    Carrot Cake Muffin

    Cute little coffee shop. The muffin was delicious and they warmed it up. We also had the Sugar and Spice Chai and Lavender Kiss Iced Macchiato. The only thing was the macchiato didn't come iced without specifying, but it was a cold day so it worked out.

    Had the most delicious avocado bagel and juice! Seating is limited, so be prepared to grab & go. Definitely worth the

    5/3/24, I joined my husbands' friends' wives for a speedy breakfast before a wedding later today. Some of us opted for the waffle biscuit, intrigued by its uniqueness on the menu. I added some hot sauce for extra flavor. The staff were welcoming and helpful. The ambiance was unique, somewhat quiet and spacious. The food was delicious and fulfilling. Highly recommend this spot for a tasty, quick, and healthy dish!

    Avocado toast

    Delicious avocado toast, and peanut butter toast. My husband isn't a fan of tomato, but we didn't know the avocado toast came with tomato, onion, corn and cilantro. The green smoothie was sweet. Excellent customer service! Great window seats, and couches available to sit and enjoy.

    A really cute addition to the downtown FW coffee scene! Ordered a vanilla latte with oat milk and it was great! And a chocolate chip cookie. The pastries are not made in house but the cookie was delicious. Really cute space + they have wifi! Street parking only. They have a pretty big food/drink menu, so we will definitely be back.

    - Avocado bagel was delicious! I loved the mixture of cream cheese and avocado. I normally wouldn't put those two together but it worked. The sprinkle of cayenne pepper and the Asiago bag made it even better! I wish going in I knew what was on it. The menu is vague and I assumed it was just a bagel with Asiago. Luckily I had no major allergies and like cream cheese! 4/5 - my coffee was good but I wasn't blown away by the quality. I could barely taste the dulce de leche. There was not enough oat milk. So it was like straight espresso. Tastes more like an americano than a latte. 4/5 - the inside, or the ambiance, was industrial and beautiful! It reminded me of a mixture of Gossip Girl, Friends and Gilmore Girls. I loved how there was plenty of seating so you don't have to worry if you meet a friend. They also had outside space which was nice! 5/5 - the person at the register seemed confused when I signed up for their rewards program. The other person who helped her was not friendly and also didn't seem to know what was going on. So that was confusing. The people were nice though and friendly. 5/5 OH! Parking is rough because it is downtown. I parked two blocks away at a meter and walked. Make sure to pay for AT LEAST 30 minutes.

    I stopped in really fast to waste time on the $5 parking that I purchased. I was excited to pop in, bc I Utopian coffee was closed (they close at 4 PM on Tuesdays just in case you wanted to know :) Kanela is the cutest little place. I love the front of the corner store front. It's so sweet and inviting. I wanted to try a vanilla chai tea, since this is my most favorite drink. I love trying vanilla chai with a shot of espresso wherever I go. Dirty chai, good morning chai, whatever you want to refer to it as. Its not the best I've ever had, but I do like it. I didn't catch the gals name who took my order, but she was wonderful and very kind. It's a cute little space and they have rewards. $1 off your first coffee. Check it out. It's a great addition to the new landing in FW

    Kanela is a super cute smoothie shop and café in downtown Fort Wayne. From the tile on the floor to the lighting, Kanela's décor is trendy and inviting. It's good for working as there are a few small tables, some comfy chairs, counter seating, a couch, and a larger table for groups. The wifi is free and works well. There is metered street parking nearby if you're not in walking distance. It's also across the street from The Landing, making it a great place to stop in and get a coffee before visiting other shops nearby. My favorite smoothie is the Strawberry Slam, which has strawberries, bananas, and vanilla whey protein. There are so many options for breakfast and lunch that there is something here for everyone. There are weekly food specials if you're looking to try something new. There is even a kids' menu.

    Love this cute, new coffee shop over on the Landing. I was visiting town and got breakfast here with a girlfriend. I loved the atmosphere and decor of the place. Very cute and cozy!!! The staff was friendly as well. Their menu was impressive. So many healthy drink options it was hard to choose! I ended up getting the Sweet and Green juice and a breakfast burrito. I wasn't too impressed by the burrito but the juice was delish! Next time I would want to try a vanilla chai tea or a smoothie. The baked good and croissants were also intriguing...but next time! They had cozy seating options as well as bar-top and table seating throughout the building. We came before rush on a Saturday at 9:30 am and sat in a cozy L-shaped couch area. It filled up quick! Will for sure come back next time I'm in town to try some other things on the menu!

    One of my favorite spots in Fort Wayne! Green juice is fresh and avocado toast has fun elote twist. Right next door to the Bradley hotel

    Great atmosphere, easy to get work done, free wifi & printer. Great service Ana lovely menu with wide variety!

    A nice view from the windows and a great latte
    Kayla G.

    As a self-proclaimed coffee snob, let me just start by saying that this is the best espresso I've had so far in Fort Wayne! The vanilla latte was amazing. The baristas are obviously experienced, and the rich, chocolatey espresso they serve up here makes for an amazing latte. The views outside of the windows, especially on a rainy day, are unmatched. While the coffee alone is deserving of 5 stars, the only downside is that the shop is a little small, and it's not quite the vibe where I could go sit there and work all day. But, to just pop in for a latte and a slice of their sour cream cinnamon pound cake would certainly be a delightful experience!

    Great urban coffee shop. Coffee, food and service are always good. Pleasant environment in the middle of all of the downtown action.

    Spoke and Ivy - Filet mignon with Brussels sprouts and crispy potato

    Spoke and Ivy

    (37 reviews)

    Spoke + Ivy (west Main Street, FW) - another locally unique dinning experience that deserves a try…read more Spoke + Ivy is located on west Main Street - across the parking lot from Redwood Inn restaurant, if that helps. This restaurant is set in an old building that used to house a pharmacy. It retains the character of the building via the hardwood interiors, tall ceilings, large window views of the street and concrete/industrial ceilings. The interior is nicely decorated with inviting green, brown wood and black accent colors. Table settings were very attractive as well. You can park in the small side lot or on the street. Reservations are easily made on line. The team is very friendly and welcoming. All set the stage for a fun and relaxing dinner experience. Spoke + Ivy has a very small food and specialty cocktail menu. This is the second time we have been here. Each time we found the food to be delicious and the cocktails are uniquely designed. Here is a run down on the food items we ordered: -Focaccia Bread: a mildly sweet, dense/firm bread, slightly airy with a touch of herbs to accent. It is cut into blocks so it is easier to share. The vodka sauce is thin in consistency with a smooth Italian seasoned tomato appeal. Both make for a deliciously simple starter. -Lobster Roll Rangoon: decided to give this a try. It comes out as one large Rangoon - not individual pieces. This means that you must awkwardly cut this shareable into pieces. The slightly crispy & oily wrapper is similar to most crab Rangoon pieces. It has a nice crisp. The inside has shredded pieces of lobster. It was not filled with creme cheese sauce like traditional rangoons - just plain. The green lemon parsley sauce was simply outstanding! It's very fresh, moderately thick and has a slightly tart taste. This added "the sauce" to what the inside of the Rangoon was lacking. -Milanese: nicely breaded chicken that was very moist. The breading is slightly sweet. The fresh bed of arugula salad is a nice add -Prime Rib Pho: this sounded really interesting. It's a smaller/healthier dish. The medium rare prime rib was sliced thin and tender. There wasn't many pieces of prime rib in this dish. The add-ins were fresh and much like you would expect from a Pho dish - just not as much volume. The broth has a chili oil base that gives it a spicier flavor. Overall we really enjoy this relaxed atmosphere and character of the building. The delicious food and cocktails are excellent.

    This is the restaurant on the MAIN level, NOT the speak-easy in the basement. We were there at 5:30…read moreon a week night. We were seated in a very awkward corner table for two where the tables were really close together. Since it was our Valentine's celebration, I would have been uncomfortable with the tables next to us having people at them because it didn't give you any privacy or space for private conversation. We did not get drinks or appetizers. Our meals were very good (salmon and chicken). The server was good but didn't refill my water and that' a big deal to me. Also, it's supposed to be an upscale place and they were out of paper towels in the bathroom. I feel like that is just basic service they should check on regularly.
