was a blast!
Bru Burger Bar
If you're in the mood for burgers, Bru Burger is the spot to go. They have a couple really good veggie options as well - even Lucas eats Netasha's fake meat haha!
Bazbeaux Pizza (Carmel)
A local favorite for pizza - they have plenty of options that will be sure to please everyone at the table.
Sun King Carmel
One of Lucas' favorite breweries, Sun King is the second largest brewery in the state!
Daniel's Vineyard
Netasha loves herself a glass of wine (or two) and this is one of the cutest little wineries in the area. Check it out!
Canal Bistro
Our favorite mediterranean food in the Indy area - great for brunch, lunch, and dinner! Their falafel is delicious!
Petite Chou Bistro & Champagne Bar
We happened to stumble upon this cute little spot one morning in Broad Ripple. We stopped in for brunch - their food was delicious and we recommend sitting out on their front patio area.
Penn & Beech
Lucas took Netasha out to make a custom candle here for her 25th birthday - it's a super fun, unique experience. They also have ready-made candles available for purchase.
kOMpose Yoga
Netasha began teaching yoga while she was in Austin, TX and immediately found kOMpose upon moving to Indianapolis. If you need a quick yoga break, check out the studio.
