The food is good / a 3 on a scale of 5. The service is so-so. The cleanliness is subpar. Pricy and the additional costs is annoying. I normally have the broken yolk sandwiches which are generally good, but pricy for a couple eggs. That being said, I am willing to pay, but charging $1.95 additional for a 2 oz portion cup of pesto sauce is prohibitive. Service is really "dry" and waiters have no empowerment to work with diners - at least that is my perception. Serving water or lemonade in a dirty glass is not cool and should normally reflect a discount on the bill, but never does. Servers appears to have too many tables and can't really serve any one table well. We've been here at least 6 times, but will not return since this has been a generous amount of time given to see improvements. Menu requests that you complain to them rather than posting, but that is not cool either and in our one experience doing so, nothing to was done. read more

Excellent food for a rainy day. My tomato artichoke soup was great. The portions size were huge for all things ordered. read more

Cafe Patachou - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Carmel, Indiana

If the food itself didn't earn the five stars, the staff absolutely did! This was one of my first spots my wife and I went to when we moved to Carmel, and boy did they make us feel welcome! Our server went to the staff and had them write down other local spots for us to try and also gave us his own personal suggestions! The food itself was fantastic! The croissant was so flakey and rich and perfect, every piece of the meal was delicious. The coffee situation is a little strange but it lets you stretch your legs so I'm all for it! 5 star staff makes this a place that I can't wait to return to! read more

Disclaimer: I love all of the Patachou restaurants, and find something I like about all of them. This is one of my favorite spots for breakfast or lunch and I can't get enough of the Tomato Artichoke soup. You won't be disappointed. read more

Our first time to Patachou and our last. Ordered the Piggy Omelet it arrived cold with the cheese still stringy and not melted. Our server was uninterested in serving that day. Finally had to wave down another server to get jam for the toast and my ice tea. This after our server passed by us several times without stopping to ask how everything is. Even tried to get his attention and he never looked our way. By then everything else was cold. There are many other good breakfast/brunch places in this area of town. Try them first. My wife enjoyed her French toast. read more

Consistently on point and they have the best server, Pascal! My favorite is the Cuban Breakfast... oh and the French Toast Croissants, too good!!! The go to brunch spot when we have guests in town. read more

Avocado Toast with baby greens and a fried egg is the best ever...tomato and artichoke, wonderful. My favorite go-to breakfast/brunch.

I LOVE this place. The food is always excellent, great choices including vegan/gf options. Coffee selection is wonderful as well. Service is always nice and warm. I like they don't play their music loud. It's clean, decor is chic, and overall it is always above par. read more

I started my new job in the Clay Terrace area, and had heard Patachou Cafe was a bit pricey, but good. I dropped in for a plain coffee and a juice from the refrigerator case. My Credit card was charged over $10. That was my first and last visit. read more

The quality of food is always great here, however, our party was not asked, but told, that we must leave our table due to a "paid reservation" and that we had 5 minutes to do so. Our small party of 3 received our drinks and food very quickly, which was awesome at the time, but now it seems we were rushed to get in and out. We were not asked if we needed anything else; just presented with the checks. If they had planned to use our table for this super special reservation, why seat us there to begin with? They could of had us wait and be seated in an unreserved spot as they had done with other guests. Sad to see another's dining experience is more important than your own. Also, I wasn't aware that this business is happy to accept money for reservations. Food for thought. read more

There is no better way to describe this place other than heaven on earth. I love all restaurants under the Patachou brand, but this particular location is just amazing. High quality food, wonderful service every time. I suggest the omelette with cinnamon sugar toast or the granola with almond milk! read more

Came in and told them we had a group of 5, we were told it would be a 35 minute wait...ended up being an hour. Sat down and had a rude waitress, once we got our food one of our orders was not correct, so when we got their attention and got a new omelette...it was wrong yet again. We had plenty of empty tables around us and the wait line was still very long, could've been prevented. We get it was New Years Day but they knew this was going to occur and should've expected this many people to come in. read more

Always good food!! Be prepared to wait, but worth it. At least they offer great coffee while you wait. We have several Patachou's by us but we choose go to Broad Ripple location to see our favorite Server, Azra. The whole staff there is delightful. read more

This is the most impressive restaurant ever, because they are consistently great at everything. The servers are incredible, the restaurant is beautiful, and the food is great. Every time. It is the kind of place where you can go over and over and just keep getting different things because everything on the menu is delicious, high-quality, and healthy (well, most of it :)). I like to get either the Cuban (rice and beans with cilantro and an egg) or the Broken Yolk Sandwich (2 eggs, I ask them to be cooked hard), on bread with greens. Even something simple like their oatmeal is good. Their fruit is beautiful and edible (not mushed up). The jam is homemade. There are many good drink options. There is inside and outside dining, or stools at the bar. It is very popular and often has a wait. The only tiny thing I'd change is to offer thinner bread (two slices is a lot of 1" thick bread). Everyone I know loves Patachou, and although you mostly see women in there, the guys like it just as well. read more

The food here is fresh and delicious. They offer many great options for breakfast and lunch. This location is much larger than the previous location. But that brings a few drawbacks. The parking lot is too small for this cafe. The ceilings are high and with the concrete floors the noise level takes away from the cozy environment they had at the old location. It would help if they would turn off the 80s music. read more

One of my all time favorite places. The staff are friendly and efficient. The food is wholesome and innovative. I have been here dozens of times and have never been disappointed. My favorites are the Cuban breakfast, tomato soup, cinnamon toast and French fries with Dijon. read more

We just moved to Indianapolis and tried Patachou. We had gone before and it was packed so we decided to try again. It was worth it! Service was great, food quality was fantastic, ambiance was comfortable and trendy. Bloody Mary was good but a little pricy. Coffee is strong and delicious. It also was a little pricey if you just get a cup. But it is all you can drink, self serve. We would definitely go again and bring out of town guests! read more

We ate at Patachou Clay Terrace on a Saturday late morning. We both ordered the Cuban Breakfast. We asked that they scramble our eggs. Our server suggested that we add chorizo. Pascal made it a five-star breakfast. read more

The Vegan Curry Carrot -Soup Special Today- was very good. It was served with a small dollop of jalapeño pesto which added a little "heat" although the temperature of the soup itself could have been hot rather than lukewarm. read more

the. best. brunch. ever. This local eatery is a hipster's paradise. This location has their signature frites - thin potatoes fried in duck fat and served with a tangy dipping sauce. A must try. Their cinnamon toast is the best I've ever tried, and their make-your-own-omelet is the best way to customize your favorite breakfast entree. Truthfully, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. We go to this location any time we're in the area. read more

Cafe Patachou - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Carmel, Indiana

Had a party of 6 during brunch on a Sunday. They seated us within 15 minutes. Coffee is very good, especially the house blend. We had very quick and good service. read more

I like having the choice of breakfast or lunch. They have outdoor seating. It is in Clay Terrace mall, convenient when shopping. I enjoyed my soup and sandwich and tea. read more

Love everything about this place! Excellent atmosphere, food, service, and well priced. Very very happy repeat customer!

Somewhat of a wait, but our service was very good. Mike, the GM, is very kind. Nice place to take someone special.

Patachou has been a favorite of mine for years. The champagne cocktails are fantastic, as are the omelets. As another reviewer said, the cinnamon toast is everything. They offer many unique food pairings, and I've never had anything that I've been disappointed in. The service is also great, and the waitstaff is incredibly kind and accommodating. If you plan to go during prime hours on the weekend, be prepared to wait 20 minutes, but I don't think that is something worthy of complaining about. I mean, come on, it's a restaurant with limited space, during peak hours. Of course there will be a wait, use your brain, and stop complaining about very first world problems. read more

I've been dining here for 7 years and the quality continues to slip. I spent $96 after tip on breakfast for three this morning and my egg whites were runny and the overpriced mimosas were mostly orange juice. Every time I go here now, it really just feels like an overpriced bowl of arugula at the end of the day. Save your money and go grab brunch somewhere else. There are plenty of more affordable and more unique delicious options available in Carmel. read more

Got to visit Patachou for breakfast on my birthday. It was fantastic! I ordered the Cuban breakfast, rice, beans and cheese with an over easy egg and a side of jalapeño pesto sauce. It was beyond delicious. The coffee was also quite good. My boyfriend ordered the all-meat omelet. It was perfectly cooked with no browned marks on the egg. We will DEFINITELY be returning. Also brought my 10month old with us and she had a blast eating blueberry muffin and vanilla yogurt with bananas. read more

Service actually quite outstanding. Server courteous, engaged and attentive. Coffee good, and you can take a to-go, gratis. Menu a little all over the place. My "broken yolk" with smoked salmon really didn't need the thick, pedestrian bread, and for $16.50, I'd have preferred more salmon, but I ordered it and c'est la vie. It comes with white cheddar, but smoked salmon+cheddar= blech to me. The BF's french toast was a sugar bomb, but that's kind of his fault . . . Frites are good.. .cooked properly, and the large order is enough for the entire Partridge Family and Ruben . . .hehe. A horseradishy aoili comes with. Conveniently located and plenty of things to choose from and attention to food sensitivities and allergies is appreciated, not exactly by me, but by others in my party. read more

Patachou is one of my favorite brunch spots! They have a wonderful menu filled with unique options. I have wheat/dairy allergies, and they are GREAT when it comes to accommodating. I always receive wonderful service, and I love sitting outside on their patio in the summer. Thanks, Patachou! read more

Everything that I have ever gotten there was delicious. However, my daughter and I went shopping and stopped in for brunch and I was very disappointed in the options for children. I ordered her the PB & J and she wouldn't touch it. It had strawberry jelly and organic freshly made peanut butter. While I appreciate what they are doing, I wish they would have put a description of it on the menu, I would have ordered her something else. read more

Very busy day lost Star only due to excessive wait with a toddler. Serve yourself endless coffee (also Togo cups when you're on your way out. Perfectly cooked mushroom spinach feta omelet. Cinnamon toast is Not cinnamon swirl bread it is a white bakery style bread almost a English muffin style toasted,buttered and heavily coated with cinnamon sugar #well yummm. Table mates also had colorful fresh fruit cups and famous fries. Coffee refills are serve yourself, Very helpful polite servers. Restrooms clear to back slightly pokey service but they were slammed. Pricey compared to mom and pops $50 for 3 read more

Favorite Cafe in Carmel. The food is always delicious and fresh. Love the complimentary coffee bar. Staff is always friendly and professional. The cafe is modern but has a very relaxed setting. Seriously one of my favorite places. Love the Sweet ruby special and the omelettes, but all the food is great! read more

not a good place as a service. waited for 45 when they told us 20min. 30min after we placed the order and food was cold. I will never come back to this place read more

This review will be based on a hostess that works there. I will make another review about the food & our server. When my husband & I arrived. I saw that it was crowded. I was told that it will be a 35 minute wait. We were okay with that so I gave the hostess Abigail our name. She asked for our number & I looked around in the lobby to find us a seat to sit for the wait. After the first 20 minutes, we saw at least four groups exit the restaurant. I told myself, we should be seated soon because three people ahead of us we're already seated. Another 25 minuets passed & people that came in after us, were being seated. My husband then went to go ask Abigail why weren't we called yet? She asked for the information & stated our information wasn't on the list. She then said, we will be seated next. Now, my husband and I are the ONLY African American in the restaurant. My first thought was, "she could possibly be racist because she took my information down and we were sitting right in front of her. So she had to see us wait there for 45 minutes." Either she's racist or she doesn't give a damn about asking people who's been waiting a while, did you give us your name." I immediately changed my thought process. I didn't want the media & the environment to force me to feel like we were being mistreated. That changed once I saw her do it to a bi-racial couple. Our table was straight across from the hostess stand. My husband & I are people watchers. He must be able to see the door wherever we go. He likes to pay attention to our environment. We saw this biracial couple come in & give Abigail their information. They then asked for coffee & stood straight across from us. 20 minutes after we got our food, I noticed they were still standing there. I saw 2 tables opened for people to be seated. 25 minutes passed and a table behind us had opened. Abigail had seated 4 other groups that came after them already. We were overhearing the couple talk & become angry. But they never said anything. We then saw Abigail seat a couple that only waited 10 minutes, be seated right behind us. One hour went passed. The lobby is pretty much emptied & they spotted a table open. The husband approached Abigail & asked why haven't they been seated yet. At this point, it's only 2 other groups waiting in the lobby. They were standing right in front of her for an hour & not once did she think to ask them anything. I couldn't hear her response. During their wait, Abigail & I locked eyes many times and I would immediately look at to the couple that was waiting. Hoping she would care to greet them again, but she didn't. She actually smiled at the couple 4 times during their wait. 5 minutes after the husband approached her. They were finally seated.l at the table that we all saw opened. Being that this happened twice in one day, confirmed my first thoughts about Abigail. It's unfortunate that one employee can set your tone about the restaurant. It's not the establishment fault that they hired a racist individual. How would they know during a interview? I doubt we go to this location again. We personally don't have time to be mistreated by anyone. I will say, the food was AMAZING and our server Pasquale was AWESOME! He made our experience worth waiting. He made great suggestions for vegan options. He went out his way to ask his vegan co-worker his favorite choices. Based on the food & our server, we give the restaurant a 5 star. I wanted to base this review on the hostess. I will make a second review about Pasquale & the food next. Hopefully the establishment see's this review & speak with Abigail to avoid this happening to someone else. read more

I go here every Sunday, I like the food, but they have lost my order the last 2 times, each time not even a slight discount or a free cup of coffee for making me wait an additional 45 minutes. read more

Love the Chicken Salad Patachou, but for $12.95, one should get a regular size muffin. Muffin is much smaller than the ones they sell individually at counter. read more

Have eaten at three of these restaurants. This one has the nicer servers. Overall the omelet yes I had were overpriced and just ok. The chicken salad is outstanding. Get the bread toasted, you will not be disappointed. Serve urself coffee is gimmicky and a bit of a hassle. If I'm paying this much I want to be served. That saying...ill be back to this one for the chix salad. read more

good food, longggg wait. said it would be 35 min and it was an hour!! overpriced as well
