    Always on the hunt for good coffee around Indy, my wife and I checked out Just Love Coffee Cafe in Carmel--and it did not disappoint. The first thing that caught our attention was the menu. Everything is "waffled," which sounds gimmicky at first, but actually works really well. I got the Bacon Tater waffle--basically tater tots and bacon pressed into a waffle shape with melted cheddar--and it was way better than I expected. Crispy, cheesy, savory goodness. My wife went with one of the sweet waffles and loved it. You can tell they're not just throwing things together--there's some real creativity in the food. The coffee was just as solid. I went with their house brew, which was smooth and easy to sip. My wife had the White Chocolate Tiramisu latte--sweet but not over the top, with a nice rich flavor. The space itself is cozy and relaxed, with a friendly vibe that makes you want to stay a while. Staff were super welcoming and helpful, which always adds to the experience. What really stood out to me, though, is their backstory. The cafe originally started as a way to support families going through adoption, and they still give back to different causes. It's cool knowing your coffee habit is helping do some good. All in all, Just Love is a great addition to Carmel--good food, better coffee, and a mission you can feel good supporting. We'll definitely be back.

    Chai tea latte

    Second visit to Just Love Coffee and had a lovely experience! Snowy morning called for a Chai Tea Latte & it hit the spot. Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff and quick service. Attention to the temperature of my chai is greatly appreciated! I'm not a coffee drinker, but I asked another guest about their cute as a button coffee flight and it got rave reviews!

    Lots of breakfast options to choose from (especially for a coffee shop), and their coffee is great. Plus, they accept InKind payments which is awesome. My only suggestion is around interior - it's a bit utilitarian and some soft seating / cozy decor would make this place 10/10!

    I JUST LOVE that everything is cooked on a waffle iron, so fun! I was skeptical at first, could food only made on a waffle iron be good? Yes. Surprisingly it was all do delicious. The food we tried was well balanced and left us feeling full and energized. The coffee is high quality and tastefully made. This would be a great date spot or place to grab a quick bite on a busy day

    I walked up to the door and was going to get some milk for my son. The staff told me they were closing and offered to get the milk for him. I tried to pay her and she refused. Thank you so much! I will definitely be back for lunch!

    Great place to stop in for a quick coffee and chat with friends.

    Breakfast Sandwhich

    Still one of my favorite spots in Carmel, IN! The service is always so warm, and the vibes are calm and relaxing. I tried the iced Solstice Swirl latte--wasn't sure about the passion fruit at first, but wow, it was incredible! Their seasonal drinks never disappoint--definitely worth a try!

    The BLT Sandwich and breakfast platter, and for coffee; the Cha-Cha and toffee coffees

    This was my gf and I's first time tying Just Love, and we were pleasantly surprised! We decided to share our meals. I got the BLT Sandwich and she got breakfast platter, and for coffee; the Cha-Cha and toffee coffees, which were very good! We ordered a small and it felt like a lot! Sharing gave us a good baseline for their breakfast and lunch and they were all very good. The staff was kind and the whole cafe felt pretty cozy. After eating we walking around to see what other restaurants were nearby, and pretty sure we will be back to the area, if not just for JLC!

    My girlfriend and I have been walking to Just Love for the past two years, probably more times than we'd care to admit, and it has become one of our favorite spots to hit for coffee and lunch. The highlight of eating here is most certainly the staff, who all greet us by name, with a smile, and a good conversation. We are cold brew snobs, and Just Love has some of our favorite cold brew and Nitro in Carmel, IN. Their sandwiches and lunch food are pressed in a waffle iron; which is a cool, unique way to toast the bread that I appreciate. I could not recommend this place enough if you live anywhere in Carmel. Just Love will not disappoint!

    My spinach feta womelet
    Aimee B.

    I always wanted to try this place and after I ran a half marathon in Carmel, my husband surprised me with a bfast date after. Cute vibe, very colorful. When we walked in we immediately went to the menus. The owner (I'm assuming) came out and told the younger employees that they should've greeted us when we walked in. I have to say, this was actually pretty nice to hear. While we hadn't even really taken notice of that it felt good to see that respectful customer service attitude encouraged. Coffee was great. We both got a womelet (shape of a waffle) and while they were good, I would've preferred a regular omelet. The waffle style felt too airy for me and not dense like a traditional one. They were pretty room temp when we got them and not hot. I would come back for their pastries and coffee cakes which looked amazing but probably not for the omelets. Menu is big though...so a waffle would be worth the trip back.

    Lovely little spot for breakfast or brunch. I was on my way yo a Yelp event and decided to treat myself to breakfast. The staff were welcoming and friendly and the restaurant is very spacious with lots of seating. They even have games to keep kids entertained. I got the breakfast sandwich with the waffle and the sandwich was huge but delicious and filling. I especially enjoyed the sausage. Most places I've found the sausage to be overly salty and overwhelming but this sausage patty was perfectly cooked and lightly seasoned. They give you some syrup for your waffle if you choose to drizzle it. I also got a latte which was delicious, hot with just a hint of sweetness. They have an extensive selection of syrups for your coffee, so you'll never get bored. Some places the coffee gets bitter but this was a very enjoyable cup of coffee. Definitely recommend!!!

    Watermelon Crush Refresher
    Andrew K.

    Their watermelon refresher is fantastic- it came out super quick and I see myself craving this in the future. This coffee shop is a perfect place to get some work done with the options of long tables and some soft couches!

    I stopped into Just Love on a Sunday morning, looking for coffee and a light breakfast. I love trying local coffee shops, so I was excited to visit and check it out. I ordered a spiced brown sugar latte, and a breakfast taco. My latte was absolutely beautiful, had a lovely layer of froth, and had great flavor without being overpoweringly sweet. I seriously enjoyed it! The breakfast taco was also good, and I liked that you could customize it by choosing which 2 toppings you'd like included. When I ordered though, I learned that bizarrely, eggs are not an included topping... so really you get eggs in your taco, and one topping. I ended up paying an extra charge to have a third topping. Management, consider clarifying the menu or just including eggs. It really isn't a "breakfast taco" without egg included! :D But overall, the shop is very cute, bright, welcoming, and has plenty of seating. I enjoyed the visit and my meal! Just beware of the strange breakfast taco scheme, hahaha. Salsa is included at no charge - why not eggs!

    This is my third experience here. Every time it's been better and better…read more First two times I came in for just one or two pieces of pastry. This third time I was picking up 18 pastries - 3 different types- all delicious and superbly baked AND a cake. WOW! The cake was amazingly beautiful! delicious and decorated exquisitely with huge intricate frosting flowers and leaves. I'm very very happy with my order- they even helped me carry it to the car. This bakery made my special family party a huge success, everyone enjoyed the food and remarked on how delicious it looked and tasted. Thank you SO much for making the event extra special

    I don't even know where to begin... I came in for a pastry and left emotionally attached…read more Let's talk about the croissants. I had not one, but TWO -- and I regret absolutely nothing. The raspberry pistachio croissant? Oh. My. God. This thing had me in a chokehold. Flaky, buttery layers with the perfect balance of tart raspberry and rich pistachio. It wasn't just good -- it was write-home-about-it good. The kind of pastry that makes you pause mid-bite and question every other croissant you've ever had. The second was a croissant sandwich (I wish I could remember the name!), but the way those flavors paired together? Let's just say it was a full culinary experience. Savory, balanced, indulgent -- you get the hint. Every bite just made sense. Now here's the part that really says something: I grew up on the East Coast where authentic French bakeries are everywhere and the cultural standard is high. I know a proper croissant. And this? This was better. Yes, I said it. We even had the chance to speak with the owner, who was incredibly warm and genuine. He checked in to make sure we enjoyed everything -- which we clearly did, considering we left with boxes to take home. This place isn't just a pastry shop. It's an experience. And trust me, it will be a topic of discussion in our house for days. Run. Don't walk.
