Menus are now live for Devour Indy Winterfest 2026, giving diners across central Indiana an early look at more than 175 restaurants participating in the city’s premier dining event.
Presented by AAA Hoosier, Devour Indy Winterfest runs from Monday, Jan. 19 through Sunday, Feb. 1, inviting residents and visitors to explore Indianapolis’ culinary scene through specially priced, multi-course menus offered at restaurants throughout the region.
According to organizers, Winterfest highlights a wide range of dining experiences, including lunch and dinner prix fixe options, family-friendly meals, date-night destinations and upscale dining. Participating restaurants represent cuisines from around the world, including steakhouse fare, vegan offerings and globally inspired menus.
Just ahead of the event, Devour Indy also launched a fully redesigned DevourIndy.com, featuring improved navigation, enhanced search tools and expanded filters designed to make menu browsing easier. Diners can now search restaurants by location, price point, cuisine type and ownership designation, including filters for women-owned and minority-owned businesses.
“Menus are now live, and reservations are strongly encouraged,” organizers said in the announcement.
