I ordered 1 scoop of Cookies n' Cream and he ordered 2 scoops of the salted carmel brownie. My was very good. It was creamy and just enough cookie. My husband liked his but said didn't taste the Carmel. The inside was clean and lots of seating. They could use a few more wall decorations, but again they just opened so I am sure it is a work in progress. I love the fact that they include all dietary options. They have dairy free ice creams, no sugar ice creams, and gluten free cones and cookies. Way to go Tennessee Central on that!!! If you are coming through Monterey, TN, be sure to stop by and support!!

The employees were all very welcoming and helpful. The café was very busy and appeared to have a lot of regulars. We had the drip coffee and it was delicious and we purchased a blueberry sourdough muffin that looked gorgeous but we haven't had a chance to try it as yet. Definitely worth it to stop and enjoy the relaxation and peacefulness!l

It started as a goat soap shop and now is expanded to have lots of amazing items as well as drinks, baked goods and sourdough sandwiches. Their bread is wonderfully crusty and yet soft, the perfect pairing for a sandwich! We tried a few things and settled on their sandwiches and scones as being our favorites. We also were fortunate to buy some sourdough to take home. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is chill and yet refined. We went often and enjoyed seeing the goats and interacting with them a bit. It is a great spot for a coffee, baked good or food plus some soaps and other items. Definitely worth a stop!

I usually stop at Starbucks on road trips to the Smokies to grab a quick breakfast, but this time I…read morewanted something a little fresher, so I discovered Poets Coffee. Vibes - I really liked the interiors like just a couple of wooden tables and chairs, a shelf with books, and a little merchandise on display. The café has good street parking, which was such a relief. Bites - My husband got a bagel with eggs, and I chose a bagel with herb cream cheese. The bagels were cheap, but when I saw the size, I understood why. A bite in, I could tell they weren't the freshest. They weren't stale, just a bit drier than usual. I did, however, really like the herb cream cheese. I also ordered a mocha, which was pretty mediocre. Service - The staff was polite, though the food took a little longer than expected. I noticed some coughing while we were there, and with flu season going around, it did make me slightly concerned.

The beers were cold and fresh, and we enjoyed the variety. Since they don't have food, we ordered some burgers from right across the street and they were delivered hot and promptly by another friendly individual. It was a really chill adventure, and we would definitely recommend it and be back the next time we're in the area They all had some cute merch so we brought home a pint glass

You can bring your own food, and the dogs are welcome! So we packed some snacks for after our hike, grabbed a table, and got some flights! Lots of space inside, and the noise level was suitable for having conversations. They have a good variety of brews suitable to please all the spectrum of drinkers from Seltzers, Stouts, Ales, to hoppy ass IPAs. And they even have coffee if you want to skip the booze. You are free to get a taste before deciding as well. The fella behind the pours was really nice and loved that he used his face and head jesters to let me know if he liked a certain brew or not ;) Say no more, sir!! I'm excited to see what is going on around these parts as the weather improves and the outdoor area opens up. But it will be our stop anytime we head to FHSP!

Also, the young lady who assisted me and took my order, was so kind and that's always a plus. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll for sure stop by again.

Service was super friendly and thoughtful - I'll be here every morning when we return this summer!!
