I stop here often and am never disappointed. The selection of pastries is great- sweet and savory. The espresso drinks are my go to, and the seasonal drinks are creative and delicious.

Shawn and Meg are pioneers in this town! Brought the 1st gourmet beans from around the globe to the downtown community over 10 years ago, still making the magic beans hop. Downtown Knoxville is a better place because of you and your kind staff. Kudos my friends! 🫵🏼🙌🏼

Stylish and friendly coffee shop in Old Town Knoxville. Only dropped in for coffee and cake, but both were wonderful. Spotlessly clean and stylish venue. Loved it ❤️

Adorable local shop with great atmosphere. Don't miss out on their hand-made from scratch pastries, they're the best in Knoxville. Great coffee too.

Eclectic coffee shop with various hot and cold brews as well as teas. They offer daily special drinks for people that want to try something different. The barista was friends and there were a lot of tables inside and about a half dozen tables outside.

This is a great coffee place. There is sitting everywhere inside and outside. The staff was so nice. The environment is a chill and peaceful. The bathrooms were clean.

Cool coffee shop in an alley. I'm not sure why but this place had something unique about it where you just want to sit down and relax while drinking coffee.

After reading the reviews it seems to be a consistent issue with the same women employee behind the counter. Very unprofessional and rude. She seemed to be annoyed to be taking my one cup of coffee order. Will not be getting coffee here again.

Wow! This place is great! It is everything you could want in a coffee shop. The atmosphere is cozy and warm with lots of comfortable seating and they even have Van Gogh's Starry Night painted on the ceiling. The building is old which adds a lot of character as well. The coffee was rich, not bitter, just perfect. I got a cappuccino and it was great for a cold day. I wasn't able to try any pastries this time but maybe I will in the future because they looked exceptional as well. I will definitely be back!

I enjoy the coffee (5stars) but the young lady (0 stars) that was working this morning was very rude and seemed annoyed when I asked a question about a pastry. This is my second interaction with her over the last few weeks and I will not return when I see her working.

We’ll got there at 650 for a quick coffee. Workers were inside but doors were locked. They said they close at 6p now. Disappointed their google listing isn’t updated and when I told them it said they were open until 7 the girl behind the counter just made a crying face at me.

In Knoxville visiting, & walking by happened upon this place! Its pretty good. The drip coffee is amazing and they have some delicious menu items that I would love to try all of them! 10/10 recommend.

the reason I’d get up early everyday. this coffee shop is so fulfilling. from the taste of real coffee to the quit comforting conversations going on around you. it’s just the right amount of peaceful, you can be alone but feel accompanied at the same time. get out of bed early if you have to:))

I have been living in Knoxville for exactly one year and Abbey, Bradey, Katey, Isabelle, Mattie, and the tall guy have made my Knoxville experience the absolute best. You will not find service or coffee offered by these guys anywhere else in town. They can only improve by allowing me to bring my cat inside.
