South Bend, Indiana · A Notre Dame Tradition
We Are Part
of the Tradition
Go Irish.
Home of the iconic Rudy filming location — 16 beers on tap, handmade pizza, and a piece of movie history under a 126-year-old tin ceiling.

Hollywood Came to LaSalle Ave.
You have seen this baron the big screen.
Shortly after Ross Mittiga exposed the original 1898 stamped tin ceiling, Tri-Star Pictures came knocking. They were filming a movie about a Notre Dame walk-on who dreamed of playing for the Irish — Rudy.
The crew spent a week remodeling and a week filming. In their wake they left Hollywood-painted murals, the Four Horsemen canvas, the neon sign, and the placards that still hang today.
Under One Roof
Cold beer, great pizza, and a legend.
16 Beers on Tap
Domestics, imports, and a rotating wall of local & regional craft. Plus a full bar — there is always a cold pour waiting under the tin ceiling.
Handmade Pizza
Thin crust made fresh daily with homemade sausage and everything else worth putting on a pie. Ten-, fourteen-, and eighteen-inch. Carry-out until close.
The Rudy Bar
Hollywood-painted murals, the original neon sign, and memorabilia the Tri-Star crew left behind. You have seen this room on the big screen.
The Corner of LaSalle & Notre Dame
“A local, smoky, blue-collar place turned South Bend landmark — the same brick, the same tin ceiling, the same tradition.”
Come Grab a Cold One
Open late, six nights a week.
Catching the game, celebrating a win, or just here for the pizza and a cold beer — the door at 441 East LaSalle is open.
