    Illumine Coffee sits off Westfield Blvd in a small complex that is close to North Central High School. In Nora, it features your standard coffee menu, but I would have to say that the latte was one of the better ones. It was $5, and I got mine with 2% milk. There's an up charge of $1 for alternative milk. Always a gripe of mine because the people who cannot have dairy should not get up charged essentially 15-20%. I think though most coffee shops do, but it's not very "illuminating" in my opinion. The vibe is definitely one that encourages either deep conversation or Lofi study vibes. Dim lighting, pretty good coffee, and a location that kinda doesn't make sense but attracts your younger demographic.

    Met up for bookclub and we were all surprised how busy it was on a weekend around 3pm! Surprisingly spacious for a coffee shop, so it's great for meeting up with others and doing business if necessary. I had a cookie and tea, nothing wrong with either but after getting halfway through my tea, I realized I should have asked for my tea to be poured in a to go cup..

    This shop, especially the downtown shop, is super chill. I love the baristas energy. They have the Super good nugget ice! Iykyk! Very quick and accommodating staff. The ambiance is very quaint and quiet. Which makes it perfect to pick up orders! I love their iced matchas.

    Such an awesome neighborhood coffee shop. Super cute and laid back vibes. This place does fill up quickly, so just keep that in mind when you're rolling in around 10am to snag a table (lol!). My go to lately has been a chai tea latte with lavender and almond milk. However, since I am on a matcha tour I had to check theirs out. I went with a blackberry matcha with almond milk and it was amazing. They also have great breakfast items and my favorite is the toasted bacon & egg sandwich. Highly recommend! +Great parking

    My husband and I stopped by Illumine Coffee this morning and enjoyed a blackberry brown sugar iced latte and chai iced latte--they were delicious! I had planned to order just the blackberry iced latte, but shoutout to the staff for the fantastic recommendation as the blackberry brown sugar is supposedly a number 1 seller! The service was quick, kind, and right on point. It's clearly a local favorite, with plenty of people gathered to chat, study, or simply enjoy their drinks and treats. I also love the shop's motto, "Be the Light"--it perfectly matches the warm and uplifting atmosphere. Such a cute spot all around!

    Visited this coffee shop for the first time today and had a good experience. Service was friendly and attentive, the space was clean and fairly spacious with a decent amount of seating. My latte and muffin were good. My husband said the drip coffee was good but the breakfast sandwich was just ok.

    This would be a great place to come work. Plenty of spaces to sit and work. Staff was incredibly friendly! I tried a couple different drinks and both were delicious.

    Perfectly roasted fresh hot coffee, friendly barista and modern clean environment!

    Absolutely love this coffee shop. It's clean and the coffee is not only fresh brewed, but it's roasted and served fresh. High reccomend!

    Had my first free morning after being a first time mom- and all I wanted was a latte! Decided to stop by here and so glad I did! Had a delicious speciality latte and their breakfast sandwich. Currently have mom brain so can't remember what the latte was called- but it was delicious!! Their sausage egg sandwich was also delicious. Ton of seating- and a popular spot! I stopped in around 10:30am on a Friday and the majority of the tables were taken. If I'm ever in the area I'll be sure to stop in! Staff was very friendly,

    Carmel Cookie Butter Latte. Yummm

    I've been on the hunt for the coziest coffeehouse in Indy, Illumine did not disappoint. I stopped here on a Saturday afternoon to get some work done & really enjoyed it. It was a very chill atmosphere & it seemed like a lot of other people were there to work & some friends gathered to catch up. I had the Carmel Cookie Butter latte with oatmilk & whoa, 10/10! I also had the croissant cinnamon roll & it was pretty good too and not too sweet. The baristas were friendly, it seemed like they had pretty good rapport with some guests who appeared to be regulars.

    This has quickly become one of my favorite coffee shops! Great selection of drinks and the food is great as well. Staff is always friendly and they're quick if you're in a rush. Lots of seating options and I never have trouble finding a place to sit even though it's ALWAYS busy when I'm there. Very relaxed feel and I especially love all the live plants at the entrance. Now I want coffee from Illumine!

    Blackberry brown sugar

    Stopped by early on a weekday, and it seemed like a busy place, with a lot of people hanging out, though I only had one person in front of me in line. Really seems more like a sit and sip place rather than grab and go, and the barista takes their time making a good cup, rather than rushing you out. For the coffee itself, I had the blackberry brown sugar (an underrated flavor) latte, and I swear the cup had a hole in it with how quickly I drink it. Very tasty. And the shop itself seemed welcoming - great option for a local shop

    Do they sell the beans/grounds or is this just prepared coffee spot? Looking to find some great coffee to brew at home.

    They do sell their beans/grounds. The Nora location is also a roastery.

I love that they have…read moretaken an old building and re-purposed it but also calling it The Firehouse as a nod to its history. 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 would for sure go back and even bring a friend! In fact I've already mentioned it to several people as a potential meet up spot! Definitely something to enjoy!

As good as the coffee and the ambiance of ICR were, the service provided by Elise and Katherine was the real star of the show. The decor is great, the vibe is chill, and the service is fantastic. I've yet to meet someone who tries the coffee at ICR and comes away unimpressed. Next time you are in Carmel, and you want a spot with great coffee, great service, and a quiet yet classy look, Indy Coffee Roasters is the place to be, and if you want to skip the crowds, this location is great!
