Their Bagel breakfast sandwich is unbelievable. I'm really critical of breakfast sandwiches and good grief theirs is amazing.
Sadly, I cannot give this place any more than one star. I paid over $14 for a piece of bland quiche and small iced tea (menu said it was a large) that tasted so bad that I couldn’t drink it. There was no indoor seating allowed. Only two unclean tables outside available to sit on. I love supporting small business, but if you have the option, you may want to reconsider and pick somewhere else. Unfortunately, I will never go back.
Yana gave us great service and was very kind and helpful! We both loved the coffees we ordered and loved getting to sit in their outdoor area to drink it. Their indoor area is closed and yana said they don’t have a date set for it opening. We loved the muffin and breakfast sandwhich we got as well. They have great specialty coffees to try. We each got 2! It was nice being so close to the monon as well.
I was in broad ripple for some work needing to find a quick coffee place and glad I found perk up. You walk up and order at the window and they have a good menu to choose from. I got a dirty hippie and really enjoyed it. I'll remember to come back here the next time I'm in the area.
simply the best morning cafe patio in broad ripple. the breakfast sandwiches take a minute because they're made to order, but they're so worth it. the dirty hippie is excellent iced, would recommend. always a new variety of excellent baked goods on offer too.
wish they'd open the interior again! would be a nice place to spend some time.
So disappointed today. I was looking forward to trying a new cafe in hip Broad Ripple by the Monon Trail. The cappuccino was the most bitter cappuccino I ever tasted. My friend's Mint Monon tasted like a very basic hot chocolate with absolutely no Mint flavor. The ham & cheese braided bread was weird because it had some kind of red sauce, but worse yet it was greasy. The quiche was okay. I spoke with the barrista to see if we could get more Mint flavor and oat milk to see if it would help the bitterness. He said he'd have to charge me. I then spoke to the owner, who said she never had complaints before, and it was true I'd have to pay for more milik and mint flavor. My hard earned money paid way too much for all this and for the owner not to help make some amends. Will never recommend or go back. 😞
This is a great spot in broad ripple, and my go-to for coffee in the area. My favorite item is the Matcha, but try their specialty drinks too! I need to try the bread they make on Saturdays.
The food was delicious and the coffee was piping hot! Absolutely yummy. I ordered their mocha latte and their egg sandwich on ciabatta. All of their ingredients were fresh and even the bread alone was exceptional.
Also right across the street of the Monon, so that's a perk!
Just be aware when you visit that their inside dining room is closed, to which I was told it has been closed since the beginning of the pandemic.
We did not know that until we got there and had to sit outside in the heat. The experience was still wonderful, just would've been great to know there's no inside seating beforehand.
Overall, it is worth it to visit this cafe and try what they have to offer. We will be back!
