The Hive Coffee House
7120 Homestead Rd, Fort Wayne, IN
Crema's Take
“This Fort Wayne gem excels at creating distinct spaces for every mood—whether you're flying solo with your laptop, meeting a group of friends, or bringing the whole family, you'll find a perfectly suited corner, from cozy indoor nooks to a garage-door-fronted outdoor patio. The coffee itself earns serious respect from regulars who praise the precision espresso work and creative signature drinks, with even simple orders like iced americanos executed flawlessly. It's the rare coffee shop that balances genuinely great coffee craftsmanship with genuine warmth and thoughtful hospitality, making it easy to understand why people keep coming back to linger.”

Definitely recommend this cozy coffee place to vibe, study and hang out. There were several different seating spaces to accommodate solo, groups, and kids with table seating, bar seating and separate space for kids. Got a blackberry flavored matcha and avocado toast, both very delicious!
Definitely would recommend grabbing a coffee and hanging out here. There’s a good kids area separate from the main seating plus there’s outdoor seating in the front and back. Coffee was good too!
Finally got to try The Hive! While my order was simple it was really good. Because it is absolutely possible to mess up an Iced Americano, believe it or not! It was spot on with the perfect little top of cold foam! My little pastry was so good (sure it would have been even better warmed up)! Service was great and such a cute vibe. Had it not been so hot out, I would have sat on the patio.
Okay, I LOVE this place! My friend recommended this to me & it was such a good experience. The coffee quality is what I was impressed with most. I got a brown sugar shaken espresso, a bacon egg & cheese bagel with avocado, and I believe it was chicken red pepper soup (or something close to that). Mine & my friend’s coffee & food were delicious. The place is very cute & well done on the inside, and they have outdoor seating too. I only wish this place was closer to my home! I will be back in the future.
This place is amazing. Lots of great options for seating and good amount of parking. The garage door and outdoor seating option is just perfect! The kids area is perfectly laid out! With seating to just watch your kids as they play, it’s very accommodating for families with young kids. And quality toys!! On the one hand, I loved the drip coffee. On the other hand, we didn’t love our vanilla latte (a bit unsweetened and not a favorite milk). We also probably wouldn’t try the Oreo shake again, but it wasn’t bad. Glad to see they have gluten free pastries. Again, not a favorite taste, but nice to have the option. Overall, since I am a drip coffee guy with kids, it’s perfect for me. I’d love to see some lunch foods though, and maybe a different milk or a bit more syrup.
