43 Best Coffee Shops in Winston Salem

“I literally am addicted to their coffee and customer service. The morning squad is literally the best.“

“I was in Winston-Salem recently and stumbled upon this coffee shop and love it! It's got a great atmosphere and is backed by a good mission. The staff was very friendly and very helpful, the food was great, the wifi was fast, I even enjoyed their music selection! There are so many things that make this coffee shop unique and feel special. They have a pin board for customers to pin where they're from, they use playing cards for customer orders, they prioritize inclusivity in their hiring process. I will definitely be coming back here next time I'm in Winston-Salem.“

“Excellent coffee! Excellent croissant! Excellent service! Café bom! Croissante excelente! Serviço simpatico!“

“My girlfriend and I recently visited Winston Salem for the Thanksgiving weekend. I love cats and have always wanted to visit a cat cafe. When we were researching things to do, we found Crooked Tail on TikTok and made a reservation. When we got there, the staff was super nice and helpful. We had such a great time. The cats are so very well cared for. We do have two honorable mentions- Princess (the epitome of a sassy orange cat) and Sharpie (the sweetest cuddliest black cat). I got an iced latte and it was SO delicious. One of the best iced lattes I’ve had in a while. The barista was so sweet. We will definitely visit when we are back in Winston Salem again!“

“Great draft beer and garden patio. Kid friendly“

“We were there this past weekend for my cousins wedding reception and it couldn't have been any better. The coffee was delicious. The staff was so friendly. And the space definitely passed the vibe check. Can't recommend the mocha enough. :)“

“Melrose is THE place that gives out the cozy vibe...the interior design exudes an exquisite taste of class and social life, inviting indeed to all who intend to chill by having a cuppa ( tea or coffee) or simply a glass of wine...“

“The only coffee we crave and have to get every Saturday morning. 💕“

“I was so glad to find this spot. The staff were great, making sure I was happy, in spite of a minor issue with their grinder that made my pour over take a few minutes longer. It was well worth the wait. The scone by Elderflower bakery was amazing. The coffee was delicious. The barista answered all my questions. I left with a bag of coffee.“

“We were first timers today AND WE LOVED IT!!!! The iced latte was exactly what I wanted and needed! Super nice owner looking forward to visiting weekly!🖤 ☕️“

“Delicious lattes! The huckleberry crisp latte is to die for.“

“Coffee Park Airstream has created its own marvelus little world filled with charming, talented baristas and yummy baked goods from local shops. The old hippies meet for coffee there. The atmosphere is progressive, the shop conveniently located and the coffee is splendid.“

“The best experience I had in a coffee cup!“

“A very cozy place very good drinks everything looks very fresh and tasty 😋..!!! in hot days frozen watermelon drinks 🍹..!!“

“Great customer service! The weekly specials are awesome.“

“ADORABLE sweets shop. My family drives from Winston to go periodically because the ice cream and sweets are amazing. Tons of ice cream flavors, unique pastries, and of course cupcakes. Family friendly and super friendly service.

Parking: Gravel parking lot

Kid-friendliness: Lots of people bring their kids and they are welcome.“

“Absolutely delicious! Our favorite was the strawberry butterfly. My daughter and I have been looking for just this kind of donut shop in the area, and we were not disappointed. The staff was friendly and helpful. Give them a try!“

“Love this coffee shop. Staff is so friendly and that red velvet coffee is to die for!!! I stop here every time I’m in town.“

“I am always looking for local shops that have fantastic product I found one in Anchor coffee Great smooth coffee“

“Their coffee is the best!“

“You’ll walk through an alleyway that is decorated with a literary mural on both sides. You’ll find this little gem is snuggled into a nook with two entry ways. One door is to a coffee shop that had the tastiest coffee flight and exceptional customer service. The coffee shop is industrially furnished and decorated with beautiful pieces of art accompanied by relaxed lighting. The second door farther to the left is for the bookstore. This bookstore gives books a million vibes but someone took the time to list bookmarks for each section, explaining the types of books you’re looking at. They work with the community schools, as well. I’m not usually one for a “city” environment but this spot is a treasure!“

“Went here for a work get together. This is a cool little coffee and doughnut shop! The atmosphere inside is cozy and quaint. There is a decent amount of seating outside as well. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be going back!!

Dietary restrictions: Would be cool if they had some kind of gluten free options for a pastry or doughnut.“

“As of this current year, up until this morning, I was thrilled with this location. Being that I work in Clemmons, I used to frequent the Clemmons spot, but that location is absolutely awful. Nice baristas but the wait, and parking lot logistics are so very bad. I started to go out of my way, and used Cloverdale. For a long time, it was my favorite. Great baristas deliver yummy food & service. Then they started with a barista out in the drive through, which IMO, resulted in watery drinks and cold food. So, I started with Jonestown. Not as out of my way, but still backtracking. Anyway, great baristas and yummy food. I even got hit while waiting at the window, by the dude behind me. But even that, didn’t compare to today’s crappy visit. I don’t know where the regular crew were, and I understand that people have bad days, but when you work with the public directly, and you are the face people see before driving away, you really should be at your best and act happy with your job, or at the very least smile and be courteous. The guy seemed deflated and told me it was busy, though I have seen it way worse. I tried to make it better by smiling and attempting to chat, but he just stood there and didn’t engage. Then he handed me one bag, and said have a good day. I said I still needed another bag and a drink. He looked at me with a blank expression. I then looked into the bag, and didn’t see my sandwich. I notified him it was wrong and he didn’t seem concerned. I showed him the bag and he said, yea a bacon Gouda. I said yea but it’s sausage and cheddar, it’s wrong. Again, blank stare. Someone else came over, I repeat myself and that person looks in the bag and says oh they put sausage on it, and walks away. I say to original barista, they also put cheddar, it’s not the sandwich I ordered. He finally says oh yea we made the wrong one. Ugh. So he steps away and comes back with another bag (my bakery item). Hands it to me and says have a good day. I say, I am still waiting for the coffee and the correct sandwich. So he steps away again and hands me the correct sandwich, which looks like someone made it without and care - ciabatta is off the egg and bacon is dangling off the sandwich, fine whatever. I repeat about my coffee. He looks confused. I repeat my coffee order, he steps away, and then as he is handing it to me, he runs his hand all over the top of the lid, including the spout area 🤦🏻‍♀️ It started with ordering. I’ve ordered my coffee this way for years. A grande iced coffee - light ice - with caramel & cream, classic ok. But this time the barista didn’t understand and started asking me if I wanted caramel syrup or drizzle. I have no idea, no one has ever asked me?? Ugh. I’m not typically a complainer, I usually broadcast fabulous service and understand everyone has bad days. But, I don’t think I will return to this location, which doesn’t leave me with many other location options. Now I’m deflated and I’m heading into work. Will I let this crappy morning affect me? No, because I work with the public and that’s not how I roll.“

“We stopped in for the Talk bar incidentally as visitors from out of state. Our bartender Matt knocked it out of the park! He was so pleasant, social, and accommodating. He listened to our drink desires and created cocktails for us that were better than anything we could have ever dreamed of. We come from a town with a few swanky cocktail bars that “customize” drinks. They don’t hold a candle to the creations Matt has up his sleeve. PLEASE stop here and visit this man and this bar!“

“Went to The Remedy for the first time today. Great location. Excellent coffee, AMAZING hibiscus mimosa, and super cool staff. I loved the vibe. It was a great place to sit and get my work done today. I got to meet the owners too Burgess and his wife are real cool people. And I definitely look forward to meeting with them more and doing my own business from there more often!“

“Always delicious food in a friendly environment. Excellent value for the price, and stellar customer service. Don't miss out!“

“The coffee is good, and it's a pleasant place to sit and sip while you let them other folks seem comfortable cursing each other out on Jonestown Rd. Rather amusing really. Thanks for the experience. KCS AND COMPANY.

Parking: I Ride a blue scooter. I find parking easily.“

“I enjoyed a relaxing hour with a friend, as we got caught up on things. The shop was cheery, bright, and well-designed, The two baristas were professional and courteous.“

“They were out of Nitro cold brew but Kelsey the one taking my order suggested that I get the regular vanilla sweet cream cold brew with cold foam to replicate the nitro, and even as a former Starbucks employee I didn’t even think to do that and it turned out to be even better! Love that they try to accommodate here.“

“My partner and I had an amazing time there! The atmosphere was very calm, historic, and welcoming. The customer service was absolutely AMAZING, and all the rooms have so much character!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp for wheelchair access.“

“taste so good. Hope they bring a food truck to Denton nc.“

“Yummy food, great coffee, super fast service and friendly staff.“

“Stupendously great gelato! I've been spoiled by a now-closed (COVID) gelato shop in Charleston, SC, as well as one in Raleigh. I did my research, and have visited both locations of Cafe Gelato. Fantastic gelato, great people. Fortunately, if I go out of my way, it's right on my way. I wouldn't go anywhere else!!“

“Im writing this review just to highlight Annabelle and how amazing her energy, demeanor, and aura is. This is my second time meeting her at this Starbucks and she’s truly made me want to come to this Starbucks only. Thank you Annabelle for being one of the kindest people I’ve ever met <3“

“Angelina's Teas offers a great variety of teas, tea accessories, and gourmet food. It is such a pleasant place to shop. The owner is very knowledgeable and always so helpful. I couldn't recommend it enough. ❤️“

“The cashier told me I was beautiful and it made my day! I was feeling terrible because I went to the doctor and they told me I didn’t look like my profile photo (I’ve gained 40 pounds after having a baby) and let me tell you, this girl just made my day. Shout out to the sweet cashier with black hair @ 11:45 on 11-3-20. Made me smile on a bad day, I appreciate it. ❤️ love this location (Reynolda road). Y’all keep being amazing!“

“I go to this establishment to get coffee and to play chess on my tablet, I'll be honest I have never eaten the food, I also go to this establishment to enjoy the eye candy, that's street talk for looking at the beautiful older females. The place is so clean I believe they can possibly past a USA. Marine Corps inspection since I am a old school ex marine from the early 70s. They need a larger restaurant for inquisitive minds while starting the morning off great and unwinding after the work or play day is coming to end. I just love their efforts to be nice and kind and professional to all guest, who knows made one day the may put on their menu those old school grease brown pepper bag of oat meal cookies that many upon many of boys and girls enjoyed in the early years of 1960s 50s 40s and beyond. We I love the establishment stop by sometime and whoop my butt on the chess board. Peace and blessings to you all.“

“Amy served me in the drive thru, being a server I understand the importance of this. She did an outstanding job at making my morning in the short amount of time that we interacted. She was very sweet and kind. Also the chocolate covered strawberry frappe is absolutely amazing, whoever made it did a great job too. I will definitely be back“

“Camino is one of the best spot if you looking for pastries and vegan goods. I would recommend anyone to try out this spot.

Also Camino can you Guys change the blue Berry muffin. Been couple months now since you guys have that flavor.“

“so fresh !ll can't praise them enough great prices and always fresh. I love the decor and the employees are always friendly. THANK YOU ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Located just off the elevators from the Publix parking garage, this Starbucks is convenient to grab a hot or cold beverage before heading in to Publix to shop. The barista here made great recommendations and she made the caffeine-pick-me-up just perfect!“

“Ordered a club sandwich and chunky hashbrowns for carryout. A large portion of food and it was delicious!“
