Hubbard & Cravens Coffee

Stopped in to grab a cup of Joe. Maddie (Maddy?) was the barista whom made my iced Pumpkin Pie Latte. She was super sweet upon walking in. Natalie was the other gal whom was busy restocking and cleaning. She too was super nice as well. I've read some of the other reviews and I have to say that my experience was quite the opposite. This location may be experiencing issues with being short staffed so their closing hours may change, but that doesn't mean their quality while open has gone down. I feel like more customers could try a little understanding and patience. I was in the middle of my work day and I chose to be patient and understanding. And you know what? My experience was amazing because of that and these wonderful ladies. I most definitely will make it a point to stop by here when I am in the area.

I am very picky about my coffee and I usually find it so hard to find a place that makes consistently good coffee. There is nothing more disheartening than finding a place that makes good coffee but only when certain people make it. At Hubbard and cravens it doesn’t matter who is on bar, I know I’m going to get an amazing latte every time I order. I have yet to have a bad coffee from there and I have ordered a lot of lattes 😂 the thing that stands out to me is that even when they are busy they don’t sacrifice on quality. You get your drink quickly but it doesn’t taste like it was made in a rushed manner. Also, let me just say the staff is so nice and amazing. My husband and I go every weekend and they take the time to talk to us even when they are busy. We drive all the way from Westfield just to come get coffee from them

For someone seeking that third wave coffee experience, I have faith H&C will deliver for you. I've tried many, many Indy coffee shops with mixed (mostly "meh") results.

Went to H&C on a Saturday morning and got their El Salvador. Went back near closing time for another hit of El Salvador and bought a bag of whole beans to take home. Using a Hario V60 with a linen filter and proper grind/water/temp, I can easily duplicate the delicious results they served me on that Saturday.

Roast date on my bag was about a month out, but the results can't be argued. Truly fantastic pour. You can tell a bit by the size and uniformity of beans that they're sourcing quality and the roast was dead on. You'll want to periodically take a sniff from the bag. It's...crack.

Of course I went the following day, Sunday, and they were pouring a different coffee. Peruvian, maybe? I don't recall, but it was also fabulous. I will be back. No doubt whatsoever.

This is one of the very, very rare shops that's clearly at the top of their game. How they can batch brew with this level of excellence I have no idea, but I can say it's a rare find, typically reserved for shops that offer pour overs. I'm delighted to have discovered this gem of coffee shop that's clearly serious about actual coffee.

I also find it cool that you can get nice gear there; I spotted a Hario and an Aeropress and some other stuff on the wall on my way out the door. Excellent.

October 2021 update:
As I sit here sipping their lovely Ethiopian, I'm compelled to share that I've had a few more excellent experiences with H&C on Carrollton. Among the more curious surprises: I got their Sumatran (which I'd probably never order, if given an option), and it was a remarkably enjoyable expression I wouldn't mind revisiting. Their Guatemalan was probably my least favorite, but it occurs to me that of the four bags of Guatemalan I've purchased this year, I was only really jazzed about one of them. So even their Guatemalan, for me, would place well above average based on my recent experience with competing roasters of exceptional repute.

I also checked beneath one of the El Salvador bags next to checkout today, and I believe the roast date was 9/29 (it's 10/8 today). This is great.

Check this place out. The execution is shockingly good.

Hubbard and Cravens has the best muffins and drinks! The barista Caleb was so helpful and personable, he definitely made my experience excellent! He made a great London Fog, I highly recommend. I will be back!

I enjoy Starbucks, but I’m over the flavor. I wanted to try something new and local! You can’t beat a yelp search, when I typed in coffee. Hubbard and cravens popped up and I chose to go because it was closest to my office.
Located in broadripple, on carrolton ave, it the second group of buildings down from the alley cat, you’ll find Hubbard’s.
There was a good number of people hanging out around 7 which is awesome, lots of conversations and not just screen time.
The baristas were very friendly! Let me answer questions, and made some great recommendations based on what I stated I liked.
I ended up with a medium roast coffee, I wanted to try something simple before I went back for lattes or other drinks.
I loved it! Just the right amount flavor and I add some cream because you know that they say about black coffee drinkers. I’ll be back for some more coffee treats!

My favorite in Broad Ripple. Great seasonal drinks! I love the caramel apple cider. I usually come here on a Monday and study for a few hours.

Love Hubby C! Delicious muffins, wonderful coffee and fast, friendly baristas. You'll find their coffee at multiple local restaurants in Broad Ripple which is a testament to its flavor. They also have a great selection of sugar free syrups

Fantastic coffee! They have Macadamia milk! I ordered an iced latte with a split shot of espresso, half-caff basically. Relaxing music and plenty of seating. Friendly service.

My goodness this coffee is absolutely delicious! The customer service was great here. Edit: The CDevine! Is my go to drink and is very similar to the Carmel macchiato. I just recently tried the Lavender white mocha and my gosh, is devine! With just enough lavender 💜

Atmosphere and decor were nice. I got a latte with an extra shot and you could barely taste any coffee flavor at all. Their espresso tasted very watery. We also got breakfast sandwiches and they definitely aren’t made fresh cause the eggs were still cold on the inside. The ham egg and cheese barely had any ham on it. Both were served on an English muffin that could have been toasted a bit.
