Champion's Sports Bar   

Like a true man's den, the dark green interior of Champion's Sports Bar is full of wood accents, with sports photos and memorabilia lining the walls, including the composite top of an Indy racecar. There's no mistaking the sports theme, and no missing the game with 37 TVs (two of which are big-screen). It's elbow-to-elbow during Colts games. Also busy after an Indians game and during big conventions, Champions draws a mixed crowd to its dining room and two bar areas. Pool, basketball, darts and plenty of video games keep the conversation flowing. The menu features much more than pub food; ribeyes, chops and salmon highlight the dinner list, with a variety of sandwiches, soups and salads for lighter bites. A few unusual dishes are eye-catching, including Scottish eggs, which are hard-boiled with sausage. Drink specials feature homegrown concoctions like Blue Wahoo, which uses Grey Goose vodka. -- Lori Lovely
