    Coffee Shop No. 494 Kovu's Coffee Boone, NC April 9, 2025 The two best words to describe Kovu's Coffee is cozy and fun. The hubby and I felt like the old folks in the shop. It was full of young people working on their computers and reading books. You have all sorts of seating options to choose from and the shop encourages different hobbies. There's a record room, a stage for performances, a round table to play board games and a pretty decent selection of books in the shelves. The best part is you can bring your dog to experience the coffee shop with you. Now for the important...the barista made a delicious cortado! Enjoying life one cortado at a time!

    We were driving from Burnsville to Wilkesboro and just Googled to find a local coffee shop. We popped in for an iced mocha, and it was absolutely amazing. When we stopped in on a Sunday morning, only one barista was working, so service was rather slow, but that gave me some time to look around. There is tons of seating and different types of lounging areas. They have free wifi, regular table seating, couches, bar seating, and free WiFi. There are numerous rooms, so you can find a private nook as well. There are some games and books for patrons to enjoy as well. As for the coffee, it was incredible.

    Down and Dirty: fun atmosphere, delicious beverages and friendly staff (including Lily the dog). Probably the best coffee I've had and wish they had this place where I live. I was here visiting for vacation with family and wanted to try a local coffee spot and do glad I found this. If you're anywhere nearby it even not so near by, this is a must try.

    Coffee was fantastic! The guy working was great to talk to and helped us find some fun things to do (and dodge some major traffic on 105). Pretty cool vibe inside the shop too. 10/10 would recommend

    Anytime we're in Boone we always visit Kovu!! This place is a gem in this small town! They have delicious coffee and a million options, the seasonal menu is always delicious! It's super dog friendly which I love. There have games inside and I usually play the Nintendo switch while my partner works. The staff is above and beyond friendly and kind. We love it here and will be always be patrons of this shop!

    Greatest coffee shop around. Friendly staff and the owners are excellent. They know how to make good coffee and espresso and the coffee art is excellent as well.

    A fond memory to tide me over until we get back to Boone!

    Seriously amazing coffee and lattes!!!! We were in Boone on vacation and luckily found Kovu's Coffee. The owners were so pleasant and fun to talk to. We'll definitely be back here when we return to the area and I hope anyone reading this will stop in at Kovu's Coffee and see for yourselves how lucky Boone is to have this shop.

    Delicious scone, excellent coffee, and Lily the dog is an added bonus. Plenty of places to sit and enjoy your coffee.

    Modern style coffee shop with an amazing amount of seating inside not so much outside but a few…read morepicnic tables. Really great coffee and good service. A simple breakfast/lunch menu and some unusual but delicious sweet treats. They have an array of gifty retail items and tea and coffee you can buy to go as well. I hit it just before the Sunday crowd and got a great high top table facing outside with nice sunlight coming through. I got the Americano with a oat milk float on top and a scrumptious morning bun. I highly suggest this pastry, sugary, buttery , flaky without being too sweet . A bit messy but oh so good. Didn't plan on eating it all but oh well I did. Get it warmed up. Coffee was nice and strong. With the perfect amount of foam. Super clean and well run , a little hidden away from most retail and restaurants. Sat here eating and reading for a bit. Perfect Sunday morning.

    Hatchet Coffee absolutely delivered…read more I ordered the Sweet Bee iced latte -- espresso and local honey -- and it was fantastic. The honey brought a smooth, natural sweetness that complemented the espresso without overpowering it. It was refreshing, balanced, and incredibly easy to drink. Simple ingredients, done really well. I also had their El Salvador on drip, and it was exactly what I'm looking for in a light roast. Bright, lively, and full of fruity and floral notes without veering into sour territory. Clean finish, expressive aromatics, and beautifully brewed. Between the quality of the coffee and the clarity of flavor in both drinks, Hatchet clearly knows what they're doing. Definitely a must-stop if you appreciate well-roasted, well-executed coffee.
