The Light House coffee bar
1320 E Dupont Rd, Fort Wayne, IN
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside Catalyst Fitness, this espresso-focused spot punches well above what you'd expect from a gym lobby coffee bar, with a genuinely skilled barista turning out both reliable classics and creative signature drinks like their buttered popcorn frappe that somehow nail the balance between adventurous and comforting. Regulars rave about the consistently rich, delicious coffee that keeps them coming back year after year, and the warm, welcoming energy means you'll leave brightened whether you're grabbing a quick espresso or settling in with something more indulgent.”

I have been buying coffee regularly from The Light House Coffee Bar for the past year. Nowhere else can you find such reliably delicious, rich coffee in Fort Wayne. It always brightens up my day to come in and be greeted by the friendly, personable owner. If you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend visiting for a cup of coffee.
The drinks were unique and well made. I tried the buttered popcorn frappe and it was the perfect balance of novel and approachable. The coffee bar is in the lobby of a gym but overall it was an easy atmosphere to talk over. Worth the visit!
Really Friendly and Yummy Coffee! Stopped by here for the first time today. I will return someday. Update: 7/26/22 I was here last Tuesday and today, still yummy. This time I got Cafe Mocha. Update: 10-25-24 Still the best coffee bar in town. I won't go anywhere else now. Update: 2-6-23 Still, best coffee bar in town. Update: 4-30-24 This hidden gem should be your go-to coffee bar. Update 4-5-23 still coming here. It's Dark Mocha time at the Light House Coffee Bar, located inside Catalyst gym. This drink is called Cafe Mocha. One can choose regular chocolate, dark chocolate or white chocolate. I chose dark chocolate. It is one of the best drinks here I think- this and the Dude. Update: 10-25-23 Still my favorite coffee bar in town. Update: 11-4-24 Today I ordered something I thought of called chocolate cortado. It was very yummy. Update: 1-3-24 Best coffee bar in town.
Its inside the gym Catalyst Fitness. Barista is very nice. Will come again.
I’ve only seen this coffee shop driving by and often said I should try it out, I ordered myself 2 coffees from here to try, the campfire hot and the Carmel cream iced. Both VERY good, I usually go for overtly sweet coffees because I don’t like the bitter taste, but whatever coffee they use here tastes great! I enjoy the depths of flavor and honestly prefer my coffee to be a little stronger when I order from here. Absolutely recommend, adorable shop with great service. Kudos to the employees, speedy service, great coffee and all around a good experience!
