The Hometown Apothecary
1102 Linden St, Indianapolis, IN
Crema's Take
“This apothecary-style café in Indianapolis stands out for its genuinely knowledgeable staff who can match drinks to your specific needs, whether you're seeking energy or relaxation, backed by real understanding of the science behind their recommendations. Beyond traditional coffee, they craft thoughtful specialty drinks and matcha preparations in a space that feels like a true neighborhood gathering spot where the team—particularly the notably warm and friendly Keith—actually seems delighted to help you linger and explore what's on offer.”

Stopped in a couple of minutes before they were going to close tonight and the 2 ladies were both very happy to help even though we were “those customers” who made them stay open a little later. They were extremely knowledgeable and gave great recommendations for what each of us were looking for. The conversation was easy and flowed naturally which provided a very comfortable atmosphere for all members of our party. This is a TOP NOTCH shop and I wish we discovered it sooner in our stay here. Thank you! The chocolate bar recommendation was 👌
Keith is one of the friendliest human beings you will meet and is very knowledgeable about the drinks that they offer! I recommend asking him what to get based on what you want (energy, relaxation, etc). You will not be disappointed! The inside is very well put together and clean with a few spots outside to sit and enjoy your drink!
This place is a gem. It's so refreshing to finally walk into a place where the staff is knowledgeable and is able to articulate the science behind goal-oriented recommendations More importantly, everyone on the staff genuinely seems to be more interested in individuals than in sales. They also recognize the responsibility and effort needed for community. And we are the beneficiaries of their contributions to tour dynamic community. Fountain Square is very fortunate.
Keith is a lovely fella and is knowledgeable about so much, so naturally my partner and I quickly grew to love this shop. We always love stopping in and also waving as we walk past. Definitely appreciate the vibes and the fact that they have so many Indiana grown products to improve the wellbeing of the individual. Wishing you all the best success for many years to come 🤌🤙
We visited the store today on their grand opening today, we were welcomed by wonderful & knowledgeable group of friendly people. It was so great to see all the natural products from honey, maple syrup, mushroom tea, live plants, cbd products to essential oils and soaps.. The atmosphere was so aesthetically pleasing, and, the people were so welcoming. We will definitely return . Thank you ! Diane. Five Stars !
