Louis Stamatkin opened the Belmont Lunch sandwich shop in 1918 but the name was changed more than half a century ago. Now The Workingman's Friend, the place is still hoppin' and his descendents run the place. Knock back a mason jar of iced tea if you have to go back to work or a 32-ounce beer on a Saturday.

Yummy

I ate here and looks can throw you off - it's really good. But cash only.

Try the Jalapeno Burger

The decor could use some updating, but no one seems to notice once the food comes out. A nice selection of burgers including my favorite the jalapeno burger. Very good onion rings and chili among other options for side dishes. The crowd is a mix of business casual and blue collar workers, which is a nice change.

Great Service, Great Food

High Quality Hamburgers and great service are what keep this place going. Don't judge a book by it's cover, it may not look like much, but it's charm is what makes it so great.

If I wanted to go to Steak 'n Shake I would have just gone down the street...

I'm sorry the hamburgers here are exactly like Steak 'n Shake. That's not a bad thing as they are good but people over-rate this place like crazy. I mean if you are in the area eat there but don't drive all the way out there to get something you could get at every major Indy area.
