Rise and Revel: West Fork Whiskey’s Newest Venture in Fountain Square

West Fork Whiskey has been a big part of the Indianapolis whiskey scene since the beginning, and they’ve grown right alongside the city’s booming whiskey culture. From their original downtown spot to their massive distillery on the north side, they’ve always found ways to expand and evolve. Now, they’re taking things even further with their newest venture—Rise and Revel—a sister location in Fountain Square that blends the best parts of a coffee shop and a cocktail bar. It’s designed for people who want a place to work, meet up, or just hang out, starting with great coffee in the morning and transitioning into whiskey and cocktails as the day goes on.

This concept feels like a perfect fit for the remote work era, where people are ditching traditional offices and instead setting up shop in places with good drinks and good vibes. And with Fountain Square’s continued growth, it’s exciting to see a local brand like West Fork trying something new. I’ve gotten to know the team behind this, and they’re always pushing the envelope. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on how Rise and Revel develops because this could be something really special for Indy.
