Rock-Cola 50s Cafe

Inside a low cinderblock building painted over in an American Graffiti motif, classic breakfast and lunch platters receive the short-order treatment. The counter-side stainless-steel kitchen has seen its share of burgers and fried mushrooms, and watching the cooks work their magic back there is part of the draw. In the Hoosier tradition, a breaded pork fritter nearly eclipses its plate, and the Mile High Club—buttressed by three pieces of Texas toast—replaces the tasseled toothpick with a steak knife. Wash it down with a flavored Coke or cinnamon shake. Breakfast and lunch Sun.–Mon., dinner Tues.–Sat.
