Explore Pawnee

A Pawnee institution since 1976 and home of the famous four-horse-power waffle. Breakfast served all day, as the founders intended. Frequently voted Pawnee's best restaurant by people with excellent judgment.

Home to 130 species, a beloved penguin habitat with a notable civic history, and Indiana's only zoo-based raccoon exhibit, which the raccoons enter and exit freely and which is therefore more of a suggestion.

A self-guided gallery of Pawnee's historic municipal murals, presented with interpretive context. A challenging part of our history, displayed so that we may learn from it. Docent tours weekdays at noon.

See how Indiana's favorite candy empire makes Nutriyum bars, and receive a complimentary sample bag at the exit (samples exceed the daily recommended sugar intake; see posted disclosure per Ordinance 44-2009).

Pawnee's premier nightclub and the exclusive home of Snake Juice. The city's official visitor guide describes the experience as 'memorable, in the sense that portions of it may be missing.' 21 and over.

Upscale-casual dining downtown with an oaky afterbirth — a printing error the owner has elected to keep. Reservations recommended; the word 'bistro' is legally binding.

Dinosaur-themed family restaurant. The ribs are enormous, the animatronic T. rex is louder than advertised, and the gift shop is inevitable.

Operated by the Wamapoke Nation, the cultural center presents exhibitions on Wamapoke history and contemporary life, alongside gaming and event facilities. Visitors are welcome year-round.
