Came here with a friend for a lunch hang out, and it did not disappoint! They were crazy busy but…read morethe line moved fast. There were a lot of different style seating options, so we picked outside. Got the cold brew flight, which today was cereal flavors. I was skeptical because I don't love super sweet coffees, but they were all delicious. The shop did a nice job of balancing recognizable flavors with coffee and not being over powered on the sugar. I also got the Som In Law sandwich, which is egg, chorizo and some other delicious things on an Asiago bagel. It was warm, crispy on the outside, perfect chewy on the inside of the bagel. The bagel to topping ratio was solid. It was a great savory treat to go with my coffee. Overall an awesome stop for a lunch hang out. Will definitely be back.

On this visit I had the Wolfpack bagel with bacon, and Canadian bacon! Hot, fresh, and no complaints from me! To drink I had the chocolate covered cherry frappe! Let me just say.....this is better than any chain coffee. The flavor tones were there and I enjoyed it to the last sip! The customer service here is also awesome! The staff is timely with getting orders out and I love that any bagel sandwich you want can be tweaked and customized. The ambiance - a very chill environment. It can be busy on the weekend in terms of the crowd, but it's SO casual "come as you are". The staff is chill, the other customers are usually friendly and there's usually room to find seating and enjoy your meal.

Food and Drink: I had Flapjacks for breakfast over the weekend! I had the protein omelette with…read morepancakes and a side of corned beef hash. The protein quantity is perfect as it has ham, bacon and sausage in it, and the omelette is larger than what you'd think. Cooked well and is flavorful! The only downside is that it doesn't come with other sides so there is an up-charge to add pancakes and hash like I did. The pancakes were solid! Fluffy and easily soaks up syrup. The hash was phenomenal and paired well with my omelette for additional protein and flavor. Overall, the food is great here! Customer Service: During the breakfast and lunch crowds, this place is booming! But the cashier and waitresses were amazing at handling the room. From my observations, they were attentive and were polite with everyone. Shoutout to Grace, who was waitress! Ambiance: This place very casual, and family friendly for all ages. I've seen elderly couples, families, younger couples, and somewhat large gatherings (e.g, a group of 8) and the staff ensures everyone is taken care of. Come as you are and be patient on weekends!! It is busy but you won't wait long and any wait will be worth it!

OK I will say coming from Hawaii that I have never eaten grits. My favorite movie is My Cousin…read moreVinny and I was really excited to taste the "what is a grit" and check it out. This place came highly rated on Yelp so we were all excited! I went for it: chicken fried steak, pimento grits and coffee. The coffee was fine and when we started ordering, that's when the problems happened. For some reason due to the POS software, they were unable to add items to an order. At some point, it just became "ok leave it as-is, just go with it". The poor server was at the mercy of the software. There were a lot of people there and the food took longer than expected. When I got the breakfast, I have to admit, it did not meet my expectations. But you need to remember, I am from Hawaii and this probably was my first authentic chicken fried steak and grits. The grits were like mushy, overcooked oatmeal - like very mushy - one would say it's overcooked. But what do I know? I don't know. The chicken fried steak was ok. The gravy was kind of sweet and I don't know.... I guess I expected more. Again, this is coming from someone from Hawaii who has never eaten this food before. I will say the prices were AMAZING! This meal started at $8.99.

Only 1 waitress was working unfortunately the service lacked refills and it was super slow to get the food. The biscuits were dry either they were cooked yesterday or overcooked today not sure which. The sandwiches would be easier to eat if the biscuits didn't fall apart immediately. The loaded home fries were the best part, be sure to ask for extra crispy or your potatoes will get soggy. Place was clean and today there was plenty of seats available.

I ordered the veggie frittata and a latte. The portion was honestly much bigger than I expected, which was a nice surprise. Both the food and the latte were really enjoyable. Unfortunately, since I was on a work trip, I couldn't take the leftovers with me--otherwise I definitely would have. I'd happily visit again if I'm ever back in the area.

I have no idea if there is a market segment that can be described as "fancy Denny's". Walking into…read morethis clean, bright place I knew it was a chain (there is something just a bit sterile about these places) so I know that consistency would abide. I got a Portuguese Skillet, the wife got her normal scrambled eggs well done, sausage, potatoes and toast. My skillet (hash browns, Chouriçoa sausage, scrambled egg, chopped peppers) came with an option of pancakes, they were good but I could have skipped them- that Skillet is filling! Everything was prepared well, came out pretty quickly. Our server, Ruth, was polite and effective. She engaged at just the right amount to make us feel welcome, without hovering. It's not inexpensive, but I do think fairly priced for today's economics, we spent $40-ish. If we lived near one of these would likely come in from time to time.

We visited The Fountain Room on a Thursday night, and while we were a bit surprised that the main…read moredining room wasn't open (it's only available on Fridays and Saturdays), we opted to sit in the bar area. The main floor dining like a lunch vibe, but it turned out to be a cozy choice. For appetizers, we started with the cornbread after our focaccia was unfortunately not the best. Seemed to be over-proofed. The cornbread was absolutely phenomenal and a must-have! A special shoutout to our waitress, Arya, who noticed our disappointment with the focaccia and generously brought us the cornbread on the house. That kind of service is truly memorable! I also had the beets and peaches salad, which was refreshing but a tad overdressed. Still, I couldn't resist finishing the entire dish. For my main course, I ordered the lasagna, and I can confidently say it was one of the best I've ever had. It wasn't overloaded with cheese and instead complemented by mushrooms and pesto, and surprisingly light on the stomach. My husband chose the filet and rated it an 8/10, saying he thoroughly enjoyed it. We were so full by the end that we skipped dessert. The decor of the restaurant is beautiful, and the staff was incredibly attentive throughout our meal. The only downside was the atmosphere; coming from Chicago, we expected a more bustling vibe on a Thursday night. It seems Indianapolis is a bit quieter during the week. Overall, we had a delightful dining experience, and hats off to Arya for her exceptional service!

I laughed though because the bar was playing The Muppet Show on the TV. lol The dinner menu is expensive so I went for brunch. (I believe their brunch is from 10am-2pm on Saturday and Sunday.) I ordered brisket hash (crispy potatoes, cheddar cheese, braised brisket, chimichurri, eggs, toast) and it was outstanding, although expensive at $24. My server was wonderful - just a delightful soul. The customers at the table next to me ordered chicken and waffles and their food looked amazing.

My boyfriend and I came on Mother's day (unintentionally) and we waited about 10-15 minutes to sit at the bar. Getting our orders taken & our food served definitely took a bit of time, but we enjoyed seeing all the cooks in action and getting to smell all the amazing smells!! I got Grandpa's one pan skillet and my boyfriend got the sausage breakfast sandwich on croissant bread. All I gotta say is those chefs definitely knew what they were doing! The flavors were unique and intentional and I enjoyed every bite. The home fries (potatoes) were also so yummy and everything was cooked really well. There's nothing basic about borage and I love that! This place is a gem. They also have a cafe/market area where you can order drinks and pastries. I wish we waited until we got seated to order drinks because the menu was much more extensive than what I saw in the cafe and I would have ordered a different drink had I seen all the other options. The staff here are also very welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed our little brunch and will be back with family next time!
