Panacea CoffeeHouse, Cafe and Roastery

Great Sunday Brunch. Great quiche. Outdoor beer garden is really cute.

Great sandwiches, great scones, and holy cow have they got good coffee, roasted right on site every week. Everyone is super helpful and friendly. Buckets of seating and the comfiest atmosphere around. 6/5 stars!

Everything about this place is perfect. They have great customer service, great environment, and a perfect location. If you haven't been here, you are missing out!

My only complaint is that it only stays open until 5pm. I get done with school at 3:30, and could get there by 4, only giving me an hour to get settled and work on homework. Wish they stayed open til 7pm. Other than that, the service is always great, the drinks are always hot and fresh, and the atmosphere was relaxed and spacious. Also, the back deck area with the rushing water is wonderful! This really is a unique place and my favorite coffee shop even visited.

Fantastic setting, spacious with tons of great seating. Outdoor tables right by the river. It's beautiful.

Wish I could be as excited about their espresso. I found it quite dark and bitter. Perhaps that works if your average customer is used to Starbucks. I also felt the lunch options were way overpriced. $10 for a ham and Swiss?

I'll be back when I'm in Waynesville. Great spot to hangout. I'll just get something other than espresso to drink next time.

Great coffee shop with lots of space and a sweet kitty outside!! Trout lox was great and pretty unique! Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area.

Always always amazing!!! Get the Buddha's Belly salad. HUGE!!

Great location, solid architecture. I could not find any electric plugs to work, and the internet would not connect.

Super cute coffee shop. Had no idea Waynesville was hip! Really nice, sort of industrial loft atmosphere, awesome back deck and garden by the river. Coffee is solid. Didn't get to try the food as it was too late in the day but the menu looked tasty.

I live in Charlotte and order all my coffee beans from Panacea by mail. I love trying all the single origin options as well as the beautifully dark roasts. Truly spectacular. As a coffee picky aficionado, I highly recommend!
