I come here every time I’m visiting Indy. The best coffee and the best customer service. Shout out to Lydia! They’re awesome!

Bright and charming local coffee shop that supports the Patachou Foundation that's fighting food insecurity in Indianapolis. They have all the coffee shop staples, plus they rotate through unique and interesting coffee and tea drinks seasonally. We also grabbed some delicious breakfast pastries, including a brioche cinnamon roll that was absolutely incredible.

Service was extra friendly! I admire the creativity of the specialty drinks, but be advised some drinks (like the mojito latte) are for those with an acquired taste! Regular coffees satisfy that morning craving. Viewing the garden and chickens from the parking lot is a bonus!

This was a FAIL for a chai latte... touted in magazine articles they made thier own chai in house... It wasn't... it was pumps of overly sweet Monin syrup a shake of cinnamon in the cup and then they didn't even make the milk more than lukewarm... tasted like a super sweet milk steamer. Not what I expect from a Hoover location. The building itself was quite nice. Wont be back here.

Folx here are warm and welcoming. Team macadamia nut milk and vegan chocolate donut for life.

I like that they mix their menu up seasonally. Coffee drinks are good. Staff is friendly. Seem to always have a gluten free and vegan pastry.

Foundation coffee shares all its benefits directly to Patachou foundation for helping children in need. That was my primary motto to visit and buy coffee and food at Foundation coffee. Ok searching online, said pets allowed with private outdoor pods and heated seating. Much to my surprise none were available yesterday and I landed with my dog. The servers arranged a heater to sit outside which was of no help in 30 degrees weather. We ordered Chocolate Cherry Cordial Lattes, apple cider cinnamon roll with buttermilk biscuits and pimento cheese. Baked goods didn’t disappoint, so did the coffee. Really good service, clean and well maintained store. 4* for the outdoor patio seating chaos. It’s not welcoming, it’s uncomfortable and really doesn’t serve the purpose in cold dreary winters. Management make note.

I had the cereal milk latte. It tasted like a normal latte with fruity pebbles on it. The hazelnut latte tasted more like amaretto which was disappointing. Relatively average coffee with an expensive tag. Other coffee shops in the area I’d visit again!

We were visiting Indy and in search of a local coffee shop to pop in for breakfast. I loved the drink options here; seasonal, very customizable, and the only shop I've seen offer macadamia milk. They have one breakfast sandwich on the menu, and it's all they need because it's incredible! The biscuit is subtly sweet, flaky, and buttery. It's not your typical fast food sandwich and is 1000% better: it has a cheese sauce, hard boiled egg, sausage patty, and an onion jam that's subtle, but adds a lot to it. There's also seasonal pastries that looked amazing with GF/Vegan friendly options. The folks were very friendly and there's space out on the patio. Foundation Coffee was definitely the right choice!

Quick and kind service even though they were busy, and a delicious latte to boot.

Cute shop. Not enough savory items on the menu, one being toast with cheese, and I didn't think that would fill me up. I got the only other savory item on the menu, the breakfast sandwich. It was fantastic, but I'm glad I substituted sourdough bread, 'cause I can't imagine what its standard, sweet, brown sugar biscuit could have added to that perfectly seasoned sausage, runny egg, and pimento cheese. As it was, the onion jam was sweet enough. Still, it was the best breakfast sandwich I've had anywhere. The London Fog Latte was great, too, but likewise, a touch too sweet. Next time I'll ask to go light on the syrup.

YOU are deserving of love and good things! You know you are! Show yourself some respect and go here and give yourself the GIFT that is their buttermilk biscuit. They have it plain, with jam, and often have it as part of an otherworldly breakfast sandwich. Thank yourself as SOON as you take your first bite; you can thank ME later…

The coffee is genuinely amazing, I also had a pączek with a delicious custard and blackberry filling. There is very limited seating, if you're coming to do work you might be hard pressed to find any indoor seating at any time. But, if you're here for the coffee then I couldn't recommend this place enough.
