Their "coffee " is all espresso , so if you order a regular coffee you're actually getting an Americano (espresso and hot water) so every cup is made to order, and nice and strong Also try the Duffin. Read more
They have coconut & almond milk ! Kiss that Starbucks. And they have fresh fruit , DT Starbucks does not. Friendly(ier)* staff . Brkf sandwiches are tasty(ier)* [*than SB]
Only local coffee shop I haven't had one complaint about. Great lattes . If they have the freshly made gingerbread , get a piece. You will not regret it.
Iced Raspberry Mocha is the best coffee drink in town . And you can get a great ham , cheese & egg bagel any time of day. Eggels are the way to go.

Some of the best fresh baked pastries ! The "Everything" bagel is my favorite!
Fantastic macchiato , lovely atmosphere.
I grabbed a simple americano . Super smooth, velvety flavor and texture.

Great place to sip tea with a friend... hot wii fill spot :-)
Plenty of outlets along the walls. Free Wi-Fi, ask for password at the counter. Read more
The best hot chocolate I've ever had.
Coffee is top notch. Barista knows her stuff.
Latte , breakfast quiche , desert
Good chicken salad (secret: they buy it at Costco).
The Dark Roast Americano is the perfect early morning caffeine jolt!
It's overpriced for what you get. They make a good dirty chai , but I thought the latte I got could have been less watery. Staff was abrupt and yelled at people to not stand in front of the counter.
Kale and bacon loaf ... sounds so good but it was so dry. ????
Not bad. Gotta keep the panhandlers away. One guy was a pest.
The breakfast sandwich is good but avoid the chicken biscuit
Ham , egg and cheese is even better on everything bagel than whole wheat . Melty goodness any time of the day.
get an frequent card and get a free drink after purchasing 10 drinks. save you're freebies up for later :)
Coffee was some of the best I have had, but don't get the breakfast sandwiches . Processed egg , bagel isn't toasted, and meat was poor. Go for the pastry instead..
Great service, but no drip!
Service is great. Prices reasonable.
Chicken noodle soup is surprisingly good for coffee shop food. I believe them when they say it's homemade !
Passion fruit hot tea with almond raisin granola bar :-)
try the honey shortbread . Mind blowingly amazing.
Try the Latte - Perfect on a cold day
The cookies are very good. Disappointed in the coffee . The iced coffee wasn’t even brewed. It was a Nescafé style product stirred with water. Lame.
Americano ,and any pastry
Quiet and decent coffee
Had a perfect soy latte .
Great atmosphere.
Bring your own cup/container and get a $0.20 discount !
Love this place!
That was the chocolatiest and most heavenly mocha I've ever had!
My favorite...large soy chai latte made dirty . Yum!
Sometimes I don't know if they could be more rude. Such a shame because most of the time it's awesome
A good place to work
Does not accept American Express Cards, FYI :)

Very cozy , but wifi sucks.
New homemade granola bars are delicious.
A great place to have coffee and access WiFi
Amanda the barista is both hot and talented.
Get them to drop a shot of espresso in your hot chocolate .
Great coffee
This is my favorite Starbucks. It's close to campus and it's a great place to study. Plus the baristas are all very nice and helpful. - Hannah Segui
My favorite study spot off of campus. If you’re looking for something different instead of Starbucks in midtown I highly recommend and their iced coffee is so good. - Alejandra Calero
A must see in Memphis! Make sure to do the audio tour. There is so much to read and the subject matter is intense so the audio tour helps balance things out so that you don't miss anything. - Raquel
I always leave with something yummy and fresh flowers. Love the folks at Green Acres. I always buy my flowers from them. - Robin Fernandez
Delicious dry rub ribs, dare to say the best I’ve ever had. Sides are great too. - Gabriel M.
