We are EatHere

Rooted in local food

Eat Here Indy LLC (EatHere) operates EatHere, with a Discovery side for local food-and-drink coverage and a Marketplace side as a shopping destination.

EatHere brings local food and drink into focus—from neighborhood restaurants and coffee shops to growers, markets, food makers and community resources. Our mission is to support small food businesses, celebrate cultural diversity and help address food equity in our communities.

We started in Indianapolis with a belief that food creates connection. That belief still guides us as we bring together food stories, useful information and opportunities to support local businesses across our city network.

Discover what’s around you

Discovery is EatHere’s home for food and drink coverage: restaurant features, city collections, markets, events, agriculture and food-assistance guides. We aim to give you specific, useful details about each suggestion—not a wall of star ratings or a generic restaurant directory.

RestaRecs adds a conversation to that discovery. Ask about food, drinks or your next meal, then follow up to narrow your options. Its AI-generated suggestions are a starting point; check current hours, menus and availability with the business before heading out.

Make the connection. Shop local.

Finding a new favorite should open a door for the people behind it. EatHere Marketplace is a separate destination to explore food and drink products from kitchen creators, growers and makers.

Discovery connects you to Marketplace; it does not take orders or process payments. Product prices, availability and purchase details are handled at the shopping destination.

Useful information. Honest coverage.

We build coverage from restaurant and organizer information, credible sources and location research. AI helps with research, organization and drafting; it does not turn an unsupported claim into a fact or replace editorial responsibility.

We do not imply we visited a location unless that is established. Information changes, and our work includes correcting errors and removing outdated suggestions. Read our ethics policy for our standards on accuracy, sponsorships and source material.
