“Great donuts. But their hours are wrong. Have been there 5-10 minutes after they “open” multiple times and either no one is there and lights are out or the man up front says he’s sorry he’s running behind and it will be 20 minutes. Just honor the hours you post.“
“This is definitely one of my favorite local coffee shops! The customer service has always been amazing, whether you go there to study, or meet a friend, the atmosphere is very cozy and relaxing, their coffees are very smooth in taste, and their pastries are excellent! Definitely recommend this place! ?“
“Everything from special coffee, kid hot chocolate, humus with veggies, brownies, and cinnamon rolls is amazing. Everyone is so friendly and happy to see you. Location is nice to just walk around the square and shop there for gifts or next door at Through the looking glass.Dietary restrictions: Few gluten free or sugar free optionsKid-friendliness: Perfect place to hang out with the kiddos.“
“What an amazing treasure to find! The doughnuts are unbelievably good but they have so much more than doughnuts. Bagels, Buscuits, and so much more! We had a large order put in the day before and it was ready on time the next morning. The bread is so fluffy but with a great crust. You have to try it.“
“Very nice place to stop and grab a coffee and a bite to eat, with a relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. Great place for lunch or brunch or just coffee.Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating to my family member who needed a caffeine free coffee“
“Dietary restrictions: I must admit, when I first discovered the restaurant on door dash, I was skeptical. I mean, it looked appealing, but you note how some restaurants “fudge” that. Well, Blossom Bowl has never deceived me. I have been seriously hooked to the bowls at this establishment. I have now gone from ordering delivery to stopping by and picking up my order before work. My option is to build my own, but the selection of the different toppings and bases makes every bowl a treat each morning. Yes! Each morning. I get their bowls every week day, and am proud to say so. Somehow, it just makes every day better. More tolerable. Thank you, Blossom Bowl ? .“
“Staff is great. Very pleasant place to just sit and rest for a bit. Coffee is good. Why not patronize a small business that is also doing good by giving purpose to those with a need for dignity. For me…supporting local folks and local businesses like this is far better than feeding franchises and national corporations.Come have a coffee or drive Thu and smile,“
“Holds to the high quality K-Brew standards of coffee and service. They have cute decor modeled after the original store on N Broadway. Their main problem is simply atmosphere as it's normally loud and crowded. And their tea is ridiculously expensive!“
“I love kung fu tea because of the red bean fish cakes. They're a staple for when I'm visiting Knoxville. When it comes to the tea, however, it tends to be a little too sweet even when I order it less so. The oolong is the only flavor I've really liked, the matcha was bad and the lychee was just too sweet. Great food though:)“
“Very yummy blueberry fritter! I had to ask the ladies running the store today to let me loiter for a couple hours since uhaul (next door) had no waiting room for a 2 hour service and Beaver Dough-Joe was kind enough to let me stay and have a seat inside in the heat! I'll come back just for the kind gesture but the donuts are even more incentive! ?“
“Doughnuts are off the hook delicious. Took 2 dozen to our employees who said some of the best they have had! Came by at 6:30 am knowing lines get long later in the morning. Person working the counter was very courteous and quick. Will be back!!!!!“
“I love Scooter’s Coffee. I come by a couple times a week on my way to work and usually get a Cappuccino. Cappuccino’s here are very good. Creamy and not bitter or overly sweet.The cups are so cute! I love that the cups are cute year round and not just for the holidays.Customer service is quick and efficient as well as professional and kind.“

“I'm not sure who needs to know this, but they have vegan donuts! My husband, who is deathly allergic to dairy, has safely ate their donuts and loves them! The service has been great each time. I, personally, am not a fan of donuts, but I thoroughly enjoy their honey glazed donut. 10/10“
“What a cute place!! It's pretty and pink and such a perfect spot to grab a tea with the girls or your kids. The brown sugar brulee is my jam! There are tons of options and the staff is helpful in explaining tastes and what to put in drinks. The new corn dogs then have are amazing as well. I know they are more of a big cheese stick, but the potatoes and spice on the outside are great!“
“This place is really great. Glad to hear they are expanding to the food market.I do wish they would open earlier. I often wish I could stop by after dropping my son at school for a breakfast drink.Kid-friendliness: My son and his friends love this place.“
“Love this place. I got a rose city, green tea lemonade and it is so good. I forgot to ask for rebel shots when I was ordering and they were happy to add it in at the window. These little things make my whole day. Thank you Liza, Owen, Sarah, and everyone in the dutch bros team. <3“
“Our coffees were great for the long trip. They had a nice full taste.They ladies there were super nice. I had actually talked to one of them about the plants they had. I wanted to know what type of plant it was. She asked if I wanted it. She said it was struggling to get enough light and what is needed.I just wanted to let her know that it was starting to get new leaves and is lookibg more vibrant.“

“Being a Veteran is a call to serve for me. I served faithfully in the USAF for 23 years with no regrets. We have been blessed with recognitions from many businesses. We may ask if there is a military discount, but we never expect it and are very thankful for i when it is givent. For many of us who had missions not that favorable or rewarding we knew we had a purpose and did our best. I don't know where I was mentally this day but after getting all the answers from my questions about their donuts one of the owners (Jimmy), he boxed up my order, gave me an extra donut for my first time being there and then gave me this incredible discount for being a veteran . It blew my mind, I got choked up and took me to some place I hadnt been in a while. It's amazing how kind actions from stranger can really change your moment. I am in total support of status dough not only for the kindness shown, but the incredible delicious quality of the donuts they make. My favorite donut is the old fashion and they have the best I have ever had with the exceptions of the hot fresh ones out of the grease at a Publix in Florida where I worked as a kid during the 80's. They also had a seasonal Pumpkin old fashion that came in a close second. Their cinnamon Roll was like an elevated Honey bun. They were so much lighter and the glaze had to be honey because it tasted so natural and not super overdone sugar. My wife thought the Boston creme was amazing (her favorite donut). They make all the fillings and glazes from scratch and it really was proven when I bit into the blueberry Paczki ( polish donut). The filling bursted with fresh blueberry toast without overly sweet and the brioche dough was phenomenal. The final surprise was when jimmy recommended the vegan snickerdoodle donut. I don't care for snickerdoodle cookies and obviously not a vegan, but he had me already sold. When I brought it home my family loved it (even the picky 8 year old grandson) and it is now my number 3 favorite. I cant wait to see what the rest of the holidays come out with. They have me as a number one customer.“
“This will be my third time coming here today I had ordered the mocha milk tea with regular Ice, regular sweetener and tapioca pearls and I also ordered a side of chicken bites. It’s a really really good place to come to if you’re really interested in Boba.“
“The service at Scooter's is always exceptional and fast. I tried the cake bites this time and they are really yummy. I always enjoy their coffee as long as I stop by before noon time to get the special Fresh Brew of the day. I did notice one thing on this trip to Scooter's, that they're fresh brews are at a new price! Three times the price that I had paid in the past for a large. Small $1, medium $2, and large $3 through their coffee is always really good, hot and fresh. This will probably reduce the frequencies of my visits to Scooters.“
“Just had lunch there for the first time. The food Wes fresh and very good. Was able to order a French press with fresh coffe that was good. Got eggs scrambler Florentine. Was tasty. One large pan sketch on the side to try and it was very big and think. Will be back to try other menubitems that looked “
“The staff is amazing and I love the charm of the inside portion with the mix match chairs and the twinkle lights! Next time I'll be bringing my computer to work from here for a bit. Staff is super friendly and lots of good options for a girl who has lots of allergies (gluten & dairy included). Their mission is also great as portions of the money goes to adoption and foster care support!“
“My absolute favorite place in Knoxville! The drinks are amazing, food is delicious, and the support Sunago gives to Knoxville's makers is incredible. The staff is extremely friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. Sunago makes you feel at home every time!“
“My first time eating donuts from Duck Donuts, and they were amazing! I don’t think I’ll ever eat a doughnut from anywhere else! When I told the lady at the counter it was my first time there, she went over lots of the selections. She explained how the donuts were made, and the options I could choose from to customize my own donut, although they had plenty to choose from. If you haven’t tried Duck Donuts, I highly recommend them.“
“Probably makes the best latte I’ve ever had! Their lattes are far better than chain coffee options like Starbucks or Dunkin, and are less expensive than Starbucks by a dollar or two. They also have a huge variety of flavors. If you like lattes, support local!“
“I can't think of a single negative thing to say about Powell Nutrition and all the ladies that work there even the owner is so nice! I go daily and always met with a smile, small talk and a perfect drink! And don't get me started on the shakes! I would never expect any of these ladies to bring my drink out to me...they aren't a delivery service!“
“One of the best accidental restaurant finds in a LONG time!!! We went on it's opening day, completely by accident and I couldn't have been happier with our choice.We started with the falafels and grape leaves and they both were fabulous. My wife ordered the beef shawarma plate and I got the gyro. Again, both were delicious.Afterwards, we ordered what was one of the best coffees I've ever had to go along with our baklava. If you dine in you MUST have one, if you truly love coffee.The service was incredible. Magic couldn't have been a better host. It was as if we were having dinner in his home.The atmosphere is almost tranquil when you mix in the food, coffee and hospitality.My wife and I will most DEFINITELY be regular customers.I HIGHLY recommend this establishment!!!“
“Lord just riding pass had to turn around I worked there years ago so it's been a long time since I've had a straight off the line fresh and hot ? but yes worth my turn around. But lady working the widow was rude she forgot we could hear her I guess she was not pleasant by far but another working must have seen that the lady was needing a cigarette break so she let her take one. We didn't have a big order just 10 hot glazed 2 raspberry that's it and we was the only car in line. Yeah take the kids in get a donut ?“
“I love bearden nutrition! my siblings and I have been going here since it opened in 2018, it was a safe haven for us during covid and a fun activity for us to bike to! Everyone inside is so nice and helpful and honest, and their story is so compelling. Are there some shakes that don’t taste exactly the same as the super sugary dessert they are supposed to match? sure! but even my 9 year old brother can understand that maybe a healthy replacement to brownie batter isn’t going to taste the same. all the reviews saying “herb life” this and that are hysterical. congrats! you can pass a third grade reading level, but your social skills might need some help. bearden nutrition never hides what they put in their teas and have actually helped other places start their own business. also to all the idiots leaving reviews about go find a place with real fruit, hate to break it to u but places like smoothie king or tropical smoothie use juices 99% of the time filled w sugars! and most likely no real fruits ❤️ also don’t understand how you can go into a local business ran by such a lovely family with their daughters hand writing on the wall and leave being a jerk. some people just are sad dumb a holes. END OF STORY! love bearden nutrition!!!! hate idiots!!! love herb life (;“
“This downtown gem is amazing!! Don't come to just eat. Come to relax and let your mind wander. Pick up a book and take a seat anywhere in this location, after you order. Their lemonade is good too. The staff are amazing!!! Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.“
“This is the healthiest juice place in town, they use real ingredients and they are fresh. I’ve been going here for many years and I enjoy it very much.. my only complaint is their juicer I think is on its last leg, recently every time I go my drink has A LOT of pulp. They normally strain it through a strainer, so just make sure they do that.“
“Never a line here! The baristas are so nice, and make really good drinks to provide me grocery-shopping fuel. Plus, I can get Kroger points when I get my coffee here. Mamas, you are foraging for your family! Go ahead and treat yourself ♡♡“
“Ordered a dirty chai before work today so nice to not have to wait 30 mins in drive thru i had amazing conversation and my drink was the best chai I've ever had. Great service! very kind barista name was (lynda or lindsay) and quality and fast despite her appearing to be the only person working. i felt welcome and still was on my way and got to work early. My new go to in the mornings.“
“This location is honestly better than Starbucks store. The staff is always so friendly and so kind, they memorize most of their customers orders, they go above Nd beyond to go the extra step just to make me happy.I was super against Starbucks for so many years. But visiting this location has had me become a regular.“
“Great coffee if you happen to be in Kroger and have an coffee craving while shopping. Very nice baristas and amazing coffee. I love the Carmel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino. The crunchies in it are awesome. It's expensive but worth the cost for the happiness it brings me. Nothing like that first sip of Starbucks coffee.“
“From previous reviews, it seems this location has had some issues in the past. Well, they certainly had it figured out when I visited today. The store was clean and well cared for. The chatter spilling out of the grill area was lively, friendly, positive. Our food was about as good as it gets. Hot, fresh, made right and presented neatly. This was my son's chosen birthday meal, and it made his day that much more special. A great place to stop when you visit the pool and playground nearby!“
