Everyone is so friendly here and they're speedy with making your drinks. They do offer a few pastries, but there is no kitchen so don't get confused... you go for the coffee (or tea or hot chocolate). I almost always order a Samoas latte which is exactly what you think. And absolutely delicious! I have recently ventured to order the Caramel Turtle and I would also highly recommend it. I like to set up here with my laptop and knock out work, but this would also be a great spot to catch up with a friend. There's a variety of seating and great wifi, perfect for all occasions. And while you're here, look at the displayed art. Most of it is for sale and I have found some really cool artists and pieces because of this local spot.

From the second that you walk up to Scooter's, you know that you stumbled across something special!…read moreEveryone is friendly and helpful. You couldn't ask for a better place to start off your day at. Their stores are always small, modern, and sleek with limited seating available. So, plan to get it to go. They are also passionate about what they do. So, get ready for a tasty treat. I always get the blended mocha, a small coffee with cream, and an iced latte. My favorite drink is the blended mocha. From the first sip to the last drip. I always savor every last sip of that delicious drink. It's creamy, chocolaty, and has a bold coffee flavor! Topped with delicious whipped cream. Also, I love taking home a cup of coffee for the next day. Trust me when I say that this coffee is incredible! It's nutty, with notes of cocoa, cocoa nibs, toasted almond, vanilla, and rich caramel notes. I can't suggest it enough! I always get the large iced latte with whole milk. That drink is pure perfection! And, I love the decaf Americano with cream! So, if you're looking for a new place to go for an excellent coffee! Come here! You won't regret it.

I got my usual iced coffee and thought it was just fine. I couldn't quite put my finger on the after taste. Almost a bit smoky or noticeable roasted flavor.

I tried the Iced Spotted Owl and really enjoyed it--definitely on the sweeter side, but as a hazelnut fan, it hit the spot. The lemon coffee cake bites were a great add-on. Not too heavy, just the right portion for a quick treat alongside a drink. Huge bonus for me: they have a drive-thru, which makes it super convenient when you're on the go. The service was also great: friendly, quick, and made the whole experience even better. And extra points for being dog-friendly! Their pup cup was huge and such a fun surprise. Always love seeing places go the extra mile for customers with pups.

It was fine and easy to drink but not much smooth balance I've had with other matcha like Eleventh House in my hometown or Rabble's incredible Lawnmower doing watermelon with the green tea. Downtown Indianapolis sure does spoil! Would do coffee next time, the Dubai latte I had at Cook St seems the winter way.

It's located across the street from a parking lot for the Metra rail system. The interior has a fun flair that is inviting, and there is seating where one can sip a cup of coffee while reading or having a conversation with a friend if they aren't grabbing one to go. I've been to The Mug multiple times now. The staff is always friendly and helpful with answering questions. Especially for the coffee ignorant such as myself. I drink coffee, but I couldn't tell you what the different styles are as usually I just make a cup of regular black coffee at home. When I go out to buy coffee I want something I can't make at home. I've had multiple coffees here over the last month and everyone was delicious. Whether it was the Gingerbread Eggnog Latte, a Blueberry Crisp Latte, or the Dulce de leche, they were all hot and delicious. The Mug is better than the large chains that seem to have overrun the country. I know they have made a repeat customer out of me.

It has a comfortable local coffee shop feel rather than feeling like a typical chain. The coffee was good and thoughtfully made. You can tell they put care into their drinks, and the quality was consistent. The menu had a nice variety of options, making it easy to find something whether you prefer classic coffee drinks or something a little different. Service was friendly and the overall experience was enjoyable. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that while everything was good, I didn't have a single drink or item that completely stood out as unforgettable.

Folks are nice and seems like they were quite happy doing what they do! I highly recommend if you're in the area.
