Pros: -great location, less than a mile from UTSA; plenty of parking -nice space to study, cool artwork; overall it's very student friendly and chill -the menu is simple and not overdone; I sense pride in their selection and how their coffee is made. There is a lactose-free whole milk option, which does not ruin the integrity of the coffee as opposed to soy milk. -I really liked my Coco Loco latte! I never was a big fan of coconut, but I think that's changed now. Delicious! -super friendly staff Cons: -most places to sit are high bar stools with no backs to hang your backpack or purse. A good addition to their tables would be some purse hooks underneath. I'll definitely come back when I'm in town again! read more

Love this coffee spot!!! Their cereal milk latte is iconic. I tried their match and it was pretty tasty. Food is delish!! This is a great quick coffee spot. During covid they have a bench outside you can eat at. They were all very respectful and wearing appropriate masks. Definitely recommend!! read more

This was an interesting place to find. For me, it was kind of hidden. But that makes its discovery all the more precious. Right when you first enter, you notice the modern industrial look that a lot of places are adopting, while still feeling very cozy and intimate. Now, the coffee. They use flavored CEREAL milk, which lends a whole new attitude to coffee that I never imagined. I can't even remember what I had, but it was glorious. And the avocado toast! Very flavor-full, and the runny egg on top was the perfect touch. Tiny grape tomato halves lay on top with some crumbled cheese. Everything about it was perfection. Well worth the price, which I thought was slightly overpriced. As an afterthought, I grabbed a blueberry lime scone and I'm very glad I did. It was rich and delicious and flaky and soft and all the other good words you want in a scone. They also have a variety of knick-knacks for sale, from coffee mugs to clothing. I definitely will be revisiting this place in the near future, far future, and even alternate dimensional futures. read more

Small little shop with super cool vibes and really kind baristas! Indy Coffee is in walking distance of UTSA and is great for a coffee or a light brunch. Vanilla latte was really yummy! It's cozy and welcoming, but the lack of seating was a little inconvenient as a lot of people were working and spent extended amounts of time at tables. read more

Tried out this place on the way out of town. It has a cool, relaxed vibe and is full of that college energy. I ordered the "dirty brown" which is a cold brew with vanilla and cream. It was delicious. Strong and smooth coffee, accentuated with a simple syrup and some cream to round out the flavor. I heard they also have cereal milk drinks, and I'm looking forward to trying that out next. read more

Indy Coffee - Dirty Brown- cold brew with vanilla syrup and cream - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

We went for iced mocha and oat milk. I love the taste of the espresso. The service was great and fast.

The vanilla latte is my daughter's go-to drink. The espresso is made manually by their barista and you can see that their beans are freshly ground and packed right in front of you. The result is a rich and boldly flavored espresso drink with fruity and deep notes, indicating the quality behind Indy's product. The vanilla syrup is also hand made, you can see the vanilla beans floating in the bottle. At Indy, they take coffee making as an art and science. read more

Indy is definitely my go-to coffee spot, especially because I'm a student at UTSA and it's right across the street. It's a great place for classic drinks, but they also have drinks that are unique to them (such as the Dirty Brown, which is amazeballs) and seasonal drinks (my fav is the Sean Pecannery). There truly is something for everybody. Their food menu has been more limited since the opening of their sister restaurant, Scorpion, but the options that they do have are all delicious (I love their avocado toast and the Japanese omelette sando). Overall, their food and drinks are all extremely high quality, consistent, and delicious. The space itself is a little small, but it's a really awesome place to study and chill with great decor and great vibes. The staff are all really nice as well as knowledgable about the products they serve, which I love in a coffee shop. read more

Firstly, this place is in the building with a dorm, so it's going to be tough to see when you are driving by. As the address states, it's filled with college kids. The staff are very inattentive and don't seem to want to be there. My wife is a coffee fanatic, and we had to have them add a bunch of stuff to make them ok. Save yourself the trouble. read more

Indy Coffee - Chilling - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Cute little place!! Love the decor! Wish the employees were a little more welcoming. We were not greeted upon arrival. When we starred and the menu for awhile deciding what to order no one offered any recommendations or asked if we had been there before. The employees had little interaction with us. I spoke twice while in there.....once to order and second to give thanks when I picked up my drink. Super quiet and awkward in there. But I can say they have good coffee! read more

Their green tea latte is pretty good. They have great customer service and the pricing is a little higher but it's worth paying a bit more. My green tea latte was around $5.00. The location is good but parking can be difficult depending on the day you go. I will definitely be back and look forward to trying other food items on their menu. read more

Indy Coffee - Green tea latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

A cute study space but sadly the short hours just don't work for me. I've been hunting for a good study space in San Antonio that isn't too loud and has a perfect space to lay out my journals and books. This place was great but sadly closed early. I'm not the earliest morning person so just finding a cafe that stays open at least by 8 pm is hard to come by. The moment I walked in I was immediately told I needed a mask in kind of a stern way, which I get and understand, I did end up putting one on but I felt a little off guard by how it was told to me. I came back in with my mask and ended up trying one of their specialty chai lattes and it was good, not as sweet as I was hoping for but it was good. It was cool, quiet, and spacious which I love but just wish they would extend their hours a bit longer especially being in a college zone I feel like a lot of student would appreciate that time. I also wish I could've tried their pastries. I noticed a woman order a muffin and had no idea they had that there since the menu only had drinks. Will have to try next time! Hoping in the future the hours extend and I can do some studying here! read more

Such a cute place, and the vanilla cold brew is definitely one of the best coffees i've had!

Great Austin-based coffee shop near UTSA. I come here whether it's before class, after class or in need of coffee on the weekends. I usually get the Dirty Brown which is like iced half coffee half milk. Just what I need! Sometimes I get their avocado toast and it's amazing! The atmosphere is very urban and serene. Barely loud and perfect place to work or study any time of the day. The staff is very nice, helpful and makes some awesome coffee and cappacinos. Go check them out and you'll know what I'm talking about! read more

I had been wanting to check this place out for quite some time and was happy to finally have that excuse to head out to this side of town. This place is quite eclectic and has a very quaint feel to it. The staff here is really laid back and very knowledgable about their craft. On my visit I tried their version of a cold brew and was quite pleased with it. They offer lactose-free milk so that was a plus for me. They offer free wifi so I'm certain they're a huge hit being in such close proximity to UTSA. Situated within a living complex they're adjacent to a Pita Sandwich shop. Not quite sure if you can bring outside food but that might be an option. Side Note- Just came to me that I had a Dirty Brown which was hella delicious. read more

Indy is my favorite coffee shop in town. The coffee is wonderful & the ambiance of the store is great. But what makes Indy my favorite isn't the delicious coffee or aesthetically pleasing decor- it's the service. I've been a regular for about a year & the staff is polite or efficient, but also warm & highly motivated. They really go the extra mile. Kailey & Stacy always manage to be upbeat & on top of their game even during the busiest of rushes. They provide wonderful conversation & are the reason that going to Indy is more than just a coffee stop- it's an experience. read more

I really enjoyed the iced matcha latte made with oat milk. You can taste the authenticity of the matcha, not the typical sugary version that Starbucks and Dunkin' serve. And the avocado toast was bomb! Perfectly seasoned, nicely filling, high quality. It was very delicious. The reason for my 3 stars is because of a couple of things. One, there is no designated parking for the coffee shop, so you'll need to cross your fingers or pray that you'll be able to find street parking near by. Two, none of the chairs have backs to them. They're stools, and I never understand this. Usually people come to coffee shops for work or reading or just to relax, and how can you relax for an hour on a stool? Three, the customer service was just okay. Usually local coffee shops have a really nice "welcome! Have you been here before?" vibes, and have a pretty chill demeanor. The girl who helped me literally stared at me as I looked at the menu, which kind of made me rush to make a decision (there was no line, I was the only one ordering.) Then I went to find a seat (I had to use a table that was two businesses down because there was a chair with a back.) and I came back in and got my drink, and then I was waiting for the food and she looked at me, closed the back curtain and then a second later popped out and handed me silverware and told me she would bring the food out....just really awkward. I wish she would have said that initially when she was staring at me to order. read more

Great coffee shop in the SA area. The space is small and there tends to be people at Indy at all times of day, so seating may get difficult. However, it is a great place to get some coffee, especially if you're in the area. I think that their latte mixes are particularly unique; they usually have seasonal flavors as well as year-long flavors like their cereal milk latte, which I've found to be particularly delightful (because I love cereal). Their base coffee beans are on the medium-roast side without too much acidity, which I also appreciate. Overall, this is a great place to get some work done/read a book if you can find seating! It tends to be on the quieter side of coffee shops so great to help you focus. read more

Great setting and food, customer service was also on point. I recommend to anyone for good coffee

Girlfriend and I came here before heading out to Jacobs Well, needed some caffeine and a little grub before we made our trip. Found this place on Yelp, wanted to go somewhere new instead of the normal coffee shops. I had the conquistador drink (very tasty) and my girlfriend had some herbal tea. She ordered the pork belly breakfast sandwich and I had the blueberry scone. We enjoyed our drinks, the scone but the pork belly sandwich wasn't a favorite at all. All in all, we enjoyed the atmosphere, the service, and the drinks. read more

Indy is an awesome coffee spot! They also have a tasty brunch menu. The pancakes are delicious! They hand craft all drinks so it does take some time to get your drink, but it'll be good when it arrives. I love their cereal milk lattes when they have them. read more

I don't mind driving all the way out to the UTSA area for an awesome espresso! I've been a fan since they had their truck on Vance Jackson and Huebner, good times...such a personable experience! Indy is now located behind the UTSA campus in a new building attached to student housing. I love this coffee spot because it stays open until 10pm, we don't have any legit local spots that stay open this late in SA! The service is young, genuine, and kind...they make you feel like you're one of their long lost friends. They serve Parlor coffee out of Brooklyn, NY. I dig it, it's on the sweet/citrus-y side and the baristas are experts in the milk pouring department! Indy sells custom t-shirts, hats, mugs, beard serum, coffee scrub, and lighters. Other things about Indy: -Park where it says "Prado Retail" or on street...they tow like crazy -Ask if they have anything special like cereal milk -Play games with your friends -They use lactose free milk -Mellow jams are always playing -It's a student's dream so be prepared to enjoy your coffee at the bar or outdoors...study groups take up tables -Indy employees greet you and wish you well when you leave...so sweet! I wish Indy was around when I was a student at UTSA, lucky Roadrunners! Support local! read more

Good. Waayyyyy overpriced. You could find the same quality food and coffee for much cheaper at any other local coffee shop. Hard to find seating anywhere. Overrated but if you need an Instagram picture and an iced coffee (not even a latte) for $5 go for it. read more

A cool and hipster coffee shop that is close to me, thank goodness!!! The interior decoration is pretty unique, I would say. From their large wooden thingy that sits above the baristas to the giant Texas flag (bc Texas) to their cool plant holder thingies and their vibe. The place is quite small so it can be difficult to find seating but the whole area/complex is new so maybe more seating outside to come? They have wonderful drinks, some seasonal or secret but they are happy to assist you in your selection of drinks. I've never had a bad coffee from this place and I do enjoy their coco loco (please do try this if you like coconut) and their standard vanilla latte. I must say I did really like their Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal milk latte but they don't always have it. But they do have a fruity pebbles one, currently. I took my sister here and she loved it! I even bought some family drinks here and they really enjoyed them! read more

Indy Coffee - Vanilla latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

This place is tucked into a development right by a new apartment complex and other housing. Moving inside, it's not large, but it has a nice feel to it and great smells! The menu is simple, and it's good coffee shop standards. I asked if they had any sugar free syrups, but alas. They do make their own syrups in house, and I'm sure they're great, but I wanted to steer clear of the sugar. I requested a latte breve, extra shot, no syrup, two Splendas. I notices as they were making it that they used whole milk; I don't know if something was lost between order taker and barista, but when the finished drink came out, it was delicious. Rich but smooth coffee flavor from the expertly hand drawn espresso shots and perfectly foamed milk. A thoroughly enjoyable drink. A friend had a doppio which I didn't sample. However, it had a great crema and smelled fantastic. He reported that the flavor, temperature and texture was perfect. Overall, this is a great place for a cuppa. read more

As a student from UT Austin, I've been waiting for my chance to try Indy coffee for a long long time... And let me tell ya, it did not disappoint. Love that you can park in a parking garage--some people may not like walking (it's still close, just across the street), but I love the upside of getting free covered parking. The interior has great vibes. It's clean, inviting, and cool. My favorite part is definitely the great woodwork at the counter, but the Texas art and cute succulents are a close second. There's also a lot of great natural light in the shop, which makes it ideal for studying, having a meeting, or just hanging out. Staff is super friendly and are very willing to help you choose a drink. Some drink names aren't standard, but they'll break any drink down for you. It was also cool to see how they appreciated old customers and got to know new customers who wanted to chat. FINALLY, the coffee. I was recommended the coco loco (coconut coffee), and I loved it. The coffee was smooth, the foam was thick, and the flavor was great. Tldr; 10/10 would come again, even if it's an hour and a half drive away. read more

AHH! SO glad that Indy was finally able to open up their B&M location after so many delays from the apartment developer. Indy has a great Texan ambiance with natural colors and light making the space feel very welcoming, warm, and easy to stay in. There is ample couch space for hanging out, as well as wood tables with metal chairs for those that need to study (and power outlets to boot!). There is also a short bar area that the staff crafted, stained, and installed themselves. Basically everything at Indy was done by hand by the staff, from installing the bar counter to putting up the lights to decorating the space. It's got a really cool vibe! As far as the drinks go, Indy is definitely on par with some Austin establishments like Figure 8 and Vintage Heart. They source their beans from Flat Track and have pulled some of the baristas from Local Coffee to hang out at Indy. Their menu is simple with no prices (one of the small detractors for me, but I get the marketing) and some standard drinks have been renamed. Gibraltar is a cortado, and Eagle Scout is an Americano! they also have off-menu drinks, so be sure to ask about it before you order. LOVE the coffee and environment here. Definitely stop by if you're in the UTSA area. Also, there's a parking garage BEHIND Indy that's free! Go park there instead of on the street. There is totally free wifi too, so stay a while! :) read more

This is the brick and mortar location of the people formerly in a food truck and what a nice iteration it is. A beautiful long wood bar greets you when you walk into the store with the bar crowned by a they espresso machine. The entire vibe pays homage to minimalism with whimsical touches like a coffee altar that reminds one of the little altars to saints in old mexican restaurants. A bookshelf with books and games finishes off the decor. The coffee is of course excellent. Well pulled espressos, nicely constructed macchiatos and cortados are a lovely treat. Combine this will owner/baristas who can discuss the coffee, origins and flavor profiles, and you have fandom. read more

Great vibe, awesome decor, and top notch service. The baristas here are truly skilled, work fast, but always deliver quality coffee. Price is on point, never paid more than $5 for any of the lattes. The menu always has a few unique options in addition to the traditional stuff, and they're always taking the next step to create something different for their customers. I have been to Rosella, Press, halcyon, local, olmos perk, aspen, candlelight, brown coffee co and a few others in San Antonio. I can safely say I have never enjoyed any of their drinks as much as the Green tea latte and the Cereal milk latte at Indy. They're both so unique, so delicious, and downright addicting. Keep on experimenting Indy, y'all are killing it. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, plenty of outlets, and a great wifi connection. Perfect spot to study, catch up with friends, bring a date, or even just stop by to pick up a drink to go. There's also a lot of parking both on the side of the road and there is an entire parking garage right next to the coffee shop. I have also heard they have killer homemade spiced chicken empanadas and breakfast tacos, so I'll definitely be coming back to try some of the food ( they run out fast though). read more

I had some time to spend before morning church. Instead of planting myself on the couch in my den to watch TV, I wanted an experience. Now my coffee experience to date has to a great extent been limited to gas station coffee. I mean is there really a difference in taste between convenience store coffee and a coffee shop? In trying Indy Coffee this morning I can give a resounding yes! I walked in to the shop and before even sipping the coffee my eyes were feasting on the decor. I learned the wood from their tables are reclaimed from an old Texas schoolhouse. From the wall baseboards to the tables and more, the owners with help put it all together. This mom and pop place borrows its look from no one. It stands as an original in decor and I mean that in the best way possible. Love the vibe!!! Okay, back to the coffee. I didn't know what to order so I asked one of the owners to make me something I'd enjoy and boy did I ever enjoy that cup of coffee. A perfect balance of sweetness to coffee flavor without a bitter or burnt follow that I just presumed is a trait of all coffees made. I never felt the need to add anything to it. I now get why people go to coffee shops. It's a smooth taste and I felt so grown up and refined drinking from a cup with saucer. Who did I see? It's the locals and when I arrived around 9:30am (today is a Sunday), the place was already near full. It's clear to me people here know a good thing and I just learned too. Yes, I'll be willing to drive across town just for another experience here. I had a chance to have a chat with one of the owners, bask in a place I felt much cooler by thanks to being in it and learned what a really great cup of coffee can really be.
