Amelia’s - Snagging some country loaf and seasonal pastries - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Who doesn't love bread? If you are reading this and you don't, I think you are lying to yourself. Amelia's is in Fountain Square and there is plenty of free street parking all around. It's a small walk in shop. Right now they are requiring masks! As soon as you walk in, you are welcomed by the best smell ever of fresh baked bread. They have plenty of items they source from other places as well- chips, honey, spices, etc. They also have a refrigerated section with egg salads and dips. They even have a freezer with gelato. I came here this time with my mom as she wanted to pick up some bread and egg salad. The staff member helped her choose a bread that would work for it best and asked if she wanted it sliced. We also indulged in getting some croissant cinnamon rolls. Those were heavenly. If you are in the area, you have to stop by Amelia's and try out some of their baked goods. read more

Amelia's has erased from memory any breads I may have had that are this delicious. The flavor, texture and chewiness are perfect. The baguette and the focaccia are both better than european versions I have tasted. Oh, don't miss that amazing biscuit. Great flavor with layers of butter. Please open a bakery in Cincinnati! Or offer classes to teach the world how to make bread this good. Thank you! read more

My go to pastry is a classic croissant. This one was delicious. I do wish it would've been a little more buttery. The classic drip coffee was perfect for it it was a beautiful morning and sitting outside enjoying this was a great way to start the weekend. The two employees working were nice and we talked about the Barbie movie. There is plenty of parking around and I love that they're open until late. However if you're looking for a latte or something more creative they don't offer more than just drip. read more

Amelia’s - Croissant - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Have wanted to go all the time but I always forget on Saturdays. I happen to be downtown during the week and decided to stop. Cute little shop with lots of special ingredients and baked goods. I got the dark chocolate brownies, the chocolate croissants, and the 1/2 country loaf. Everything was delicious and the person working at the register was amazingly helpful and even suggested that the Broad Ripple location was closer to me. Cute little area for the shop to be in and I loved every one of my items. I love that they offer half loaves because that is the perfect amount for me being an individual. read more

Finally made it to Ameila's on Saturday afternoon! Brightened my rainy day! I didn't realize how much they offered in the sweet little shop. This included many house made items - a variety of hummus, chicken salad, tuna salad, potato salad, pasta salad, all the salads. I clearly wanted to try them all but opted for a caprese salad. Y'ALL. I love caprese and will make it often at home during the summer. This caprese was next level and I can't even place why. How can they make such a simple salad so delicious? They also offer a variety of cheese, meats, vegetables, chocolates, and beverages, all (or mostly) locally sourced. But didn't I come here for some bread? I was glad to see they offer half loaf options! I got a half a country loaf and it was everything a good bread ought to be - light, airy, fresh, and a good crust. I didn't get any baked goods on this visit (really, who am I?!) but will definitely be back soon to try them. Tip: When you walk in there is a freezer on the left wall of the store. There is homemade gelato in there! Will also be trying next visit. read more

Okay, I am literally obsessed. I have passed Amelia's so many times. I work in Fountain Square, but I used to work closer to Mass Ave, and I would pass their east side location all the time. I went to go grab a coffee from CF Coffee Shop during my teacher prep period, and since Amelia's is right next door, I decided to stop in and check it out. First of all, I love bread so when I walked in and was met with the delicious scent of freshly baked bread, I was more than impressed. I walked around for a minute and saw that they serve as a small grocer for some more luxury and local items. They had local lettuces, a variety of deli meats, and pasta. However, my eyes were drawn immediately to the fresh bread and pastries at the counter. I was planning to grab a half loaf of bread to take home, but when I locked eyes with the French onion Danish, I knew it was coming with me. I didn't even know savory danishes were a thing! However, now that I've had one...I think Amelia's is my new favorite pastry shop in Indianapolis. The Danish is perfectly cooked. Flaky on the outside and soft on the inside. The middle has cheese and is topped with herbs that make your mouth water, the middle is filled with caramelized onion. I can only imagine how delicious this could be dipped in hot soup. I think I need to reiterate how DELICIOUS this Danish is. I am completely sold on savory danishes, and when you try one, please make it from Amelia's! The employee who rang me up was so friendly. He told me about their specialties and got me excited to try the French onion Danish. I am so glad I decided to stop by on a whim, and I cannot wait to go back soon! I think I will try a loaf of bread next time! read more

I was craving something sweet and I checked Yelp for a bakery near me and fate brought me to Amelia's. It was a Wednesday evening and I didn't even think I would find somewhere to quench my hankering. But there it was. It's a quaint spot adjacent to Bluebeard. I walked up to the glass display cabinet and there it was in all its perfectly tan goodness. Light, crispy, flaky, with just a bit of chocolate peaking out. My beautiful chocolate croissant. It was love from first bite. Light, buttery, melt in your mouth goodness. I want more! read more

Wow. Talk about wanting to live in a neighborhood with something that resembles this. It's the cutest little bakery with an assortment of fresh baked goods. They also have a small grocery area with fruits, produce, deli items and juices. There are a few other items available as well. They serve breakfast sandwiches on weekends and their menu changes with a special sandwich each day. On Monday It was the turkey club. It was absolutely delicious once I placed It in the microwave. It was full of flavor, the chipotle sauce was perfect. Would love to have this again. The croissant cinnamon roll was also a great treat read more

Amelia’s - Selection on Monday - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Normally, I wouldn't recommend a small- to medium- scale bakery in any town I've lived in outside of New York or Chicago, but this place is different. Their croissants are perfectly on point. The cookies are, too. Try... The oatmeal pecan with coffee. The toasted almond and toasted pistachio croissants. The chocolate buckwheat cookie ( it's gluten free ). The breads here are top notch. The focaccias are perfectly oily and cheesy without being too much of any one flavour. Finally, I have to put in a good word for the folks here concerning service. When my oven was out at my place, I would order a pizza from here on Friday nights. They usually don't warm them up when next door is busy, but when I explained my situation, they obliged. Furthermore, every single person who works here is knowledgeable about their products and has no problem suggesting new items to try. It's hard keeping a positive outlook in this time. A little kindness goes a long way at 8am. read more

I stumbled upon Amelia's while driving back from Kentucky going towards Chicago. Now I'm faced with a huge problem and that is : do I have to drive for 3 hours now to get myself a delicious baguette and other pastries, soups , etc ? This little bakery is the bomb.com Literally everything I tried was delicious. The Baguette is so good you can just eat it by itself. The croissants were scrumptious. The cookies were amazeballs. I even bought a soup (elote bisque) just out of curiosity and it was a festival of flavors in my mouth. I mean if you read my reviews of other bakeries you know how many I have criticized because it just was abysmal. So don't take this review easily. This place is a BAKERY and it means business. So seriously order everything you can get your hands on and thank me later ! read more

Amelia’s - Wake and bake mugs ! Cute ! - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

This is so so good! I've stopped in a couple of times to get fresh sourdough based bread and my only complaint is that I wish they had more items. I've recently tried a fenugreek biscuit that was very fluffy and moist, I wish they had croissants too! It is a friendly spot, they will slice your bread for you if you get something like a loaf of city/country bread. The country bread doesn't seem to be like a normal wheat, I can't place it but it tastes very nutty and unique. If you need small groceries, they also have cuts of meat from local places as well as herbs. They are open 8-8, so they may replenish throughout the day, but when we went during late morning, they were out of focaccia so it may be worth visiting earlier if you can! read more

Amelia’s - Country loaf - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Cute tiny shop on the corner of Virginia Ave! I walked in (masks are required) and was the only customer in the store around 6 PM. They've got fresh baked bread behind the counter and Fischer farms meats and local soups in the fridge. Baked goods are also available in the case. The lady at the counter was helpful. She informed me both breads I was looking at were sourdoughs and actually talked me into getting a half loaf of each so I could try them both! I don't recall the the second loafs name, but it was a much denser and darker version of the country loaf. It was good, just not my favorite compared to the other I got. I'd still get the country loaf next time! It's airy and crispy on the outside - soft on the inside. Overall I'd give it another try! The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that I find the bread to be salty and to leave me parched. I've never experienced this before, but noticed it. Wouldn't keep me from going back though! read more

This is such a cute spot! It's super tiny and only 3 groups are allowed in at a time. They do have some tables where people can enjoy their pastries outside. I got the plain croissant and cinnamon roll. The croissant was not too buttery and perfectly flaky! The cinnamon roll was also very too sweet and had the perfect amount of frosting and flakiness. read more

I am surprised that I have never reviewed this place yet. I go here pretty often. I love their chocolate chip cookies but the last time I was there I decided to try something different and OMG the cocoa brownie! That brownie was so decadent even without a drop of icing on it. I know what I am getting next time I go. One of my favorite places in Indy is Bluebeard restaurant that is next door what I didn't know was they are both owned by the same person that is why the bread is always so good at Bluebeard. I would suggest giving Amelia's a try as they have loaves of bread you can take home they also feature a daily sandwich special and plenty of cookies and now my new favorite the cocoa brownie. read more

If you're looking for a chocolate chip cookie with a gooey chewy interior yet a crispy exterior, Amelias is the place for you. I'm obsessed with the OG chocolate chip cookie with flaky salt on top. I've also tried the gluten-free buckwheat chocolate and the ginger snap cookies but the real winner for me is definitely the chocolate chip. Their freshly baked breads are fantastic. The one item that I wasn't super impressed with is their chocolate brownie. It was a little underwhelming in terms of chocolateness and was missing the "ooey gooey" that I love in a brownie. Prices were reasonable, each cookie is ~$3 each. I can't wait to indulge in other goodies and visit their second location that recently opened up! read more

The bread... that's why you should come here... often. BTW they are open even during the pandemic, because good bread is essential. They have staples such as City loaf and country loaf that can be purchased every day. Also daily bread specials... I really enjoy the one with olives. One of my favorites is the Cranberry Walnut bread which pairs perfectly with a nice Brie. They also sell half loaves and slice the bread for you if you like. Keep in mind that bread freezes well, so why not buy a little more? You can also score some sweet baked goods here, such as cookies and Danishes. And to complete your shopping experience, they also stock a variety of goodies that go well with bread, such as cheese, olives and so on. read more

First and foremost, their bread is great! However, their consistency to provide an online shopping experience and to contact them, across all locations is a joke. For Fletcher Place you can place and order and pick it up and call them, with no problem. For the Windsor Place, you cannot order online and when you choose #2 at the main number for that location, many times it goes to voicemail. Now, this brings us to the Stutz location. They have no number and get this, when you ask the other locations for the number they don't know it. So, if the services were as good as the product the rating would be higher. So, come on Amelia's it is not that hard! Still, the bread is great! read more

Finally visited this little after been wanting to go here for such a long time. Their bread is so good. You can buy the whole loaf or buy half, which I'm glad because their loafs are big. The young ladie that helped me was very nice and recommended the city loaf. I didnt really have to wait long before someone was asking me if i needed help very attentive with their customers. Their prices are great not overpriced at all. They have pastries and decided to try the raspberry, lemon curd Danish omg it was delicious and it was big. Parking wise I was lucky to find a spot out front, I'm not sure if there's other parking besides street parking. I can see it being a little difficult to visit here often if there's no parking but it was worth it. They have tables outside if u want to sit and enjoy your pastries. There a little coffee shop next door which is perfect to go with your pastrie. read more

I had been coming to Amelia's for years for their amazing breads and pastries. I don't live in the area so to come here was a real treat and no matter where I was in the city I made it a point to stop here at some point during my trip. They almost lost me as a customer though, because this time last year I was there and they had a guy working who was just so over the top I was really astounded at how he was talking to people (I get it, this is a stressful time of year but damn! All of the people shopping that day were behaving so IDK what his deal was) I hesitantly walked in to a shop about half full. The workers were busy packing up orders but everyone was in good spirits and were smiling, saying happy holidays to everyone - it was a much better atmosphere all around. I bought my bread and pastries and cheese and left with my wallet considerably lighter, but thankful my Indianapolis staple remains on my list! I dont know what I would do without you Amelia! Thanks for being so great read more

This was my first time stopping in and I hope it won't be my last! There was such a variety of baked goods, along with local fruits, and gelato and coffee!

We also got a pretzel, brownie, and chocolate chip cookie! read more

Amelia's is my favorite bakery in the downtown area, and it isn't particularly close. I love not too far away from it, and I like to go at least once every other week for their awesome pastries and sweet treats. Their specialty menu rotates consistently, but you'll always find a few creative executions on sweet pastries, plus a couple savory too. Pro tip: if it's made with their masterfully crafted croissant dough, it's probably going to taste good! The staples they always have on their menu are also fantastic - my personal favorites are the brown butter blonde cookie and the dark cocoa brownie. I've only ordered bread once but it was really good, and they offer half loaves, which I appreciate. They also have local groceries in the storefront; I've had the curried chicken salad, and while expensive, it is very fresh and high quality. I've never been in for their daily sandwich specials, but need to at some point. If you haven't been to Amelia's, it's worth the trip. If you're in a hurry, order ahead online and take advantage of their very convenient curbside pickup. read more

This is a wonderful bakery located right next to downtown and some famous coffee shops such as Bovaconti & Calvin Fletchers. Amelia's has fresh breads, baked goods and a small grocery section too when you get in. I love the financiers here, they are totally worth my dime. Fresh, crumbly with the best texture and so well paired with black coffee. They have a variety of other baked goodies such as croissants, biscuits and scones. It's hard to choose but so so worth your time. I haven't tried the famed bread but a lot of customers walked in just for the bread. Loved Amelia's!!! read more

Amelia’s - Financier with drip coffee - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Everything here is quality. From their breads to the pastries to their cookies. You could tell there is some high level expertise and attention to details in how they craft their food offerings. Also, they've got a great selection of market goods. They've got kewpie mayo too! 5 stars - Chili oil. In the fridge they've got this chili oil that is soo good. The flavor profile is complex, it doesn't shy away from a nice spice level, and it has these fried onions in it that make it the perfect pairing to fresh steamed rice. And the chili oil is good on their bread too. 5 stars - Bread bake. Their bread is exactly as described. When they call it a baguette it's the texture and crisp you expect. Any of their sourdough loafs are what you'd expect, a good chew and the air bubbles from a fermented dough. 5 stars - Cookies. Their cookie flavor combos are so complementary. Depending on the cookie type, they can be crispy or chewy, so it really gives options to different type of cookie eaters. 5 stars - Pastries. With the standard pastry options, they have different savory and sweet options too, and are unique from what you'd find elsewhere. I really appreciate that. Every time I go I can try something new. 5 stars - Farmer's market. They can also be found at the Broad Ripple farmers market. Their goods sell out fast there, but it's nice that they go a little north so it's not too far of a drive for me to their downtown location. read more

Amelia's was right down the street from Milktooth and also in my Indianapolis collection so my boyfriend and I stopped in after brunch to grab some pastries before heading back home to Michigan. The shop is tiny and cute but they have more than just baked goods - I saw tinned fish, dairy products, preserves, a cooler of drinks, and other specialty grocery items. You could definitely get some nice picnic supplies here! I'm a big fan of savory pastries so I was excited to see Amelia's had a few different options that day. I got a capicola and provolone croissant and a spam, poblano, kimchi, and cheese kouign amann. I've never had a kouign amann before but it was basically like a croissant-like pastry with caramelized sugar on the outside. The kouign amann was really interesting! The sweetness did throw me off a bit at first, but the sweet and savory combo was pretty tasty. The salty spam was delicious and I loved the heat from the poblano. I didn't get much of a kimchi flavor. The capicola provolone croissant was salty and so flaky! I really loved the unique flavors in both pastries. Prices were excellent with most items ranging from $2-$4. I would definitely stop in again to see what other offerings Amelia's comes up with! read more

Let's talk fun cafes! Amelia's is a staple in the Irvington community. The pastries and the coffee of course but the ambiance is what really makes it great. The people who work in the shop are so nice and accommodating and everyone is so nice. What I love the most is the fact that they have an assortment of pastries to choose from. I got the brownie and it was so rich I shared with my daughter but it was also yummy. Perfect place to go in the afternoon for a pick me up! Highly recommend read more

Swung by after a Yelp Elite event across the street. They have lots of yummy looking things here. I got a whole loaf of bread and some pasta salad (pasta was a little pricey but worth it I think). Both were delicious. And the bread stayed soft for over a week (might have been because I didn't get it sliced in store, my friend got his sliced and he said it didn't stay fresh as long as mine). I definitely want to get some more yummy fresh bread, just wish it wasn't so far from where I live. read more

Amelia’s - Coffee, bread - Bakeries Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

My all time favorite bakery in Indianapolis!!! If you want any of their delicious bread and/or pastries, better go as soon as they open! They make their food daily, which makes it fresh for all the customers. But because of this, they only make a certain amount of items everyday. Therefore, it is first come, first serve. And trust me, it all goes FAST. They have a rotating loaf special every Saturday. They have rotating monthly pastries. And, my all time favorite pastry from here is the Almond Croissant. read more

I went to Amelia's based off of reviews about the chocolate chip cookies and baked goods! This is a great little quaint neighborhood bakery. It's a relatively small place, but has a large assortment of fresh baked breads, bakery pastries and gourmet grocery items. I was not disappointed with the chocolate chop cookie at all! It's large, satisfying and you can tell that it's made with quality ingredients. The customer service has been great every time that I have visited the bakery. Like so many places in the area, Amelia's doesn't have their own parking lot. But there's plenty of street parking in the area. Just know if you come at a very busy time, you will have to search for parking. read more

This is just such a cute shop. The pastries and desserts are displayed so well and the signage is so clear. Everything looks amazing and our most recent purchase involved a croissant, cinnamon roll croissant, raspberry matcha morning bun, and chive biscuit. I gifted most of those to my friend who I was buying for, but I did get to try the croissant and that was yummy. Their bread loaves look fantastic and I took a picture of their daily bread special menu for future reference. Enjoy! read more

I love Amelia's, everything they produce is delicious and reasonably priced. From the cookies, which are slightly crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle, to the cake-like scones, and even the fresh made breads, which they will even slice for you. Despite not living remotely close to either of their locations, I have brought friends here when they are in town or brought cookies to friends when visiting them. Everyone agrees they are the absolute best cookies. My favorite is oatmeal, which is sweet with the maple and slightly savory with a little sea salt. Perfection. You can order online, select a pickup time for that day, and either run inside to pick up or stay in your car for curbside. Convenient! They have some grocery products from local vendors, which is another convenient perk of stopping by. I love getting beautiful bunches of fresh herbs in the summer. What I don't love is how they hype up a new item on social media (very well I might add!) and then make the smallest batch of it. Items are released for online ordering when they open, 8am or a few minutes after. I will set my alarm, open the page right at 8:00 on the dot, select the new item and enter my credit card all within 60 seconds only to get a "Sold out!" alert as it shows my credit card processing. It won't even hold your cart for one minute. You shouldn't have to be in person, waiting in a line out the door at opening to score the treat you've been drooling over. Please make more of the speciality items and allow online shoppers even just 2 minutes to check out with reserved items. read more

So what did the toast say to the psychic...? "You Bread My Mind!" Ok I stole this joke But fellow bread lovers like myself will appreciate this local bakery full of yeast, flour, and all things toasty. Bread speaks to me in a way that is necessary almost every day of my life. I Need Bread. No... I NEEEED BREAD. And I'm not talking the store bought overly processed, sodium-filled, flat bread that feels like a literal crime against humanity. I'm talking homemade, locally baked, by true bread artisans, BREAD (Makes me float lol ). To fulfill my craving it was so worth the bread run I made last weekend to Amelia's Bread. Since moving back to Naptown, I noticed this shop and wanted to step foot into it and finally made it inside last Saturday. We walked into the shop after the morning rush and missed the toaster pastries. After partially crying inside, I regained my composure and decided ok I can just select another tasty breakfast treat. It all smelled and looked SO GOOD! So I was able to pick out some other goodies. It's very simple. They have a printed menu on the counter but you can just walk up to the display and point to what you would like. I had a few questions since the biscuit I selected was a different kind than I am used too. It ended up being very herby and slightly cheesy, like she explained, so I brought it home to pair with my own homemade scrambled eggs and a side of turkey sausage with my hot tea. Delicious and savory! My other bread pickup was more of a powdered sugar cake square type of thing, that wasn't terribly sweet but it was just perfect for me. Sorry I forgot to get the exact names of each item. The staff is very friendly, and the process was very quick to walk in and just grab and go. If you don't want to go, there are a few outside patio chairs but only a few. They encourage wearing masks which I appreciate and the shop is organized and also has other grocery type items you can purchase inside. Next time, I will get there before 10:00 AM to see if I can score a toaster pastry. You should too! read more

the worker gave off why are you here vibes.. like yeah they said hi and asked what i wanted to order but it wasn't necessarily friendly. did not feel welcoming now that i reflect back and i probably will not return. this shop is pretty stinking cute, it sucks i didn't get to ask questions but i think they actually make some of the goods inside or it's local/fresh? they did have ice cream with their brand name on it in a freezer. i saw a lot of baking supplies, meats, cheeses and although the place is not big i struggled to find what i was initially looking for or anything else i might want to try. i've been baking from scratch and fresh lately.. in the display right by the checkout were the baked goods and that's when i saw them ... the brown butter blondies. i'm currently obsessed with brown butter and i've only found two maybe three places here that have them. anyway they are sooo good. the cookie is soft and still chewy, they're absolutely bigger than your palm. i also got chocolate chip cookie which was good. parking is on the street as this is in fountain square my issue is solely with my obvious first time visit & lack of help / info provided. i hope it was just a one off. i do think if you're in the area you should stop in read more
