The food at Cafe Patachou is fresh and delicious. However, I don't like the self serve coffee idea. I love coffee and during a business meeting it is annoying to have to get up all the time for more. My omelet was good with avocado! yum. Toast and fruit were perfect.

I was referred here for breakfast. I found the food and service great! I had my usual omelet with Indiana bacon, white cheddar and spinach with toast. It was great! It was a nice day so I was able to sit outside and enjoy a good meal and ambience.

Cafe Patachou's owner started with one small restaurant and has now built a mini-empire in Indianapolis. The food is always fresh and delicious and you know it, because there is always a crowd, no matter what time of day.

Absolutely enjoyed the thick cuts of fresh toast along with enormous omelets! Generous portions at reasonable prices and friendly customer service. Get in before 9 am on Sunday mornings to beat the brunch crowd.

For a family gathering, just you by yourself, or with a friend. This is the place to go for a delicious FRESH meal. No complaints ever. A little pricy but it's fresh food. You can sit and drink coffee read your paper and enjoy your surroundings. The staff is ever so pleasant.

In a city overcrowded with big chains we loved finding this cafe. A must visit when in Indy for any meal really. We particularly loved our brunch (omelettes are the way to go) and coming in before hitting up a nearby movie where we dined on a few appetizers and drinks. The food bistro style and fresh and definitely a... More

This restaurant has become one of my new favorites for breakfast. They have an interesting set of omelettes, nice side dishes, and good coffee. The downtown location is very convenient to the capitol, the campus, and the convention center, but parking can be an issue.

Ate in this cafe every morning. Love the laid back attitude. Also love the self service coffee selections and the broken yolk sandwiches are amazing. Wish we had one local here it is that good!!

We love Cafe Patachou and have been going to all of Martha Hoover's restaurants for years. We enjoy all of them very much. We only wish that Cafe Patachou would offer a potatoe dish on the side to accompany the omlette; otherwise, it is a favorite of ours. The service is always good, the restaurant is always clean and it... More

Great spot for breakfast. The service was friendly and fast. I throughly enjoyed the self-serve coffee and I am still dreaming of the french toast with candied pecans.
