Here at Lazy Daze, we give our customers more than just a delicious cup of coffee or tea. We give everyone a place to come to and relax, converse with friends, read a book, or catch a live tune from a musician passing through town. Lazy Daze takes a lot pride in giving her customers an excellent product with a non-corporate style of doing business with those who love a premium beverage. When one walks into Lazy Daze, they find themselves in a bohemian/New Orleanish atmosphere that sits in the center of historical Irvington. The interior displays art from various artists who reside in and around Irvington. It is small, quaint, warm, and intimate seating around 15-20 people. The outside seating during the warm seasons allows for additional seating on a deck that is shaded by a large tulip tree. The aura of the coffeehouse takes on a village feel and all are welcome. The coffees that Lazy Daze offers are 40% socially and environmentally conscience, which entails coffees that range from fair trade, organic, rainforest alliance, and bird friendly. The remaining coffees are single origin, or in other words, estate coffees that are bought directly from the coffee plantations. As for our espresso, a slight sweetness is found because it is a lightly roasted bean called a Café Bella, which makes a smooth tasting latte, cappuccino, or any other espresso based drink. We also carry a premium selection of organic loose-leaf teas. For those who enjoy the world of tea, we have several black, green, and herbal teas to choose from. We also carry an oolong and a white tea for the connoisseurs. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to send us what you have to lazydazecoffeehouse@hotmail.com. We are always open for suggestions, because it is our goal to give the best cup of coffee or tea that any coffeehouse could offer.

Lazy Daze is by far the best coffee shop in town. Everyone is amazing and friendly - and the different coffees and teas available are exceptional!
The staff is great, the coffee fantastic, the atmosphere is awesome. I go there at least once a week to study, and always get good service. I go to the concerts and they're great. I love the blends of coffee, especially the Celebes Kolossi.
Lazy Daze is great. Their presence in the neighborhood has played a big part in bringing us together as a community. It caters to just about everyone; young, old, coffee lovers or tea lovers. The owners and their employees make you feel welcome every time you stop in.
Lazy Daze is *the* place to hang out on the east side of Indy! Irvingtonians love the delicious coffee and specialty drinks Jeff Coppinger and Katie and the rest of the crew serve. They always greet customers with a friendly smile, the free Wi-Fi access is stellar, and the outdoor seating rocks. But best of all, Lazy Daze is more than a coffee shop--it's a community gathering-place. Lazy Daze supports Irvington treasures like the Benton House by helping with publicity and fundraising efforts. The coffee shop attracts people from all over the city with fun events like poetry readings and acoustic concerts. Irvington wouldn't be Irvington anymore without Lazy Daze!! Thanks Jeff--keep up the good work!
Lazy Daze Coffehouse is an oasis of tranquility in the midst of hective lives that appeals to people of all ages and takes me back to the early 60's during Grad School in Bloomington.. People sit on its squshy couches or outside on the sidewalk or deck. Some of them write away at their laptops. Someone is always reading a book or newspaper. Others chat quietly of listen to the music. What peace! Rose Mary Clarke
Like having coffee with all your known and unknown friends. There are no strangers at this coffeehouse!
Everyone at Lazy Daze is great! I enjoy not only my latte, but the friendly staff who take care of me , whenever I go in, and remember what my usual is. Thanks for being in the neighborhood!
Best coffee in Indy by far! Friendly, cozy atmosphere with awesome staff.
Everyone is so friendly, you always feel welcomed! Catie and Nyla are the best!
The people who work there are so nice and really ineract with their customers. The atmosphere is very welcoming and it helps draw in a lot of people to Irvington. Wonderful!
They are all around wonderful from the service to thecoffee not to mention the fabulous icecream!
Truly a "hometown" favorite! The coffee is wonderful, the atmosphere is inviting, even the originality of the place just make you feel like you're visiting an old friend house.
Simply the best. A place where everybody knows your name as the lyric goes. No pretense, comfortable, caring service. Try it out.
This coffee house is the best in the city, bar none. Jeff Coppinger serves up not only great coffees, teas, scones and more, but he also provides outstanding entertainment and a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere in this awesome Irvington hub.
They place is so laid back the coffee is awesome the atmosphere is realy hippie
Great neighborhood place! The deck is great! The live music is usually excellent! Wonderful combination of friendliness and great service!
Lazy Daze serves up quality coffee and drinks and is filled with friendly staff. It doesn't matter what time of year it is: you can drink your hot cup of joe inside on the couch in the winter, or sip your yummy frozen frap or juice on the deck outside in the summer.
Lazy Daze is the best in the city. The prices are right, the staff is wonderful, and the atmosphere is welcoming.
Great place because of the free internet, great baristas, and relaxed and inviting environment.
It is a great and relaxing hang out- good food- good drinks and refreshments. August Artist of the Month ROCKS!
I wonderful place to spend a sleepy morning on the weekend. Great staff, great atmosphere!
Great people, entertainment almost daily, super neighborhood establishment.
Lazy Daze has been my #1 choice for a number of years, even after Starbucks came to Irvington. Since moving downtown to Mass Ave., coffee just isn't the same. I'm finally able to give up my coffee addiction; however, whenever I'm in the area, my Lazy Daze "Latte" addiction will be ordered up!!! Here's to the best coffeehouse in town!
the last time i went to this coffee shop the employees were caring and personal with all of the customers. my experience there was absolutely amazing! the man behind the counter was sociable and helped me to find my forte with their brands of coffee. his generosity made my day! i hope they win this year as well they deserve it! Cheers to Lazy Daze Cafe!!!
Great coffee, good baristas, terrific atmosphere indoor and out. Nice community involvement and arts programing. You'll see everyone from single adults with or without pets to families with well-behaved kids (on weekends mostly). This is the place you've been looking for!
What's there to say? Great Coffee selection, Great People running the place, Great atmosphere...just all around greatness in a store/shop. Add to that the occasional musicians on the porch or inside...love it.
Lazy Daze is my public living room. I always start with cafe du jour, mid-size, and then one or two refills. Keeps me awake and makes me happy. Great ice cream selections. You just have to try the espresso flavor. All sorts of teas and coffee drinks made before your very eyes. And there's a wide selection of current and recent magazines lying around. I bring in some of my mags, and a few others do, too. Good selections of music plays through the speakers, and real live music is performed two or three times a week in the summer -- sometimes out on the deck. The patio is covered now, so you can enjoy the rain. Poetry night is Thursday. Barristas to die for. Tip 'em big. And the Bread Ladies are right there to amaze you, too. LD is a central place for Irvington, and we're a hospitable bunch. Come in, get your beverage, and sprawl on one of the sofas. LD is funky but good enough to bring out-of-towners to. It makes for a good social habit, and its tasty!
