Taphouse on the Edge
Location: 1803 South Bend Ave. | South Bend
The name is a nod to it being on the "edge" of campus. Taphouse is a sports bar locals love for its big menu (and great burgers) and tap list full of local and regional beers.
Extra Point: Bar Louie

Bar Louie is a little more chic than the average sports bar but remains a popular spot for gameday revelers a little ways from campus. Flatbread and burgers are dependable choices on the menu. There's also a large rooftop deck.
