If you’re in Indianapolis, don’t miss Mel’s Drive In! 🍔 This cozy diner takes you back to the good old days with its classic vibe and a menu that doesn’t disappoint. I had the double cheeseburger with jalapeño howlers, and let me tell you, it was phenomenal - perfectly cooked and not greasy at all! Their chocolate shake? A must-try!

The staff was welcoming and attentive, making my quick lunch a truly enjoyable experience. With its affordable prices and delicious comfort food, Mel's is a hidden gem worth visiting... Definitely a Diamond In The Rough! ⭐️
