This is a nice coffee shop in the arts district of Carmel. I had been wanting to stop by and was able to on a week day without a huge line or crowd. I got the Spanish latte which is perfectly balanced. They had some interesting matchas drinks which I might try next time as well as many pasty options. The interior is beautiful and well styled. They have a fair amount of small tables. read more

Bovaconti Coffee - Spanish latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Carmel, Indiana

Bovaconti in the Carmel Arts & Design District is one of those places that just gets the atmosphere right. The coffee is great, the vibe is fantastic, and the outdoor seating is especially gorgeous when the weather is nice. It is an easy place to enjoy whether I am working for a while or meeting friends to hang out, and that flexibility is a big part of the appeal. Carmel is better for having spots like this. Staff are always chill as well, maybe not the most chatty, but it's almost always busy - they're working hard! read more

If you are looking to impress a friend or date with a unique coffee destination look no further than Bovaconti Coffee in Carmel! Just make sure to get there before your proposed meeting time because the line is often literally out the door. This was the case when I arrived thankfully I'm chronically early. It just so happened to be their birthday celebration when I visited, so Bovaconti was giving out free pastries that day. I chose a croissant which was fluffy, flakey and buttery as all croissants should be. I ordered the $5 SPANISH LATTE consisting of Espresso, Sweet Condensed Milk, Cinnamon & Steamed Milk. So good! My friend had the $6 MAYAN MOCHA made with Dark Chocolate, Honey, Cinnamon, & Cayenne. Also well received. The gorgeous building appears to be an old bank with the original vault converted into a smaller room with eclectic decor. I recommend going on a weekday. read more

I switched things up today and decided to try a coffee spot in Carmel before a birthday dinner for my daughter. I've heard about Bovaconti Coffee for a while, but this was my first visit. From the moment I walked up, I had a feeling I was going to love this place. The art deco vibe on the corner entrance, the bronze doors...it just felt like something special. And it didn't disappoint. Inside, the atmosphere hits that sweet spot. The decor is clean and intentional, and the music is just the right level; chill enough to keep things relaxed, but not so mellow that it puts you to sleep. Whether you're meeting someone or getting work done, it works. The coffee was great! I love sweet heat, so "hot honey latte" was all I needed to see. The pastry case definitely caught my attention with plenty of options that looked worth coming back for. One thing that's absolutely worth noting...especially if you're planning to work from here...is the seating and outlet situation. In a world where coffee shops can feel like the Hunger Games trying to find a table near a plug, this place delivers. I counted nine tables along the bench wall alone, all within reach of an outlet. They've also got great outdoor seating for the nicer days, and even an old vault that's been converted into a quieter space...perfect if you need to take a call, have a more private conversation, or just lean into your inner introvert for a bit. All in all, this is a spot I can see myself returning to. Great vibe, great coffee, and a space that just feels easy to either lock-in for work or lean into a conversation with a friend. read more

Such a cool spot. Great service with a smile, fantastic everything croissant & quick turn on drink orders. The Vault room is a fun place to share a snack and intimate conversation too. The patio is super nice and very dog friendly as well. I'll be back weekly if not more often. read more

Really quaint coffee shop located in the heart of the arts district in Carmel. Love the atmosphere and style along with the coffee. Croissants are SO GOOD, don't skip a pastry with your coffee! My only complaint is that there isn't enough space to spread out if there's 2-3 of you. It's great if you're working alone from here, but a majority of the tables are small round 1 person tables. You won't be able to fit 2 computers on these tables comfortably. If you're not coming here to work on your laptop, then this is a great spot to hangout and grab a drink! Do be mindful of what time you're coming here as the high school students flood in after school is out! read more

Spanish latte was really good. So was the other coffee drinks we got. Fun atmosphere. They don't do names with your order so when they announced my Spanish Latte, I saw a guy run quickly to pick it up. I thought it was odd but figured he just got the same drink and was in a hurry. Well after those with me got their drinks and some customers who came after us, I asked for my drink. They said someone's must have taken it. Yup. He sure did. lol I suggest taking down names. read more

such a cute coffee shop! I walked in not knowing that this was a renovated bank, so it was neat to see all the details that were left intact from the bank such as the vault door leading to the small nook is such a cute touch! I also loved the back patio, it was spacious and they allow dogs to sit outside. For the coffees, we got the tiger eye & the spanish latte, both very well made, but I do think that the pastries were the star of the show for me. We had the cardamom bun and the cinnamon bun croissant. This has quickly became one of my favorite stops in Carmel. read more

Cute and trendy coffee shop right on Main and Rangeline Road. Not even related to the coffee, but the cup design - ADORABLE. The inside of the shop matches the vibe - subtly pink and trendy and a high end feel with lots of windows. There's a fair amount of seat but it's not huge inside. The outside patio is a great option or with the location being so good, I'd grab one to go and walk around. They're always quick at making orders and I never really have to wait. So far I've only had decaf and drip coffee here and I've loved it. Great place to meet a friend or start your exploring in downtown Carmel. read more

My brother recommended the coffee from this place and he was 100% right about how good this place was. At first the line exited the store doors, but it wasn't for nothing. What we liked the most was their croissants with almonds, with dark chocolate, with caramel, berries and much more. Indoor and outdoor seating options also available. The ambiance was familiar and tons of people with morning munchies. read more

Really cute spot and friendly staff. I got a Tiger Eye latte (a dirty chai) and a pistachio croissant. Both are very good - would hugely recommend the croissant! Parking is street parking so you might struggle to find something during busy times. read more

I've never been to the Fountain Square location, so this was my very first Bovaconti experience across the board and it did not disappoint. This place is very modern and trendy -- super cute. It's in a busy part of downtown Carmel, but I still found street parking pretty easily (and it was free!). The space itself is a nice size, with a long communal high-top table that stretches through the middle of the room. There's also a mix of booth and table seating along the wall. In the back, they have a little speakeasy-style room that I thought was really neat. I didn't get a photo, but it looked like it might've been a bank vault at one point. It was super dark in there, so definitely a cozy little nook for an evening hangout. I ordered a chai tea latte, and it was pretty good! I probably should've added a syrup, but even without it, it was still solid. Noted for next time! read more

A renovated old bank building turned coffee cafe- what could be cooler? The ambiance is light, lovely and cleans pretty pastel color scheme makes the space feel open. Servers are friendly and helpful. I got the delicious and refreshing watermelon mint shakeup. My son got the iced Spanish latte and the cardamom roll. Both he said were delicious. My youngest got the in-house made chicken sandwich. He said, "eh it could be better." He's nine lol. Overall really cool place, we will surely be back to try more z read more

Greeted as soon as I entered! On such a hot day and after having walked the Monan Trail, the air conditioning felt wonderful! I ordered a bottled Crossroads Kombucha which I noticed on the labeling was made locally in Franklin, Indiana.The one I chose is made with Blackberries and English Mint. I love buying items made in state and will be certain to look up this companies website as well! I will definitely be back to try their Honey Lavender Latte. What I found was a classy, welcoming environment when I could sit and read. It wasn't too noisy and I felt happy to just sit alone at this cafe. If it's a nice day then enjoy their outdoor patio! read more

Might be the most gorgeous coffee shop I've ever visited. I was in Carmel when a friend invited me to join her on a walk here, and I'm so glad she did. The space feels like a slice of Europe with every detail and design choice being thoughtfully done. I shockingly wasn't in the mood for more coffee that day, but I enjoyed a fabulous peppermint tea that tasted fresh and possibly locally sourced. I also really appreciated the local artist watercolor designed to go cups! We sat outside on the beautiful patio, shaded by umbrellas and surrounded by the soft sound of a water fountain, truly the perfect setting for conversation and calm. I sampled my friend's blueberry granola cookie and was genuinely impressed. I can't wait to come back and try the coffee/espresso next time. The service was relatively quick for a busy lunch hour mid-week. One especially charming touch to note is that the building used to be a bank, and they've kept the original vault door. The renovated vault now offers as a cozy nook, ideal for quiet work or date as it shifts to a more 1920's cocktail bar aesthetic. read more

This was a great find for us. We were out and about running errands in Carmel while visiting family and decided to try a new (to us) coffee shop. Bovaconti was nearby and had great reviews -- and I can see why! The shop itself is adorable. It's sweetly decorated with plenty of seating options. It was bustling the day we were there (two days before Christmas) but tables turned over frequently. I ordered a seasonal specialty drink; my husband ordered a shot of espresso and a flat white. I appreciated that my seasonal drink was flavorful without being overly sweet. My husband also ordered a pistachio croissant, so I (obviously) had to sneak a bite of that. It was incredible -- buttery and flaky with a lightly sweetened pistachio topping. The outdoor garden area looks lovely. I'm already mentally planning a return in warmer weather (if not sooner). read more

Two short lattes and a croissant came out to $16 and change. Mamma mia! This is why I usually just get a drip black coffee when I get coffee outside of my kitchen. But I was feeling indulgent this morning, and Bovaconti is new to Carmel and I wanted to support it, and honestly, my honey lavender latte was slammin' and so was the croissant, so I have no regrets. If you get a croissant and they ask you if you want it warmed up, say yes. The croissants are delightfully flaky, chewy, crispy and, surprisingly, slightly sweet from a light glaze on the top. It's just whisper of something -- maybe honey? There was nowhere to sit when I visited on a weekday morning. Lots of people posted up. But that was fine, because I was getting my goods to go. The majority of the people I saw in there at the tables were working on laptops. Oh! There's also a cool vault with seating inside. It's all dark in there and intimate. Apparently, this space used to be a bank. It's a neat detail that makes this Bovaconti unique from the one in Fountain Square. read more

This is my absolutely new favorite coffee shop now! The mocha latte I got was amazing, the service was quick, and I got the best croissant I've ever had. I don't live by the area, but the next time I come back to Carmel, this will be my new go-to spot. read more

At long last: welcome to Carmel, Bovaconti! We love to see downtown Indy businesses open up a second location in Hamilton County. Based on social media, this place has been hoppin' since it opened a few weeks ago. I visited on a Friday morning and by 7:45 a.m. the line was almost 10 people deep. Pros: - beautiful (and what I have to assume are delicious) pastries like croissants made in-house in the basement kitchen - an assortment of beverages and snacks in the refrigerated section - think Poppi, Alani, yogurt parfaits, pre-made salads, etc. Nice to know they have food options! - gorgeous interior - truly, you feel transported with the color scheme and vibes. And, that bank vault! - a nice mix of coffee and non-coffee options. Cons: - While a decent size space, there ultimately isn't a ton of seating - nor is there an outdoor space. I don't think I'd come here banking on getting a table to work or meet a friend. - I'm not a coffee drinker, so I judge a place by their chai latte. Unfortunately, my iced chai had very little chai flavor, and I felt like I was drinking milk for the first 80% of my sips. I'll opt for the iced tea options next time! - To my knowledge, there is no dedicated parking. There are a few spots in the back that look to be reserved for customers of other nearby businesses. Luckily, Carmel has free street and garage parking, but be prepared to park and walk to Bova. read more

We loved our experience at Bovaconti! The coffee bar was delicious and they have a great variety of drinks, without overcomplicating the menu. We loved the pastry item we chose, the Cardamom Bun. It was served hot, and had a great flavor! The back seating area was a great area to chat. It'd be perfect for a large group, but was a little awkward with other people as it's pretty close quarters. However, they do offer indoor seating as well as a patio, so there are plenty of spots to choose from! Our drinks were made quickly and made for a fun Saturday morning! read more

I have been patiently waiting for bovacanti to open here in Carmel. I'm so excited it finally has!! Their grand opening was busy. I was actually shocked to see the line wrapped around the store around 9am. The line went fast though! I was so impressed, especially for a grand opening. We got the Spanish latte and the bronze latte. They were delicious and well priced. The almond croissant was amazing!!! There's so much seating inside, which is a great add. There's a bit of a sun glare on the majority of seats early in the morning, fyi. It's beautiful inside. I can't wait to spend more time here! read more

Somehow waltzed in to an unexpected soft opening on another one of these cold days. The interior of the restaurant looks completely transformed from its days as office space. The old bank vault area is redone as a dimly lit private space, with the bank vault door still attached. They've got a stacked section of pastries and other goods, the cappuccino I had was excellent, and a lot of seating. The patio area that they have isn't quite built out yet, but I'm sure they'll have something impressive once it warms up. Welcome to Carmel, Bovaconti. read more

The space was clean and seemed well managed and I was good for working. I look forward to returning. read more

They have a little speakeasy room that is dark and has booths to sit in and a cute picture wall. read more

Anyone who knows me, has a hint that I love this place. I frequent the one in Fountain Square but they have a second location in Carmel as well. Located in the Carmel Arts District right on the corner of West Main street. I didnt recognize it initially as I remember that a bank was located their previously. Entering in its equally as quaint as the Fountain square location but with one heck of an added bonus. They turned the bank vault into a sitting area. Oh my goodness I wasnt expecting it. I had to come and grab my Earl Grey tea made with oat milk. The richness of this tea. I have no words. The customer service was wonderful. They were all so friendly and welcoming. I took a peek at the pastry case and they had a pistachio crossiant sign but none left. I figure im gonna need to try one sometime soon. It dosent matter which location you visit, you are gonna leave with a wonderfully crafted beverage that stays hot seemingly forever. On my next visit I will have to try out other menu items. If you've not been you have to stop in and check them out. Until next time happy yelping read more

Absolutely LOVE Bovaconti! Definitely a crazy popular spot. I fell in love at the Fountain Square location, but love visiting the Carmel location as well.

This place is FABULOUS! The interior is super cute with tons of seating. I went late afternoon on Wednesday and was still able to find a seat. On a nice day you can go enjoy one of the tables outside. The iced Spanish Latte was perfection and the Nutella croissant was INCREDIBLE! The barista was just the sweetest.

I absolutely love this place- when I can get in! Lol I guess everyone loves it and it shows how in demand a decent local coffee shop was for this location. Every single barista is kind and speaks to you upon entry. The first time I grabbed a lavender latte and it was very tasty, but I was overwhelmed with how busy it was and stepped to the side to wait for them to call my order. Inside it is beautifully decorated with lots of seating and even a hidden space inside the old vault. Favorite spot to sit is in the garden patio w the cute little lights and gated for privacy. I think everyone has been wanting to sit in that patio for decades! I revisited w a gf and not only was the coffee exquisite, but we grabbed a salad and sandwich from the front refrigerator. The food is imported from Yamalama or some place (I learned) is downtown INDY. After that lunch, I have been thinking about those salads for 2 days so I rode my bike over and grabbed some for the weekend. Easy to go, staff is amazing and really appreciate all the kindness from the jump! I love Bovaconti!!! read more
