    Great coffee, service, easy parking (did not go on a race day). Airy and great ambience. They also have patio seating. Enjoyed some drip coffee and a scone and blueberry muffin. Definitely a notch above Starbucks with similar price. When we got there around 8:30 there was no line. In the next 15 minutes it was about 6 deep but moving quickly. Not a bad place to work from if you need a change of scenery.

    I really enjoyed this little coffee spot in "old" downtown Speedway. It is very relaxing and inviting. There is indoor and outdoor seating. It is a great place to meet a friend to catch up or made a business professional to talk work. The young lady at the counter, taking my order was friendly enough. I like they have lavender as an option of flavor. This hint of lavender is very refreshing. Not many places around the state offer this flavor. Way to go SPARK! I will definitely be back and tell others about this great little spot.

    This was posted on the door Sunday.

    They are no longer in business. Closed abruptly a few Sunday's ago. Gave no warning just stuffed the dumpsters and locked the door. Sign posted on door was a bogus reason for closing and made the buildings Owner look bad. Lying about your situation is a poor way to deal with reality.

    From the moment I walked in I knew this small corner coffeeshop was going to be a perfect place to do some remote work! They had good seating option cozy chairs and tables for 4, and window bar seating. The folks working there were friendly and knowledgeable. They had a good flow of customers for a Tuesday late morning. I ordered the orange chai with almond milk and it was delicious!! I eyed the pastries and could not pass the jalapeño cheddar scone. Worth a stop!

    I came here to work on some reports and I thought it was a great place do study or work! I mean definitely still bring headphones because people also come here to talk and are in and out but overall it was nice and there are seats outside too. The place itself was very cute and the sandwiches, snacks and drinks selection was good! I had a bagel sandwich and strawberry lemonade and I enjoyed it and finished every bite! I will definitely be coming back here and to the speedway area since it's so nice!

    First visit here and so impressed! The staff were amazing, friendly and helped me narrow in on my choice. Lots of options for enjoying the drink, both tables and cozy chairs. So many bakery choices too, though I didn't try one this visit. Very festive decor also, and I loved that it was quiet enough could enjoy a conversation with a friend while we had our coffee.

    Love this coffee shop! They make an in house brown sugar syrup that is amazing. Got a bacon egg and cheese bagel that was made fresh. The amount of egg that is put inside is AMAZING. You could tell that they went straight to the back and cooked the egg themselves not just unwrapped a pre wrapped frozen bagel. Really enjoyed the food and coffee. Would recommend to anyone visiting the area

    Spark Coffee is located on Main Street in downtown Speedway. Spark's goal is to "spark conversation while having great coffee." Main Street parking is available as well as parking on the side streets. Outdoor seating is also available. The interior is comfortable with 5 tables, a 4-top bar along with 4 comfy orange side chairs. There are interesting watercolors this month of various sizes on the 2 artwork shelves on the walls. The artist changes every month, so if you're not fond of one month, it will change. They are booked out for two years for various artists and styles coming to Sparks. The coffee shop has a nice selection of Espressos (lattes, Americana, Carmel Macchiaato, Cappuccino, and Drip Coffee. There are hot teas, Matcha Lavender Lemonade, Chai Latte, London (Gray Tea base), and Matcha Latte. I had the Carmel Macchiaato with oat milk and enjoyed it. Bakery items are available with muffins, orange scones, and bagels, with yogurt and granola, cookies, and breakfast sandwiches. I had the Monkey Bread Muffin, which was fresh, soft, rich, and flavorful. Spark has a fairly consistent business all day. They open at 6:30 during the week so you can grab a coffee and sandwich on the way to work. Our servers were terrific, friendly, and super nice. I'll be returning soon for another latte.

    I finally made my way over to The Spark and can I just say this coffee shop has some of the most patient and warm-hearted service! Upon entering, I was quickly greeted by the cashier and they gave me time to browse the menu and was super helpful answering my questions. The bagel breakfast sandwich was very HUGE, almost too big to bite. They have all the syrups that you can find at your typical local coffee shop! I got the matcha and it was pretty tasty. The only thing I will note is that this cafe doesn't carry any simple or cane syrup; however, they do offer a brow sugar sweetener that they make in-house! Overall, a small but very homey coffee shop to check out if you're ever in the Motor Speedway area!

    This is probably my new favorite place. The everything bagel has everything on both sides, the meat is mixed with the egg so it's a perfect bite every time, and the caramel macchiato is the perfect amount of sweet. There are tables, and a bar stool area by the window. I came and there was live music. It has quite a bit of seating actually and a few people on laptops so you can work while here. There's also a parking lot which I LOVE when I don't have to pay for parking.

    I was not expecting to find this clean, quaint, adorable coffee shop in Speedway. What a gem! I was out running errands and drove a different path which took me up Main Street in late afternoon. The Bold art work and warm light beckoned me to stop in. I had the white macadamia latte and my daughter ordered a peppermint mocha. Both were delicious. They also had a large pastry selection and a little menu of breakfast items including GF avocado toast. It has a variety of seating options - from tables to a counter seat along the window to comfy chairs. The walls are artfully decorated with what looked like local art -fabulous! And for sale! The barista (owner?) was friendly and knew his craft. And, it is soooo clean! Spotless! Definitely highly recommend!

    If you're looking for coffee shop that isn't part of a chain, look no further! The atmosphere is calming. Whether you are looking for a remote place to work, want a place to meet with friends or just want to treat yourself this is a great shop to visit! Catch your breath and relax as you sip on one of their regularly offered drinks or choose something from their seasonal menu! Be sure to try a bite to eat as well! I love getting a warmed orange scone or a monkey bread muffin! They also have avocado toast and other choices. Drop by and decide what delights your taste buds! While you're there be sure to check out the local features artists work in their walls! There are tables inside as well as a cute outdoor patio and your dog will even be welcomed with a treat If you're in a hurry, you can make use of ordering ahead with their app! Love this addition to Speedway and so will you!

I love that they make their own syrups and always have fun speciality drinks. The quality and consistency is something I really appreciate and helps them stand out. I love that they gave new life to this old historic building. It was so busy, and full of happy customers.

    I love Tinker Coffee and this spot is no exception to their overall brand. 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!
