Taproom Coffee

This is a unique place that my husband and I stumbled across after dropping family off at the airport (we are from Alabama). He had a few brews (their selections are mostly malty or sours) and I drank a beautiful cappuccino. It was filled with students studying so the atmosphere was pretty quiet. We will most likely return when we're in the neighbourhood again.

BEST local coffee shop in the entire Atlanta area, hands-down!! Quality drinks selection (both espresso and craft beer!), artful preparation, and friendly community service. Visit just to experience it, or settle in and make it part of your neighborhood daily life!

I've come here several times, both to hang out and to do work. It's a nice change of pace from octane with a different sort of atmosphere and fewer crowds. Staff isn friendly and service is good. I like the chai tea latte here and the pour over coffees. They feature a guest roaster of the month (currently Portland based) and East Pole coffee. I've also had the ice coffee here in the summer. The espresso machine is a converted beer tap, hence the name. It's always pretty good quality wise and it helps justify the high price tags.

The coffee selection is very cool. They have a bunch of different coffees from all over the world and from here in Atlanta. The baristas are nice and Alyssa the manager is a gem. They also serve beer. Great family neighborhood spot.

This place has a unique decor. However, I hope the air conditioning was broken and it's not normally that hot! Nevertheless, the $4.68 cup of coffee I purchased was horrible!! The big guy behind the counter was really nice and tried to be helpful and recommended a coffee, but it was worse than awful. I'd refrain from asking their opinion on what to try on the menu. All-in-all, I had a good experience!!

Taproom Coffee Is a really pleasant coffee shop that has a small selection of beers available. Located at the Kirkwood they do offer some pastries and other snacks to dine on. The coffee shop is within walking distance of a few restaurants and shops and the staff was friendly as well.

Only major downside is minimal parking and if you go later in the day there are typically less bakery items available. However, that is to be expected.

Naturally-lit shop with free parking in the heart of Kirkwood. Be sure to try the Hopsintea or Beerspresso for a fun take on tea or coffee.

With Dunkin, I love being able to come in and get a deal and get some work done on my laptop. When I go someplace local, I think I just love the atmosphere. You can come in and see people genuinely enjoying each other's company. This cafe was no different. I can feel and see the unique vibe of the Kirkwood community.

I live right around the corner and Taproom was always a go to for me. A while ago, my 10 year-old niece and I started going in on Wednesday afternoons for our writing tutorials. She really loved the bagels, hot chocolate, and the tip jars with two normally clever conversation starter choices. We especially enjoyed playing a game of battleship after doing work and she delighted in sitting at the bar and getting water from the “beer” tap. It served as a convenient and pretty awesome place to work while enjoying a few pastries, coffee, and hot chocolate.

However, we had to find a new go-to spot after about four weeks in a row of terrible service from one of the regular workers. I don’t recall his name. This guy threw my niece’s change on the counter, is verbally short with some children, and generally treats some customers as if he is doing them a favor by serving them. After two weeks of hot chocolate that tasted like warm, barely flavored milk, she asked for extra chocolate only to get a sneer and a product that tasted the same, if not worse. My niece, again, she is ten years old, finally told me that she didn’t want to stay or go back after the last time because, “I don’t like the way he makes me feel.” So we left, threw away the disgusting hot chocolate and tripped up the block for a much better experience.

While I love the fact that there is a coffee shop right here in the heart of Kirkwood, I’m extremely disappointed that this gentleman’s lack of self-awareness (or intentional nastiness) has ruined the experience. It may not be as convenient, but the service and goods at Karvana have proven far more consistent and pleasant.

Quality focused coffee and beer shop. Coffee menu features selections from Atlanta's own East Pole Coffee Co. as well as a rotating guest roaster! Nice pour over selection in addition to all the normal espresso offerings. Oh, and unique nitro-iced coffees and teas! Beer is mostly (all?) from Georgia breweries!
