“Got an ice Americano after walking Blackwater creek trails. It was delicious!!!!“

“Killer spot to grab some great coffee! Even have a vending machine if you need a bag of coffee after hours“

“Bailey is the sweetest barista! Her iced chai lattes are the absolute best in town“

“New to the area. Keep hearing about all the local coffee shops. So we started trying them. This Joe Bean's is the only JB we've tried yet, but it was very good. Our service was great, our Latte and Mocha was great. Out of the few locals we've tried so far this one is currently at the top of our list.“

“We have been long standing customers of Joe beans but our experience today made it so I had to leave a review. Our daughter accidentally spilled the extra large latte we had gotten for mom. After we got it all cleaned up we came back through and shared what happened with our barista and she did not even hesitate to replace our drink and was so apologetic. Great job on training your team well!“

“A great cup of coffee is not easy to find when you’re traveling, but after visiting Joe Bean’s I now have a spot in Virginia. Great coffee, friendly staff, awesome selection and delicious pastries. We Will definitely make this a regular stop when we are in the area.“

“The lucky charms latte is 20/10!! SO good, give it a try and support local🍀👏🏻💚“

“Excellent! This is the first place that I have gotten a true New York Style Bagel. It made me smile when they told me the only difference was the water. It's a New York thing! Thank you for the chat and the delicious sandwiches. My husband and I truly enjoyed the atmosphere, the service and the food.“

“I was exploring Lynchburg over the weekend and stumbled upon Troublemaker Coffee, tucked right into the heart of a charming local toy and book store. Walking into what felt like a beloved community institution and finding serious third wave coffee inside was one of those delightful surprises that make travel worthwhile.

I ordered an oat latte and watched the barista work a gorgeous La Marzocco machine with the kind of confidence that comes from real skill. You can always tell when someone knows their equipment, and this crew clearly does. The espresso pulled beautifully: rich, balanced, with that syrupy consistency that signals fresh beans and precise extraction. They use Oatly, which is hands down the best oat milk for coffee. It steams to that perfect microfoam consistency and has the richness to stand up to good espresso without overwhelming it. The latte art was almost too pretty to disturb.

The result? Absolutely delicious. Smooth and creamy, with the espresso cutting through just enough to remind you this is coffee, not a milkshake. It’s that ideal balance that’s surprisingly hard to find, even in cities with competitive coffee scenes.

But what really won me over was the atmosphere itself. Surrounded by books and toys, with the gentle ambient sounds of a well loved local shop, Troublemaker offers something increasingly rare: a genuine third place where you can settle in, read, and just breathe for a while. The servers were fantastic, warm and attentive without hovering, checking in at exactly the right moments.

I was also glad to see they sell Slowpoke sourdough loaves. Clearly they know quality when they see it.

It’s the kind of spot that makes you wish you were local. If you’re visiting Lynchburg, bring a book, order that oat latte, and give yourself permission to linger. Troublemaker will make it worth your while.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“Lydia provided extraordinary service with a smile during a busy Friday afternoon. She proactively offered me an ice water while I was seated in the lobby making a work call. No Starbucks associate has ever done this for me! I sincerely appreciated her friendly demeanor and will definitely be returning to this location.“

“Iced lattes are always on point!“

“Great owner and coffee. Very popular at the farmers market.“

“I took my daughter for the first time on the way home from school yesterday afternoon. My daughter got the pink mermaid fizz and I got a hot sweet and salty. My daughter loved hers and mine was also good. I would mention that the drinks are very sweet so if you like more of a coffee taste then you may want to get less sweetener in it. Service was also great and fast. Laura helped me with my order and Becka talked to me at the register. Both very kind and helpful young ladies. The girls inside seemed to be having a great time at work which is always nice to see as well. Would come here again.“

“7 Brew is a genius concept. It's a bit tricky to order and it's advisable that you have their website up on your phone before you even pull into the drive-thru for not only viewing the menu options but also to apply their point based rewards and promos that makes their franchises cost effective. They desperately NEED AN APP! Why they don't have one with QR code links on the cups is a totally mystery.“

“We love The Muse and I am a local for 20 years now from NC. But…yesterday I came in for one of our old favorites the breakfast burrito with egg, bacon, cilantro, black bean hummus, cheese with a side of the best homemade salsa. I had a delicious pure vanilla bean latte but when we got home with our burritos my husband could not even get past one bite. I choked mine down lamenting the OG burrito.🌯 This new burrito was basically a raw onion burrito with a tiny bit of egg, pork sausage, avocado, tomatoes and some cheese. I wanted to like it and I love avocado and always used to add it to the OG one. But uhggg…Y’all please go back I’m begging you. That was tough to get down. 🥲“

“I get a Christmas in a Cup. Every. Single. Day.“

“My friend and I ate here yesterday and I have not stopped thinking about the drunken noodles. Nicholas was a phenomenal server and everyone there was just so kind. We will be back (Maybe today haha)“

“Killer spot to grab some great coffee! Even have a vending machine if you need a bag of coffee after hours“

“THE BEST IN LYNCHBURG!!! The cutest little boba shop! So welcoming and friendly. I’ve never ever had a bad experience after coming for over a year. My boyfriend and I make this a weekend outing every week. Support Local💞💞“

“I work in the mall and I always get the hot chocolate since it’s cold outside right now and I need something to warm me up“

“I've been a regular here for a year now and I think it's important to note that these baristas are amazing individuals. They often have to work shifts completely alone which isn't always easy when there's a lot of people or having customers who don't care enough to understand (and unfortunately leave dishonest reviews out of anger which is why I'm here). The owner is incredibly sweet and makes great coffee, and the manager/other barista is fun to talk to, and she makes really great drinks too. I love this place so much. Every regular here knows that these baristas do their best even when they're met with entitled customers ;)“

“I don't know how I'd get through the work day without my morning lotus energy drink-- which is delicious. customer service is also top tier!“

“While you may have to wait a while for your order the staff is very nice. They often have to deal with many, many students at a time yet they handle the stress and load very well. For a busy Starbucks they do quite well. Only issue is they often run out of certain ingredients due to having so many customers in a day.“

“Absolutely love this place. Food is always good. Definitely recommend the soup, different one daily and I've never been disappointed. Soup is served with bagel chips which add nice crunch to soup. Interesting selection of sandwiches which are served on bagels, wraps, and specialty breads. Staff is totally awesome...warm and welcoming as soon as you step in. Will return very soon :)“

“My favorite coffee spot in Richmond ☕️“

“One of our best finds in Lynchburg. Vanilla lattes, scones, croissants and quiche are just a few of our favorites!“

“Love all you guys! A very special shout out to Kale!“

“I discovered this location when my daughter was in Virginia Baptist Hospital . Coffee was great but the employees are what makes it a great experience. Yesterday my husband had to be rushed to Lynchburg General and I coulddnt go inside for hours. I drove to this Starbucks , distraught over the loss of our little dog the night before and now the pissibilty my husband wss having a heart attack. Bethany was so kind and welcoming, she made me feel a little better. And of course the coffee was great. Thank you for being there and shout out to Bethany❤“

“if I must say so The Bagel and I have the best Avacado toast I've ever sunk my teeth in“

“I absolutely loved this Starbucks. I just got back from there and am so happy I went. The lady who helped me was SO sweet. I went in with a "Secret Menu" order and felt so bad because I know it puts more work on them, but she was amazing. I felt better than when I came in. She made the drink perfectly; it tastes amazing. Whoever that girl was deserves a reward.“

“We really enjoyed the Marigold it was awesome ..the guy that waited on us was great .. we will be back !!“

“Excellent service, drinks and brunch“
