Monon Food Company Opens Today in Broad Ripple

Celebrating local foods, local art and homegrown music, the Monon Food Company, 6420 Cornell, opens its doors today as the quintessential Broad Ripple hang. Right on the corner of 65th and Cornell, across from the Brew Pub, next to Plumps, the newly-repainted Grey and Red building adds a flair to the already happening corner. Inside, the amble dining room serves double-duty as an art gallery, where the work of local artists hang. The outside of the restaurant has been completely repainted and updated, with beautiful landscaping and a wide old-fashioned Indiana porch outfitted with wrought-iron tables and umbrellas.  The location is perfectly situated for enjoying a cool beverage (beer and wine) and watching the beautiful people pass along the adjacent Monon Trail.

The Monon Food Company is the brainchild of Indy Musicians Timothy Williams (percussionist for The Spud Puppies, (Re) Collective ) and Dave Bigley (guitarist for Liquid Circumstance, The Spud Puppies and many others). The two artists are local boys, who see the restaurant as an extension of their community involvement, the kind of place where they would want to eat, and hang out. "Good People Sharing Great Food," is our motto, Williams tells Indy Social, "And we mean it."

"The menu offers a little something for everyone -- from our rotisserie chicken which you can have in wraps or as a complete dinner, to our signature Chipotle Fish Tacos, and the Ultimate Mac and Cheese," said Williams. For meat lovers Monon offers Steak and Potato Plate, hamburgers, Slow Cooked Porked Ribs and a State Fair Sausage Sub! For seafood lovers there are Salmon Wraps and Grilled Tilapia. Monon Food Company also offers a Kids Menu, and a Vegetarian Menu, along with gourmet salads, and good selection of beer and wine.

The Monon Food Company is located at 6420 Cornell, Broad Ripple, on the corner across from the Brew Pub. Dine In * Carry Out. 317-722-0176
