Wow this was amazing, surprise street side building right on my way to a gig, dipped in right in time before they closed, I found a fun loving barista cleaning up and eventually putting together my ube latte. Loved the discount for my brought in cup, it is good enough on tables and couches but my back would be sore after long crouching to my laptop. I loved the espresso and ube, always my go to when it appears on a menu. Can definitely recommend!

Went in on a sleepy Sunday morning, barista was very friendly and greeted us right away. They roast their own beans which I love. Quiet simple atmosphere with several different styles of seating. Street parking. Homemade syrups including Ube which is made from local cookies. Barista took her time to make high quality lattes and even walked them over to my husband and I. Will plan to return!

I stopped by on my way to IND airport to try a nice local coffee spot as a traveler. It's located a couple blocks away from a park, which I definitely took advantage of!Overall, it was a nice place I would love to come back to if I'm in the area. The coffee was great, friendly service, and pretty quick even on a day they had a busy pop-up shop inside!What I found really awesome is that they only provide reusable glass jars for your drinks. If you return them the next time you visit (or bring your own container), they give you $1 off! I didn't know they were zero waste when looking for this place, but I'm glad I found it!Definitely the type of place I'd love to frequent if I were a local! So if you're also just visiting, I'd recommend bringing a container (luckily I had one) so you don't have to worry about recycling the glass jar on-the-go.

Helm is definitely not a place to pass up. They serve their coffees in glass jars, which can be reused or returned for a zero waste experience. I had a delicious pour over coffee. The barista was very helpful in helping me figure out what coffee to try. You can tell of their dedication to sustainability and also proud in their roasts. I loved the more chill inclusive vibes and can't wait to revisit.

Very inviting coffee shop! The barista was very sweet and even brought my drink over to me when it was ready. I sat on their couch and read a book for 2 hours while enjoying my iced vanilla latte. Parking was easy too, there's a small parking lot to the side and lots of street parking available. Will definitely return whenever I'm by Garfield Park again!

My husband and I were in the area and wanted to try a new to us coffee shop. We couldn't pass up this place after all of the reviews here on Yelp. I knew I had to get it when I saw Ube on the menu! You don't see that in many coffee shops. Mine had the perfect amount of Ube flavor which paired nicely with the coffee. Of course you can't pass up the gorgeous latte art either.

I actually visited Helm coffee for the first time after hours for an event with a couple of Indianapolis organizations that I am proud to support. so full disclosure, I cannot speak on the service or the food. I can only speak on the ambience and what I know about the business.I've learned that Helm Coffee is a woman and LGBTQ plus owned coffee roasters and café. Their tagline is "spreading the love of great coffee through kindness and connection." Gawwwd, I love that! It makes total sense that the two organizations I was with that evening decided to meet in this space. Their mission and purpose align so well with what we were doing.The physical space inside is beautiful and inviting. The restrooms are all gender, and easy & free parking to the left side of the building. I don't do a lot of business in fountain Square just because of where I live up on the north east side, but going forward, I'm very excited to visit Helm Coffee during normal business hours and support them.

Love trying out new coffee shops when I can and this one did not disappoint. Lovely atmosphere, great coffee and perfect environment for meeting a friend to network. This coffee shop appeared to be pet-friendly as there were a few dogs that came in with their owners and even one dog would occasionally gently nudge us for a head rub. The coffee menu is small, which I preferred because large drink menus can be overwhelming and make me indecisive. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be a repeat customer in the near future.
