Bind Cafe - Kokomo

Truely a unique place and a local treasure, while you wait for your Incredible food or drink to be made fresh for you, you can browse the store area and the selection of multicultural books. With their rotating menu of food from different countries you could come back each month and have a completely different experience! Great place to go if you are looking to support local business!

This is one of the most important places that exists in Kokomo, right now, in my opinion. If you are just concerned with quality and afgordability of food and coffee, that alone is a reason to stop by. The owner makes delicious food and is constantly making special dishes from around the world. The coffee is made fresh in front of you after you order while she chats you up with small talk or important issues, depending on the day. But the cafe is much more than that. It is a community hub for sharing and archiving the ignored (by the majority) reality of Kokomo's black history, accessing conscious books and black authors that you cant find elsewhere in Kokomo, exchanging languages, hosting events that broaden minds and perspectives, supporting black artists and unapologetically holding space on the square with confidence and pride with a spirit of generosity and welcome. On informal days, you can go and relax and play board games, browse through interesting material or meet new people. This place should be supported, period. Kokomo needs Bind Cafe.

Incredibly caring and friendly owner, talking to her genuinely makes me want to move to the area. We just stopped in to check the place out, so I can't comment on the coffee but I love her ethical sourcing and it sure smelled good!

Always warm and friendly. Interesting combinations of food from a different country every month. The vegetarian options are so appreciated. Love this unique diverse atmosphere of community and wonderful food!

The ambience is great, the food is great and portion are the right size. You can have fun while waiting for your plate and buy something fresh or local. Last, but not least, the owner is so charming and makes your visit unique, she takes your order and cooks it.
