Federal Coffee + Fine Foods

Federal Coffee and Fine Foods deserves all the stars, it has become my favorite place to be downtown. The food is always amazing and I love the diversity. Guests are given a unique and always evolving menu and are encouraged to try an array of entrees and treats. No matter what time of day, Federal always has a calm and comfortable atmosphere, I always feel relaxed and at home whenever I step foot inside. And last but certainly not least, Federal’s staff are PHENOMENAL humans who are always warm and welcoming! Federal wouldn’t be Federal without their fantastic crew who go above and beyond in their service and care for each and every guest, intentionally ensuring that every experience is personable and meaningful.

I compare every coffee shop to this place, and that’s quite a few. Nobody can touch Federal. They’ve made me a coffee addict, and I’m not upset about it 🤷‍♂

Just what needed… a big, fresh salad bursting with flavors! This is such a cute spot in Terre Haute with Southern California vibes. Fresh food, clean and chic atmosphere, and modern offerings. By far the BEST salad I’ve had in Indiana. I got the sweater weather Cobb and subbed feta instead of goat cheese. It was outstanding! I’ll be back for sure.

Everything about this place is way better than it has to be - I’d come for the coffee alone (always brewed strong & perfect, from Indiana roasted beans) - but the breakfast items & baked good are just next level. I visit multiple times whenever I’m in town & here I am, a week later still dreaming about this egg in the hole. The skill on display in this seemingly humble dish!! The bread had a delightful bagel-like chew, the gossamer-thin (quality!) ham was just the right amount, with an egg cooked to such perfection the yolk ate like a savory jam. Perfect sprinkle of cheese- with everything toasted exactly right AND the detail of a little parsley & pepper which if nothing else made a feast for the eyes. I could eat this virtually every day of my life & die happy. Please never let your standards slip, Federal- you are the very best of Terre Haute & I love you.

While visiting ISU for a conference, I stopped in to check out this coffee shop. It had a super chill vibe and a very relaxing atmosphere. They have a great location on the corner as well as quality coffee with an assortment of goodies. Must try when in town. Thank you for the great experience!

Was at a catered party and was there for him to set up food. He was knowledgeable and friendly. The food was truly good. The salad and dressing was perfect. Colorful and dressing was a blend of ranch and Ceasar in flavor. Meats were wonderful. Roasted potatoes were some of the best I've had. Veggies were seasoned just right.

I had the BEST poached eggs I have ever had!
Perfectly cooked and delicious!

The cooks are the best in the city and also a handsome group of fellas if I say so myself!

i go to this coffee shop pretty much every day. their seasonal drinks are always a must try!! their baked foods and sandwiches are also amazing!! i recommend the lingonberry whirls :D!! the workers here are always so nice and friendly!!

The Breakfast Burger was one of the very best brunch entrees I've ever eaten! Pass on the Strawberry Bubble Waffle unless you're looking for simpler, muted flavors.

The three berry scone was also superb, and the Golden Day Latte was really spicy with a lot of tumeric. Would absolutely go again -- but no waffle, next time. :)

I travel to Terra Haute for meetings and this place has the BEST latte! Also I love their gluten free blueberry muffin! And service? Impeccable!

Culinary genius! The food options are always top tier with great service. Great place to meet for a meeting, catch up with friends or to spend 5 hours getting caught up in work!

Biscuits and gravy was a good choice and a different take on a classic dish. I had the pumpkin cold brew with cream during my visit. The only thing I would like to see different was being able to order coffee on the restaurant side. Going between the two restaurant sides through a narrow hallway was awkward.

Great local coffee shop! Wonderful season sips! The peanut butter stack cookie is my favorite bakery item! The staff and the shop are amazing! Great job!

Really enjoyed my stop in here. Coming off of US-41 took a mere 4 minutes to reach Federal Coffee at the corner of Seventh and Wabash. I ordered a nitro cold brew which tasted great and was exactly what I needed during my trip to Chicago! The baristas were very friendly and quickly took care of the 6-7 person line.

Very hip coffee shop delicious Blueberry Gfree Muffins with lemon glaze! Coffee was fabulous

Obsessed with this coffee shop not just for their coffee but also the food! I’m so excited to be able to eat The Butlers Pantry Food Co food at any time of the day. The food here is chef-prepared and they use local ingredients. So glad they offer Vegetarian, vegan, and GF options as it’s hard to find stuff like that in town. The owners are some of the hardest working people I know and so sweet.

The walk-up window is genius, so now I can stop by when I’m walking my doggo and sit on the patio.

Super pumped to have a coffee shop like this downtown!

This was my first visit here but will definitely not be my last. The staff was very nice and friendly.
The coffee was wonderful and the chocolate chip cookie was seriously the best I have had anywhere. It was the perfect cookie in every way.
I'm anxious to come back and try other menu items.
I would give this place more than 5 stars if I could.

We were at a party that was catered by them. Our set up person was so personable and efficient. The food was fantastic. Thank You!

Really cute place! The caramel macchiato was insanely delicious.

Solid coffee and tasty cookie! The rest of the menu looked great, too!
