Services & Process

The distillery side produces small-batch spirits that guests can learn about through guided tastings, with staff walking through the distillation process and tasting notes. The cocktail bar uses those house-made spirits to build original drinks, giving you a direct taste of what the distillery produces in a more accessible format. The wine tasting room rounds out the experience, offering curated wine flights for guests who prefer fermented grape over distilled spirits. Together, these three offerings make Haberdasher a flexible destination for mixed groups where not everyone shares the same beverage preference.

Service Area

Haberdasher Distillery serves Franklin and Johnson County, drawing guests from Greenwood, Bargersville, and the south Indianapolis suburbs. It's positioned as a local alternative to driving into the city for a craft beverage experience, and it's close enough to Indianapolis to work well as a destination evening out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Haberdasher Distillery offer wine tasting even though it's primarily a distillery?
Yes, the wine tasting room is a full part of the experience, not just an afterthought. This makes it a genuinely flexible option for groups where some people prefer wine and others want to explore spirits or cocktails.
What kinds of spirits does Haberdasher produce in Franklin?
As a craft distillery, they focus on small-batch production, which can include whiskey, gin, vodka, or other spirits depending on their current lineup. A guided tasting is the best way to learn what's currently in production and find your preference.
Can I visit Haberdasher Distillery for a cocktail without doing a full tasting?
The cocktail bar operates as a standalone experience, so you can absolutely stop in for a drink without committing to a formal tasting. The cocktails are built around their house spirits, so you're still getting a taste of what they make either way.
Is Haberdasher a good venue for a group outing in the Franklin area?
It's one of the better multi-purpose venues in Johnson County precisely because it offers something for everyone in a group. Whether your crew wants wine, spirits, or cocktails, no one ends up standing around feeling like they're at the wrong kind of bar.
How far is Haberdasher Distillery from Indianapolis?
Franklin is roughly 25 miles south of downtown Indianapolis, making Haberdasher an easy evening or weekend destination from the city. It's close enough to feel like a quick trip but distinct enough from Indianapolis to feel like a real outing.
Does Haberdasher host private events or rentals?
A venue combining a distillery, cocktail bar, and wine tasting room is a natural fit for private events, and it's worth contacting them at (317) 526-3679 to discuss availability. It offers a more distinctive setting than most event spaces in the Franklin area.
