About The Sports Bra Indy

The Sports Bra Indy is Indianapolis' first sports bar dedicated to celebrating women's sports. More than a restaurant, we're building a community gathering space where great food, exceptional hospitality, and equity in sports come together. We believe food is a form of welcome, and our made-from-scratch menu is crafted to be familiar, unpretentious, and seriously delicious, with options for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free guests. We champion and empower girls and women on and off the field, and we welcome everyone to the table.

Values in Action

The Sports Bra Indy is more than a sports bar. We're a community built on the belief that women's sports deserve a seat at the table, and so does everyone who walks through our door. We're looking for a Kitchen Manager who leads with that same conviction: someone who takes pride in food that is made from scratch and made for everyone, who builds a kitchen culture rooted in respect and belonging, and who understands that what happens behind the line directly shapes the experience out front.

What Success Looks Like

Consistent food quality and guest satisfaction
Strong health inspection results
Controlled food and labor costs
