Tea's Me Community Cafe

Tea’s Me Café at Tarkington Park is one of my favorite community spots in the city. The location inside the park makes it a perfect place to grab lunch, connect with neighbors, or just take a break. The space is fun, artful, and thoughtfully designed for community use—it regularly hosts meetings, events, and can even be rented after hours. The café reflects everything I admire about Tamika Catchings. Her personality, passion, and humility are everywhere in this place. You might even see her behind the counter or chatting with guests—she truly leads by example. The menu is small but has great healthy and vegan-friendly options. I had the Chicken, Bacon & Ranch sandwich with a spinach salad—really good! I’ll be back to try the carrot cake I keep hearing about. I work at the MLK Center just across the street, so my team and I stop by often. We’ve been lucky to collaborate with Tamika over the years, and I’ve been a fan of hers since her WNBA days. Tea’s Me is more than a café—it’s a true part of the community.

We're visiting from out of town and needed to find a place for breakfast. Saw this place in passing and it didn't look hugely busy. (Still a desirable trait for us during this time.). Awesome tea selection! Food is pretty good too. Great place to just enjoy a lovely community vibe while enjoying a break on our trip. If you have small children, there is an amazing playground right outside. This will be a go to place if we are ever back in Indy.

Tea's Me is my absolute favorite tea store and café! The variety of loose leaf tea is outstanding, and the food, including the carrot cake and blueberry coffee cake, is delicious. The atmosphere of the café is laid back and quiet enough for work, study, or conversations. The employees are friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. My most favorite tea is Japanese cherry with light honey, but for tea lovers, all of their teas and tea combinations are magical, hot, or iced.

I had the pleasure of trying the oolong mango tea, and it was absolutely delightful! The flavor was vibrant and refreshing. As for the sandwich, it was decent, but the sausage was disappointingly thin and a bit too crunchy for my liking. Overall, a mixed experience, but the tea definitely stole the show!

I am in love. This place is my new hangout spot for sweets and Tea. These Waffles are the bomb don’t need syrup. The fruit is fresh. The eegs with the spinach the truth and pepper jack cheese and turkey sausage. The Tea Japanese Cherry and medium honey. I’m in love. Don’t forget the carrot cake. And I got the warmer. Wanted a Tea pot. My Boss bought the last one… Extravagant…

Visiting Indianapolis for the first time my wife and I were looking for a place with tasty sandwiches for lunch. We were pleased with our choice. I had a chicken pesto on wheat and my wife had a grilled cheese on croissant. Both were delicious. We enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere and would come back!

I hosted my first Book Launch/Networking Party at Tea’s Me Community Cafe FOR my new book, " Suddenly Single: Surviving the Demise of Your Relationship ". I can't say ENOUGH GOOD THINGS about this Cafe and it's staff. The tea is amazing, the food was amazing & customer service was excellent as Ms. Wanda and her staff paid attention to our every needs and even added a few extra goodies for our party. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND any and EVERYONE to patronize this cozy Cafe.
