INDIANAPOLIS — Champps, a sports bar and restaurant in downtown Indianapolis, is closing its doors for good.

Champps posted a sign on its door that stated the sports bar would be permanently closed as of Sunday, Jun. 28. It is no longer listed on the Champps website as well and is marked "permanently closed" on Google.

The sign states that the closure is "due to unforeseen circumstances."

Attached to the Circle Centre mall on Maryland Street, the Minnesota-originated bar was known for having TVs on nearly every wall, playing sports. It offered a made-from-scratch menu and beer.

Champps currently has five other locations in Minnesota, Michigan, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
