50 Best Coffee Shops near Speedway

“Always on the hunt for local coffee shops when I'm traveling and Founders did not disappoint! I tried the Oatmeal Cream Pie Chai which was amazing. I hung out for a couple of hours to work and wound up having a Honey Buffalo Chicken Panini and a Sparkplug lotus drink for lunch, both were delicious as well. The vibe from the staff and other customers was very welcoming. As a motorsports fan I appreciated the décor and the variety of merch and handmade items they had available for sale. I will definitely make Founders a must stop next time I am traveling through Indy!“

“Amazing coffee & a wonderful Turkey sandwich on a huge croissant! Very friendly staff!“

“This place was the most amazing Starbucks I’ve been to in a long time. The woman gave me my money back for my drink because none of my E gift cards are working and then gave me half price on my straw toppers because I’ve been trying to collect them for my daughters for Christmas. All they want is the star one unfortunately I haven’t got it yet, but I’ve got multiples of every other one like 3 to 4 of every every other straw topper that’s in the collection so I’m hoping to find more.

Parking: Free parking lot valet parking just like everywhere you go a little busier than normal because the holidays.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible, as is almost every place now!“

“So happy we found Chronic Coffee while we were visiting Indy! Hands Down the cutest and best coffee shop around and quite busy! We ordered The Buddha & The Stash and also ordered Empanadas and a bagel with egg and cream cheese! Everything was so fresh and delicious 🤤
I can see why this little shop is such a big hit!
We also got lucky and got to meet Monika Czinano an Iowa Alum who played with Caitlin Clark and she was very kind to take a photo while waiting for her coffee too!
If you are visiting Indianapolis, also visit Chronic Coffee!“

“Blue mind has creeped up to the top of my favorite coffee shops in Indianapolis! The pricing is reasonable, the vibes are immaculate, music is at a perfect volume, decor is on par, service is friendly and helpful and the lattes and burritos are out of this world! Their ube latte is to die for! I always order a quad shot, Ube latte with oatmilk (hot or Iced, both are great) and my fiancé the same plus the breakfast burritos! Highly recommend!“

“My first time today.. I asked the person working what she would recommend and I ended up getting the ice chocolate covered strawberry coffee. I do have to say, it’s pretty delicious. I love the atmosphere here too. Super cute shop. I’ll be back for sure“

“Staff was so nice and accommodating. The espresso martini was fabulous. The whole vibe is so good there.“

“Cyrus, Masha, Summer, and everyone else work so hard here. Please visit these wonderful folks and get a delicious cup of coffee. They spend more on good quality coffee beans at this location; so much so my friend often gets disappointed by coffee at chain coffee locations.

They are dog friendly and the atmosphere is beautiful for pictures or having meetings. I love going here to study and focus. Everyone is very kind and prices are more than reasonable.“

“You must try the Butterscotch Latte and the Ginger Spice Latte……😋“

“Great option for WFH who need a change of scenery!“

“My wife and I stopped in for a drink while we were visiting Indianapolis. We were staying nearby so it was a quick walk. We sat at the bar and Julian helped us. He was fantastic! The drinks were perfect and we had a delicious pepperoni pizza that hit the spot. I would definitely come back if we are ever back in Indy. Cool little spot!“

“I am having problems with customer service I purchased product on Monday have left two emails with no response I still have not FedEx tracking number yet they took the money out of my account“

“This place is absolutely fantastic, I recommend it to all my friends!! I always get the chai (you can even add a syrup into it to make it taste like a fruit of your choice). You have to try their sandwiches and their macaroons!!! I will definitely go back!!

Parking: It is residents parking but there is enough room for everyone to park to eat!

Kid-friendliness: It’s a beautiful environment and Barbie really makes the world a lot better!!“

“Excellent food that shouldn't be missed. Blink and you'll miss this gem of Eritrean/Ethiopian cuisine.“

“I had the privilege to meet one of the co-owners, he emerged as a gentle giant, he spoke with eloquence and enthusiasm. I developed a heightened sensitivity a decade ago impeding my ability to eat and socialize normally, in his presence the nervousness and discontent went away…I’m not the easiest on the eyes, folks often step to the side when they see me, but not him, haven’t felt that welcomed and received in decades, you can tell he’s a true friend to those who know him! Long live Best Friends Coffee & Bagel“

“Best chocolate chip cookie EVER!!!“

“Provider has it all! if you are a morning person and need some deliciously curated coffee...provider. if you need live music on the weekends...provider. If you need delicious cocktails....provider. If you need delicious food ...provider. If you need a place with cool events.....provider. If you're riding your bike down the mono and need a stop to chill....provider. Need I say more?

“My expectations were high because the rating was so high but I don’t think that way?!! the barista was so unpleasant and the coffee was horribly made I was expecting a strong coffee not water coffee!!“

“My favorite cafe of all time. I really liked the old location by the river but times change.

This is everything a cafe should be. Great espresso, great milk drinks, great pastries, friendly people. The best cappuccinos I've ever had have come from here.

No outside seating but there are lots of windows. I've been here a thousand times and I will come back a thousand more.“

“Yesterday I was in with my 4 year old son and unfortunately lost my car keys. I couldn’t find them anywhere and two employees (a guy and girl- I did not get their names) were extremely helpful. They were helping me look everywhere, even in the trash. The guy got a phone charger from his car since of course my phone died before I could call for help. He brought my son a Starbucks ornament and told him he could put it on our tree this year. They also gave my son a cake pop. Another guest who was sitting there offered his iPad with Disney + pulled up while we were waiting for family to bring me my spare and other guests also started helping look. I never ended up finding my car keys but the staff and guests truly made it the best situation in a bad situation. Your staff reminded me kind people still exist. :)“

“Great coffee, great service, and great location! Relaxing atmosphere❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“I’ll admit that I’m not a well versed coffee or tea drinker, at all but I wanted to give tea a try on this snowy day. I had the pleasure of meeting the barista, Annabelle, who recommended a warm tea that I actually really enjoyed! She was very welcoming, conversational and recommended how long I should steep the tea for because I had no clue. Wonderful experience all around and the wood & vintage feel all contributed to this great experience. Thanks Annabelle!“

“I love Biggby. I love that the owners take care of their people and that the people they hire are fun, interesting and receptive. I wish they had a larger menu, but their coffee is always on point and they give coupons often. I’ve only had a negative experience maybe twice the entire time I’ve gone here, and it wasn’t enough to rule out coming back.The frozen Mocha Mocha latte is amazing.“

“Rabble coffee is a chill neighborhood gem on the near eastside of Indy with great vegan options and no up-charge for vegan milks! All the syrups foe the coffees are handmade onsite and they are less sweet than other places. Plus, the drink combos are genius! I make it a point to try every drink special every month. Staff is amazing and this is a safe place for LGBTQIA community members.“

“The ambiance is unmatched & THE TEA! I had to buy the tin so I could experience it at home too. Oh and the customer service, sheesh. They sure know how to make a girl feel special. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🙌🏾“

“Thank you so much for delivering coffee for the city! It’s delivery, it’s appreciated and I hope we can keep you and your team going. I got mine last night and I am so thankful.“

“Literally OBSESSED with all of the blenders and iced coffees! All of the workers are so sweet and I go just about every single day (so guilty of this)! Highly recommend stopping by for a yummy drink!“

“First time here and we will be back! Tried the tandoori vegetable momos and a veggie wrap with some iced chai. It was so very delicious!!! The staff greeted us with smiles which made us feel comfortable since it was a totally new experience. Very glad to spend our money here.“

“Keto doughnuts are fantastic!! A little tip I’ve learned about keto baked goods, is to put them in the refrigerator before eating them. Texture is way better when cold. I will be back🤗“

“While staying at a nearby Airbnb, it was recommended to try out the Neidhammer coffee shop. We went over one morning and were pleasantly surprised. There was a lot of seating and the tables were all wired for electricity. There was a constant stream of customers, some taking it to go and others staying. We tried the sweet crepes and they were delicious. They hand made the crepes right in front of you. I had the Highland which was bananas and nutellla or berries – I had Nutella. It was the smaller size but plenty. My daughter had the Spades Park which had cheesecake filling and Nutella. Both were delicious. We also had a drip coffee and Nutella latte and both were awesome. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area or maybe you need to make a trip to the area!“
