Front of the building

First time coming here. I love having a day off through the week and having the opportunity to check out a new local coffee shop to get my day started. I've been wanting to try silver linings, but they re branded under the name Anecdote. Same spot and building as silver linings. When I came in, I was immediately greeted by Clint, him and his wife Marty are the owners. Eventually, Marty came in while I was there and I got to chat with them. They are very sweet. They also own another coffee shop that I really liked which was the mocha nut, but now they are both under the name Anecdote. The inside had a chillaxed vibe, with comfy seating. The decor reminded me of the mocha nut as they had some of the same wall art. I was undecided of what to order, so I asked Clint for recommendations. He told me of some seasonal drinks and that always peaks my interest. I went for the Red velvet latte with almond milk and it was delicious. I got it hot and really enjoyed it, I'm sure it would be just as tasty cold. I chilled inside while sipping on my latte, sat with my thoughts to prep my day. They have a restroom located all the at in the back of this establishment. n the back area near the restroom, the seats were so comfortable that I enjoyed lingering there with my coffee and having a relaxed start to the day. They offer wi-fi and have the password on display, I'll keep that in mind when needing a quaint place to work/study, with good coffee.

Over a dozen tables to setup shop for a spell

What a delightful place, wonderful service with a smile, and excellent location! I hadn't been to Silver Linings until they reopened after a 6-week closure, now as an extension of Mocha Nut Coffee House (which I love). They offer the same customer favorites (Cafe Mio, Miso Banana, etc.) in Beech Grove. Come check out the relaunch!

Great coffee shop in Beech Grove. I got a zebra mocha and a cookie. The cookie is from an amazing local Bakery, three birds. The zebra mocha was really good. It was very cozy inside and the baristas were friendly and got our order made quickly.

Honey vanilla latte

Found a cute new (to me) little coffee shop today in Beech Grove. I typically order an Americano but felt like a cozy fall drink instead so tried the Honey Vanilla Latte (half sweet with oat milk). It's quite delicious! The space is cozy with a few tables and other sitting areas. Unfortunately I won't be able to hang out for long as there aren't many plugs - old building. So for me, great place to sit and chat with a friend, but not so much work.

Mech, plants and adorable book glasses.

What an adorable place! Our barista had an awesome mustache and was very personable. He brought us our order and continued our conversation about Riley children's hospital. We tried the chocolate banana bread was delicious and paired well with the seasonal bourbon brown sugar latte (subbed oat milk). Perfect place for a quick meet up, studying or even snuggling into a good book.

This was my first time in the downtown Beech Grove area, and I've been wanting to check out this coffee shop. They have a large menu offering, and I enjoyed reading through all the seasonal drinks. I ordered an iced honey vanilla latte, and enjoyed it. I stopped in late afternoon to get some work done, and this seems like a very popular place for people in the community to hang out or work from.

Cute sitting area!

Such an adorable little coffee shop nestled in the heart of Beech Grove right on Main Street! Hubby and I frequent the Spaulding Jewelry shop located right across the street from Silver Linings- so one morning while dropping off a watch (we lost the pin trying to size it ourselves) I decided it was time to try some new Java. Okay, first of all, we all know the stories about Beech Grove, we've seen the Walmart video on the news. This isn't that Beech Grove. Main Street alone is the perfect picturesque small town street with tiny storefronts smushed together like in the olden days before big box stores. There on a quaint corner sits Silver Linings. There is a small sitting area out front perfect for people watching and a bit of light reading with the colorful chalk drawings out front. Once you step inside you're greeted with lovely eclectic furniture and decor perfect for reading a book. The quiet coffee shop also has pastries and cookies. I opted for the double fudge muffin and an iced vanilla latte. It was done in record time. Delicious and a great perk up. I can't wait for my sister to visit again because we will definitely stop here for a fix!

A coworker suggested that we check out this place after lunch one day. She wanted to check out the plant pop up shop that was going on. I was pleasantly surprised when we walked in, I love the set up of the quotes, overall ambiance, as well as the coffee. They have some different options for coffee, and thankfully they office iced options for their drinks which was perfect because it's been so hot. I ended up getting the honey vanilla iced latee which was delicious! I loved this place and can't wait to go back to try more tasty coffee! I'm really excited for fall drinks!

I stopped in to get a gift card, but the only ones available at the time were e-gift cards. So, I grabbed a mocha and it was delicious. A large, 20-ounce was just over $5. Staff were super friendly and engaging. The place is beyond cozy and cute. Lots of seating options, if you want to stay and enjoy your delicious coffee. I went to their website later and scored that e-gift card. The process was easy and it delivered instantly. I'll be back here.

I had some pretty specific questions about the elevation at which their coffee beans are grown, and without missing a beat, the owner was able to answer everything right on the spot. No Googling, no running to look something up--just genuine knowledge and passion for coffee. I was seriously impressed! It's refreshing to find someone who doesn't just sell coffee but truly understands it. The atmosphere is equally fantastic. Whether I'm relaxing inside or enjoying the outdoor seating, it's a great place to kick back, unwind, and enjoy an excellent cup of coffee. The drink selection is awesome, too, with plenty of options to keep things interesting. And I have to give a special shoutout to my personal favorite: Witches Brew whole bean coffee! ‍ It's become my go-to for my morning cup at home. There's nothing quite like starting the day with a little Witches Brew magic! Great coffee, knowledgeable ownership, a welcoming atmosphere, and plenty of personality. Wild Child Coffee checks all the boxes! Five stars all the way! If you appreciate good coffee and people who genuinely know what they're doing, this place is absolutely worth a visit!

Super close to Irvington on the east side, I think this is coffee shop you definitely need to visit if you haven't yet. I tried a seasonal latte and had something with pumpkin in it. The art on the cup is cute and perfect for spooky season. They were having some trouble with their card reader and after several attempts, the worker said the coffee was on the house. I offered to pay cash instead but they wouldn't take it. Pretty awesome customer service considering I really wasn't that inconvenienced and was happy to pay for my drink. They also had some games inside and a lot of people were just conversing on this Saturday morning.

Everything down to the finest details about our lunch was so wonderful, that it's hard to narrow down for brevity.

They have a nice selection of gluten free options, and what we sampled was delicious. The girls were all so tickled with their Princess Tea lunch. They received crowns, and we couldn't help but notice that each girl received a color that matched their outfit. Having a selection of finger sandwiches and little sweet treats thrilled them just as much as having pots of tea to sample from their pretty little teacups. Even the smallest details were tended to. We enjoyed it so much, we quickly agreed to making this a regular girl date spot.

Dear reader,…read more Bovaconti Coffee in Fountain Square remains one of my favourite coffee shops, and we stop there whenever we come to town. It is the sort of place that feels special the moment you walk in. A lot of people rave about the beautiful space, and quite right too. The shop has a gorgeous, old-world feel in a historic Fountain Square building, plenty of seating, and a lovely outdoor area that is very dog friendly. The staff always boast a delightful disposition that makes you want to smile and enjoy the rest of your day as well. As for the coffee, I love the iced Mayan Mocha. It is like a mocha with a kick and extra flavour depth, and it is absolutely delicious. The dark chocolate, honey, cinnamon, and cayenne give it a little warmth and complexity without losing the joy of a proper iced coffee treat. They also have some really high-end pastries to choose from. I love the lemon loaf, and some of the more complex, unique pastries make it feel a bit more elevated than the average coffee stop. Overall, it is clean, beautiful, welcoming, and always worth the return visit.

There's plenty of natural light, but also several cozier, dark areas perfect for coworking. When the weather's nice, the patio is unbeatable - they offer ample patio seating as well as chairs along the sidewalk. I usually choose something from their seasonal menu, and recently I tried the iced blueberry brown sugar matcha and it was amazing. *Free parking directly outside the building on Woodlawn Ave
