BLTA sandwich was good. A corn and potato chowder was almost sour/ tangy... honestly way too much sour cream in this soup. Not chowder like at all. The grilled cheese was not impressive to look at.

Picked up a cinnamon roll and breakfast tea for a quiet peaceful Saturday morning drive. Note: 16 oz hot tea comes with 2 bags, but I don't like it too strong, so they gave me the 2nd bag on the side to go. It was like a bonus cuppa for later.

The space itself was very clean with minimal decor. I ordered a Gingerbread Iced Latte and a Cheese Danish to have there. I also ordered a sugar cookie pop-tart . The latte came in an adorable cup. The latte itself was fine. Felt like it could use a little more flavor. The cheese danish was just okay. I have had better cheese danishes in the past. I think it would have been better warmed up. I ate the pop-tart when I got home. It was delicious. It had the perfect amount of filling and the crest was a perfect consistency. That definitely made the trip worth it.

The donuts may seem expensive, but then again they are huge and quite filling. This visit we checked out the savory donuts... I was feeling adventurous and must say I did not regret it.

She doesn't usually say that so it was a compliment to Parlor. I didn't eat mine until later in the afternoon. I heated mine up in microwave for 18 seconds. She was right. They are pretty good. They describe them as "layered" doughnuts. I got the powdered kind with raspberry filling. Before arriving I had looked them up on their website and found locations all over, including Texas. So when I read in the store that the business was born in Evansville, Indiana and that Parlor is an Indiana based business, I was very surprised. The dining room is unique. There are sofas and nice chairs to lounge in. A very casual atmosphere in the front half of the room.

On a tip from a lil birdy, I tracked down and visited Arcane Coffee. It's off the beaten path, and…read moreI would have never found it if a coworker didn't mention that THIS was the place to check out for top quality taste, in coffee anyway. I tried the Ethiopian Shegitu. The blend's taste catches you off guard by hitting the back of your throat, is full bodied, and something to sip on and enjoy vs chugging to make it through your work day. The owner, Dudley was patient enough to chat with me over the many blends he has in stock and give me a highlight of the depth of knowledge he has about his beans, and the worldly coffees he offers. This is place is one that those who are especially nerdy about their coffee, should visit. Or at least, check out the not so frantically updated website/ fb biz page to ogle

With the beginning of the Statehouse Market in downtown Indy for 2023, I'm once again discovering…read moresome of the hidden gems and newbies in the realm of food trucks and farmer's market vendors. One such truck is Milkhouse Brew, a Mooresville, Indiana based mobile coffee truck serving locally roasted coffee, specialty beverages, and locally baked confections. Milkhouse Brew is a partnership between cousins Haliena "Hali" Mynatt and Suni Johnsons. Hali also owns Morgan County event venues 5 East and The Barn at Milkhouse Lane. Suni is a longtime photographer in the area. Both women are locals who graduated from Mooresville High School. Milkhouse Brew has a fairly basic menu, or at least did today, including cappuccino, latte, macchiato, americano, chai latte, and hot chocolate with some variations and flavors available. Prices were pretty darn reasonable and all the drinks could be served either hot or cold. They also all came in either 16-ounce and 20-ounce sizes. Prices primarily were in the $3-6 range and for that you get a tasty drink, awesome service, and the thrill of supporting local. I ordered a 20-ounce iced americano. It was served fairly quickly and they seemed to do a steady business today. A food truck offering coffee has been a serious lacking at Statehouse Market and I'm hoping they will return. Coffee is from Timber City Coffee and Tea - an establishment that recently opened up a storefront in Plainfield. Milkhouse also plans to carry Circle Kombucha, though I did not see it available today. They are also exploring options for root beer on tap. I loved my drink, though I did think the ice melted super quickly and that slightly hindered my enjoyment of the drink. I still enjoyed it, however, that does keep me from forking over a 5th star. Who knows? I hope I get to award that in the future as this new kid on the block, women-owned and operated, really gets going. There's much to love here with an appealing truck, friendly service, quality products that are also local, and an overall winning experience. Here's hoping they'll be back at Statehouse Market in the near future. I could not find an actual address, though they are active on social media and do have a website. They seem to be particularly active in the Morgan/Hendricks county area.

Coffee trucks you can never go wrong with. It was a hot day yesterday and the iced vanilla latte I…read moreordered was refreshing. It came out fast also! I like the menu is simple and to the point. Expressos that can be iced or hot, cappuccino, lattes, Americanos, chai lattes are what they offer. Milks - almond, oat, or whole. Caramel, vanilla, and mocha are the options for flavorings. Whipped cream and extra espresso shots are also available. It's a cute truck. I will be keeping my eye out for them again. They have an Instagram to tell you where they will be next. @milkhousebrew

She was friendly and attentive. There is an impressive selection of craft beer. I had a 3 Floyd's Cheer Team double IPA. The beer as full bodied and good. The Pulled Pork Nachos come on kettle potato chips. The nachos are smothered with a creamy beer cheese, pulled park and a whisky flavored bbq sauce. The nachos were good, but didn't knock my socks off. The potato chips make them pretty salty. The coffee maker was so loud that we moved from the bar, but not far enough. It sounded like an old high pitched ship engine. I'm not sure how anyone could read and no one was. Toys, collectibles and shirts are available for sale. I love the concept of a place to play board games or read and have a beer or coffee. I'd recommend for a college date night.
