Java House (Downtown)

"I have been to multiple locations and Java House never disappoints. The best coffee I’ve ever had hands down. My boyfriend is a coffee hater and he will drink Java House’s drinks. A must stop any time we pass Indy!"

"I love the video here. It has such a coffee house vibe. Also, the staff are incredibly sweet and helpful! Honestly, the drinks are good too (take that with a grain of salt as I don't like coffee). The only thing that could be better is the food. They don't have amazing food options, but they are not bad by any means necessary. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a nice coffee spot in downtown (especially on mass Ave) I love getting work done here."

"This was a beautiful experience. I was there on December 31st and had a Winter Warmer and the bagel sandwich. Let me tell you, this was one of the best coffee shop experiences ever. The service was phenomenal and food equally as good. I was visiting from KC for the Colts-Raiders game and this was a definite highlight of the trip. Highly recommend! I'd give more stars if I could."

"Excellent coffee spot in the heart of downtown Indy! Recently I've stopped at Java House a couple times, each time ordering a specialty coffee along with breakfast sandwich. The Honey Baby is a great not too sweet option, and the Bonfire Brew is a deliciously sweet seasonal beverage as well. Sandwiches like the bacon & egg on a bagel are served flavorful and piping hot. Baristas are kindly, professional, and humorous today in particular! In my latest visit, somehow my name on the receipt came up as "Nerd". The server denied any knowledge, stating "I'm not sure how that name came up". Whether or not it was a deliberate joke, laughs were had on both sides of the counter! Happy National Coffee Day to Java House!"

"I was looking for a replacement coffee shop after seeing that the Starbucks closed down on the circle. When I came around 2 pm they were already out of all pumpkin cold brew. I went for a large “sweater weather” which was pretty good. However, the price was not! It was $8.41 for a large coffee and then of course the machine asks if you want to add tip on top of that. If I added even a $1 tip this coffee would’ve been almost $10! For comparison, I go to NYC and get a pistachio milk latte for under $8. The coffee was good and I like the atmosphere but the price just seems incredibly high for an Indianapolis location. As well, the bathroom has a code so you have to go back to the front and ask for it if you elect not to get a receipt. Which can be inconvenient if a line has formed. They do have a loft that can be rented upstairs which looked nice but I base this review on my experience. Also, if you note, none of the prices are displayed for their specialty drinks. A marketing tactic I have really come to hate and docked a star for. Probably wouldn’t come here again unless it’s was getting one of their base price drinks which seem to be more reasonably priced."
