Great local spot in a historic building, indoor and outdoor seating right off the Monon.

While pricey, the coffee is remarkable and everything is made with care. Because I know some of the baristas, this place holds a special place in my heart. Internet is not great if you're planning to work for a bit, but I kind of love that - keeps the space conversational. The patio outdoors is absolutely wonderful. Get the vegan breakfast sandwich. The pepper jelly will change your life!! (And always a croissant.)

Love Provider! Amazing coffee! Price well! Baristas know there stuff! Great place to enjoy top shelf coffee and a great conversation!

Cute place. Neat "old factory" atmosphere with a nice olfactory experience. Unfortunately, no sugar-free syrups for their drinks, and limited indoor seating. They have a really nice patio, but it's no help on a cold day.

Very nice coffee shop, and they know their way around classics coffee drinks, which is something I really appreciate. I was a little irritated with them still enforcing a mandatory mask mandate. COVID is over. It's time to get over it.

Super chill vibes with delicious breakfast sandwich! I ordered the breakfast biscuit and it came as a bagel, but it was still delicious. Realizing this is a coffee place, but was disappointed at the lack of tea options. I opted for the regular, iced black tea. It was good, but I would have preferred an iced chai option. They have a chai but are only able to serve it hot. Great place to enjoy fresh air and sunshine on the patio.

Such a nice coffee shop. They offer a wide variety of drinks and food items!! They have outdoor seating and indoor seating. The inside is very cozy with lots of plants which makes the space feel so clean and refreshing. They have a parking lot. They are also right next to the monon!

This place was a little overpriced for my taste. Definitely not somewhere I would regularly go to because I spent almost $20 on my food/drink. That being said I can honestly say that my sandwich was one of the best I've ever tasted and so was my latte. It was almost worth the price. It was a little chilly because of the glass wall but i'm excited to come back here in the summer when it's warmer!!

All right, where do I even start? When I realized that I hadn't written interview for the rider yet I honestly was quite concerned. I've been sipping on some delicious Provider lattes, specifically to pistachio latte for quite a while so I'm not quite sure why I forgot to leave a review. The founders of this joint have various other coffee shops throughout the city so if you see a menu at another coffee shop with looks quite similar well I'm just about guaranteeing you that it's owned by the same. Anyways enough about that let's get on to the basics, the food. Honestly I love their lattes. I've honestly say they put quite a bit of crafted care into every cup which is refreshing because nowadays it seems like many shops don't put quite the love into their lattes like provider. They've got some free parking in there a lot, however I would caution you to be aware that a few of the spots are reserved for other businesses located nearby. Providers serves cocktails leave meeting as well however I have not yet had that experience. They've also got free Wi-Fi and lots of sitting upstairs that often time is reserved for larger events but I highly recommend you soak in the audience provider as at one point in time this was quite a distressed and building that I needed lots of work. There is a vegan options on the menu and they have something that I'm certain you can find something to enjoy. Oh and they've got a perfect spot for those of you that like to bike around the city so go ahead and ride your bike here Park it and grab a cup of Java.

I previously would have given 5 stars. I love their coffee (lattes are incredible), the vibe, and that it's in my neighborhood. However, since a few weeks ago, they have changed some things up. Previously, I could justify a $7 latte because the tip was included. This seems to have changed. Now, with the new Toast system, it elicits a tip. At first, a few weeks ago, I thought this was an error. However, today there was a tip jar sitting on the counter as well. This is Indianapolis. Lattes are not $7 even when they are this delicious. This is probably going to be my last tasty pistachio latte for a while. Sad you changed, Provider!

Coffee is fine, but it’s getting really expensive. The original reasoning was so there was no need to ask for tips anymore. Now, it’s just more expensive with option for tip still. Then I would come for the convenience and points, and all my points were lost, and the gal at the register didn’t know how to use system for anything. I do love your coffee but don’t think I will come anymore because you guys don’t appreciate the business with your growth. Also, the guy does a great job making the food with a mask, but wears a belly shirt? Seems counter intuitive…

Completely changed menu and only have 1 vegan breakfast sandwich after having a completely vegan menu. Really unfortunate since I used to love coming here. Also, they don't offer gluten free bread for the sandwiches anymore and they used to have Native Bread for them. They have a gluten free bagel but I was told I couldn't get it for a sandwich. Only with a smear. Makes no sense. Great coffee but won't plan to eat here anymore.

This was a spot that I wanted to check out because I saw some pictures on Instagram. Provider is located in the same building as Tinker Coffee! There's a private parking lot and I was able to find a spot. The coffee shop is not that big but they have adequate seating. I was able to find seating at the bar. I went on a Saturday afternoon so I'm not sure how busy it usually is or what their peak hours are. I was facing the cute "Nice Weather" neon sign. The coffee shop has nice natural lighting. I ordered a hot Miel latte (which is seasonal). All of the lattes are $7 (which is on the pricier side in my opinion). I enjoyed my latte but it was on the sweeter side. It was also garnished with something - I'm not really sure what.... I'm moderately allergic to nuts and it seemed like maybe my latte might have been garnished with some kind of nut? I ended up not finishing the latte because it was a lot (oz wise) and a little too sweet for me. Overall, I would definitely come back and try something else! I enjoyed the vibes and ambiance.

I really enjoyed going to Provider. It's a nice looking place and I love anywhere I can find Tinker Coffee. I got the breakfast sandwich and that was great as well. Be careful parking. This place is so busy it fills up fast and some spots are reserved for the tech company only in this space and employees told me they will tow your car. My only gripe is they are TOO popular sometimes (or maybe I just have bad luck! Trying to find parking can be tricky and once I walked in and 20 ppl were standing in line so I nope'd out of there. Overall I like it and hope to actually sit and drink coffee and hang out there. It could easily be 5-star territory except my gripes.

Cute little place with plenty of parking. Nice place to get away and work. I had an americano, which was pretty good. Not the best I've ever had, but good nonetheless.
