I’m annoyed I didn’t know about helm until recently despite living nearby for a while. The space itself is a great mix of a cool/hip industrial vibe while still being bright and cozy.

The folks here clearly know coffee considering Justin just won the National Brewers Cup, but the vibe isn’t snobby at all and is generally a very welcoming place. Love the coffee here and hope to be back more!

Had a seasonal Gingerbread latte and it was delicious. Great coffee and friendly service. Went on a Sunday and it was very busy, not much seating.

Wow this was amazing, surprise street side building right on my way to a gig, dipped in right in time before they closed, I found a fun loving barista cleaning up and eventually putting together my ube latte. Loved the discount for my brought in cup, it is good enough on tables and couches but my back would be sore after long crouching to my laptop. I loved the espresso and ube, always my go to when it appears on a menu. Can definitely recommend!

This place is a beautiful stop, super nice employees and wonderful atmosphere if you're into shoegaze punk, ube lattes, and inclusivity. Easy parking too!

Their cappuccino is on point. They roast their own beans. The owner is also very kind

What an INCREDIBLE ube latte. Yes it’s expensive, and you can taste why! It’s honestly exquisite! Treat yourself!

Justin was efficient with the ordering and brewing of the drinks. I also love when I can make my lattes more of a cafe au lait and he delivered!

Beverages were quite good, tried both Ube and Maple lattes. Pretty chill environment and relaxing place to be. Prices were a bit higher than expected considering the size ($7.50 per latte)

My first time here. It is a delightful shop. I got an iced latte and it is wonderful. I hope to make it a regular stop.

I live 15+ minutes away from Helm, they heat up my thermos so I can have very hot coffee at home.

Highly recommend if you’re looking for a locally roasted coffee place that goes the extra mile! Parking on left side of building and street side. Chill atmosphere and walking distance from Garfield Park Conservatory.

Best coffee! Small batch coffee, mindfully and expertly roasted. We travel from out of town for this! And they have a mail subscription option for roast coffee. The coffee shop is inviting and inclusive. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Can't wait to go back.

This coffee shop is amazing! Great place to work during the day- bright and welcoming. The coffee is so good and the staff and kind and helpful. Also they have the best pint ice cream!

Great atmosphere and style. Friendly staff. My Americano was tasty! Looks like they’ve started roasting their own beans which is always a great sign! Will visit again when I’m back in Indy!
