Food Scene
Nap's Cucina Mia
1035 Philadelphia StA nice, intimate, family-run business where the food is always delicious.
Bruno's is an Indiana classic. They will pack up orders to go or you can eat in. Their red blue cheese salad dressing is a favorite of ours. If you love spaghetti, lasagna or manicotti, go to Bruno's. If you want other pastas, go to Naps.

Benjamin's is a little more 'upscale' (as far as Indiana restaurants go). Located downtown in a reclaimed home, the restaurant offers great food and a nice atmosphere. When the weather is good, we like to sit out in the back garden.

Culpeppers has been in downtown Indiana for decades. A few years ago, they expanded their space to add pool tables and much more space. Good for bar food as well, the place offers a nightlife (or lunch hour or dinner) option that isn't crowded with college kids.
