It's been a while since I have been here! Formerly The Mocha Nut, Anecdote still looks as cute inside and offers the same friendly service. This feels like a coffee shop where they really try to get to know you and ask how your day is going. Tried their salted caramel latte with house made carmel syrup and it's one of the best lattes I have had! I can't wait to go back again and try some of their other house made flavors - there are several. read more

Anecdote Coffee - Cafe Miel Peppercorn latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Wonderful spot! I came here for maybe my second time and they are just a great place for coffee and or a good pastry. The barista was very helpful and helping me find dairyfree options and decide on a drink that was appropriate for me. The vibe is very cute and rustic. I cannot wait to come back here! They have a bathroom. They have ample parking. They have various options that are gluten-free and dairyfree. Not to mention, they have a cooler of drinks for those who maybe aren't "big" on coffee. They have lots of seating for meetings or for working. Make it a stop. read more

This was a gem to find and has been my favorite coffee in Indianapolis by far. The baristas are so friendly, welcoming and hard working! The vibe is cool, the syrups are house made and the equipment is top top quality (grinder, espresso machine) but the baristas matter too, and ours nailed it. I had the most delicious cinnamon honey latte and a honey latte. This place is special and I highly recommend it read more

From the moment I entered to when I left then I felt welcomed and at ease! Busy spot, but not too loud. The workers were all super friendly and even asked for me to let them know how I liked my Pumpkin Chai that they recommended when I found they don't serve Matcha. I also got a gluten free pumpkin muffin warmed up which was delicious! Along the high seats at the window were several charging spots for working remotely. If I'm ever this way again then I will stop in! read more

Awesome place! I tried a banana miso latte and WOW! I didn't even know what miso would taste like in coffee but the barista took the time to explain the flavor and sold me on it. It was exactly as she described and so delicious. I brought my 2 year old in with me and they were so sweet to her as well. The inside was bustling with people and it definitely felt like a fun place to hang and get work done. read more

I had a work meeting here at the suggestion of one of my alumni, I was pleasantly surprised to see how busy it was when I got there. The location is very welcoming and there are different options for seating; you order at the counter and they call you when it is ready, I decided to go with the banana miso latte which was delicious! I didn't think those flavors work work together and they certainly do! It was delicious! I also had some chocolate chip banana bread! All around delicious time! I can't wait to get back here! read more

Just off the main drag of Southport Road, you'll find the lovely little coffee shop The Mocha Nut. This is one of those places where you can feel the pride of Indy, with local honey and other products for sale. There's lots of tables for a great place to connect with others or get a little remote work in. One thing that I really appreciated about the coffee shop that I don't really see at other coffee shops is a nice large-font menu. I'll admit that I do need to wear my glasses more, but it's something that helps make a place more accessible when you have an easily readable menu. Anyway, I got a lavender lemonade and an oatmeal cream pie. These items came out within a few minutes of ordering. The cream pie was fantastic and reminiscent of the childhood snack but a much more elevated experience with the most luscious frosting filling. The lavender lemonade was also good, I just wasn't expecting it to be carbonated. Value score (cost to food quality/quantity): 5/5 stars. I think this sweet treat duo was around $10 which is about what I'd expect to spend. Mich-Ellen stars (like the Michelin stars, but I'm Ellen and you're reading my yelp review!): 1 star. This is a great spot for locals who enjoy coffee and a cool spot to visit. A place like this is really only for the locals, so that it keeps its charm! I'd recommend coming, and then coming back again! read more

My go to Coffee Shop is generally Rivet in Westfield since it's closer, but I found myself on the southside today and am happy that I stumbled across Anecdote ! The coffee is clean and has great taste and they make several tasty lattes! The banana miso latte was good and so was the lavender. The sausage egg and cheese biscuit was really fresh. They used fresh ingredients (not frozen like a lot of coffee shops) If you're looking for quality coffee in a super laid back environment on the southside then look no further read more

I stumbled upon this place taking a wrong turn early Saturday morning. It's close to Longs Bakery. It's a very laid back place and for 830am on a Saturday it was hoping. People playing games, chatting or on their laptops. While waiting someone was on a date there meeting. They sell a few items to eat, muffins, and biscuit and egg sandwiches. I didn't eat but will keep that in mind next time. They sell items there like cups, shirts and other things. The service was great, and the lady at the counter was very helpful. They just came out with their holiday drinks so I got the Gingerbread coffee. Very mild and tasty!! read more

I'm usually not on this side of town but I had an appointment and I'm always on the hunt for a delicious latte. Yelp did not disappoint. A million percent recommend this place. The barista was so sweet and patient, and she gave great recommendations. I got an iced vanilla latte (extra points for their house made syrups) and a breakfast sandwich. Both were awesome. I also got a cookie but I totally forgot to pick it up and left without it. Will definitely get one next time! This will be my go-to spot on the south side. read more

I've always passed this coffee shop and wanted to stop inside, and I finally got a chance today. It's a standalone coffee shop with a relaxing vibe inside. They have a parking lot out front, makes it easy to access. I've heard about the banana miso latte through yelp, so I decided to give that a try. I've never had anything like it before. I asked the barista what's inside - banana juice, miso flavoring, 2 shots of expresso, and milk (I opted for oat milk). I chose to dine in and a 16 oz cup which is equivalent to a medium (they have 3 different sizes - 12oz, 16oz, 20oz).The barista was very friendly; she greeted me with a smile and answered all my questions pleasantly. Service was pretty quick, they call your name when your order is ready, and you pick it up from the counter. My latte looked very appealing, I loved the display of the design and the mug it came in. They have several seating options - I really wanted to relax but the relaxing seats were taken, so I opted for a high-top chair with a window view. They do have tables and chairs outside for outside enjoyment. This place would make a great spot for studying, catching up with friends, or getting some self-time in. I really enjoyed sipping my latte and absorbing the ambiance. My latte was delicious, I could taste the notes of each ingredient working together effortlessly creating a savory taste. Music was playing, people were visiting, coffee was brewing in the air, and I was in engrossed in it all. When finished, the dishes are placed in the grey bins which are near a hall to the restroom. They also have a self serve water station, stay hydrated. They have 2 restrooms that are gender neutral, clean, and large in size. Clean restrooms is a plus! I'm glad I was able to stop here and try it out, can't wait to come back. read more

What a find in Southport! The stand-alone gem has excellent service and was quite a pleasant surprise. My coffee was hot, fresh, and plentiful, and my wife's lavender latte hit the spot.

The pumpkin pie latte is delicious and not terribly sweet, but the ginger peppercorn latte was my latest order and the best that I've had so far! It's got a little bit of spice to it and it's SO tasty! I will continue to come back again and again to Mocha Nut! read more

Cozy coffeeshop in the Southport area. Plenty of indoor seating, some cafe style seats outside. Decent sized parking lot. Coffee options are great and they're always coming up with creative seasonal options. I love their PSL, that is made with natural ingredients. They have some added some food options for breakfast and everything was delicious. Great natural lighting from front glass windows and quiet atmosphere to take a minute and unwind. Service has always been extremely welcoming and patient, they can even run an order out to your car if you order ahead of time and are on the go. Highly recommend for your next coffee break! read more

Stopped on our road trip to grab coffee and was surprised with how lovely Mocha Nut is! We tried a chocolate chip cookie, a blueberry lemon muffin, and an iced banana miso latte. Loved the decor and the service was great (although the woman making drinks could've greeted us when she saw us walk in; she just looked then went back to putting away cups. The guy who was on register came from the back and was nice). All around lovely spot! read more

I've been to The Mocha Nut a couple of times now and really like it! The atmosphere is great for a coffee shop talk with a friend. Both times I've visited I've had to wait for a table to clear and snatch it up. They stay busy! My friend's even had to circle the parking lot and wait for a spot to open up! You could bring something to work on here, but like I said, it's been busy whenever I've come in and a bit noisy as a result. So I think whether or not it would work out to work of a morning would be a toss-up. I did notice the crowds faded out around noon and it quieted down and tables were much more open. So maybe an afternoon work session would be the safer bet. Anyway, the menu! I'm a tea drinker, no coffee for me. They have Hubbard and Cravens teas, which are lovely. There aren't a bunch of options if you don't want a tea latte, but the ones they have are pretty good. For a straight up tea, you can get a green rooibos (herbal tea with fruit notes--pear, I think; I liked it, didn't love it), citron green (my favorite and now go-to order here), or earl grey (not my fave, it can get too "perfume-y" for me). If you want a tea latte, you have two chai options--masala or organic; my understanding was one is more for iced lattes, the other hot?--or you can get a London Fog, which is an earl grey tea latte. A large hot tea costs around $4.50 as of May 2022. A large tea latte is more like $6. Didn't see it listed on the menu board, but the barista let me know they do have dairy milk alternatives for those who are dairy free like me! I'm not sure how much extra they are to substitute or what kinds they have. I didn't notice any gluten free food or treats. They do have a little assortment of baked goods like muffins, though. For what it's worth, my friend has loved every coffee drink she's tried here! They have some fun seasonal flavors like cardamom rose and tiger's blood. They also have a rewards program that's easy to sign up for with a phone number. I'm not sure how beneficial it's actually going to be for me, but for people without food intolerances who like treats and coffee, I think it's worth a sign up! :) I'll definitely be back to The Mocha Nut again! It's a cute coffee shop with good drinks. read more

Welcome to the coffee version of Cheers...The Mocha Nut Coffee Shop, where everyone knows your name! This locally owned coffee shop on the south side prides itself on getting to know their customers. Every time I walk in I get greeted by name! The baristas are so nice and friendly - very sweet folks. Luckily they are not just nice, but make some great coffee! Per my first review, I still love the lavender latte. Their seasonal lattes have been fun to try (fall was my favorite). My staple is a pour over. They have two consistent ones and then a rotating brew. Right now it's a Tinker coffee. The consistent ones are medium or dark roast but usually the rotating one is light (which I vastly prefer!). The seating is great! This place is usually pretty busy, as a head's up, most of the time. They have some comfy sitting chairs in a couple corners, have a high table with stools running across the window, and tables of varying sizes. The high tables and a couple of the corner areas have outlets, so bring your charger if you're working or studying on a laptop. During warmer weather, you'll want to try the patio at the back of the shop. It's delightful and adorable! They have an online order option, both a website and an app. Usually takes only 10-15 min for your brew to be ready. Sometimes they even write nice things on your to-go cup! :) The snacks are good as well - their pumpkin muffin is surprisingly great (I am surprised only because I usually hate that flavor) but their chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. Parking is great, with spots in front, on the side, and behind the shop. There's a door at the back of the shop so feel free to park in the back. Also important for folks who plan to be there a couple hours: bathrooms are really nice and clean. Anyways, this is my top coffee shop in the city and we are very lucky to have this within the chain-store happy south side (within a 2 mile radius are 3 Starbucks). read more
