Coffee Shops near Powell

“Amazing, warm and good vibes coffee shop. Small town feel, lots of seating and of course excellent coffee and food choices! Can't wait to go back!“

“The Powell, TN at Emory Road & I 75 Starbucks gets it. Friendly & inclusive, the people here make my day every time I stop in on my frequent interstate trips. What a breath of fresh air! Oh, yes, since you’re wondering…the bev and food offerings are great, the restrooms are clean and this well-situated property has ample and easy to access parking. But it’s truly the people that make this spot shine. And shine they do, ever so brightly. Thank you! 🌻“

“Starbucks is good, but getting out is always an issue. This is because of the people that hold everyone up, because they insist on making a left turn, instead of turning right and making a U-Turn.

Please put up a NO LEFT TURN sign.“

“Great place for our pit stop route to Atlanta, Georgia. Bought coffee our energy drink and kids had cone ice cream. They prefer Canadian which is more creamier but they enjoyed the play place which they found a bigger in size as compared to Toronto’s.

Kid-friendliness: Play place“

“This is an awesome place if you love coffee, want to learn more about coffee, and just enjoy great company. So much fun and they are incredibly helpful. I had never done coffee this way but I left feeling a little more confident and can’t wait to go back. This isn’t a grab and go coffee place- this is a full on experience!“

“super good food and even better customer service“

“One afternoon on my laptop at Seed Coffee Knoxville was all it took to realize I’d found the best coffee shop in Knoxville for getting real remote work done. The place nails the sweet spot between lively and distraction‑free—something not all Knoxville coffee shops manage. First thing that hooked me? The Sonos speakers. In addition to giving quality sound, they have good placement. They sit down low, not too far from ear level. Most of the other coffee shops in Knoxville mount them up high like they do in department stores. Their better placement results in a full, warm sound that fills the room without having to turn the volume to 11—immersing you in the sound while remaining distraction free. Small detail. Huge difference. The layout and decor sets Seed apart. It's set in a daylight basement with windows on one side, letting in constant natural light to keep you awake while still maintaining the cozy nook atmosphere that we all love about the best coffee shops. The shop is split into two rooms, letting you choose between vibes. Oftentimes, one is more chatty while the other room remains quiet. Plus, they keep a little jungle’s worth of plants that lets the room breathe. The furnishing is just as flexible. You can sink into a leather couch, perch on a high bar stool (I use this as a standing desk), or settle in at one of the many two-tops. Their coffee holds its own. I’m a black‑drip guy and theirs pours smooth. No burnt bite. No weird aftertaste. Order “for here” and they hand you a ceramic mug. A warm touch that carries quality. And fast Wi-Fi, too. If you’re hunting the best coffee shop in Knoxville for remote work, this is it. Walk in, plug in, and get st*ff done.“
