The Digest

Coffee shops in Fishers

We asked, you answered. Then we put your favorite shops to the test, comparing your picks with Google reviews and our own visits. Here is a quick look at the standouts:

🏆 Best Overall: The Well
And it’s not close. In every metric, they were far beyond every other shop on this list. This is the Fishers staple for coffee.

🎲 Wildcard Pick: Java House
With a healthy 3rd place in our poll, despite having the lowest Google rating. Why the disconnect? We aren’t sure. But locals usually speak highly of it. So it’s worth a try.

💎 Hidden Gems: MOTW and Niyyah Coffee
These shops have almost perfect ratings and a huge volume of reviews, but only placed mid-pack in our reader poll. So if you haven’t been, give them a shot!

Smoking Pastor Project gets a nice donation💰️

All thanks to the local Fishers Century Club. It’s a fun process — each member brings $100 which goes towards a pool. That $100 is a ticket to submit a charity you think the group should support. Then 3 are randomly chosen to get pitched to the group. The winning charity or organization gets the proceeds.

This quarter it was the Smoking Pastor Project, who recently had their mobile kitchen stolen by thieves. Hopefully this donation can get them back on track serving free meals to people in Hamilton County.

The next meeting is on December 10th. If you can’t make it but like the cause and want to help, you can visit them online here.
