Stopped in driving through town and was not disappointed. The pistachio flavored coffee was phenomenal!!!
Stopped by for my first time today, just as the owner (Jesse) was leaving for lunch. He insisted on opening right back up and taking care of me, and made me the best iced maple nut coffee I’ve ever had! Great coffee and even better service! 10/10 recommend!
Iced Southern Belle 10/10
I tried their hot Sweet Pecan coffee recently. They have a lot of syrup flavors that I've either not encountered as frequently or that I really enjoy. There's a nice indoor seating area as well. I definitely recommend stopping by if you're exploring Rocky Top downtown (Coal Creek Museum, monuments, eateries!). She was very friendly and it was nice to see that they also were doing community work by organizing an angel tree for the holidays!
My husband and i are HUGE coffee people.
Coffee wasn't great. Black coffee was ice cold when we received it the first time went They offered to microwave but, no thank you. Wish they would've offered a pour over or a new pot.
My latte tasted as if they didn't use espresso but watered down brewed coffee. We came late so we didn't want to base this experience on the overall feeling of the store.
2nd time we went we came in the morning on a Friday. they were out of a lot of seasonal items as well as nondairy alternatives. They couldn't make cold foam due to the frother breaking. They didn't have lids for a lot of their cups sizes
My husband ordered a dirty chai and it just tasted like.watered down brewed coffee and hot water.. no espresso taste or Chai taste. I wish they would've put a note saying the things there were out of or.leading with that because everything I chose something it was "sorry can't do that" and it was becoming frustrating. But as a small business with a couple and their child we didn't want to just leave.
The overall cleanliness really threw us off as well. A lot of stuff cluttering the front room like bags of stuff and vacuums. Crumbs all over the floor.
It just was not a good experience and unfortunately won't come again. I was really surprised because of all the great reviews and was bummed :(

This place was an amazing find while in Tennessee last weekend! The shop is adorable on the inside and the people were so nice! I had the Maple Praline iced latte and it was absolutely delicious! Also got a Pumpkin Spice iced latte and it was one of the best Pumpkin spice lattes I have ever had and I love pumpkin flavor! Would 1000% recommend going here!

Nice owners but I don't know what all the hype is about. I've tried multiple coffee's and honestly they aren't good at all. I paid around 7 dollars for an iced coffee and asked for a little ice because it'll water the coffee down but got too much ice. Didn't hardly have any flavor and I was disappointed. I'll gladly support small businesses but I'd much rather have my blueberry iced coffee from dunkin

This is the worst coffee I have ever had in my life. I took a sip and immediately tossed it in the trash. I ordered the brown sugar beverage, and there were so many sugar crystals in the bottom. For the ones who make the drink, remember to let the espresso melt the sugar first. It might have been better if that were done. No one wants a gritty coffee.
The coffee also tasted like maybe espresso machine needs to be cleaned. I used to be a barista in Knoxville, and I noticed our coffee would not taste as great if we slacked on cleaning the machine itself. I cleaned it every single morning.
I also noticed they were sitting and eating with a baby. When we ordered, no one washed their hands or anything. I feel this is unsanitary as hands should be washed properly before preparing a drink for someone.
That being said, the ladies in there were very nice. They were excited to have a customer. The atmosphere was inviting, and I appreciated the kindness. If you want to support a local business, go here and try it. I may have not ordered the best drink. It may have been better to go for a drink that is syrup based. It is still the worst drink I’ve had. I’ll normally drink even a bad coffee, but I couldn’t drink this.
