Come on in, Sit Back, Relax & Soak up the History of Indiana’s Oldest Bar. The Knickerbocker Saloon, Indiana's oldest bar, has stories to share. President Grant, Mark Twain, Al Capone, and Neil Armstrong have visited us for a drink (or several) over the 180 years we have been in business. Established in 1835, the Knickerbocker has been serving Greater Lafayette (and visitors alike) an array of coc

ktails, beers, and wines, all with our renowned hospitality. Whether our guests are looking to enjoy a drink or two conversing with friends on our patio, have us cater a private event, or want to have a night out listening to Ryan Rollins, Knickerbocker's own Piano Man, an Acoustic Series set, or some upcoming local talent, we have you covered. We have also recently (August 2019) added four bristle dartboards and a billiards table to our entertainment room for all to enjoy. We offer the full Digby's Pub menus to our guests with free delivery. We invite you to stop by the Knickerbocker Saloon and be a part of Downtown Lafayette history in the making.

Mark your calendars for August 28th!
We have an out of town band stopping by Indiana’s oldest bar!

Cody Bolden and The Roadhands are an Atlanta-based country outfit blending traditional country, heartfelt ballads, classic honky-tonk, and Southern storytelling.

Since releasing their debut album Roadhand in 2021, the band has established itself through road-tested performances, vivid songwriting, and a deep appreciation for country music's rich traditions.

Their sophomore album, Keep on Working, expanded their reach throughout Texas and the Southeast, while appearances at the Tennessee Music and Motorcycle Revival and FloydFest helped introduce their music to new audiences.

Their third full-length album, Menace to Myself, arrives October 3, 2026.

Glide Magazine described the band's single "Lightning In A Bottle" as "a hard-hitting work of guitar-soaked Southern rock. For fans of groups like Blackberry Smoke, Gov’t Mule, and even Pony Bradshaw, this song will definitely hit home with its balance of poignant, haunting lyrics and plenty of bluesy guitar shredding. The band also works in a healthy dose of country swagger, ultimately making for the kind of tune well-suited for big rowdy crowds or dark and smoky bars."

Show starts at 8 o’clock tonight! Make this rainy day a little brighter with $6 martinis and some live music!
