Super cute coffee shop! Plenty of parking, lots of seating indoors and possibly outdoors but it was way too cold for that today. Cozy vibes, I loved their Christmas decorations and comfy couches. Service was friendly, I ordered an iced latte and it came out right away. I didn't have to wait in line, but most of the tables were full at noon on a Friday. The food looked good, next time I think I'll try the avocado toast. Clean restroom, which is always appreciated! read more

Stopped by for Bible Study yesterday at Congregation CoffeeZ Sat outside on the patio . Cool set up and easy place to work, eat, hang out with friends and read. Ordered an Iced Hibiscus Citrus Honey Latte. Really good drink. I could still taste the espresso. I ordered it half the sugar. Service was okay. Normally the people are super nice. Maybe the staff was having an off day. It was kind of a weird vibe. Anywho...I will return to try other seasonal drinks. read more

Congregation Coffee - Hibiscus Honey Citrus Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Germantown, Tennessee

Great ambiance, nice dish wear and quick service. Prices on target with Starbucks and I would say quality of the drinks and baked goods are better. Been a few times and enjoyed both. Very good London fog and nice chocolaty bread. Will be back! read more

Good service and staff.. nice ambiance too, and the food, outstanding! :-) We'll visit them soon for another great experience!

This was a nice but overly modern coffee shop. The coffee itself was not bad. They just use a light roast. It was a very bright taste, not the deep notes I usually look for but that's my preference. The food options were limited. Was this better or worse than Starbucks? I would call it a draw. A fine choice if you're in the area but not one I would go out of my way to try read more

I love working out of coffee shops and recently started going to Congregation Coffee as an alternative to Jojo's Espresso, which can get pretty crowded. Congregation has plenty of seating and the bright lighting creates a nice, cozy atmosphere. The staff are super friendly and helpful which's nice. I've only tried their food once and it was pretty good. However, I'm not a huge fan of their coffee. I've tried several lattes, but they're always too sweet for my taste. And I always request oat milk but I've been given regular milk a few times. I can taste the difference and my lactose intolerance confirms it. Overall, it's a nice spot to chill or get work done. I still enjoy coming here but I just wish their coffee were better. read more

Congregation Coffee - Peppermint White Mocha With Oatmilk (made with regular milk and can barely taste the peppermint) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Germantown, Tennessee

Congregation is a very unique coffee stop with many great options, hot or cold. The staff were very friendly and there were several options for food if you need a protein bite while you enjoy your coffee. The only thing I would change is their hours are rather short, especially for the area of town that remains very active long after they close. read more

Congregation Coffee is a very popular spot! I walked in surprised that the whole cafe was full and bustling with energy. Thank goodness I've got AirPods with noise cancelling and voice isolation, or else I don't think I would have been able to take a call or work in here. This place is great for meeting with friends, colleagues or just to enjoy a drink looking over the floor from upstairs. They have metal spiral staircase for a more homey feel. Overall the staff is very friendly. I ordered the sage lavender tea and had hoped for a teapot with the loose leaf tea so that I could steep the pricey tea for $5 several times though. Free WiFi and located in a beautiful building and plaza. read more

Like the vibes of the place, staff was friendly, and my ice patter was bomb! Specifically I got the white choc pumpkin latte. Would go back next time I'm in Memphis! I did need to request espresso to be added. read more

Congregation coffee, also known as "Congo", by the locals is a small coffee shop located in Germantown. The inside is cute with a bustling shop. Many people talking and studying while enjoying some coffee. I got a vanilla iced latte and my friend got a bacon egg and cheese. The coffee was good but costed nearly 8 dollars and my friend didn't have any bacon on his bacon egg and cheese sandwich. Overall the food and drinks are good but the price and service is a bit disappointing. read more

The service that I recently received here during a weekday morning was personable, competent, and friendly. They offered of variety of styles of coffee; I opted for a large cup of half cold brew and half regular hot coffee, so as not to burn my mouth in my attempt to get myself caffeinated asap. The flavor of their coffee beans was unique and pleasant. The coffee had a slight sweet flavor to it. I always take my coffee black, so this was interesting to me. They offered sweets from a local bakery, which I didn't sample. The lady at the coffee counter said that they might offer savory foods in the near future, which I am looking forward to. The interior of the shop was spacious and open. Much thought was put into its pleasing design. I liked that they have a customer loyalty program. I've posted their business hours within the Tips section. I plan on returning soon! read more

Such a cute coffee shop. I grew up in Germantown and I was in town visiting and stumbled upon this coffee shop. The coffee was really good there's tons of seating available, including outside. I will definitely be back and totally recommend. The staff were nice and welcoming. I came in on a Saturday morning, it was a lot of ppl but the line moved quickly. read more

Congregation Coffee - Iced vanilla latte & breakfast sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Germantown, Tennessee

TLDR: looks way better than it is. Here's why: THE DRINKS I ordered oat milk cappuccinos after asking if the oat milk they use foams up properly. The cashier told me it would work, so I kept my order instead of changing it to something easier. Big mistake. The cappuccinos came out as sad lattes with the LOOSEST foam on top. I should have known better, since both people working were bored-looking high school girls. I don't know about you, but I need my barista to look like they have a BFA or purple hair or literally any kind of life experience. THE PRICES This is on me for not really paying attention or asking the right questions while ordering. 1) The drinks were a little over $5 for the HUGE portion, albeit still a terrible value for the price since they were not properly made. I wasn't expecting to be drowned in my supersized cappuccino. 2) I had also purchased two gluten-free blueberries muffins out of the case near the register. After leaving, I thought to myself, "did I just pay almost $30 for two coffees and two muffins?" After looking at the receipt, I knew why. The two very small muffins were $6.50 each!! Seems a bit excessive to me. If I go back, I'll have to order something simple I know one of the children working there can make. And I definitely won't be paying almost seven dollars for a tiny muffin again! read more

The lovely ladies at the register were so kind and welcoming. The service was impeccable and my drink was quick to be made. I ordered an Iced White Mocha, while great, it could have used a better stir. The feel of the place was cozy with the smell of coffee filling the air. It is a great place to work and meet new people. I would recommend this place to others! read more

I was looking for a coffee shop before I went to work this morning. I love the fact that unlike Starbucks they offer more sugar-free variety other than vanilla. The service was great. They offer a rewards program and the place is beautiful. I talked to a lady while I was waiting on my coffee and she said the whole area used to be a church so they've tried to keep up the theme. It's absolutely beautiful in the coffee shop. The coffee tasted amazing. Try this place. You will absolutely not regret it. read more

Very nice atmosphere in a new building. I ordered a warm mocha with hazelnut flavor. And glad they're one of the few non-chain coffee shops open early on Sunday. BUT I came hungry hoping they'd have some protein snacks like most coffee shops but instead they had a half empty display of carbs (some sort of tomato bread) and cookies only.....food options severely lacking and what they did have was short supply too early in the day. read more

This was our first time here. We went on a Sunday morning and it was extremely busy!! Even though it was really busy, the service was really fast and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful with the menu items. Not to mention, the coffee was really good also!

Great local coffee shop. I went in during the week around 10 am and had no idea it would be so packed-every table was taken-I do wish the upstairs had been open. Got a blueberry lemon scone and it was sooo very good. Happy this is so close to my house! read more

I have tried Congregation several times since it opened just over a year ago. I really want to love it - it's in a convenient location, has a great vibe, and the service has never been an issue for me. However, I remain very unimpressed by the coffee. When it first opened and I had my first cinnamon roll latte, I was disappointed by the lack of flavor and the overpowering, oddly sweet espresso. I attributed this to the fact that they had just opened and were likely working out the kinks and perfecting the menu. Unfortunately, this has proven not to be the case. I have returned to Congregation several times since then, hoping for a redemptive coffee experience, but it continually falls short. I've had cinnamon roll lattes that have zero flavor until the aftertaste hit - and even then, it tasted as if cinnamon rolls were baking in the next room over. I've had pumpkin spice lattes that left me wanting more from the flavor. Most recently, I tried a peppermint white chocolate latte that was strangely overly sweet but did not resemble peppermint or white chocolate in any way. I think this was the last straw. I've wasted enough money here, hoping my disappointment was due to the growing pains of a new coffee shop. After a little over a year, I think I can say that I have given up on Congregation. read more

Overall, decent place to visit with a great vibe. When visiting, it was decently busy considering the holiday break which could have an impact on what follows. The coffee was watery, lacked flavor, and it's overall consistency tasted like someone had recycled a Nespresso pod 4-5 times over so all there is left is the distant dream of what espresso could taste like. The redeeming qualities were found in their sandwich offerings. I ordered the turkey croissant lunch sandwich which was a solid 7/10 and my wife ordered the ham which she said was a 7.5/10. We also purchased some of their pastries which were the star of the show. All in all, come for the vibes, stay for the pastries, maybe the caught the coffee on a bad day. read more

We live right down the street and frequent this coffee shop weekly. The coffee is good for the area as there are not really great coffee options in Germantown. The ambiance is lovely and cozy as well. Though, the staff can be very unbothered and appear standoffish. The last 8 times I have visited I have ordered a coffee and some form of a loaf cake. All 8 times I have received the hard heel of the loaf. This Friday I decided I would look and see if there were heels near the servers. The two heels on the loafs nearest to the server were missing so I didn't add a request of "no heel please". The heels were on the glass side facing the customer so I figured they would not reach all the way back to serve the heel again. Unfortunately when I got in the car and checked, yet again it was the stiff hard heel of the spice loaf. Is there a requirement to sell the heels first? That same day I went in and had to ask for a to-go carrier for my "to-go multiple coffee order" and the staff looked at me as if I was such a bother. They handed me a carrier that was broken and nearly spilled the coffees as I walked away. When I showed them the issue there was not a single word said to me. Just swapped it out and moved on. This coffee shop could receive 5 stars with proper protocol for warmth in customer service. A little smile and conversation goes a long way. Also, ditch the smaller sized hard heels of the loaf or ask the customer if they prefer the heel or the middle. read more

I recently found this place and will definitely be back. The atmosphere is perfect to relax, study, or have a friendly conversation. The coffee was great and you can get in real mugs. read more

I pre-ordered a charcuterie board for pick up on Christmas Eve between 10-11am. When I originally placed the order online I received both an email and text confirming my order and pick up. On Christmas Eve at 9:30am I decided to look at the track order status link. The track order status was stating canceled. I called and left a message to find out what was going on, but did not get a call back. I then went to the store. They said "sorry we canceled your order. We didn't have the staff to fulfill." Wow. No notification was sent to me that they chose to cancel the order. This was a Christmas present for someone. This is probably one of the worst customer service experiences I have had in many years. We will never do business with them again and will NOT recommend them in the future. This business needs to learn some basic management skills quickly or they will not survive. read more

I was very intrigued by the name "Congregation" because it just works! Not to mention the coffee shop looks like a church . Im assuming that's intentional. However it's not just looks and it surely didn't feel like church . The coffee was delicious, the service was fast and efficient and the workers were friendly and welcoming. I adore this place and although I live at least 25 minutes away, I will definitely return soon! read more

Great atmosphere and coffee. A little pricey, but that is with all things these days.

The atmosphere was 10/10! The speed in which I got my iced latte was also 10/10. The coffee itself however was 3/10 in my opinion. I really value craft coffee and was really looking forward to trying their espresso. It tasted pretty bitter which took away from the vanilla. They may still be dialing in their espresso..not sure. All I know is that I would definitely go back to study/work--I would just make sure to have my latte before I go. Might try their brewed coffee next time. (Service was also great as well!) read more
