    This is a very nice local coffee shop. It is located in a small strip mall, so parking is not an issue here in the mall's private lot. There is a small outdoor patio to sit and enjoy your drink. That is where people sit with their four legged friend since they are not allowed in the shop. The shop has a small table with a couple of chairs and a lounge area with a couch and plants inside. It has a living room-like feel to it. In addition to teas, cappuccino, lattes, hot and iced coffees, they have a few homemade baked goods. Be sure to check out some of their signature brews. It has a real chill coffee house type of vibe going. The shop offers catering and is available to be rented for private events after hours. The person working the shop during my visit was very nice and helpful. I got a large iced raspberry white mocha with oat milk. It took less than 5 minutes to prepare and it was very savory. I really liked it. I kept trying to get more out of my cup, even though deep down I knew that I had drank it all. This is an awesome local coffee shop with a great staff, amazing vibe and mouthwatering drinks. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area and looking to get your coffee fix.

    I miss Bee Coffee but this strip mall espresso bar and colorful renovated barn hole in the wall gives the same buzz! I dropped in for a quick pre performance perk, drooled over the autumn specialty lattes, found myself stuck with the jasmine amaretto as one I've never sipped before. Staff was polite and patient with my menu scouting. This hive has all the sweet cozy woody mood of old fashioned Democrats. I enjoyed good wifi too but wished the laptop table was closer to hand. Didn't see the back room with actual tables til I was all spread out, my large house crafted caffeine nectar showed up looking like a James Webb space swirl. A quick dive gave all the good hints for java and handmade syrups playing well together, so good, this Indianapolis cafe scene rules and here's to another fantastic must try option alongside Blue Mind, Rabble, Commissary, and Bovaconti!

    Exterior - so inviting!

    This is a delightful space! I decided to come here because their website was very LGBTQ+ friendly and I love the botanical theme. I called ahead to make sure they had lavender lattes since I couldn't find the menu online, and the person was very nice and said yes. The location used to be Bee Coffee & ROasters but they closed. Their barista at the time decided she wanted to open a coffee shop there, and did! The barista was super friendly and gave me a frequent-use punch card for rewards (yay free things-eventually). She said they make their own lavender syrup, and I can tell! It was very good. I would probably only rec this place and Mocha Nut on the south side that actually makes good lavender letters. The interior is SO cute. I wish I lived closer so I could come all the time! Lots of nice seating options. You must go here - great service, great coffee, and great adorable space to be in.

    Love this place! They have great food and coffee and are always very sweet! I used to come here to study occasionally but they close at 2-3 now so I only go in the mornings. Service is always great and quick and they also made my dog the cutest pup cup. The ambiance I will say the decor in there is different but it's very chill and a good study environment/pretty quiet.

    In a strip mall on the corner of 56th and Lafayette road. Service is quick and sweet. Straightforward coffee stop with some good flavors to choose from. The veggie croissant is delicious. Get it with the sriracha honey. Inside has good seating for waiting and some books in the back of the store. Will be back!

    The coffee and atmosphere was great! I had a latte, and it was the best one I've had in a long time. Fast service, too.

    Worst Latte I've EVER had. Grabbed iced and hot before a race. All were terrible. Threw them away after one drink.

    We got a teddy graham latte and matcha latte to go - they were tasty, and not too sweet, which we appreciated.
