    Cheesy, bacon-covered grits
    Forrest G.

    By now, the Fig Tree Café in downtown Jonesboro has become a popular go-to for morning / afternoon atmosphere, even with its near-scanty hours of operation. Open all week, save for Sunday, the spot is an adjunct of Jonesboro Baptist Church, but one need not be denominational to fit in. One entree, the grits -- when served steaming with cheese & bacon -- is my personal favorite. The hot cappuccino bread with generous chocolate chips comes in a near second. An antique piano adds personality to FTC's spread. Two more interesting details include the prayer wall and an absence of orange juice at the food counter. To be brief, FTC is a gem this critic highly recommends.

    Yum!  Carmel Machioto coffee, sausage egg and cheese croissant sandwich.

    What an amazing and wonderful surprise. Just flew into town and was looking for a cup of coffee and quick bite to eat before my meeting. Thankfully, none of the big chain places were nearby. Found this amazing gem down on Main Street. Who does not want to try the local coffee house on any Main Street in small towns USA? It did not disappoint. Service was warm and friendly with good suggestions. Both my sandwich and coffee were delicious. I could not stop smiling at the decor. I so wanted to pull out my book and settle in for an hour to read and drink coffee. Maybe next time. In the meantime, go down to Main Street and visit them. You will thank me later!

    Hello all, this is such a cute cafe. Prices are nice (paid around $12 for my sandwich,muffin,and beverage w/tip) and food is tasty for a quick coffee run. The service is also nice. Only thing I would "negatively" comment about is the drinks on the blackboards which weren't up to date, so I was really sad when I found out I couldn't get a cream soda The BLT was really good and so was the strawberry lemonade. Definitely would be back 4.5/5

    This little feel good coffee shop never disappoints! It's location is beautiful across from the Old CC courthouse in the historic district of downtown Jonesboro. I usually run by this shop every morning. After my lifelong commitment to boycott Starbucks, I think I'll be stopping by much more often!

    Pouf and variety of seating - cosy

    I'm happy because it's really the first local coffee shop in the neighborhood that is like this. Before, we only had Mt Zion Barnes and Nobles with its Starbucks and recently opened is the independent Starbucks on Tara Blvd. The closest Starbucks was otherwise 20 mins away near Eagles Landing. Then, we had to go to CSU library or DD in Lake City. So, when I'm in Morrow area, I like to come here because it is really peaceful, clean, and cozy- and local. It's also not FREEZING from air con and there are plenty of outlets! Lovely customer service. It's really a spot for locals and commuters wouldn't really go here. It's a nice study and work spot. Hours are a bit inconvenient. It is a place with religious values but no pressure if you're not of same faith. I feel welcomed bc it also has a community vibe. Clayton Co has a strong religious community so it reflects that, I think! Not really vegetarian friendly-All their food except sweets pastries has meat. See pics Coffee and tea okay It's not like Blue Bottle or places w Counter Culture or the other third-wave sort of coffee places one finds closer downtown Atlanta

    Great views and such a beautiful day to sit and sip on great coffee

    Cutest coffee shop on Main St in Jonesboro. So inviting and staff was very friendly, great coffee as well. Jonesboro needs a lot more of this to revitalize but this is a great start.

    Raisin bagel with chai latte and a shot of water.

    Cute and cozy place. Staff pleasant and helpful. Table seating or sofas and chairs. From Groups of 6-8 to 1 person doing computer work were present when I was visited. They have serve your self water with cute large shot glasses! My chai latte with almond milk (I declined the 2 pumps of vanilla) was the best I've ever had but next time I will request it hotter. I will be back.

    Great friendly service, love the ambiance. Good pastries although the recipe for their cinnamon rolls fluctuates, I'd still recommend.

    I was in the area and noticed this boba shop and thought a tea sounded refreshing. It's a cute…read morelittle shop and they were fully staffed. There is free parking on both sides of the building, and they have seating inside and outside so you can enjoy your drinks and snacks. The dessert case was pretty empty inside, not sure because it was early afternoon or if it always looks like that, but it was an unattractive sight. The service was very friendly; I was greeted right away. They offer non-dairy options, which was perfect and I had the Thai tea with boba, I think brown sugar flavor but I'm not positive. I found the drink to have a decent taste, but it was very watery. I doubt that I would return again, I typically give a place a second chance but based on the reviews it seems like this is a consistent issue.

    We were craving boba and were in the area so decided to hit up Boba Theory- so surprised to see…read morethey have a drive through! Got the Matcha Milk Tea with boba, and it was not great. They actually gave us a sample of their new Green Thai Tea and that was super sweet, so we asked for what we ordered to be less so, but it was still very sweet. The matcha flavor wasn't super strong, and the drink felt powdery. Some boba pearls were cooked well and some were overcooked. Ambiance is spacious and casual; service was fast and friendly. Lots of parking available. Might have been an off-day for them, 4.5/10 would not recommend right now.
