Stopped in for a quick afternoon coffee and was pleasantly surprised. It's a small shop and the guy was very nice, and told me they make all their own syrups from scratch. The menu is simple and he hooked me up with an iced vanilla coffee. It was perfect. We sat outside because the weather was nice and cool for May in Mississippi. read more

Some of the best coffee I've ever had! The young ladies making the coffee were clearly passionate and highly knowledgeable about their craft. They even remade the espresso until it smelled just right, that level of care and attention is rare. Thank you for putting so much love and precision into every cup! read more

This is one of the main coffee shops in the area right across the street from Lee's Coffee & Tea which is a much larger place that offers a wider menu with food. While Lee's Coffee and Tea offers bottomless coffee and nice spaces to work they don't have whole cream which to me is a HUGE NEGATIVE as I demand whole cream for my coffee! Manuscript Coffee has a much smaller space but you can certainly find space to do some work or anything else you might need to do at a table. Manuscript Coffee is far more intimate and gives off more of an urban small coffee shop vibe where you might actually meet people and have conversations. Lee's Coffee & Tea is just so large with an upstairs and downstairs people tend to spread out and you are far less likely to strike up a conversation with anybody. Overall this seems to be the best balance of size and menu to make it the best coffee shop in downtown Laurel, MS. read more

Discovered this spot on tik tok and had to stop by on my way from NOLA to Birmingham. The owner made me a delicious iced mocha. I said my order was for here and instead of getting my drink in a plastic cup, it was served to me in a cute glass. I wish I had brought my book in to read, but it was just a nice break from my road trip. Highly recommend this place if you're in Laurel! read more

The coffee was ok, it just tasted a little strange. The ambiance was not what I was expecting, they had a lot of boxes and things all around and it was a little boring. The service was pretty good for only having one person making the coffee. I would say it's only a one time try, I wouldn't go again. But for a one time experience you should definitely try it! read more

Great service, quality and flavor. Definitely worthwhile. I generally put coffee joints into three categories - the cheap chain places, the non-chains that are good, but have something weird going on with their extraction or the roast they use, and the "just plain delicious" places. This one is in the 3rd. read more

I found myself having some time and wanted to try a German coffee house. I was surprised to see that such a place existed in Hattiesburg and that they had a cute little area to study and hangout in. Getting there, I was met with the owner whom is originally from Germany. He taught me many things about coffee and the menu that he has. He lets you smell the coffee and everything. It was a wonderful experience. I tried the spiced Mexican latte and loved it. The cup was huge but I finished it quickly. It was also afternoon and I was struggling. The ambiance is like a mix with LED lights, couches, tables and chairs, and plants and dog things. Imagine if your friend opened up a coffee shop, it feels kind of like that. I think this coffee shop would be my go to in Hattiesburg. How can you beat such great company and great coffee! P.S. I did not get the pretzel, and I regret it. The food seems good, and there's beer here too!
