    Coconut curry soup
    Lauren F.

    This is a nice little spot in downtown Indianapolis. It's at the bottom of a business building and next to another café on the other side of the lobby. The menu had quite the variety. You can order things from the lunch or breakfast, which is all included on the same menu. I enjoyed the coconut curry chicken soup. The soup had a good taste, but I think it needed a little more coconut or thickness to make it more enjoyable. NICOLE was very attentive and kind. She ensure that we got our food in a timely manner and were satisfied with what we ordered.

    This place was extremely busy on a Saturday morning. Parking is metered, but I was able to find a spot on Washington Street without too much trouble. I liked the complimentary coffee bar while waiting for a table. Since I came with a couple of friends and didn't have reservations, we ended up waiting somewhere between 30 minutes to an hour before being seated. One of the biggest drawbacks was the restroom situation. There are only two gender neutral restrooms, and the wait was incredibly long. I waited close to 30 minutes just to use the restroom. It seemed like only one restroom may have been operational because I only noticed people coming out of one. For a business this large and as busy as it gets, I don't feel that's enough restroom accommodation. The first available table was outside, so we decided to take it. Unfortunately, it wasn't the best experience. There was nearby construction, making it very loud and difficult to carry on conversations amongst our table. It was also a windy and chilly day, and I definitely underestimated the weather. I should have brought a coat! We weren't in the sun so it was too chilly. The strong wind constantly blew napkins and other items around the table, which became frustrating. During cooler days, outdoor heaters would make the patio much more comfortable. Even though I was uncomfortable, our server was friendly and attentive to us. I ordered the Morning Edition breakfast, and it was excellent. I liked the variety of items included, everything tasted good, and the portion size was just right for me. I finished every bite and left satisfied. I really enjoyed the potatoes and cinnamon toast. I enjoyed my food and service was good, but if you're planning to visit on a Saturday morning, I would strongly recommend making reservations if possible. It could save you a long wait and potentially get you a better seating option.

    Café Patachou is my go-to when I'm craving breakfast in the middle of the day. Any variation of avocado toast is my go-to, and they get it right every time! I've never been disappointed.

    Croissant French toast and ricotta toast and chilaquiles

    What a gem of a place. Absolutely had one of the best breakfasts on the road. Can't wait to come back. Everything was perfect, food was delicious, service was outstanding, can't recommend enough!!

    This is very solid modern breakfast spot. Food was pretty good but relatively expensive for the portions. The coffee bar was very good. Food: I was very pleased with the quality of the food but you might be disappointed with the portions if you like a hefty breakfast. The coffee bar was very high quality featuring locally roasted coffee. Service: The staff was prompt and food service was fast. The waiter also gave us the check without us having to ask but it was a bit early about half way through the meal. We didn't mind because they reassured us to take our time, but some might think it rude. Atmosphere: The interior was clean and modern fitting the downtown business atmosphere. It's just not my favorite atmosphere for breakfast.

    This Ricotta stumbled egg and sourdough toast was absolutely amazing. The service was very good and the wait wasn't long at all. I absolutely recommend this dish and this restaurant! Love the Ambience

    croissant french toast
    Priscilla C.

    first time having a croissant french toast and it was delicious but pretty sweet. crunchy on the outside w/ pecans and soft on the inside. not sure if it's a seasonal thing but it made me really happy that the side of fruits did not have any melons!! for being the same cost as most of their omelettes, i wish it came w/ one more side or be priced at $1-2 less. cute spot in indy close the convention center and great service. would come back again next time i'm in town!

    Ordered avocado toast. Received this sad looking piece of bread with like 1/4 of an avocado lightly spread on top. Boring interior. Slow for food to come out. Would not recommend.

    I was only in town for a Colts game, so we stopped in for brunch, and it was so delicious. I loved the unique touch they put on the food, and the staff was amazing. The space was pretty crowded with the farm-style table seating, but overall it was a great experience.

    The food was amazing! Me and my daughters enjoyed brunch there for their birthdays. Our server was super nice and they got us in really quick. We were looking for a brunch type feel and that is exactly what we got. The place was pretty packed, but we were able to get a window seat because outside was pretty full! I had the best tomato soup I've ever had!

    The Vegan Crepe (which is actually a savory chickpea-based crepe, not a sweet one) was fantastic! The crepe itself was tender and flavorful--definitely not your average boring vegan egg substitute. It was stuffed with tasty ingredients like black beans, vegan cheese, arugula, and avocado. The jalapeño pesto and salsa served alongside it added a great, fresh kick without being overly spicy. It was filling, wholesome, and felt like a truly thoughtful dish, not just an afterthought. The service was prompt and friendly, and the location across from the State Capitol is very convenient. If you're looking for a delicious and healthy place start to your day in Indy, this is a great spot.

    went to this place and now I feel like I have to go everyday, they have meals from breakfast to dinner, amazing coffee did i mention the bottomless coffee?

    Food is always so fresh!! It's such a good spot for breakfast and brunch. Most locations do get busy on lunch and weekends so plan ahead. The aesthetic is bright and modern.

    Parking is on the street in front of the cafe and in a lot on the side. I parked on the side and there were plenty of spaces.

    Food is absolutely great!; and don't forget the desserts, wow!. You better be hungry when you goread more

    I'm not a deli kind of guy…read more But, there's just something about Shapiro's that makes me smile. I'm a lifelong hoosier, and I've always had times when I simply needed to go to Shapiro's. I've shared,quite often, of my deep appreciation for the Shapiro's response when I had accessibility concerns about their Fashion Mall location. They did a remarkably beautiful job of responding well, adapting, and yet also honoring their own business needs. The end result became a more accessible layout that was still customer friendly for everyone. I will always appreciate that response and should their praises. But, there's something special about this location. It's the look. It's the feel. It's the vibe. It's just everything. A little bit of Shapiro's history - you can trace the Shapiro family back to 1795 Ukraine. Louis and Rebecca Shapiro landed stateside in 1905; within a couple years opening a small grocery/deli. In 1925, they leaned into their cultural and faith roots after the election of Ed Jackson as governor (Jackson was a well-known Klan member). They added the word "kosher" to their building and a Star of David. (As someone who's traveled over 7,000 miles by wheelchair, I love a good act of subtle rebellion). They more and more leaned into their cafe routes, and in 1984 added a second location on the northwestside. I probably frequented this location the most since I went to Pike High School. As we all know, that location eventually closed. Fashion Mall lasted about five years. There was a Carmel spot, too. But, for me, it always comes down to this location. It's warm. It's friendly. The food is a premium deli experience. I love the meatloaf (like seriously). They have breakfast, they have a ton of baked good options (cakes, cookies, others), soups, salads, hot deli, cold deli, sandwiches, entrees, and a whole lot more. I love the baked goods. I love the fried chicken. Is it a bit pricey? Yep. You also get enough for at least a couple meals (if you can truly hold out that long). Accessibility is solid here. I've already talked about their attention to that kind of detail. It's real AND it's sincere. Strangely enough, I've never had the Reuben here. It's one of their acclaimed sandwiches, but there's always something else I want more. While you can spend a fair amount here, you can also eat here pretty modestly. Shapiro's, at least for me, is one of those places that defines Indy. I'd likely weep if they ever left our city. Good food. Great family. Wonderful location. Fair pricing. Accessible. Quite honestly, it's just about everything I want a restaurant to be.

I thought about…read moregetting a beer so our server gave me a sample of the Upland Brewing's Petal to the kettle sour, it was good but I decided to go with a cocktail instead. I went with a Malibu and ginger ale, and it was served in this cute glass, I loved it! We were all so hungry, so we started out with a large order of fries, and they are a standout. They disappeared fast, came served on paper, and were crispy, hot, and delicious. We ordered the 2 10-piece wings (the biggest order available), including one batch cooked extra crispy. The wings were good, and I especially enjoyed the Fat Dan's hot BBQ sauce over the regular BBQ. I really liked the extra crispy wings. My boys also wanted burgers. One ordered the Wake N Bake Burger and the other got the Fat Dan's Burger. Both looked tasty, and neither of them complained. The ambiance strikes a nice balance between sports bar and family friendly restaurant. There is seating both inside and outside, and when the weather is nice, they open the large doors to create an open-air feel. That's where we sat, and I enjoyed it. Service was quick and efficient, which was much appreciated since my family arrived hungry. This is a solid spot for burgers, wings, and fries.

It's very cool on the inside with vintage and Indiana-themed decor, tin ceilings, and, of course, a potbelly stove. The staff were friendly. But brother and I were very confused about the ordering process. There wasn't a lot of directional signage showing where to start and each step of the process. I watched a few other customers go through and they didn't seem like they had a problem so maybe it was just us. Next time I would probably just order online and pick it up so I could avoid the in-person ordering process altogether. I had the turkey sandwich and it was pretty good. I would say definitely a step up from your typical sub sandwich chain in terms of flavor and toppings options. I tried the chili mac as well. The chili is definitely à la Wendy's but I enjoyed it. The mac and cheese was good as well. I'd probably get either on its own but not together again. I also tried the Potbelly/Zapp's collab chips, the Hot Pepper flavor. They were good but are definitely not for everyone. When I visited, most of their fountain soda options were out of order so I settled on a no sugar added Pineapple Passionfruit juice/soda which was actually pretty good. We'll definitely be back - especially to try out their milkshakes!
