Very trendy coffee item place that might be a little cold in the winter time. it's very close to windows and has a garage flavor to it. But definitely a great meet up spot for friends, family and study sessions! Super cool vibes and music as well.

My favorite local coffee shop! They have wonderful, personable staff that get to know you. Always delicious coffee and espresso (and their donuts are awesome)! Very clean and modern atmosphere with lots of light-great place to hang out! Good hours and convenient West Knoxville/Farragut location as well!

The coffee was really good. I loved the atmosphere. It was in a converted gas station with mechanic bay doors. That made it spacious. Inside it was divided into conversation areas.
It's the first coffee house I've been to that had beer. That's great when someone in your group is not a big fan of coffee.

Great place to socialize and grab coffee! I am a big tea drinker and was able to find a yummy cup of green tea. I learned the hard way that there is in fact a morning rush or like during some weekdays. Would recommend to check out if you’re in the market for a new coffee spot.

Great coffee, they roast their own. Environment is very calming and relaxing. They converted and old auto service center into a fabulous place with both indoor and outdoor seating possibilities. Lots of outlets for devices as well. I find it a cozy place to go and write. Friendly service and a fine mocha. They also have a selection of pastries and muffins among other things.

After reading the great reviews, I came to this location at Turkey Creek. Parking was very difficult. I ended up parking alongside the street perpendicular to the store. Walked in and was captivated by the fantastic interior. It looked fresh, clean and modern- you don't see that too often in West Knoxville.
The baristas were friendly. It was pretty busy inside; the usual hipsterish/student coffee shop crowd with people on laptops...it felt more like Portland, Oregon, than Knoxville. And that is not always a good thing, in this case.
I lived in San Diego most of my life. Then Portland. I was hoping to get away from that 'coffee shop attitude' you have in the big cities...., and I encountered that with the owner by observing him a bit while we were there. He was constantly sitting at the bar- sort of being there to, I guess, control things- but then not really doing anything within the scope of managing the restaurant.
I have managed several restaurants and coffee shops, so I was a bit overtaken by that. Our drink order was wrong. My friend said it was ok- and we took it. Then I had to wait quite a long time for my drink while my friend had hers.
Then, there finally was a table and we had to ask for it to be cleaned (while another guy was just standing around- the female and male at the counter were doing all the work). The friendly younger guy (who was also making drinks at the same time!) cleaned it for us. So him and the girl were basically doing everything while the owner was just 'hanging out.' So, that was a little off-putting. The owner would go behind the bar, then walk back to his Audi, and then go back at sitting at the bar (without a mask on the whole time, even though he has signs everywhere that state that a mask needs to be worn to interact with the baristas). Not really a friendly feeling from him. If I were the owner I would be less complacent. Go help clean a table. Jump in with the staff if there is a line. Walk around and acknowledge people. That gives a more welcoming atmosphere.
Yes, they have excellent coffee, but good representation by the owner goes with that. If you run a place, you need to like coffee just as much as enjoying the people that visit your place. I really am not waiting for the same type of attitude that you get in Southern California and Portland. Thats why we moved to Knoxville. Was hoping for more Southern hospitality.

Great little coffee shop for students, business, and hanging out in general. Staff was friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was very calm and clean. They also have a covered outdoor patio for nice days. Lots of coffee and tea options and not too pricy (everything ranges from about $3-$5)

Neat little coffee shop I stumbled upon. I felt like the choices were a little limited however my latte was made exactly how I wanted and the atmosphere is so nice! I would return when I am in the area.

Great place with more seating than you would think from the outside. Tasty coffee and a relaxed space.

Took my neice with us to get coffee and cocoa. We didn't know they did latte art on their drinks. My neice saw out drinks and was so excited and asked me if she would get one on her cocoa too. I told her I didn't know. She was VERY excited about her hot cocoa bear.
