Glory Bell Coffee

There is no other place like this in Waco... possibly in all of Texas. At 4,000 square feet of space, it also rivals the largest Starbucks in Texas (also 4,000 sq ft) which is located in Houston. It's designed for everybody, including families. Including kids. In fact, it's a great space for families with kids to come and hang out. But it's also a fantastic space for remote workers, students, etc., to come work, study and get stuff done. Great location, plenty of parking. Glory Bell is also open late Thursday - Saturday evening, too! So if your brain kicks into high gear at night, then Glory Bell coffee is a great place to go for your caffeine fix.

Beautiful place! I enjoyed meeting up with a friend for a Bible study. There was Christian music playing the whole time, which just added more to the experience! The password for wifi is also a Bible verse - so fun! Shout out to Tyler for being awesome & recommending a great drink (chunky monkey latte).
Only downside was the price of the latte. It was over $7 for an iced latte. But it was good 👍 a little sweet, so just keep that in mind!

I def plan on coming back!

love every experience here. favorite coffee is the cinnamon roll latte. i love having a local coffee shop to work at while my toddler plays! wide open space with plenty of room to move around and the service is always great.

Our family really enjoyed our visit to Glory Bell Coffee.

My dirty chai was deliciously strong. They have many good drink options. My two favorite things about this place is the worship music and the family friendly atmosphere... It's a great hang out spot!

There are many things for the kids to do while you sip your drink and read a good book or catch up with a friend. There's a container room that has a play area complete with LEGO, a peg wall, a play kitchen, and books. There's also a kids seating area in the main room, along with corn hole, giant connect four, and a train table.

If you're needing a quiet space, they have a small meeting room. The corn hole and connect four can echo a bit, so keep that in mind if you *need* quiet.

I'm not sure if it's a promo for their grand opening or if it's a permanent thing, but we got free bite size cookies with each drink and they were a yummy lemon flavor.

Anyways, I highly recommend this place! It's going to be one of our new favorites.

Very nice atmosphere. It’s spacious and has a play area for children. Coffee is stronger than most and they don’t go too sweet on the flavors. Fiancé and I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast burritos. The salsas were both hot and very flavorful.

Great place! Not enough coffee places - fabled and common grounds were always exploding out the seams. And so cool that it’s attached to a church doing ministry.

This place is such a good vibe. You will want to come bring some friends and stay awhile. I had the Iced Chai and it was nice. I personally would come back and bring friends. The price is right there with Starbucks. I do believe the experience is worth it. Parking is hard to find especially when they have church going on as well but, I would endure for the experience….lol

Glory Bell Coffee is in a great location for downtown. The atmosphere is welcoming and the chai tea, which is my hot drink of choice, is really good. I also love that you are offered a small soft delicious cookie with your drink purchase. It is also a great place for me to read and do work. The service is attentive and friendly. And it has good lighting. I encourage you to try it!

Great coffee. And a fantastic place to hang out with friends or to study alone. And if you are interested the church service on Sunday was great. My new favorite coffee shop

This place was nothing short of amazing. Jesus + Coffee = A Good Time👌🏽. The environment is calm and inviting. They have so many tables & seats in building. This place was made for all ages — Kiddos to Older adults.
