Your newest hangout before or after dinner should definitely be Conner’s Rooftop. Found on the top floor of the Hampton Inn & Suites in downtown Fort Wayne, this bar gives you an experience unlike any other in Fort Wayne. You can see for miles from this indoor/outdoor all-season bar that gives a nearly 180 degree view of downtown Fort Wayne towards Parkview Field. If you’re feeling grabbing a bite, Conner’s Rooftop has smaller-sized dishes.
Burger Bar
How do a burger, fries, and shake sound? A recently-opened spot that has caught the eyes of several heading down West Jefferson Boulevard or those walking into the Hampton Inn & Suites, or even Conner’s Rooftop (which is upstairs), you’ll discover the Burger Bar.
Choose from single or double cheeseburgers or hamburgers, regular fries or cheese fries. Or, mix it up and go for the chicken tenders or a chicken sandwich. Also, you might want to grab a shake to-go or while you’re devouring some tasty grub.
Burger Bar hosts seating both inside and outside with even a “walk-up” service window that you can order at. Make your next walk around downtown include a stop here.
