Third Place Coffeehouse

About this business

Brewed coffee, espresso, and fresh, local ingredients. We strive to provide an environment where a "mix of blue-collar, white-collar, priest-collar and dog-collar" customers can meet-up, socialize, and enjoy an excellent cup of coffee together. We also provide a place for local artists and artisans to display and sell their work. (quote is from "The Third Place, a coffeehouse- A Great Good Place" by Steve Goldsmith, Indy Week, 6/21/2000. This article was written when we received one of the Indies Arts Awards in 2000)

Great lunch place for vegetarians – Since I cut out certain types of meat I can really appreciate establishments that offer a lot of vegetarian options. Third Place has all sorts of interesting salads, soups, and sandwiches without meat being involved. I haven't tried everything on the menu yet but the food has been fresh and delicious each time so far. They also have a lot of interesting coffee and tea drinks. Prices are also very reasonable. The only downside is that this is mainly a coffee shop, so it isn't a very large e... read more

Kids/Toys Everywhere-Romper Room! – We used to love going to Third Place on the weekends, meeting friends, socializing, reading, occasionally working, and enjoying the coffeehouse atmosphere with people doing much the same. In the last few months the atmosphere has really gone downhill-there are so many toddlers and young children there, poorly supervised, with toys strewn everywhere, kids jumping on the couches,there was some sort of hide and seek going on today, running between the very tightly spaced tables, and the noise... read more

good coffee but employees don't wash hands – The food and coffee is tasty, but don't go to The Third Place if you have to be anywhere. The workers are friendly to varying degrees, but don't know how to manage when it gets busy (and it's always busy). I spent 40 minutes waiting for a breakfast burrito. They were working hard, but not in any efficient manner. I admit they were trying, but it didn't seem anyone taught them how to multi task. The worst part was, while I watched them go from the till to the food I never saw them ... read more

The Third Place Rocks. – Great coffee and desserts with menu offerings for vegetarians and vegans! Always an interesting crowd assembled for homage to the available wi fi. The Third Place is definitely where to get a pick me up before the bars or hang out and watch the Glenwood traffic fly by.

Love their coffee, scones & homemade italian sodas – I've been going here since they opened, a very long time ago! VERY KID & DOG FRIENDLY! And the kids and dogs are friendly too. Seriously, this is a great place to hang out in the morning or the afternoon. I don't spend much evening time there - but it's usually pretty busy. The staff is always friendly and the coffee is always fresh.

Great coffee, desserts, and sandwiches – This is more than a great coffee shop with good java. They're an excellent place for pies, cakes, etc too. Also, a great place for lunch/supper...sandwiches are some of the best. Try the Plethora!

Cute, cozy, consistent – This is a great spot for anyone looking to read, relax, and/or people watch. The location is unbeatable, and everything's well-priced. The coffee is very good, and service is generally friendly and quick, despite the occasional grouchy staff member. Try any of the items on the menu-they're all good, and vegetarian. The coffee is quality, and their espresso is awesome! Try the Americano, iced or hot, if you don't want a straight up espresso shot (or 2, or 3). They're open until midnight every night, w... read more
