We visited Lulu's on a recent girls day out and all five of us were very happy with our food and drinks! It was cute inside, the employees were friendly, and everything was delicious. There's plenty of seating and it stayed busy but was never crowded.
Oh my gosh. I can't believe it took this long for an update. Lulu's is one of the best coffee shops in Indianapolis. My go-to order is still their iced dirty chai, but I like to add an extra shot of espresso and with the spiced chai. I also highly recommend the breakfast sandwich with the spicy feta! Everything about Lulu's is great!
I stopped by with my niece for afternoon pick me up. I got a mango banana smoothie and niece got a Toffee Tastic, oh and some kind of cake I can't remember what is was. The drinks were made perfectly and the cake was moist and melted in your mouth. The service was good and we were greeted right away. It didn't take long to prepare our drinks. Inside of the coffee were plenty of tables for you to sit and chat, read a book or study. I do want to come back and try other drinks. Their spring coffee menu is particular.
I'm pretty sure someone recommended this place to me years ago, but I just now made it here to enjoy gingerbread latte season. It's a very unassuming shop, sitting in a strip mall, but they pack in some seating to make it tempting to stick around in. It was actually relatively busy when I arrived on a weekday morning, but I made it up to order when there was a gap, so I was able to order right away. I ordered their version of a gingerbread latte and a couple of cookies, and I barely had a chance to look around before my drink was ready. I thought the coffee and sweets were good. The pricing was comparable to what you'd see at a lot of coffee shops, so yeah, it's not inexpensive, but I quite enjoyed my drink. Could definitely see myself stopping by again
Lulus is an underrated coffee shop in Indianapolis. The place is not talked about enough! They have super tasty seasonal drinks. I got the Croah which is a latte with espresso, strawberry, earl grey, and honey. The staff were nice. Only complaints in my opinion are not enough comfy seating and I wish they had some sort of loyalty program. They do have a ton of fresh baked goods and quiches. The company does also oppose which is another main reason to support them
I can't believe I've missed this cute coffee shop, especially living on the nw side! My co-worker recommended we meet here for a quick meeting. Very friendly service, with a 90's coffee shop vibe! The foot traffic stayed steadily busy with several tables filled with customers. They have such a vast variety of flavors, food and treats. I got the seasonal Winter Wedding hot coffee with the egg and cheese sandwich on an English muffin. The iced sugar cookie tempted me so I added that to my order ... it was good! The coffee wasn't as sweet as it sounded so I really appreciated that!
Came to Lulu's for the first time and the coffees = AMAZING! We grabbed the burrito, yogurt parfait and one of the pastries, and everything was so good. Wish we lived closer because this place is truly a hidden gem!
LuLu's has been around for a long time, and since I moved, I only visit when I'm in the area. They are located between Planet Fitness and Nina Nails. The staff is friendly and dedicated to making your experience enjoyable. My usual order is a chai tea, but on this occasion, I opted for the featured matcha. While it was good, it felt like it was missing something. I also noticed that, like many other coffee shops, their prices are reaching an all-time high. Despite that, I will continue to support them as long as I can. I particularly enjoy their decaf coffee drinks, as well as the quiches and pastries. It's definitely worth returning for. Go check them out.
Cute little coffee shop and bake house near st Vincent. I usually can't come here because they close at 3 and that's when I get off. Their coffee is amazing. I got a hazelnut pistachio latte and eeyores gloom. Both were delicious. Gloom was a little sweet but yummy and the latte was yummy and nutty. I also got a cookie butter cookie. I hope to go again for coffee sometime. They have the best combinations. Oh and the customer service is happy go lucky!
Boggles my mind how they figure nine dollars for a chai, I noticed some cheap sugar powder from a plastic box was mixed into cinnamon, coconut milk, and hot water for my cinnamon toast crunch drink. It was sucrose flavored tea. Absolutely right on for Dunkin Donuts or most anywhere without a care for at most four dollars. I used to think Provider and Coat Check Coffee downtown were getting sassy with similar prices for their house made milks, syrups, and fine brew however this place certainly wins on shameless price gouging. I was happy with the many outlets for my laptop, upbeat chirpy service, and good location however no way could any deep pockets ever accommodate less than Starbucks quality for double the price.
Did a morning errand, and saw Lulu's was around the corner. So glad I stopped. Did a Shot In The Dark that was outstanding - boldest coffee I've had in weeks. Their cinnamon scone was spot-on. Really a delightful little shop, locally run, women-owned ... ticks a lot of happy boxes for me. Definitely will return.
Lulu's is a hip little coffee shop that is a welcome alternative to the popular chains. They are located in a strip mall and attract local regulars, work out people and hospital staff. The staff is super welcoming and friendly. The coffee is good and they also serve a few sandwiches, tempting quiche and assorted pastries. The food is made to order, but comes out fairly quick. The sandwich was tasty and toast crunchy. The bacon was pretty thin - you can see through it. But the sandwich hit the spot. They have about eight tables inside and a couple outside (where you can bring your pup). Most people opt for carry out. They are offering assorted fall themed coffees at this time. Serving in paper cups and real plates.
I had the sugar free vanilla latte and an egg salad sandwich. The bread was very fresh, very good sandwich. 8/10 The latte was good as well. 8/10 My mom ordered a bagel sandwich, I'd say hers was a 4/10 though. I didn't see it until after I ordered but they have some good suggestions on their secret menu.

I'm always down to try a new (to me) coffee shop! While this is a smaller space located in a strip mall, it was packed on a Saturday morning. They had a sign posted on the door that they weren't able to serve drip coffee so we almost didn't go since that's the only thing my mom will drink, but then I remembered that americanos were similar and that was a suitable enough replacement for her. But normally they have a self-serve drip coffee bar with a few options to choose from. I went with a seasonal special - the Pottsfields Harvest - of course. Some type of pumpkin cold brew and it was delicious! I really liked the pumpkin bread slice I had as well. The menu had a ton of drink and food options to choose from. I like that they offer a stamp card to track every drink you purchase and eventually get a free one. I'm sure we'll be back! read more
This was an easy 5 star review! We stopped in for breakfast and they had a lot of great breakfast choices. I ended up ordering an iced latte and a breakfast sandwich that was on a bagel. Both items I got were on special listed on the board. They have a huge menu! We also ordered a slice of their butter loaf for our toddler. This is a great spot- and everyone was so friendly!! read more

Why did it take me forever to check this place out?! It's spacious, has quite a few places to sit and do work. The playlist is great, they have breakfast options, more than just pastries. The two guys that were working had the BEST personality and would check on the clients that were hanging out. I tried their egg white, spinach and cheddar sandwich, which wasn't anything I'd get again. I'm sure the egg patty was one that comes from the frozen section, which is fine when I do it at home. They have quite the menu for coffee as well that I'll need to come back to try. They have a few that were the top sellers last year so of course one must try them all and a pastry of course. Also for those of you that like to work in a cafe, they do offer free WiFi for 3 hours. You can purchase more after that. It's a nice space with plenty of options and great service. They also allow dogs inside and have pup cups, from what I saw. Looking forward to going back again and trying some new things. read more
Once again, because I only got a coffee, I don't feel really qualified to give a full fledged review... BUT, the fact that they serve decaf is VERY much appreciated! And mine was delicious. Service was good and it seemed like a nice place to hang, if you had the time. Would definitely come back, if in the area again. read more

This is a cute coffee shop I almost drove right by! It's in a little strip mall very close to Fresh Thyme. A lot of people were enjoying coffee in this relaxed shop, but there was no long wait and there were still empty seats. It was a nice vibe all around. I was going to say that my favorite thing was the festive holiday drink menu (Fa-la-la Latte? Yes, please), but it was really the service. Wish I had gotten the barista's name - he was so friendly! Definitely recommend stopping in. read more
This place doesn't look much from the outside strip mall. But when you go inside, everything is clean and everyone is friendly. The service was quick. I went for a special event. I was very pleased with the pastries and the coffee. There is a few seats outside if you want to sit out and enjoy the beautiful weather. If you've not been to this location, go check them out! Try a Latte! read more

Every time I go to Indiana I visit lulus almost every day! The drinks are great. The food is so comforting and delicious. They are so creative in there and always have seasonal specials with funny names and I love seeing what's currently colored on their chalk wall! The staff is also so nice. 10/10!! read more

Wanna know a secret? Maybe not a secret, but there is a little French pastry pop-up called Beurre Sec that is to die for. We stumbled upon it months ago by accident because I love Lulu's coffee and have been going every pop up ever since. First, Lulu's coffee. Latte's are delicious and I love all the seasonal drinks they have. The pastries they have are good and my favorite is the quiche! Beurre Sec. Come early because the line can get crazy. I've been there right when Lulu's open and there is already a line wrapped around inside and things sell out quick (even if you arrive just minutes after they open). A little pricey, but worth it! The pastries are delicious and beautiful. The menu changes every pop up, but it's exciting to see what all she has to offer. 10/10 recommend! read more
FAVORITE coffee shop in Indianapolis by far! I'm a sucker for their vanilla chai, hot or iced. Their dirty chai and cold brew is wonderful too. Prices are a tad higher than I'm used to but it's worth it for the quality and to shop & support local. Breakfast sandwiches are also great, too. The shop atmosphere is typically quiet, but plenty of people come in for their morning brew to go. Staff is super friendly too. If you're on the NW side of Indy, this is a must! read more
The Baristas were very friendly and helpful. Quiet spot to meet up with a friend or work remotely. When it's warm there are outdoor tables. Got the baked oatmeal with berry compote which was yummy! Tried the seasonal Cinnamon Toast Crunch latte and it was also good! read more

Got a Butter Me Up from their spring drink menu plus an egg salad sandwich...both were great. Even better though was the energy & friendliness of the staff. You can tell they care about the work they do and the service they provide. Didn't get any baked goods on this trip, but they look fabulous. read more

Lulu's is a local warm and cozy coffee shop on 86th St next to Planet Fitness. This has been my favorite place for years to stop in for their delicious coffee and study/work for some focused time. Their drinks are absolutely amazing as are their baked goods. Food items and customer service is pretty neutral - not great, not bad, just functional. The environment is great and tables always have regulars that share their mornings together. They have beautiful seasonal artwork that always makes you smile. This is also a woman-owned business that supports inclusion and other local businesses in the shop. It's a great win-win for this area that doesn't have as many local coffee options because this one is a tasty gem read more

Love coming here! I've now settled on a maple oatmilk latte and the Jefferson with fiery feta subbed for mayo. Both are always delicious. The staff is also incredibly friendly and kind. read more

First impressions - they just mopped so smell wasn't great. Home town feel. Dimly lit and limited seating, but quant. Ordered a hot latte with oatmilk and honey, presentation wasn't awesome but the drink was good. Overall service was average. I will say I didn't have any baked goods, so maybe that's the best part I didn't experience ! read more
