Tinker Street executive chef Tyler Shortt leaving after 10 years

One of Indianapolis' most acclaimed restaurants is set for a shakeup as longtime Tinker Street executive chef Tyler Shortt prepares to exit the Near Northside fine dining spot at the end of this week. Shortt, who joined the Tinker Street staff in 2016 as a line cook under then-executive chef Braedon Kellner, took over the executive chef role shortly before the pandemic. During his tenure, Tinker Street was named one of USA TODAY's Restaurants of the Year in 2024.

Just off the town square sits an old house that has become a weekday ritual for breakfast lovers, lunch crowds, and anyone who believes dessert deserves its own planning session.
