My wife and I just enjoyed a wonderful lunch here. I love that atmosphere and I love that this is attached to a bookstore! I enjoyed a wonderful Italian provolone sandwich and my wife enjoys soup and sandwich combo. This is such a jewel to have in our community.

One of the best locally-owned cafes in Terre Haute! All the staff is genuine and very friendly. I have loved everything I have tried here, and the atmosphere is very inviting. It is a nice spot to sit and get things done or read a book. They have a wide variety of sandwiches with new soups each day. They also make lattes, frappes, hot/iced coffee, and a variety of teas.

I have ordered from Gingersnaps a few times on DoorDash but I went in person today and I had the best experience! The owner knew about my gluten/dairy allergy and was so accommodating! She brought me a gluten free roll to try and it was absolutely amazing. The service is amazing and so is the food. I will definitely keep going back!

I have nothing but wonderful reviews! I'm from out of a town and I always try to support local places everywhere I go and this little place was worth it! The salad was huge and very fresh! My latte was great and the barista added a little extra honey and chocolate and it was amazing! The staff was wonderful and very friendly! I'm here for another week and will definitely be going back!

Great little place tucked away. Lots of delicious options when it comes to food and drinks. I was looking for a quality breakfast sandwich, the service was fast and brought to my table and the menu is reasonably priced. Recommend!

Great customer service. Wife had a white chocolate mocha and I had a regular coffee which was made perfect and tasted great. I like that the coffee shop is in a Christian book store.

Great little local cafe located inside a Christian book store near 41 & 70. In town for business and found this on Google search for "best lunch place in Terre Haute" and this surely is one. Order at the counter and choose a seat in one of two seating areas including a counter overlooking the store. They team will bring your order to you. Great menu with lots of options. Hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soup and more. Daily Specials and made to order coffee and tea drinks. I enjoyed the Turkey Pesto sandwich with Stuffed Pepper soup. Both were delicious but the soup was the star. Very friendly and efficient staff. Clean dining space and restroom. A new favorite.
