Thirsty for better times? Chase away those Recession Blues every Thursday in the heart of Elkhart. All day specials in some of Northern Indiana's friendliest restaurants and bars. Consult our list of 11 downtown eating and drinking establishments. Specials will change every week. Park and walk to one or more of these Heart City eateries and drinkeries. Live music, wine, pool, awesome burgers, games, seafood and even (gasp!) smoking (until May 15, but only where noted). A spot for every taste and desire.
