Cinnamon roll and Turkish coffee
Paquita M.

I wanted to try something different and a quick search brought me to Coffee Joy. It's been on my must try list for a while so I'm glad I made time for it today. The building is located in like a strip area where several other businesses are but you can't miss it. The inside is nice, super clean and inviting. There are areas to sit and enjoy the menu items or you can get it to go. The cashier was very nice and greeted me as I was walking up to the counter to order. They offer various styles/flavors of coffee and teas along with fruit bowls and desserts like cinnamon rolls, muffins, croissants and other bakery items that pair well with coffee. I decided to try the Turkish coffee with a house made cinnamon roll. The Turkish coffee was prepared at the table. It was similar to Cuban and or Ugandan coffee just not as strong. I did try it without any honey or cream and it was delicious. The cinnamon roll was fresh be not too sweet and just the right amount of frosting for a homemade cinnamon roll. It was light and airy and a nice companion to the coffee. The prices are pretty reasonable, whereas I paid nine dollars for a cup of Turkish coffee and a cinnamon roll. This hidden gem is worth discovery, especially if you are looking for coffee that is not as commercialize as some of the larger franchise companies throughout the area.

Baklava roll, olives pogača (stuffed bread) w/ sea salt
Isabella M.

A truly exceptional coffee shop. From the moment you walk in, it feels welcoming and harmonious, with the perfect temperature for both focused work and relaxed conversation. Every table has outlets for devices, the space is open and well laid out with a mix of tables and comfortable couches that invite you to stay. The lighting is soft and warm, and gentle French music in the background creates a charming atmosphere. It's so comfortable it genuinely feels like a home away from home. The menu is thoughtfully curated, featuring seasonal items, genuinely fresh pastries, and excellent savory options. The equipment used to prepare both coffee and tea is top-of-the-line, and the quality shows in every cup. The olives pogača (pronounced pasha in Turkish), topped with sea salt, is truly unique--fluffy, rich, and deeply satisfying. The baklava is served warm and is remarkably soft and easy to enjoy, unlike the usually firm, layered texture you expect. There's also an impressive tea selection with real flavor, loose-leaf options, and specialty coffees, including French press with a choice of beans. Honestly, this place feels like a luxury for this town.

Tiramisu Latte

Coffee was delicious, staff was friendly and nice. After my coffee was made he brought it over to me, and it's the little things that make service excellent in my opinion. Overall love the atmosphere here. Feels very homey, a great study spot.

Caramel cappuchino and a chocolate croissant
Raven J.

I'm doing all I can to turn into one of those pretentious coffee snobs, so I have been making an effort to go to all the coffee shops in Baton Rouge to practice being a pretentious dingbat.I went to Coffee Joy ready to rant about textured foam caps and "earthy chocolate notes" or whatever, but the minute I sipped my cappuccino, all that BS leaked out of my ear holes. This place is so good and joyful. The espresso is great, the shop is cozy and quiet, and they nail the presentation. The dude behind the counter is always nice and quick. My biggest gripe is location, as I hate their parking lot and trying to maneuver around Perkins. The last time I visited, they had a flyer for a lamp making workshop they were hosting. I like that.

Cafe au lait
Aleigh P.

So far, best coffee I've had in Baton Rouge. My drink (cafe au lait) was served hot and fresh. I also love the atmosphere of the shop. The front windows let in lots of natural light and the snake plants and pothos are also a nice touch. They also play soft jazz music which makes the atmosphere even more relaxing and inviting. It's a great place to work or read a book. College students, this is a great place to do homework!

Avocado toast with microgreens! (And egg & tomato & aged Balsalmic). SO GOOD

Best espresso & cappuccino in town, bar none. Great people. Small offering of high quality food made with care. I hope Coffee Joy remains an exceptional coffee house in Baton Rouge for many years to come!

After a little online recon of this business, I ascertained the owner is Turkish. Therefore, I ordered off-menu Turkish Coffee. If you've never had Turkish coffee, it's an experience guaranteed to send you bouncing off walls and dancing with its high caffeine content in a concentrated boost. Many get it with honey to soften the strength. Not me. I like flavor. This Turkish coffee is 100% authentic and perfectly prepared, the likes of which you're lucky to find anywhere outside of Turkey. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't bitter. The owner knows his coffee craft and is exceptional at producing perfect coffee. The shop is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking in Baton Rouge. Plenty of seating. A must if you're in search for great coffee!

Cute little place. The coffee was really good, wasn't wild about the bagel. Service was great, and lots of place to sit and relax or study

Latte and muffin!
Keith H.

Coffee Joy is a small local coffee shop tucked into the strip mall located at the southeast corner of Perkins and Acadian. While it is pretty plain looking outside, it has a cozy and comfortable interior that is very welcoming. Of course, if you are coming here it is probably for the coffee. Their brew is top notch, with a stylish espresso machine front and center. I'm a latte sort of guy, and they have some excellent choices for me. I particularly like checking out the seasonal flavors listed by the register for a different taste from time to time. They also have baked goods in case you want a snack to go with your beverage. These range from the delicious to the decadent. These tasty treats are found displayed in a glass-fronted case to the right of the register. The seating is welcoming, including tables, easy chairs, and even some outdoor seating in front. Coffee Joy is everything one needs in a coffee shop, while remaining simple and focused on the core mission of delivering coffee products to their customers!

I stopped here on a road trip. I got a latte with cinnamon and spiced maple syrup, and it was excellent. The people who worked there were kind and friendly. The atmosphere was relaxing. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'm happy I stopped here.

Almond milk latte
Valentina C.

I ordered an almond milk latte with sugar free caramel for around $7. The service was quick. Great place to to work with plenty of outlets, fast internet, and the ambient music is not too loud. Did not try the food options but they offer bagel sandwiches, salads, waffles, and some cakes/muffins.

"Dirty chai"
Sarah D.

What a cute, quaint little coffee shop. It was really comfortable and inviting. I'll definitely be coming back again, to try different coffees and pastries that look amazing! The service was fantastic. But for the main event--the coffee. I had a dirty chai latte. It was super cute (don't think you'll get this kind of personal touch at a chain coffee shop). It was also amazingly potent (yay, caffeine!), aromatic and the chai tea had floral notes. I was able to get some work done and just really enjoyed my time spent there. If you're into the coffee shop scene, this one will not disappoint you.

The place not only has a great atmosphere they have great coffee. They have equipment that roasts…read moretheir own beans and you can for sure taste the difference. Staff is very friendly. Will come back to try the food but the coffee alone is worth it.

People made a big deal about the Bermuda Triangle back in the day and as time went on, we realized…read morethat it was kind of fake thing. But one thing that is more true than the Bermuda triangle is the Baton Rouge Bridge Crossing traffic back up. It's like as inevitable and predictable as anything can be and I am getting to enjoy it firsthand today. Always a traffic accident always a lane closure. Now usually I do the farm market Road north of Baton Rouge to avoid it but today I needed to go this way. The I-10/I-12/110 Triangle maybe? And I knew that my first stop would be French Truck location. I wanted coffee for the rest of my trip as I am traveling with my brewing equipment. I sampled their Festin, and their single source, Kenya, and Ethiopia and I decided to get a bag of the Ethiopia because it has that profound blueberry flavor profile that I like in small doses, thinking it was be a perfect coffee to share with my friends in Florida. And now on to lunch at Mestizo. A wonderful staff and ambiance. Great coffee shop music. I will bet that if I waited long enough, Tame Impala would come on the sound system. Lol.

PJs is one of Downtown's original coffee shops. This coffee company started out in New Orleans, so…read moreit is Louisiana-local. They are conveniently located at the corner of Convention and Lafayette Streets, right by the beautiful Lafayette Park. They are by the Shaw Center for the Arts, and two quality hotels. They are near it all downtown! Coffee and teas are the main attraction of course. I love their lattes year round, and in summer there are the beautiful velvet ices and iced coffees. I like to check out the rotating specials, which often are interesting and different. Last time I visited they were featuring honey lavender drinks, which make a most excellent velvet ice. They always have some nice baked goods on hand, from savory to sweet. There are also some other nice snacks on hand. My personal favorite is the dark chocolate covered espresso beans! The interior is cozy, and has a great view of the outdoors. There is a small courtyard outside with outdoor tables, but I think if one wants to be outdoors the Shaw Center Courtyard or Lafayette Park are the places to be.

The location was across from our hotel and that was the only good thing about this place…read more First we had no idea where the Barista was- we waited quite a bit- we knew there was someone because there were about 3 police officers with coffee sitting at the tables. When the guy finally came out- Super unfriendly and the coffee and drink were mid- and it appeared the guy working was just done with us- but he was sure nice to the local police officers that left a little before we did as his whole demeanor changed. If your hotel is surrounded by hotels....guess what you are probably going to get a lot of out of non locals and maybe what a big chunk of your profits come from-be nicer and make better drinks.
