About Hubbard & Cravens
The Hubbard & Cravens in Meridian Kessler at 49th & Penn is my favorite Hubbard & Cravens location, so let me tell you why. (Also, hi Kristin!)
The area at 49th & Penn is already super adorable — this little pocket community with a local hardware store, a gas station, a dry cleaner’s, a workout studio, a Cafe Patachou (and alike). And the H&C fits right in.
Walking into this H&C always makes me feel super comfortable. There is so much comfortable seating inside and out. The coffee counter (and food case) is as long as the building. And there’s just always a lot going on. Plenty of small families are grabbing drinks & treats. An assortment of Butler students are studying with headphones in. There are ALWAYS some grandparents reading a newspaper (remember those?) and probably doing the crossword puzzle. And, of course, there is a constant flow of all kinds of people grabbing drinks to-go. (Oh, and there’s always a puppy on the patio during the summer.)
💌 Love Letters
“I love how friendly the baristas always are and the amazing recs they have! A barista once recommended I try a Blackberry Vanilla Latte and I will always crave it now. I don’t live in Indy anymore and no coffee shop makes that latte the same way as Hubbard—I always make sure to stop by if I am ever around the area. I LOVE HUBBARD!!! truly the best!”
