    My wife and I are often in Indianapolis visiting family. Whenever possible we like to stay at the Omni Severin. 8th Notch Cafe is ideally situated in the Severin lobby and offers a nice, somewhat typical variety of fare you'd find in a nice hotel. The coffee and tea selection is very nice and well-made. Numerous breakfast options are available as well as a good assortment of patties and nibbles. Service is always good, friendly and efficient, I've found. There is plenty of seating available in addition to the other cozy options within the lobby of the hotel. Overall, I don't think anyone would be disappointed in a visit to 8th Notch Cafe & Market when in need of some good coffee or some breakfast. Recommended.

    We went here for breakfast since we were staying at the attached hotel. The place had a train theme; probably because it's close to Union Station. The restaurant appeared clean, and played some subdued rock music. It was basically laid out like a Starbucks or a Panera Bread location in that you order your food at a counter, then sit down and they bring it to you. Except for the drink though. The orange juice I chose to drink was a bottle of Tropicana and my wife had one of their coffees with some cream and sugar from their self-serve counter. Our food took 15-20 minutes to make and serve. My wife told me it was expensive too. It was a total of $57 including tip. My wife normally wouldn't have tipped that much since the service wasn't as much as it is at a regular restaurant, but she felt rushed and got flustered while paying. Before we left the counter, we were given a number to put on the table for when they brought us our food. It was kind of cute attached to a train with working wheels. Both my wife and I ordered the buttermilk pancakes that automatically came with two pieces of thick and crispy bacon. The syrup for the pancakes was a honey crisp apple jam maple syrup. I chose to add two eggs over easy to my order and an orange juice. The pancakes didn't come out as light and fluffy as I like them, but I did like the crispy edges. The bacon was really good and I loved the syrup. It was perfectly sweet and tasty. I was a bit disappointed by the eggs, although the flavor was okay, I had asked for over easy and they were more over medium. My wife liked the pancakes with the syrup and the bacon as well, but didn't have anything else other than her coffee. Even though the food was good, I don't plan on eating there again due to the cost of it.

    I'm honestly very impressed by how bad this place is. My friend grabbed us a quick bite from 8th Notch as soon as we arrived in the hotel after our flight. We decided on getting an Italian sandwich from the fridge and a chicken soup. The Italian Sandwich was so dry. It came with a side of chopped pepper and burrata spread that was absolutely flavorless. We couldn't even finish the sandwich. We also got a cup of chicken soup which took forever for them to serve us. Additionally, the soup was so oily. The flavor was also really weird. They had sliced boiled eggs and corn in it which was strange. After drinking it, due to the oil I felt like it was coated on my hands and mouth the whole day and I keep having my to smell that flavor for hours even after brushing my teeth and washing my hands. We ended up grabbing a sandwich from potbelly afterwards which ended up being a much more satisfying lunch. All in all, if you are staying at OMNI just opt to get food from somewhere else.

I think I waited at least 15 minutes before it was my turn to order. Once I got up to the pick up window, things went faster but I think I should have just gone in and it would have actually been faster than the drive thru. The coffee was ok. I ordered a seasonal bonfire cold brew and it was way too sweet for my liking. I also didn't really care for the taste of the cold brew unfortunately. And since the menu didn't have descriptions of what was in things, I basically guessed this would taste like a s'more and was correct. It was just too much for me and I only ended up drinking half of it.

This spot is just off the creek, with a decent parking lot and a drive through. It has a deeper warmer green than a Starbucks, and it draws a much warmer crowd too. We chatted often with the people in this shop! And we visited twice. How welcoming is that? The breakfast burrito is nothing flashy, but definitely warm gooey goodness. What sets it apart is the sauce: creamy, gently spiced, something like a seasoned mayo but not spicy. Coffee, of course, is the backbone here, and it's handled with a kind of calm precision. Our barista kindly alerted my partner and me that a warm blueberry latte would have oatmeal because of course the blueberry curdles regular milk. It was great attention to detail, and it's why we came back again and again during our week long trip. They had a special for every day! Shout out to the orange blossom latte which made me feel like a fairy amidst the city's tulips.

Same great staff, same cool space, same open kitchen where a party of one like me can grab a counter seat and watch the chefs do their thing. I've honestly always enjoyed that part of the experience. Today I had the avocado toast with feta and an egg on top, and it totally hit the spot. Earlier this week I tried one of the newer menu items -- fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, plus a sample of jalapeño cornbread and Asian slaw. Incredible comfort food. And as someone who normally isn't much of a slaw person, I was surprised by how much I loved it. They also tried to tempt me with the roast beef special, which honestly looked great, but at 10:30 in the morning I just couldn't fully commit to roast beef yet. Maybe next time. The new name is a nice tribute to the owner's mother, Arleen, but thankfully it still feels like the Milktooth so many of us have come to enjoy over the years. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't been in awhile.

Not overly sweet. Just perfect.

FYI to those who may have a physical handicap the prevents climbing steps, there are 2 sets of steps to enter the building, I didn't see any handicap accessible entry when I went there. The area to order coffee was really small and could comfortably fit about 5 people in the line inside the ordering station. There were places to stand in the foyer to wait as well, but in my opinion even though there is an open space in the foyer you could be potentially blocking someone's walking space since the ordering station is next to the entrance and the seating areas are in the entryway. I ordered their seasonal From the Past Latte w/ matcha and whole milk. They mentioned that the wait time to receive the drink was 10 minutes, which was understandable with how busy they were, but to my surprise I actually received my drink in half that time. The drink tasted great and if I was still in the area I'd go there again. I definitely noticed for such a small space, the staff were efficient and moved quickly to get everyone their correct orders.

It is an apartment building. I didn't do my research prior but learned that it used to be a psych ward. Kinda cool. I got their seasonal coconut lavender latte and a signature Sammy. The drink was great, the sandwich took way too long to prepare (we're talking 30 minutes, no joke). I was only annoyed bc I was so hungry, other than that- I didn't care about the wait bc I had nowhere to be. Overall- If I was in the neighborhood and craving a yummy coff treat, I'd return- I did really like my drink.

    Dear reader,…read more Bovaconti Coffee in Fountain Square remains one of my favourite coffee shops, and we stop there whenever we come to town. It is the sort of place that feels special the moment you walk in. A lot of people rave about the beautiful space, and quite right too. The shop has a gorgeous, old-world feel in a historic Fountain Square building, plenty of seating, and a lovely outdoor area that is very dog friendly. The staff always boast a delightful disposition that makes you want to smile and enjoy the rest of your day as well. As for the coffee, I love the iced Mayan Mocha. It is like a mocha with a kick and extra flavour depth, and it is absolutely delicious. The dark chocolate, honey, cinnamon, and cayenne give it a little warmth and complexity without losing the joy of a proper iced coffee treat. They also have some really high-end pastries to choose from. I love the lemon loaf, and some of the more complex, unique pastries make it feel a bit more elevated than the average coffee stop. Overall, it is clean, beautiful, welcoming, and always worth the return visit.
