    I wanted to like this place more- the food was good, but everything else made it feel not worth it. Went to brunch with some friends on Saturday morning and although the crowd suggested a long wait, they said it would only be 15 minutes. Great! And they stuck to that- we were seated on time, but then the issues started. We were sat at the same time as another table of 4 next to us. We got our menus and put our drinks in... and then waited, and waited... I got a hot chocolate that wasn't even hot when I sipped it, and tasted pretty bland. My friends got coffees that they liked, but our waitress seemed so annoyed to be working there! She was very curt and I understand if you're busy, but maybe try for some customer service... We ordered our food (as did the table next to us) and waited soooo long, like 30+ minutes, and we were considering flagging down the wait staff to ask about it, but our waitress never seemed to even be around to ask questions... anyway, we finally got the food, and it was tasty, but I just don't think I would bother with this place again.

    Coconut curry soup

    This is a nice little spot in downtown Indianapolis. It's at the bottom of a business building and next to another café on the other side of the lobby. The menu had quite the variety. You can order things from the lunch or breakfast, which is all included on the same menu. I enjoyed the coconut curry chicken soup. The soup had a good taste, but I think it needed a little more coconut or thickness to make it more enjoyable. NICOLE was very attentive and kind. She ensure that we got our food in a timely manner and were satisfied with what we ordered.

    This place was extremely busy on a Saturday morning. Parking is metered, but I was able to find a spot on Washington Street without too much trouble. I liked the complimentary coffee bar while waiting for a table. Since I came with a couple of friends and didn't have reservations, we ended up waiting somewhere between 30 minutes to an hour before being seated. One of the biggest drawbacks was the restroom situation. There are only two gender neutral restrooms, and the wait was incredibly long. I waited close to 30 minutes just to use the restroom. It seemed like only one restroom may have been operational because I only noticed people coming out of one. For a business this large and as busy as it gets, I don't feel that's enough restroom accommodation. The first available table was outside, so we decided to take it. Unfortunately, it wasn't the best experience. There was nearby construction, making it very loud and difficult to carry on conversations amongst our table. It was also a windy and chilly day, and I definitely underestimated the weather. I should have brought a coat! We weren't in the sun so it was too chilly. The strong wind constantly blew napkins and other items around the table, which became frustrating. During cooler days, outdoor heaters would make the patio much more comfortable. Even though I was uncomfortable, our server was friendly and attentive to us. I ordered the Morning Edition breakfast, and it was excellent. I liked the variety of items included, everything tasted good, and the portion size was just right for me. I finished every bite and left satisfied. I really enjoyed the potatoes and cinnamon toast. I enjoyed my food and service was good, but if you're planning to visit on a Saturday morning, I would strongly recommend making reservations if possible. It could save you a long wait and potentially get you a better seating option.

    Avocado Toast (GF) Minus: picked red onions, and shaved carrots  Add: salmon, and over-medium eggs

    Café Patachou is my go-to when I'm craving breakfast in the middle of the day. Any variation of avocado toast is my go-to, and they get it right every time! I've never been disappointed.

    This is very solid modern breakfast spot. Food was pretty good but relatively expensive for the portions. The coffee bar was very good. Food: I was very pleased with the quality of the food but you might be disappointed with the portions if you like a hefty breakfast. The coffee bar was very high quality featuring locally roasted coffee. Service: The staff was prompt and food service was fast. The waiter also gave us the check without us having to ask but it was a bit early about half way through the meal. We didn't mind because they reassured us to take our time, but some might think it rude. Atmosphere: The interior was clean and modern fitting the downtown business atmosphere. It's just not my favorite atmosphere for breakfast.

    croissant french toast
    Priscilla C.

    first time having a croissant french toast and it was delicious but pretty sweet. crunchy on the outside w/ pecans and soft on the inside. not sure if it's a seasonal thing but it made me really happy that the side of fruits did not have any melons!! for being the same cost as most of their omelettes, i wish it came w/ one more side or be priced at $1-2 less. cute spot in indy close the convention center and great service. would come back again next time i'm in town!

    Ricotta stumbled egg and sourdough toast
    Carla S.

    This Ricotta stumbled egg and sourdough toast was absolutely amazing. The service was very good and the wait wasn't long at all. I absolutely recommend this dish and this restaurant! Love the Ambience

    Waffled Grilled Cheese

    I was only in town for a Colts game, so we stopped in for brunch, and it was so delicious. I loved the unique touch they put on the food, and the staff was amazing. The space was pretty crowded with the farm-style table seating, but overall it was a great experience.

    The Vegan Crepe (which is actually a savory chickpea-based crepe, not a sweet one) was fantastic! The crepe itself was tender and flavorful--definitely not your average boring vegan egg substitute. It was stuffed with tasty ingredients like black beans, vegan cheese, arugula, and avocado. The jalapeño pesto and salsa served alongside it added a great, fresh kick without being overly spicy. It was filling, wholesome, and felt like a truly thoughtful dish, not just an afterthought. The service was prompt and friendly, and the location across from the State Capitol is very convenient. If you're looking for a delicious and healthy place start to your day in Indy, this is a great spot.

    Ordered avocado toast. Received this sad looking piece of bread with like 1/4 of an avocado lightly spread on top. Boring interior. Slow for food to come out. Would not recommend.

    The food was amazing! Me and my daughters enjoyed brunch there for their birthdays. Our server was super nice and they got us in really quick. We were looking for a brunch type feel and that is exactly what we got. The place was pretty packed, but we were able to get a window seat because outside was pretty full! I had the best tomato soup I've ever had!

    BreAnna D.

    Food is always so fresh!! It's such a good spot for breakfast and brunch. Most locations do get busy on lunch and weekends so plan ahead. The aesthetic is bright and modern.

    English Toffee latte
    Alexandra H.

    Cute cafe located in downtown Indianapolis. Came here a few times for breakfast. The wait staff is very nice. I loved the Bruce's Granola Breakfast. It was yogurt topped with Granola, strawberries, blueberries, and a bruleed banana. Very good and filling. For coffee, I tried their English Toffee Latte and the Peppermint Latte. Both were pretty good. In the 2nd day of dining their, the staff recognized me, which was pretty cool.

    Parking is on the street in front of the cafe and in a lot on the side. I parked on the side and there were plenty of spaces.

However, you'd be remiss if you didn't make a stop in at some point. They primarily have table service but also a small bar "inside" - when the weather is nice, they open up the garage doors to make the entire establishment be outdoors. The staff that we encountered were all very friendly. Food is fantastic here, we ordered from the Devour menu back in August and got the burger and pulled pork sandwich with fries. They bring your food out on a giant sheet of butcher paper, so you're more than welcome to make a mess at the table! Everything was scrumptious, and the fries home as leftovers are as delicious as when you get them fresh. Perhaps that's why they're called the Best Fries in the World! I'm sure if a good sports game is on TV, you'll find me here soon enough!

I went with a Malibu and ginger ale, and it was served in this cute glass, I loved it! We were all so hungry, so we started out with a large order of fries, and they are a standout. They disappeared fast, came served on paper, and were crispy, hot, and delicious. We ordered the 2 10-piece wings (the biggest order available), including one batch cooked extra crispy. The wings were good, and I especially enjoyed the Fat Dan's hot BBQ sauce over the regular BBQ. I really liked the extra crispy wings. My boys also wanted burgers. One ordered the Wake N Bake Burger and the other got the Fat Dan's Burger. Both looked tasty, and neither of them complained. The ambiance strikes a nice balance between sports bar and family friendly restaurant. There is seating both inside and outside, and when the weather is nice, they open the large doors to create an open-air feel. That's where we sat, and I enjoyed it. Service was quick and efficient, which was much appreciated since my family arrived hungry. This is a solid spot for burgers, wings, and fries.

It's very cool on the inside with vintage and Indiana-themed decor, tin ceilings, and, of course, a potbelly stove. The staff were friendly. But brother and I were very confused about the ordering process. There wasn't a lot of directional signage showing where to start and each step of the process. I watched a few other customers go through and they didn't seem like they had a problem so maybe it was just us. Next time I would probably just order online and pick it up so I could avoid the in-person ordering process altogether. I had the turkey sandwich and it was pretty good. I would say definitely a step up from your typical sub sandwich chain in terms of flavor and toppings options. I tried the chili mac as well. The chili is definitely à la Wendy's but I enjoyed it. The mac and cheese was good as well. I'd probably get either on its own but not together again. I also tried the Potbelly/Zapp's collab chips, the Hot Pepper flavor. They were good but are definitely not for everyone. When I visited, most of their fountain soda options were out of order so I settled on a no sugar added Pineapple Passionfruit juice/soda which was actually pretty good. We'll definitely be back - especially to try out their milkshakes!

I don't know, but someone needs to change their name so I'm less confused. Anyway, New York Gourmet Deli, on the east side, is great and located in an unassuming parking lot full of potholes. It looks like a liquor store from the outside, but step inside and you'll see the large deli counter where you order sandwiches, burgers, fries and other foods. The joint is also a convenience store, of sorts, with a wall full of refrigerated beverages, aisles of chips, candy, and lots of Mexican snacks. There's also a little corner of the store with goods like laundry detergent and other necessities. The hustle here is unmatched. The fellows behind the counter were flying all over the kitchen to fulfill the orders. I visited around noon on a weekday, which seemed to be a busy time because there were lots of people from all walks of life here, either waiting to order or waiting for their orders. The guys behind the counter were unflappable and took orders and made sandwiches at a speedy pace. Even if there's a line, you won't wait long for your food.
