I don’t understand the less than 4 star reviews on here. I very much enjoyed my brunch, including my cappuccino, here.

I went there on a Saturday afternoon for Brunch and got really sick 3 hours later. This was the only meal I had and I couldn’t stop vomiting and had to go to the ER.. If it helps - i had the Cuban Breakfast with over medium egg and a pistachio latte. Everything tasted fine, a bit too greasy at the bottom of plate, but I didn’t sign up for food poisoning/stomach bug eating here. First time and surely the last time at this restaurant!!!

It was amazing! The breakfast was delicious, the food was beautifully presented, the portions were generous, and my husband and I were also thrilled with the desserts. The waitress was very friendly and asked if we liked everything. We replied that we were 100% satisfied. I would have given it 6 stars, but unfortunately, only 5! Amazing, highly recommended!🙏❤️

The location itself is super cute and definitely gives that “upper suburban class” vibe but the service doesn’t mirror that. The food took forever to come out and the waiter wasn’t much more than an order taker- he didn’t come check on us besides right after the order came out. Mediocre experience at best- and food was ok but not great, especially for the price.

My friend and I had a brunch date here and we were very pleased. The food as amazing, service was prompt and friendly, and we were able to sit outside which was very nice.
I've been going to Patachou for multiple years now. I went to the one in Fishers and the service was horrible. We were sitting there for 45 minutes and our waiter came by our table 4-5 times saying he will be back. We just got sick of waiting around, so we left. Hopefully we can find some better service at the Carmel location because they need to figure the staffing out here.

My recent visit to Café Patachou in Fishers, IN was definitely a mixed bag that ended on a high note. I came in looking for a relaxing solo breakfast, but I got a bit more excitement than I expected right from the moment I walked in.
As I entered, the front area was absolutely packed — at least 15 people standing near the host stand, and not a single visible staff member managing the chaos. I made my way through the crowd only to be physically shoved aside by a group of people trying to cut ahead. Naturally, I stood my ground and let them know that wasn’t going to fly: “Nope. We’re not doing the cutting.”
Turns out they were being paged to be seated — a detail clarified by the host (who I didn’t even realize was the host at first, given the lack of clear staff presence or organization). Her response? “Um… actually, I paged them because their table was ready.”
That’s fair — but when the front of the house is this disorganized and swarming with people, it’s hard to tell who’s who or what the process is. I let her know that clearer structure and staff visibility would help ease confusion. No harm, no foul. Just a funny, chaotic start.
Thankfully, things turned around quickly. A male host took over and smoothed everything out. He acknowledged the situation, understood the confusion, and promptly found me a table. His calm demeanor and quick action made up for the initial awkwardness, and I appreciated that he kept things moving with professionalism and respect.
Once seated, my server was fantastic — super friendly, efficient, and communicative. From the jump, they carried a positive attitude and ensured everything I needed was handled without delay. A+ service.
I ordered the Cobb Salad — no modifications or additions — and was pleasantly surprised. The ingredients tasted fresh and well-balanced. The avocado was perfectly ripe, the greens were crisp, and the combination of red onion, tomato, and bacon all worked harmoniously. It didn’t feel overly heavy but was still filling and flavorful. A solid choice if you’re looking for something light but satisfying.
The outdoor seating area also deserves a mention. The view is charming — a wide-open, pedestrian-friendly patio surrounded by brick buildings and local art. I especially liked the mural that added some color and character to the space. That said, there’s a good chunk of seating that’s exposed to direct sunlight, so timing your visit with some cloud cover or wearing sunglasses would go a long way. On a breezy day with light cloud cover like today, the shade was just right.
Final thoughts: Despite a rocky beginning, Café Patachou made a solid comeback. The food was fresh, the service was friendly, and the vibe — once seated — was relaxed and enjoyable. If the front-of-house operations were a bit more organized, the overall experience would have been five stars. I’d still recommend giving it a try, especially if you enjoy casual brunch spots with good outdoor seating and clean, quality food.

I love Cafe Patachou. This was my first visit to this location. There was a short relaxing walk from parking. The area is adorable! I sat on the patio and had breakfast. The staff was friendly and attentive. I took my coffee to go and got on the swing set out side of the building. I will definitely go back when I go back to Fishers. ❤️
