| The best independent locally owned coffee shop in Indy - period. |
|
|
So there's a reason my food blog is actually called Coco & Coffee... I love chocolate and I love coffee - chocolate and coffee together is even better. So it should come to no one's surprise I'm doing another entry on a locally owned coffee shop. I know that silly sign up there says it's the
Best in Indy (2007) but really it should hold a special spot just for having some tasty coffee and cool interior designs. Monon Coffee Company (as said in the name) is in heart of Broad Ripple's trendy art and clothing boutiques. Right across from your drunk nights in the Red Room and after night cravings in Qdoba - sits spot you wouldn't have known was there if you only visit Broad Ripple in the evening (shame on you if that's all you've done!).
With 8 honor system coffee choices (yes it's a honor system so please pay), and some funky new coffee items on the menu it's sure to please any coffee junkie. Fortunately for me, Indianapolis weather has not been kind lately with the 103F degree weather with 53% humidity, I walked into Monon Coffee Company and ordered their Iced Mona Lisa. It was a delicious espresso based drink with a kick of real cinnamon and hints of nutmeg.

Of course along with other cafes, including homemade rice crispies, brownies, danishes, and the like but let's be serious you're there for coffee! If you're ever in Broad Ripple during the daylight, check this place out. It's worth the visit and you're paying your $3 at a Starbucks anyway - it might as well be a local shop.
