50 Best Coffee Shops near Clarkston

“The atmosphere here strikes a nice balance between lively and peaceful. There were plenty of people around, but it never felt crowded or overwhelming. I enjoyed an iced coffee and spent some time reading, which turned into a very relaxing afternoon.“

“I found this place after a long night of travel delays & cancellations, and it was everything I needed. I ordered a mocha latte and chocolate croissant and they were both so good. Enjoyed them at an outdoor table and it was perfection. The staff was very kind, and the chicken salad sandwich I bought for later was very tasty as well. Highly recommend.“

“Met 5 friends here for lunch on Monday based on recommendation of one couple. We were all so pleased. The owner was gracious and informative, offering suggestions to those of us unfamiliar with the cuisine.
We shared dishes of Vegetable Combos, Awaze Tibs and another less spicy meat dish. We scraped our plates clean. We have converted some wary friends to this style of eating.
Friendly, clean, and well decorated business establishment. We were all charmed by the owner!“

“The Columbia slow pour 🤤 ☕️ Amazing quality. Will be back 🙏“

“I've forgotten to drop a review for Waller's for an embarrassingly long time. This place is a gem. The coffee is excellent, they have in house baked goods, there is ample seating indoors and outdoors, there are community events and they sell things from local crafters. I go here minimum once a month. I have one of their shirts. Love Waller's, if you love coffee give them a try.“

“Adorable and affordable high tea with delicious sandwiches and treats off the Beltline. We loved our *par-tea* here! Try the Georgia Peaches tea!“

“I enjoyed the matcha here, and they had 3 vegan pastry options which was a nice surprise. The drink itself was smooth and well made, though I do wish it was a little sweeter. Overall, definitely a good option if you’re looking for a cozy coffee stop with plant-based choices. Updated from previous review on 2026-05-21“

“Taproom is our go to spot for meetings, great coffee and excellent service. Been a neighborhood staple/homebase for years. Love this place.“

“A Friday evening well spent 🥂🎶 > Food = perfectly made (with gluten free bread!) > Wine flight = 10/10 > Staff = the sweetest > Music = the vibe we all need Thanks, Ollie’s!“

“I had the ABC chicken sandwich. it was 🔥🔥🤯🔥🔥 Jalapeno American cheese, Asian slaw, sweet pickles, boomin' mango habanero sauce“

“I heard about The Black Coffee Company from someone this morning because they knew I was looking for a space to do some work with good coffee. I immediately drove over and when I tell you Crystal made me the Killer Mike and she made it a little sweet for me and Brianna topped my taste buds off with the avocado toast with everything on it. This is my new favorite spot. The music is great, not too loud that you can’t work but just right. I highly recommend them. They are a whole vibe.“

“Our new find in Atl‼️❤️ We love everything about it. …. So does our doggie 🐾“

“We have some of the whole bean coffee and find it so smooth! Looking at buying more!!“

“This place is very cozy and the cashier was so nice! The banh mis are made fresh so it does take a little longer but it’s so worth it. Everything is well balanced. Bread was fluffy and crunchy. The Vietnamese sauce compliments the juicy crispy wings. No dipping sauce needed for their wings. The grilled pork banh mi - get the pate added and it’ll set it off. The pork was tender and smoky. They have sugarcane juice which was the best refreshing drink for a hot summer day. It’s a modern Vietnamese fusion spot that actually does it right. It still tastes Vietnamese but in a different way. Will definitely be coming back and would recommend!!“

“This place has been around for a few years now. I don't come here often, and I'm sitting here sipping on a flat white and wondering why not. I usually come and have a coffee on their patio. Near the park and on a relatively quiet street. Come alone or with some friends.“

“Mokhaport is a coffee shop featuring Ethiopian and Yemini coffee and teas. They also offer smoothies and food items with a sizable quantity of Halal, Vegan, Gluten-Free, and Soy-Free offerings. The majority of their food is made in-house. Mokhaport has an intimate seating area with Wifi and a generous number of electrical outlets. Mokaport has some of the best customer service for a coffee shop. The owner is friendly and willing to answer questions and provide recommendations regarding the menu offerings. You are actually provided a sample of your coffee/tea item before it is finalized. My go-to drink is the Dirty Adani (Sweet Yemini Chai with a shot of coffee) with brown sugar and oat milk. Pro tip: save your receipt via text, which makes it easier to duplicate your beverage order once you have found the perfect drink. I visit this coffee shop every time I am in the area, as the coffees, teas, and service are impeccable. I am looking forward to trying the smoothies, cheesecake, and some of the savory food products like the beef patty and cheese pastry.“

“Awesome atmosphere that is simple and well done. Great coffee, food, and wonderful staff.“

“In from Dallas where I thought nothing could beat my favorite lemongrass but oh Atlanta. Thai Best Thai I’ve ever had!!! Food was amazing the flavors all so good and our server Suji was the nicest. Amazing food. Don’t miss this gem!! The woon sen and crispy rice larb were so so good and the masa man roti. Wow just wow.“

“Wonderful baked goods with tons of vegan options. The owner is super friendly and took the time to describe products and ingredients we weren’t as familiar with and made great suggestions. The tiramisu cups are 🔥! Always a must to stop here when we’re in town.“

“Came in today with lots of challenging things happening in my life. I got asked how I was doing by the staff, and I gave some modest answer. Then they followed up and genuinely cared and wanted to listen. I was blown away. Then they proceed to bring me water and a big bottle to refill as I want. I mean geez this is like next level hospitality, made my day!!“

“I have travelled all over the world and I have been to countless coffee shops and at the end of each experience I missed my daily cup of dark roast from Corner Cup. The “Snooze Button” Dark Roast is my favorite. I like their coffee so much I bought a few bags for home; something I have never done before. Every morning I have a cup of Corner Cup Coffee. This is the best coffee shop in Atlanta when it comes to quality coffee! Coffee: Excellent Service: Excellent Price: Excellent Locations: Tucker / Decatur ✅ Bathrooms: Clean Rewards / Points: Good Management: Friendly & Accessible Recommendation: open a location in Dunwoody / Sandy Springs / Roswell 😊“

“Walked in right as they were putting out bags of coffee beans for sale. The lady was super sweet while explaining to me the different beans (I’m a bit new to the making quality coffee at home scene). She definitely made the experience a positive one!“

“Very friendly atmosphere. Cold brew selection is very good. Their black coffee is simply delicious.“

“Phenomenal service from a family /locally owned coffee shop. Such a great menu.. love“

“Truly enjoyed my Cafe Con Leche! First timer hear and certainly will be back. Coffee was excellent, pastry was yummy and loved the chimichurri sauce to go with my empanadas! Staff was super helpful and pleasant!“

“today was my first time. I love their coffee my new go to over Starbucks the crepe stand outside superb“

“The service is incredible and the entire team is knowledgeable on the menu and its health benefits“

“Fantastic coffee and delightful barista. There is a lot of knowledge in this building. I will happily return!“

“Great customer service, love the wings and the desserts are delicious.“

“Great neighborhood coffee shop!“

“Schaff Shop has truly become my home away from home. The atmosphere is so comforting—the vibe is inviting and fun, but it’s also somehow the perfect relaxing place to settle in and get work done. The staff are warm, friendly, funny, and genuinely make it such a great place to spend time. And I’ve loved every drink I’ve tried!

My favorite part, though, is that I can bring my dog Benny with me. Being able to have him sitting inside with me while I work makes this place extra special. It’s rare to find somewhere that feels this welcoming, comfortable, and genuinely like a little community. I absolutely love it here.“

“Our favorite date night dessert spot. The. Best. Gelato. PERIODT!!!“

“I happened to find Jayida Ché while waiting to meet up with a friend. I got an iced Irie Punch dressed up by the tearista and I was immediately hooked. I haven’t been back to ATL to get any in person but I’ve ordered several hauls during quarantine and it’s been a perfect treat in a really tough time. Make sure to try the Masala Chai with Oat milk ❤️“

“This is my new happy place! I got some blue butterfly pea flower tea to take home, and a cocoa hazelnut mate for the ride. Everything was fantastic and the service was great. I do highly recommend! :-)“

“The madras Kapi latte was really good and so is the kapi cake. I feel like the furniture setup is a little weird (height etc not comfortable enough for adults and the front feels kinda empty) and the music wasn’t super relaxing. But overall a great place to read a book and I like the seats on the floor“

“Love the food and the staff and Martin and the lavender latte. Sad the fabulous French toast didn’t come with REAL MAPLE SYRUP! Perhaps charge extra for customers who don’t want corn syrup/ fake maple syrup!“

“Cozy. Cute. Great coffee. Friendly staff. Give up Starbucks and come here!“

“My favorite place ever. The vibes are wonderful always! During the day you can study, work or enjoy the weather outside and during the evening you can relax with a beer. Gigi and Connor are the best baristas and definitely hope Butler is cooking your breakfast. Would recommend!!!“

“Awesome coffee and tea shop! Great food! They sell bagel spreads, pimento cheese, etc to go as well! Pastries from scratch! It’s a wonderful place!“

“me and my fiancée got a caramel macchiato, pimento cheese sandwich and a scone. Great place with a nice vibe😊 will absolutely come back!“

“Best donuts in town. We moved to Smyrna and still drive all the way to Edgewood. The Mister Crunchy is incredible!“

“Bellwood Coffee feels like the upscale, grown-up cousin of Rev—chic, modern, and effortlessly welcoming. Just a hop from the clay banks of the Chattahoochee, it’s a true third space with subtle nautical charm: step inside and it feels like boarding a well-designed ship, setting out toward new ground where people, place, and presence quietly meet. The vibe is calm-bougie but warm—hints of jazz-lounge energy, comfort-food ease, and a room that invites you to linger long enough to find your next friend… or maybe more. It’s the “third-place living room” we all wish our community had: stylish, relaxed, and full of possibility. Only wish: More rooms to mix and mingle. When it’s busy, the couch fills up fast—which is also how you know you’ve found a good harbor.“

“Beautiful space, bathroom is super clean. The decorations feel like home. THE FOOD IS THE BEST IN ATLANTA!!!! Tastes made from the heart, love in every bite. Dessert and cookies are incredible too. Honestly grateful I came to this spot. 100/10 AMAZING 😍🤤“

“Came here after recently moving across country to the area and I was happy to find a good coffee place that opens as early as it does.

Coffee is good and so are the pastries at affordable prices. The baristas were cool dudes too so I would definitely recommend!“

“This isn’t just a good place. It’s a great place. Good coffee, Alvin’s pastries, puzzles, games, art and … a master bike mechanic, all in a low key but fun atmosphere.“

“Ordered an Ube latte and a triple chocolate chip cookie, the latte was delicious but overpriced for the size, or maybe it's just regular price for Atlanta. The cookie was kinda stale, maybe it would've been better if it was freshly baked.“

“We tried South End SmokeHouse for the first time today and it was so good! The kids loved the mac & cheese and my husband and I shared a BBQ plate with pork and brisket. We got a lot of food and we enjoyed the atmosphere a lot! Can't wait to try their new location!“

“Every visit to Atlanta includes a trip to RD for me. The. Best.“

“Have missed the location in Poncey-Highlands--visited the VaHi store today and forgot how GREAT the cold brew is! Miss y'all, but will try to get to VaHi more often!!!“

“I recommend that everyone tries the Good Times Latte it's a little bit of heaven in a cup.“
