Hoagies & Hops in Indianapolis is known for crafting sandwiches using high-quality meats and veggies for hoagies and cheesesteaks that keep customers coming back for more. LoveFood says:

Bringing a taste of Philly to the Midwest, Hoagies & Hops is run by a husband-and-wife team who moved to Indianapolis from Pennsylvania in 2007 – and they're so dedicated to the authentic taste of the cheesesteak that they ship meat and pickles from Philadelphia. The meat-packed hoagies are all great here, but the cheesesteaks and chicken cheesesteaks are the definite must-haves.

Other menu favorites include Cheesesteak Crinkle Cut Fries, Chilly and Cheese Dog (served with Beer Chili & Cheese made with Chilly Water Brew), shredded salads, and Pickle Sandos. Plus grab a side of their house coleslaw and a bag of Herr's chips.

Head to the best place in Indiana and America for an unforgettable sandwich at Hoagies & Hops in Indianapolis.

KEEP READING: 40 Real Indiana Towns with Quirky, Weird, and Funny Names

Outside the major cities, the Hoosier state is full of tiny little towns you've probably passed through on your way to one of those cities. Most of them are likely 100 to 150 years old, or older, and have been around far longer than the large metropolitan areas such as Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, South Bend, and Evansville. Typically, they were started by early settlers who found their way to the state and decided to make it home. Eventually, others would join them, and a community was formed. Over time, as the surrounding areas grew, most of them were folded into those areas and governed by the nearest city or county's governing body officially making them "unincorporated," meaning they did not have their own formally organized municipal government.

A scroll through Wikipedia's long list of unincorporated communities in Indiana shows several of them have names that by today's standards would be considered weird, quirky, or just downright right funny. These are my 40 favorities.
