One vendor we discovered as soon as we entered the venue was Circle City Sweets. An absolutely delicious looking array of gourmet pastries filled the classic curved glass display case.  What an awesome selection of culinary pastry excellence ready for your enjoyment.

Pastry Chef and Owner Cindy Hawkins has a very nice bakery at the AMP facility serving delicious scones and other tasty creations. We each picked out a special treat as well as a loaf of sourdough bread. When at the AMP be sure to get a treat to enjoy there or to take home. Click here for the bakery’s website.

A most exotic offering: Irish Sea Moss from Jamaica showcases diversity.

Even though it is located within the 16 TECH complex, AMP stands on its own as a local hotspot for diversity, events and culture in Indianapolis. Featuring food stalls, an open-air bar, communal seating and ample community gathering and event space, it can host events with up to 1100 persons.

Deli goods galore, note shipping container

There are 20+ vendors scattered around the food service shipping containers. There is also varied seating, including outdoor seating area, and the inside open seating wine bar. Food types cover a wide range of offerings, including some exotic items. We had eaten before we went, but plan to return sometime for a full meal. The comfortable seating includes tables large enough to hold your meal and your laptop. Our son commented that the overall ambiance reminded him of a university environment.
