We ordered a latte with caramel and one of their seasonal drinks (Winter Miel) and it was SO GOOD! 10/10. It actually tasted like coffee and not some watered down weak espresso. We also ordered a pumpkin loaf and croissant, both delicious. The coffee shop itself is super cute and I wish we could have stayed a little longer, but we were on our way back home to Texas from Gatlinburg where apparently good coffee doesn’t exist. After a week of bad coffee it was so nice finding this place! The vibe and service were excellent as well. Would definitely come back again if we could!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Great coffee shop located in the heart of the Old City neighborhood in Knoxville. Plenty of coffee options and definitely recommend the pour over, very bold and fresh taste. Attentive and friendly staff with plenty of seating.

The inside space is very nice with lots of seating available. My friend and I both got iced vanilla lattes and agreed that something tasted off about them. There was not a lot of coffee or vanilla flavor; it just tasted like slightly sour milk. We felt nauseous after drinking the lattes and couldn’t finish them. I cannot recommend their coffee but it is a nice place to work/study.

I visited this place during my vacation, and it was an excellent experience. The ambiance is fantastic, and the smell of freshly brewed coffee immediately welcomed me as I stepped inside. I absolutely adore this place. The music is playing at a low volume, which is perfect for people who prefer a relaxed atmosphere.
