Monks Coffee Shop

Always great service, decent amount of seating options, not crazy loud but does get busy. Not a huge food menu but what they do have is delicious. They don't offer coconut milk; I think they had oat milk or almond milk for their alternative milk. Orders are usually very fast as well. It's next to a restaurant/diner of sorts if you decide you're hungry enough for a full meal.
Definitely a worthwhile spot in old downtown Abilene.

My favorite coffee shop in Abilene. Great selection of beverages at a very reasonable price.

P.S
Bring back the strawberry banana smoothies ASAP!!

A Pastor friend and I had coffee here and visited a while. Very nice and friendly atmosphere. Employees are great! Thank You!

Just happened to stop by on a road trip and this was one of the best coffee shops I’ve ever been to (I’ve been to a lot). The atmosphere was really chill and comfortable, there were a lot of flavor options, and my latte was incredibly good. They made a mistake with my drink but when I told them they apologized and fixed it immediately. The prices are also more reasonable than a lot of coffee shops these days. I’m almost considering going a little out of my ways to stop by again on the way home.

This was a wonderful find! Great atmosphere inside and the staff was very friendly and helpful during my visit! Totally recommend this establishment if you have time and are in the area. No drive thru and limited parking space but well worth the visit!

Best coffee in Abilene. They do go hard on the sugar though, so if your family has a history of diabetes say goodbye to your kidneys. I'd label it the quintessential Abilene coffee shop, capturing the small town, old time, homey feel--with a dash of quirkiness and class. The baristas have some of the best service for a coffee shop, an inclusive, welcoming space.

Very friendly staff that makes you feel welcome! They have amazing coffee and I love their scones! The prices are (imo) lower than chain coffee shops, and I love the atmosphere and little reading room they have. Only downside is the seating, they have a lot of tables, but most of them are for 3 or more people, they don’t have a little bar area or seats/tables for one. The parking is also a little annoying, but that’s because they’re located by other stores/businesses. Overall I would definitely recommend trying this place!

First time being here!
It was amazing. The staff was very friendly.
I wouldn't say it's the best place to study at night but I would honestly hear live music over studying any night.!

My wife and I love to go there for the iced caramel macchiato!

Easily the best coffee shop in Abilene. The best coffee, service, and atmosphere.
