A Photo Tour of Downtown Plainfield, Indiana

Downtown Plainfield, Indiana, has undergone a transformation in recent years, and I love it! This area along U.S. 40 is full of revitalized energy. It's a great place to grab food, enjoy an event and even shop.

Let's take a peek at what's happening along Main Street in Plainfield:

Great Restaurants

Oasis Diner is often a destination spot with it's iconic look but it's truly a local favorite for breakfast, lunch or dinner in this historic diner. You can also enjoy pizza in a brick oven at Sal's Famous Pizzeria. The Prewitt Restaurant + Lounge has transformed the old theater into an upscale dining experience. Beyond the food and drinks, they also schedule live entertainment, movies and more. 

Just off of Main Street, you'll find Tlahcos, a newly opened restaurant that offers delicious Mexican cuisine and CJ's Pizza for more pizza options.

Enjoy Coffee, Desserts & Shopping

With fantastic spots like Two Chicks Whiskey on the east end of Main Street, and Oasis Diner and Al's Donuts on the west end, downtown Plainfield offers plenty of options for coffee and sweet treats.

Beyond the sweet treats, you can also find treats for your pup at Paw Street Bakery, and treats for yourself at places like Gear Up Cyclery and African Plum Home and More.
