Come here for brunch instead 🙂
Cauliflower appetizer was delicious with a super creamy sauce. Lamb entrée was super tender, creamed spinach had too much horseradish. Fries were delicious. Cafe menu Gyro wrap: the meat was very thick, a bit tough, and dry at the end, though well seasoned. And the bread was tough and chewy as well – maybe sourdough pita is not the move. Even after asking for extra sauce and veggies it was hard to finish, but maybe that’s just me. Sticky toffee pudding was pretty good, the crème brûlée was way too salty, and the texture was curdled. When we mentioned this to the waitress after she asked for feedback, she said she was offended because it was her favorite dessert and didn’t offer to refund or exchange. And she brought her check before the desserts came out. Maybe she is someone’s daughter because she did not know how to waitress lol. The dining area leaves all of your clothes and coat smelling like fries because the kitchen is open to the seating area. Very cute decor. Overall, it was very interesting and expensive and sometimes pleasant experience. I will probably not be back except to try brunch because the café dessert items looked absolutely incredible.
My wife and I found it through the Indy Local Foodies group and decided to check it out — and it did not disappoint. The space is super creative, with art everywhere and cool vintage dishes (some from the owner’s grandmother, which I loved).
The restaurant is split into two sides — a cozy diner and a bakery/local shop with plants, pottery, and handmade goods. I grabbed an almond croissant (amazing!) and a rich, chocolatey brownie that’s a dream for serious chocolate lovers.
We tried Grandpa Poe’s for brunch — the potatoes and sausage were perfectly seasoned. My wife had the cinnamon roll, eggs, and bacon — all delicious, especially the cinnamon roll with coffee.
Overall, The Borage is a great addition to Speedway. It’s creative, local, and full of heart. Definitely worth a visit next time you’re in the area!
Yesterday I had the pleasure of taking my son and daughter to brunch there. I thought it would be the perfect place to celebrate my oldest getting a new job. It did not disappoint! Every aspect of the outside and inside of Borage is eclectic and inviting. Bright floral murals, comfortable seating in the cafe inside and out, and a view of wild flower gardens that I hope will continue to mature and grow with this wonderful business. I don’t write a lot of reviews, but this place is worth sitting down to.
We ordered one of their specials, the French Toast Bread pudding, a breakfast biscuit bowl, and my younger child ordered their cinnamon roll with lemon cream cheese icing. Their signature espresso and matcha drinks were on point with beautifully curated flavors. As our food arrived we were told that they were out of cinnamon rolls but presented not one but two complimentary replacements. Their pumpkin chocolate chip Basque cheesecake, and chocolate croissant big enough for two. My child was so looking forward to the cinnamon roll, but her face lit up at the sight of both items. It absolutely made her day. Our brunch was lovely, and Olivia was the perfect server. So calm and attentive. Even noticing that my daughter’s chai was not being consumed and offered sweetener. I was blown away. It’s the first time a server has ever noticed my sugar baby’s need for a sweeter chai. I was so glad that it then was drank instead of wasted. Just a small touch, but so intuitive. Olivia, you’re the best! It gave me a moment of “Unreasonable Hospitality” that I think Will Guidara would smile about.
The marketplace with exposed kitchen and spacious coffee bar was a feast for the eyes and palate. A wonderful mix of local wares, culinary treats like house made stocks and pie shells, fresh fruit and veg in mismatched vintage bowls, and house plants in all sizes just to name some of my favorite bits. This area was so fun to explore, and had a sweet seating area with vintage lounger and repurposed bench seating options. Staff on both sides were kind and relaxed which I much appreciated. A welcome change from so much of the city. I will gladly continue to come out from the south side, winding along 16th street to Speedway to grab more of their beautiful pastries and cold case offerings. They are doing it right over there. Down to the pep talk on the kitchen door for staff. This place is a TREAT, Indy. Don’t let her wilt. <3
The whole establishment is shaped like a big L, with one side being the coffeeshop/bakery/market and the other being the sit-down restaurant + kitchen where you can also get the full bakery and coffee menu. The service was very prompt, our server was very warm and pleasant. I wouldn’t say it was quiet, but it felt more like a cafe/coffee shop vibes as compared to a diner or your typical breakfast sit-down. It felt very “nice” while also feeling like a very casual, comfortable vibe. I will DEFINITELY be back soon to try more menu items 🙂
