We walked in right at closing on a Saturday, the guys could have EASILY been rude or curt with us and they were not. They were clearly almost done cleaning up and ready to go and the two nice gentlemen that were there made us two glorious complex drinks with a smile and a kind heart. This was a great first experience, and even though we live no where close, they made this a destination that we will want to return to FOR SURE. Thank You Guys! Awesome Job!
We love looking for local coffee shops while traveling. Calvin and Fletcher’s did not disappoint. Welcomed by a friendly face and coffee beyond delish! Enjoyed chatting it up! Thanks for making our morning! We will see you again!
After a terrible experience at Milktooth we found this little gem near Bluebeard (an Indy favorite!). The staff were wonderful, kind, and hard working. We enjoyed their coffee and had a great time sitting out on the patio. If you're in the area, make sure you give Calvin Fletcher's a visit.
Best coffee in town hands down. The atmosphere is very chill and the staff is laid back. They make your coffee/tea and other drinks at their pace and it keeps the quality high. They also have small food items, wifi, games, and art to keep you occupied while you enjoy your beverage.
Nice location to have coffee with friends.
Great seating options with plenty of outlets. Sweet music playlist. Friendly and smiley staff who are quick to clean tables after departure. Great teas. Quality wifi. Love it
Loved my macchiato and crossiant. I'll be back to try other things. :)
Wonderful and niche coffee shop. We went there every day we were in Indy. Very friendly staff and inclusive nature. Highly recommend a visit if you love complex coffee options. You may be overwhelmed if you are not a "coffee person".
Today I had one of the best cups of coffee I ever had at this place. A medium roast pour-over. Very friendly and knowledgable service and nice airy atmosphere, too.
Great spot for coffee just down the street. Though to be honest I don't think I've ever tried the coffee. I am super picky with chai tea lattes and they made one of the best I've had. I look forward to trying other items on their drink menu! The place itself has a great atmosphere if you're there to catch up on homework or simply get out of the cold with a warm drink. Lots of local artwork decorate the walls which are for sale if you see something you want to take home. Staff is always very friendly and gets your coffee out as soon as possible. I've had the line get pretty long and it's tough to stay patient! I think it's awesome they donate their tips to local charity work. They just need the option to tip if you pay with a card because I never carry cash on me. Stop by if you are looking to try something new.
Smooth coffee and a quant place to relax and enjoy great conversation, I will be back!
Excellent coffee and atmosphere.
Really great coffee! I hate paying high price for artisan coffee, but this place is changing my mind!
Great local coffee shop with a good heart. There is plenty of various seating options. Groups, couches, tables. The coffee is really good too, I would just get what ever they have on drip because it is so good!
I immediately walked up and friendly patron inquired why I seemed nervous. I explained I was looking for a dog friendly coffee place for my morning off and since the outdoor seating didn't seem to have a server I was out of luck. He then offered to watch my dog for me but told me dogs are welcome inside to order and eat. The experience just got better from there. Shelia was informative and helpful in ordering, atmosphere was great and other patrons were extremely laid back and friendly (most importantly accepting and welcoming of my dog). Hidden gem I had not discovered and will 100% be making a return. DISCLAIMLER: this was a Wednesday morning.
Amazing vibe, amazing mission, amazing coffee. Go for the rare beans and the delightful drinks. Stay for the good vibes, the live music, and all the progress.
I visited this place for the first time today when meeting a friend for a business coffee chat. The place was phenomenal, the food and café latte were delicious, and the ambience superb!!! I will definitely return!
Visiting Indy from Austin and luckily happened upon this place. Quite literally one of the best cappuccinos of my life. Awesome atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff.
Baristas are so welcoming and charming! I got an amazing latte here.
Calvin Fletcher's is one of my favorite places in the city. Even though I don't get to visit as often as I'd like, it's the kind of place where they always make you feel like a regular!
Good coffee, very good pastry from circle center sweets, and classic coffeehouse ambiance.
Quaint little coffee shop. Great little neighborhood.
Appropriate din for a conversation thoughtful or funny over delicious coffee. Street parking on Virginia avenue is minimal bit some side street available. Better yet, walk or ride along the cultural trail which runs right out front!
Amazing in-house roasted coffee in a nice setting, though a little heavy on the hipster "culture".
This place is awesome. The coffee is fantastic and the price for a quality pour over is a steal. They source their beans locally and are in the process of getting their own roaster. In my opinion, this is the best spot for third wave coffee in Indianapolis. The place has a lot of character and was busy every time I went. There is a lot of space inside to grab a spot and relax or get work done. The staff was friendly and knew their stuff.
Good coffee. A comfortable place to meet a friend or read a book.
This place is so great! My cousin and I were searching for a nice environment to study and be productive and we found this spot. Calvin's is really spacious once you get inside and has plenty of outlets. Everything seems very clean and organized, including the bathrooms. I would definitely recommend this place :)
You can get good coffee in a lot of places in my opinion Starbucks is not one of them however the coffee is not the reason to go to Calvin Fletcher's even though the coffee is very good the real reason to go to Calvin Fletcher's is the people both of the people who work there and the people who patronize the place just make your day better
Neighborhood mainstay coffee shop with the friendliest baristas and their own roasted beans.
Met the owner, very friendly :) Nice art work up in the back hallway
This is my favorite spot for java, meetings, pumpkin bars and almond croissants. The atmosphere is eclectic complete with smiles and warm greetings. Never feels rushed or hectic even when there's a crowd. EVERYONE is welcome.
Love that place, awesome!
Great cup of coffee with a neighborhood chaser.
The go-to spot on Virginia Ave to hang and get some work done.
Very good Chai
Great staff! Great location! Great drinks! Super cool atmosphere. Come check them out!
A bright spot in my day...
atmosphere, plenty of seating, tons of drink options for coffee and tea lovers alike, and free WiFi! So far this is the place I've been to that is probably the best for getting work done for a few hours. I got the house iced coffee which is not usually my type of drink but I gotta say I genuinely loved it. My partner tried the Colombia Victor Gutierra coffee which he also enjoyed immensely
Wonderful. Coffee with the aroma of pure freshly roasted beans. My experience was worth many returns. People spoke to me. Yes this was fun. Sit inside or outside to enjoy the courtyard. Reminded me of a coffee restaurant in Paris with a courtyard. Do park nearby and walk.
Best cup of drip I've had in a VERY long time. Their house blend is fantastic.
I have been here multiple times. Calvin Fletcher is in a great location on Virginia Ave accessible to both Fletcher Place and Fountain square and wonderful atmosphere! The place itself is great. That being said the coffee is terrible. There I said it, it's over-roasted highly acidic (burnt coffee) taste that no amount of cream and sugar can mask. The creamer options aren't great either. I must visit this coffee shop, I only order tea now.
This is the kind of café you want to visit every day, while it's raining, when it's sunny, or just whenever you need a comfortable place to be and have some coffee. Excellent espresso, wide selection of traditional and sweet coffee drinks, bites of food and sweets, plenty of outlets for working—this place has it all. Indianapolis' most perfect café in my opinion and the staff is always helpful and nice. My favorite combination—mocha in a ceramic mug with a doppio on the side. To top it off, they do a ton of community work by donating tips to charity. This place makes me feel warm and fuzzy!
They roast their own beans and have supplied Fountain Sq & Fletcher Place for many years with friendly service. Good coffee, better people! A very comfortable and lively coffee shop.
Best coffee house I've ever visited. Their chai latte is AMAZING!!! Love the staff - shout out to Jeff, Doug, and Sheila.
Great coffee, cozy atmosphere, really friendly staff. The brief tour of their roastery was appreciated!
Cute spot
My first time there, I felt right at home. The staff was so sweet, almost like family. The coffee and scone were absolutely perfect and the beans definitely weren't burned! The atmosphere had it all! There were kids, meetings, people working on laptops, and it was big enough, no one was disrupting anyone else. Amazing coffeehouse!
Great place to catch up with friends, friendly people
Gem...that isn't hidden. Plenty of people watching in this Fountain Sq ☕ shop!!!
We loved it. They were slow because there was a big rush due to an Easter egg hunt. Staff was very kind though. My Masala Latte was great, just what I expected. Was surprised to see a kid sized table and toys! My kids wanted to stay and hang out! I think it would be a good choice for breakfast with kids.
Amazing coffee
Wonderful drinks and food. Mostly baked goods, but some wraps/sandwiches. A little loud the few times I've been there, but not unbearable. One of the few places I'll recommend people go for local coffee.
I have had a variety of drinks; from single origin espresso to fully-laden, milked up espresso-based beverages and chai drinks. I have never been disappointed and appreciative both the in-house roasting and the frequent changes in the single origin menu.
They close a bit too early for me but great tasting coffee.
Very friendly place. Coffee was standard, nothing amazing. I assume people go here for the atmosphere more
Good coffee, good service, and an overall good environment.
Cozy place with a great staff.
Nice selection of coffee and friendly staff
The dirty chai was delicious!
Super tasty coffee, place and service
Excellent coffee with some interesting variations on standard drinks
My 4 year old daughter had a day off school. She and I headed downtown to fountain square for some fun. We were walking by Calvin Fletcher'a and my daughter said, "you like coffee and you haven't been here. We should go in." Well, how can I argue with that logic. The coffee shop felt roomy, yet cozy. The staff was so fun to be around. They seemed to really like working there. It is a good location and I really liked the Fletcher Place Blend coffee. Looking forward to another trip here.
Great coffee. Friendly service. Inviting environment!
An urban oasis in Indy. Beautiful shaded patio. Creamiest cappuccinos you can hope for round here. Just perfect.
A place where they know how to brew a cup of Coffee. So many other places serve charred beans that are salvaged by syrup, sweetener, and foamy designs. Definitely worth a visit when you have time to savor a cup of coffee.
Absolutely perfect. Right amount of noise - the usual background murmur balanced against quiet non-intrusive music - functional seating with plenty of room to work or hang out. Staff were friendly, quick, and the drinks are amazing. Will be back often!
Very good cappuccino! Overall quite a nice place, roomy and lively on Saturday morning.
Always a great experience when I visit Fletcher house Coffee!
Great atmosphere, excellent service, and beautiful lattes!
Amazing experience! Trendy decor, comfortable environment, and welcoming staff. The chai latte was the best I ever had! Also had the parfait which was delicious. Worth the trip off the highway for something other than Starbucks. A must see for anyone traveling and I'm sure a great regular spot for locals as well.
Along with the great coffee, I love the vibe here. It’s very relaxed and creative. I can come here to hang out with friends, bring my laptop to work or have a meeting with colleagues. Plus the people are so friendly.
One of my favorite places in Indy to do work, meet someone or just relax. Great coffee selection, nice atmosphere and friendly employees. I love it here!
Loved the environment. Great place to get coffee and do some work
Two things I like about this place: 1. It's cheap. A cappuccino costs about half of a cappuccino at Milk tooth. 2. Space. The place is huge for a coffee shop. Something that is nice in a place where people like to post up for hours on end. The coffee itself is good but nothing necessarily unique or outstanding. The staff is friendly and somewhat helpful. I enjoy hanging our here!
This is THE place for coffee. Great people, great coffee, and a perfect coffee house environment.
Great coffee and pastries, would highly recommend to anyone.
Disappointed in the lack of latte art but the smoothness of the latte made up for that. Awesome location with nice places to eat nearby. Excellent space as well, plenty of seating with a nice open space. Parking might be a bit of a pickle but having to walk a bit to get here will be well worth it.
Great space and drinks. One of the best coffee shops in Indy. Distinct neighborhood feel.
Stopped in for a dirty chai tea with my sister and it was the absolute best I've ever had. Nothing else even comes close. It was the perfect amount of spice, sweet, and espresso! I would definitely recommend. My husband got a coconut hot chocolate which I also tried and it was fantastic. We get t our drinks to go but I wish we would have stayed. The atmosphere was so cozy and the local art hung all about made it a unique experience.
Great coffee at a relaxed location
There are a lot of different kinds of brews here. Good staff.
The best coffee I've had in a long time
There are so many great things to say about Calvin Flethcers that I don't know where to begin. The customer service is the level you only dream of from a local coffee shop. The coffee and espresso drinks are phenomenal. A true staple in the community. Really, really awesome employees and owners!
I love this coffee shop!!! I live downtown, so it's a bit out of the way for me, but I would come here everyday if I could. The coffee is delicious, the outdoor and indoor seating is great, and people who work here are the best. I especially have great experiences with Andreas. He is so nice and always strikes up nice conversations with me. Would recommend to anyone in Indy!
Really good coffee, cool environment, great staff.
Coffee is amazing! And awesome area for kids with books and toys!
Non-profit coffee shop, dog-friendly, good brews, friendly service, comfortable atmosphere
Trust me, there's no better dirty chai than the one you will find here. The flavours are blended to perfection ❤! Staff is friendly and there's plenty of space to sit. One can borrow games or books. Food options are a bit limited but locally sourced
Great place to meet for coffee. Friendly and approachable staff.
Excellent coffee spot. Great place to hang out on your laptop to relax or work. Customer service is the best I've ever been given. I only go there once a month or so (not a big coffee drinker) but they always remember me. This place was rated as the best coffee shop in Indiana by the USA today.
Coffee in a real mug... Yes please. I was also pleasantly surprised when I found a deck of Esperanto flash cards on the bookshelf. Saluton amokoj!
Very relaxing atmosphere. I get the most work done here out of all the coffee shops I frequent. Update: Sad to learn they no longer accept pets.
Lovely atmosphere, incredible coffee and reliable internet! What else could you ask for?
It is a nice, laid back relaxing place to get a cup of coffee. Friendly staff and good coffee and pastries.
One of the best cafe spots in Downtown Indy great service.
There was a lot of intimate and comfortable seating to choose from, nice atmosphere, decent music. Excellent choice for organic coffee.
Came over for Indy weekend from Australia. Best coffee in Indianapolis!!
Always a great place to visit. I try to find my way here weekly to get caught up on paperwork/emails. Great access to the interstate and their coffee is the best in the area IMO. The owners are great with their clients and I've never not seen them smiling. See you next week
Great atmosphere, awesome serving staff, cultured decor, plenty of places for charging, good place for studying, comfortable seating and plenty of places to sit. Sidenote: I thought it was very kind of the establishment to allow the homeless man to sit inside on a chair out of the cold weather outside and just relax.
Delicious rotating coffee selection with a friendly staff. Good variety of croissants and other small food items. 10/10 will visit again
So gross! Barista put her finger in my pour over. When I questioned her about it, she told me she had washed her hands (the hands I had seen her run through her hair and scratch her mouth) and that they have to stick their finger in ALL pour overs. What?? She offered to let me watch her wash her hands and make me another. No thank you Hepatitis B! I took the coffee, walked out and threw it away. Worth wasting $4 just to get out of there immediately.
My favorite (non-diner style) coffee spot in Indy! After a few years of stopping in CF's from time to time when in Fountain Square, I've never gotten less than excellent service and exceptional beverages, from iced mocha to cappuccino. Good vibe too. Plenty of seats, from comfort chairs to table seating. A nice place to read, write, or chat. Free wi-fi and a decent amount of plug-ins. Unisex bathrooms. Also close to a bunch of other cool spots.
One of the three best coffee shops in Indy. Well made drinks in an open and friendly vibe. Everyone is so nice.
Perfect coffee spot to go to no matter what you are in for. Catch up with an old friend, sit aside and work on your next project, or just enjoy the atmosphere of the buzzing customers around you.
Fresh coffee, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere make this my favorite café in Indianapolis. For those interested, they sell bags of coffee in ground and whole bean form. Also, they have a limited, daily supply of breakfast foods, which are rather affordable and tasty, too. Parking is a pain, but that's not their fault. They also have free WiFi for their customers. I have been there at least 22 times, and thankfully, every visit has been pleasant. Enjoy your coffee!
Cozy neighborhood cafe. The best coffee shop on the southeast side.
Great coffee selection, fun artwork and decor, and a fantastic, calm ambience. Also a pretty large place with a good amount of seating considering how small it appears from the outside. Also has a small book and game selection. Only thing lacking is some outside seating for the summer.
Amazing drinks artistically prepared. The pastries are fresh and tasty. The decor is artsy. Best of all, the staff is friendly and obviously takes pride in their work.
Favorite coffee in Indy. We take our two little guys in with us, and they have some toys to play with and a nice corner to hang out in. Pastries are great. We buy whole bean coffee to take home, as well.
Calm, fun environment. Great coffee and an excellent croissant!
There isn't a better neighborhood coffee shop on Earth.
Awesome place! Can’t wait to come back! I got the Local Special: Magic. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Nice relaxing place with good coffee and lots of comfy places to sit and read!
I have been driving by this coffee shop for a long time before finally deciding to make a stop just recently. And I can't believe I didn't try it before then. I ordered one of their best-selling espresso and it was definitely the best date I had. Their baristas really know to brew a good cup. Their place was ultraclean and cozy which is really perfect for a coffee time. Plus, they have the most considerate workers ever. They put the customers needs in top list priority. And now, I dare to say that this is my new go to coffee shop.
Great place to do work, chill, have a conversation, and oh yeah, have a smooth cup of locally brewed coffee (or the Indian spiced tea). :)
Not sure what the fuss is about in rating this place. Food was average and coffee was fine, yet nothing spectacular. As a traveler I don't think the trek out of town was well rewarded. Quiet vibe though, nice to sit to read or work.
They have amazing coffee and I love the coffee mugs, cute mugs, and the decorative plates
Great atmosphere and staff. Plus profits get donated to community development
Coffee version of Cheers. Love this place. Great coffee
Very nice cappucino. Not cheap but nice area and in downtown
Cool hipster joint. They have art and books. Ceramic mug option is always nice.
Great local coffee shop nestled into the north end of fountain square. Lots of space for groups meet-ups, working solo or just reading something from their bookshelves. Friendly staff, they were so helpful!
Great coffee & snacks, always a friendly environment that is quiet enough to get work done but also spacious enough for people to meet and have conversations
Quickly became my new go to coffee spot after I first tried it. Consistently delicious.
Friendly staff and great environment!
Very pleasant staff + vegan options!
Update: NOT DOG FRIENDLY. service animals are allowed but no others. I know they have decent coffee but these other reviews are no longer accurate.
Favorite place in the Fletcher Place / Fountain Square area to grab a coffee. Good options for drip or espresso drinks. Also, much bigger on the inside than it appears from the street outside so there's plenty of space to find a place to sit.
Has breakfast here on a Monday and everything was gooooood! I had the scramble of the day...pesto, spinach, roasted tomatoes, feta and onions...with a substitution of potatoes ($1.50) instead of salad or fruit. The others with me had the Indiana Benedict (with homemade sausage patty) and French toast
Really nice coffee shop and friendly staff. Coffee was phenomenal and I really like the fact that there is free parking along the street. Makes for a productive day
Great place to meet up with friends. It's also great two person meetings. Coffee is good and the atmosphere is great and trendy.
Great place to stop in Indy for a great atmosphere and some coffee. Good place to get some work done, and wonderful staff!
The place is staffed by literally the most friendly people and they have quite a few vegan options (and oat milk
Stopped in after Amelia's to check out the place. Was heading out of town for Thanksgiving, and wanted to grab a few local goods to bring to family. The barista was very helpful, and the Vietnamese coffee they made me was very good.
Very good coffee. Very fair prices. Cool atmosphere. The people here are working hard to make Indianapolis a fun and inclusive city. My one complaint: It's often quite chilly inside.
always welcoming, kind, and of course - good coffee and solid pastries! Be sure to leave a tip to support the organization of the month!
Great service; fun atmosphere.
Excellent home-roasted coffee, outstanding service, lively vibe. The place was packed, but didn't feel overwhelmed. Cool that it's a nonprofit that donates it's profits to other local nonprofits.
Eclectic decor, good meeting/co-working space. Profits got to charities. Great spice tea.
Sweet staff
This coffee is life changing. In all seriousness, you've never had espresso until you have one from Calvin Fletcher's. They have a fun atmosphere with lots of seating, books, and games going for them as well. But that espresso... Get some!
This is another coffee shop in Indy that I want to love, but that's missing the mark just a little bit. While the people and environment are pretty awesome, the coffee and food miss the mark a little bit. As is my usual, I decided to go with the standard drip coffee. Yes it's a little boring, but it's usually predictable and reliable. Unfortunately the beans were either over-roasted or over-extracted resulting in a pretty strong but unbalanced cup of coffee. I wish that was all, but the food didn't fare much better. I'm also a fiend for a good breakfast sandwich, and so I was really excited to find one on their menu for under $3.00. My excitement wore of pretty quickly though when they delivered the food, as it was most certainly a microwave breakfast sandwich (from my vast knowledge of breakfast sandwiches I believe it to be of the Jimmy Dean variety). So here's the rub. Both the food and coffee left something to be desired, but for some reason I still plan on going back. There's something about the atmosphere that I really loved. I'm hopeful that they will figure everything else out in time.
Great coffee.
A great place to grab some coffee and get your work done. Also good for small groups or for a small meetup. Has a good collection of books and paintings. The coffee is good, but can be improved upon. This place is usually crowded in the evenings. Check out their monthly specials, they are usually good. And if you are hungry, they have some good sandwich options.
Love this place! Outstanding customer service and best baristas in making iced Vietnamese coffee. ☕️
Hands down the Best coffee shop in the city! Love it! Great vibe, hang out, etc. Great food and drink- the veggie burrito and almond croissant are amazing!
Excellent coffee. Regular coffee is tasty and the espresso has great texture and crema as well as flavor beyond burnt bitter sludge!! Also have some very nice simple foods to choose from. Great atmosphere and comfortable space. The staff are terrifically friendly. Also a plus that the profits go to charities :) Will be stopping in here next time I'm through Indy
The most incredible java joint I've had the pleasure.. dynamite place and a seriously killer coffee ed for me!
