I just got a latte from here, let me say they have a wonderful espresso blend, but that's just the start for this place, the atmosphere here is just wonderful and feels very reminiscent to a childhood hangout more than a place to get coffee. On top of that, the staff here is very courteous, let me say that I will be coming here again!

Never a disappointment. Perfect place to relax with a hot drink. Staff is always friendly. I stop every time I'm in town

Nice, laid-back and comfortable atmosphere. Great for working/studying/meeting up with friends. Super kid-friendly (I think they had a kid play room at one point but not sure if it's back since the pandemic). Staff is super friendly. However, the coffee itself is just okay compared to other local coffee spots in Knoxville. If you're a coffee connoisseur, this is not the spot for you.

Love the drive behind this place. We are visiting from out of town and stopped in after searching for a local flavor coffee shop. My only problem is the espresso shot was not used quickly when crafting my beverage and so it tasted burnt and old. Just add the milk with in 15 seconds and it would have been an “empty cup” for me too.

I had the coconut chai and lemon berry muffin (warmed). The consumables were delicious!! The service and atmosphere were equally great. This is a great place to hangout and meet with friends or bring your headphones and escape into a book or podcast while enjoying your food. There is a drive-thru if you're in a hurry but I recommend coming when you have time to relax at one of their many tables or couches.

I love coming every time I’m in Knoxville. The coffee is great, but my favorite item is the chai latte. The atmosphere is so cozy. It’s perfect for relaxing alone or with friends. And knowing I’m supporting local adoption is the best part.

We ave become regulars and go once or twice a week .the staff is amazing. The absolute best cup of chai latte ever! Wayyyy better than Starbucks. I love that they have a drive thru window and also options for ice cream and muffins. The environment is cozy and spacious. The employees are friendly. I will DEFINITELY be going back very soon. Amazing!

Delicious coffee, friendly staff and they give so much to the community.

This place was hopping (i.e. students doing group studies, adults doing remote work, senior group knitting, friends conversing, etc). It would be beneficial for some noise absorption panels as it can get pretty loud.

It took a solid 20 minutes to get my pour over medium roast with oak milk and a mixed berry scone. I wasn't a big fan of the coffee. The scone was a little dry for my liking and also small in size for its listed price. The staff were nice and welcoming. The establishment appeared clean.
