    Unfortunately I wasn't overly impressed with the bread assortment available here. The bread was good, but for the price it was just ok. Plus I must have been here on an off day, because contrary to the other reviews her, the service I received was anything but friendly. Since I don't live in the area, I am unlikely to travel to shop here.

    Awesome baked goods. Got a random box of pastries as well as a random bag of breads and they were all good. Definitely go for the baked goods! Unfortunately I wasn't impressed with the Blueberry Matcha Latte, it was extremely watery. Faint matcha taste and the blueberry pieces were a bit annoying while imparting no flavor. Basically a watered down matcha milk flavor.

    This place is so nice in the inside. They have some delicious pastries, cakes and drinks. I had bought something on TooGoodToGo which is what prompted me to go here to this bakery. I was excited to try something new. While picking up my order I had got a drink which was really good. The price of the drink was reasonable. The red velvet cake was delicious it was made just right. Customer service was great. The cashier answered any questions I had. If you are ever in the Broad Ripple area make sure to stop here to try this place out. You will not be disappointed.

    Great place to walk to on a Sunday morning! It's right off the Monon at 54th Street, with plenty of parking and indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of products to purchase inside as well! Service was fast and friendly! We ordered the Broad Ripple breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito. The burrito was really good but the dill sauce that comes with it was so good! I should have ordered an extra! I also got an affogato and a blueberry matcha. My husband got the coconut latte and all the drinks were tasty. Cute place with good drinks/food!

    Nice bakery/ coffee shop. Big enough to dine in and there is also outside seating. It has an inviting atmosphere and a nice staff. I had a pumpkin latte with oat milk and a blueberry Danish. They both were average.The latte could have used a little more flavor and I would have preferred a flakier crust on the danish.

    Such a cute little shop! I'm glad somebody made use of this. This is my first time going. I definitely will be back lots of different choices of baked goods and treats. I actually picked up a too good to go box from here and they were a dozen delicious assorted donuts. I also got a chocolate filled Long John, a mini lemon cake cup and a lemon poppyseed pound cake slice

    This place is a cute little stop right off the Monon, and is a very average place to grab a coffee and a treat in the morning. Not too expensive if you get a small coffee and a pastry, we got 2 iced lattes, a doughnut, and a croissant, and all of it was pretty average. Nothing amazing, but got the job done. Service at the counter was fine as well. We got here shortly after opening time on Sunday morning, and we can tell it's a cute spot, just not our cup of coffee if you get what I mean. We will likely stop in again if we are close and walking on the Monon.

    Having a wheelchair ramp is great, though this one has a bit of a lip and gravel at the entrance.

    I'd long wanted to check out BreadWorks at Broad Ripple, though with their exclusively daytime hours it has limited my options to either weekends or holidays or a random day off. Sadly, I'd just never made it until I finally decided to visit on this July 4th weekend. Taking over the spot vacated by the beloved Locally Owned Gardens, BreadWorks offers: 1) Coffee roasted by Chicago-based Sparrow Coffee (including a variety of coffee and tea options. 2) A variety of drink options from Coke products to Simplicity Juices (which is a neighbor here in basically what qualifies as SoBro). 3) A variety of donuts all reasonably priced (nearly all are $1.50 with Long Johns being the most expensive at $2). 4) Pastries 5) Breads 6) and a variety of sandwiches that are all available from open to close. I would say the in-store menu was a bit more extensive than the online menu. For example, the in-store menu included some limited alcohol options (as I recall, it was wine). BreadWorks is very inspired by the Parisian bakeries and is decorated with a similar simplicity and style. There's nothing particularly "fancy" here, but it's comfortable with mostly neutral tones. In terms of accessibility, BreadWorks has two accessible parking spots on the westside of their building. They also have an outdoor dining area that is rather large and has a nice accessible ramp to it, though it does have a bit of a lip and the sidewalk right at the entrance is a bit broken. I actually had to set my drink down, get on the ramp, then pick up my drink and make my way up to their deck. The indoor area is somewhat congested (seems to nearly always be true in Broad Ripple/SoBro). However, I was able to make my way around and get wherever I needed. Also, people in this area are just super friendly and the employees were friendly. For $7.03, I had two chocolate glazed yeast donuts (red/white/blue sprinkles given the holiday) and a 24-ounce iced coffee. All were enjoyable. I was especially fond of the coffee. BreadWorks is located right off the Monon Trail. I noticed a good number of people were detouring on/off the trail and visiting. Dogs are welcome on the deck. I really liked this visit quite a bit. The atmosphere was winning, the employees were friendly, the donuts were good (not great), the iced coffee was pretty awesome, and there was a sense of "village" here I enjoyed. I'm not quite ready to call this a 5-star experience, however, there's no question it was a solid 4-star one and there's no doubt I'll be returning as this is only a few minutes from my home.

    This is the cutest place tucked away - save the traffic and hassle of parking in downtown broad ripple for your breakfast needs and instead hit this spot up! Amazing coffee, delicious breakfast and lunch options, killer donuts. The staff was super patient as I couldn't decide what to get - they made great recommendations! Perfect meetup for locals, ample parking, plenty indoor seating with floor to ceiling windows for that indoor/outdoor feeling. Today was my first time in for coffee and I ended up picking up breakfast sandwiches as well. Their food is made fresh every morning - including their donuts! #Yum! Outdoor patio is very family and dog friendly.

    Lovely spot for a coffee and meet up or a quick lunch. We didn't stay too long but saw a lot of options that made us curious and want to come back again when we were hungry. Loved their ambience and the spaciousness of the space for chats and just hanging out. It looks like a great spot for sitting with coffee to read a book!

    My first new-business visit of the year and I loved it! First of all, I recommend visiting on a sunny day. The sun pours through the big windows and makes the space feel so airy and light. Secondly, the women at the counter were friendly and the manager was super impressive. He was working hard and sincerely thanking customers for stopping in. They had bags of coffee beans, packaged slices of homemade lemon poppy seed and chocolate pound cakes, packaged cake jars, and loaves of fresh bread arranged on shelves when you walk in. They also have a glass case of baked goods and sandwiches, as well as a back wall full of bakery items such as donuts and apple fritters. They had a pretty big menu of hot breakfast and lunch items too. I ordered the breakfast burrito and asked if I could have it without cheese and they said it was no problem - awesome! That means they make it from scratch too which I love. The burrito was soooooo good and filling. I loved the thick chunks of potato and subtle spice from the chorizo. Yum. I also got a Simplicity Juice with my meal and love that they carry another local vendor. There were several people working at the cafe tables inside and I'll definitely be back to do the same. I'd love if there was a GF bread option too in the future!

    This was a good location in SoBro near the Monon. They also have a patio area. I kept raving about the breakfast sandwich. The mix of cheese, avocado, and Mayo with the homemade croissant, egg, and bacon was soo good. I also got a carmel iced latte and it was very good. Their coffee is from Sparrow Coffee in Chicago and they have grounds for sale as well. The decor was cute with the rolling pins hanging from the ceiling. They also had a lot of natural light coming in the cafe which kept it a nice and bright first experience. I'd like to try more of their baked goods so I will be back. From what I could tell it was dog friendly too.

    Love a spot like this in walking distance from my house!! Got an assortment of doughnuts and muffins, a loaf of sourdough bread, a large coffee and a sprite. All for just under $30 so very reasonable compared to other coffee shops! Carmel apple donut was my fav. Loved the variety and all the breakfast/lunch options sounded great too. Very cozy inside, but we popped in and out and service was super friendly!

    Such a gem! One of my favorite places. This coffee shop is super quaint, with a handful of seats,…read moreperfect for getting comfy and working remotely, or just hangout with friends and sipping a latte. The vibe here is very warm, with a colorful interior and a basement area that offers additional tables and quieter spots to work. I love that they make all of their syrups in house. Right now, their seasonal matcha flavors are blueberry, strawberry, mango, and ube. I got the blueberry iced matcha and thought about it the rest of the week...SO good. Big plus was that the blueberry wasn't overpowering - it was perfectly balanced with the matcha. There's also a nice patio with picnic tables where you can sit and enjoy the lively SoBro neighborhood!

    Unfortunately the service is very hit or miss…read more The last time I went in which was in the late afternoon last Saturday, the barista was great! I ordered an iced latte with oat milk. I also ordered a lemon mint refresher, but they were out of mint so it would just be a lemonade. That was fine and I appreciated how she handled the situation and that she knew what Prufrock did and did not have in stock! She was great at communicating when I walked in that she needed a few minutes and then would be able to help me too. Another time I went with my parents on a late morning Saturday. My mom and I both loved our drinks, but we knew what to order. There were multiple people working behind the counter, but the barista taking orders was not friendly or very helpful on this particular day. My dad did not know what to order and asked what tea is refreshing and is one that the barista would recommend. The barista said that the green tea is really popular, but did not ask whether he wanted it hot or iced or give a recommendation for that. The tea came out hot on a hot day where we planning to walk the Monon and check out other local businesses. To be fair, I did ask him if he wanted me to ask for the drink to be remade or to get him a new one as I had overheard his order and also assumed it would be coming out iced. He said it was fine (but then complained on our walk). This was a bit disappointing. There have been times I have walked out after a few minutes of no acknowledgement from baristas here. It is not a cafe that I would want to sit in and work in as a lot of the space does not look workable. The last time I did come in with papers I planned to read in between appointments, I did not want to put my bag on the floor or my papers on a table because both were dirty. The book page wall has seen better days and would benefit from a revamp. I love the outdoor area though and the can tops are really cool. There is a lot of potential here, but when staff appears like they do not want to be there it makes customers not want to be there either. I would also urge the owners to be more receptive to criticism. The TikTok videos about Prufrock did not influence my review, but it did encourage me to leave my own review based on my own experiences.

It is a bit challenging to find parking but there are a few spots in front. I parked down the street and walked which is always an option. There are a few stairs to get in but also a ramp, and the set up has a nice aisle like space for the line and plenty of tables and chairs. It can be quite loud so keep that in mind if you want a quieter reflection time, and maybe take it to go or sit outside. They have various food items but I absolutely LOVE their peanut butter energy balls! In fact that is why I came to this location as this is where the magic happens. They make them here and send them to other Tinker locations! They are the perfect blend of savory and a tad sweet and go super well with their coffee and/or London Fog tea. Yum! I will freely admit to buying all they had on hand, and now can enjoy them at home. Yay! It is a very busy spot so not the friendliest of staff, but assumed they were already hassled from the morning. It was a great spot to meet a friend and enjoy the patio and some tea/coffee.

I think the only thing that was missing was a background music to create more of an atmosphere.
