    A nice little spot...friendly staff! Self serve...clean! Prepared food is too expensive! Two bibimbap were $44.00 for self serve! Served in paper bowl? Kimchi was really good! We took two jars home!

    Korean goods galore! The market is small but has the pantry staples you would need to cook Korean cuisine. They also have snacks and drinks in smaller sizes so you can try a bunch of things. Their brand of kimchi is available in the refrigerated cases and they have a nice variety of options. They have a small menu of Korean dishes they cook also. They have six tables inside with two chairs at each table. The owner is so nice and so is the employee we met. The owner hand picks her favorite products (good brands too) and carries them in her store. Because of this, you can't go wrong here because it's as if someone else has done the shopping for you, and you just have to pick and pay for what you want to take home. We tried some of the Korean ice creams, snacks, drinks, and they were all good. We would definitely stop by again next time we're in Fort Wayne.

    This is such an adorable little shop/cafe!! I needed to grab some gochujang and ended up getting several things. I love the little grab and go section. And who doesn't love banchan??!!! The spicy fish cakes were fantastic!! I can't wait to go back and get more stuff!

    I recently moved here from Indy and I was so happy to have found a place where I can get korean snacks and food that I enjoy but unfortunately I was disappointed at prices. For example: 5pack of Shin Ramyun noodle for $11 come on now! It should only be like $5-6 at most. Most of the snacks that they have are online or even on Amazon 2x less their price. For me unfortunately I don't love the kimchi I got from True Kimchi. I personally like my kimchi crunchy and the ones I got were super soggy and soft. Can't eat it them without adding them in a soup or mix them with something else as they smell and taste like they went bad. I do want to say that their Kimbap are really good.

    This little shop was nice and cool when i walked in on a sunny day, the staff was very kind with helping customers and checking us out! I got the famous strawberry sando and it was delicious paired with the matcha strawberry latte! I would come back and recommend to others!

    I love their kimchi! They use local and seasonal ingredients from local farms. My favorites are white kimchi and radish kimchi. So crunchy and refreshing!

    I'm not much of a yelper but had to write about our experience at Kanela-SW-Indy . We both agreed…read moreit was phenomenal, as soon we walked in the shop , we knew we'd make it a point to stop by every time we visit Fort Wayne. The coffee shop decor has a warm inviting feeling. As we glanced at the menu as made up to cashier/counter, we were greeted with a welcoming smile & hello. We are a mixed racial married couple. We get a lot of stares when we walk into a restaurant/shop. Athena D/cashier was very patient with my wife's questions about the smoothies, as well as mine. We asked so many questions. She was such a trooper. Thank you again Athena D. My wife ordered Slenderberry smoothie. I ordered the peanut butter cup smoothie w/o chocolate (I know I'm one of the few people in this world who allergic to chocolate) I added extra peanut butter and 2 extra bananas. Both of them were made to perfection. We also ordered break feast croissant, grown up grilled cheese, break feast burrito w/o the bacon. I gave up pork 2 years ago. The food was amazing & delicious. If you're ever in the neighborhood or just passing through Fort Wayne. Stop by this hidden gem and support the locals at Kanela-SW Indy.

    We had Kanela two mornings in a row and took it back to our hotel…read more My wife had the Americano with floras and almond milk. She also tried the Acai For Me bowl. I had the Egg and cheese with bacon croissant and a Mango tango smoothie. The service was pretty quick and I didn't have to wait long on my order. The food was excellent and a great way to start our day. The building is old and historic with a laid back atmosphere.

    First of all, the Black Forest Cat Cafe is very well run, clean (odor free!) and a pleasure to…read morevisit. Order at the counter, the baristas will call when your order is ready. I was excited to see they use Old Crown coffee! Reusable cups! We took our coffees into the cat-greeting area, which is totally enclosed. There were maybe 8-9 beautiful, clean, friendly cats there. The visiting (which costs $10) lasts just short of an hour. Again, I want to stress how clean and nice everything is kept. The animals are extremely well cared for. I wish I could take all the kitties home, but for now they are well-loved and happy! We didn't try the food, but I have confidence it would be good! Next time :)

    I wish I could give higher than 5 stars, this is a really special place! We have been here 3x now,…read morewe don't live in Indiana, but we make it part of the itinerary when we are there. The cafe is huge, and safe for both people and cats. You can go and sit by a window and watch the cats, or you can pay $10 for 55 minutes in the room with the cats. So, even if you can't afford the $10 you can still see the kitties. $10 for nearly an hour is a really great deal, too. I've liked every kind of iced coffee I've tried (cookie latte, white pumpkin, and mocha). My partner gets the plain black, and he says it's good too. I need more sugar, personally The staff is great, too. They all have really big hearts and love these cats. They keep the room clean (no litter smell), and the cats are well taken care of, the human bathroom is clean, too! They also have merch like shirts, mugs, and hair accessories and I believe the proceeds go back to the cats. I haven't tried the snacks, but they are always darling with little paw prints on the cookies etc. Can't wait to go back!
