  1. I’m a huge proponent of live music so I loved the bands they booked. Nowhere near our house unfortunately so we have only visited a handful of times. Great atmosphere and drinks though. Sad to see it go.

  2. Duke’s has been a great contribution to the culture of Indianapolis. Props to these owners for standing up a great juke joint with live honky tonk music, a big dance floor, good food, cool bartenders. I’m calling it a successful run.
