Clutch Kitchen celebrates grand reopening at Sun King Brewery Fishers with new kitchen & expanded menu

Four-day celebration highlights Chef Kelsey Murphy’s culinary vision & Fishers’ growing food scene

The City of Fishers, in partnership with Sun King Brewery Fishers and celebrity chef Kelsey Murphy, is celebrating the grand reopening of Clutch Kitchen with four days of special events Nov. 12 to 15.

The celebration marks the completion of kitchen renovations and the debut of an expanded menu, giving guests more ways to enjoy Chef Murphy’s culinary creations at Sun King Fishers.

Murphy, a longtime Fishers resident and winner of Season 11 of MasterChef, has created custom creations for her Fishers location, along with her signature dishes from her original location at Lucas Oil Stadium like Clutch Wings, the Clutch Cuban, and famous smash burgers. This new menu expands options such as Artisan Thin-Crust Pizzas, an all-new Pastrami Reuben, Sticky Pork Belly Bao Buns, Burrata Boards, Garlic Parmesan Mozzarella Sticks, and more.

The grand reopening represents another milestone in Fishers’ ongoing efforts to foster culinary entrepreneurship and create unique dining experiences in Fishers District. Clutch Kitchen operates in the former Fishers Test Kitchen space at Sun King Fishers, which has been reimagined as a space for the hometown chef to test and expand her culinary offerings. The space was first introduced in 2020 as a restaurant accelerator designed to help emerging culinary concepts develop and grow in Fishers.

Murphy was among the entrepreneurs who launched a concept through the Fishers Test Kitchen, introducing her former Inspo restaurant in 2022, before expanding to Lucas Oil Stadium and later returning to Fishers District with the Clutch Kitchen concept.

“This new era of Clutch Kitchen is a testament to what happens when we invest in our community and our entrepreneurs,” Mayor Scott Fadness said. “Chef Kelsey’s journey from MasterChef to launching her culinary brand and returning home to Fishers to open Clutch Kitchen is exactly the kind of success we envisioned when we launched the Test Kitchen over six years ago.”

With destinations including Sun King Brewery Fishers, Fishers Event Center, and a growing collection of restaurants, retail and entertainment offerings, Fishers District has become a hub for dining, sports, and entertainment experiences. Clutch Kitchen’s continued growth adds to the district’s mix of locally driven concepts and reinforces Fishers’ commitment to creating opportunities for entrepreneurs.

“This grand reopening feels like coming home, and watching this kitchen transform is a dream come true,” Chef Kelsey Murphy said. “We’ve been counting down the days to serve our new menu and I can’t wait to see families sharing pizzas, enjoying a cookie skillet, and gathering before a game at the Fishers Event Center. Fishers has supported me from the beginning and I’m excited to bring something new to the community that helped me get my start.”
