A really feel good environment. read more

Solid 4.5 stars If you like a bold , robust coffee they have it . There are limited flavors for latte's but they do have some flavors you rarely see . The iced coffee and cold brew are for those people that like that nice strong stuff . Never have I had decaf that taste better then regular espresso until I came to open door coffee. Tried a breakfast burrito at the suggestion of one of the employees . It had a perfect crisp on the outside and a mouthful of fillings all with a great taste . All the guys and girls that work here are very friendly and have great suggestions for those who are unsure on what to get . 8 drinks and a breakfast burrito later they are yet to be wrong . They really know their coffee/food and customers read more

Hands down the best cup of coffee I have had in the TRI-Cities area!! The owner roasts the beans and sells them in store and on the website. Cutest locale (I could have spent some time there had I planned better) just a stone's throw from ETSU and downtown shopping. And if it weren't, it'd be worth a detour!!! Friendly, knowledgeable staff will have you at hello. I highly recommend this place!!! AND if you are in the neighborhood, there's some sweet thrifting for those so inclined! read more

Finally came inside. This is a beautiful little coffee house just up the hill from the downtown area of JC. Was greeted with a smile by a kind gentleman who took our order. I had an iced latte with sugar-free hazelnut syrup. My go to favorite coffee order. Next time I will try their Buckeye. Didn't see the flat screen tv above left of the order counter that has the seasonal flavors. read more

I love it here. Small, local, kitschy. Today there are flannels, hats, jewelry, chotchkes, and baubles made by local craftsy types, for sale in the dining room. Coffee is legit, the food is really good. If you're into things like "bran bars," whatever that is, it's included on the huevos rancheros plate today. I'm getting the BLAT ($7), medium coffee ($2), and a cool hat ($12). I like to bring people for their first time. It can be crowded and loud. Today there's parking, plenty of seats, mellow music, and a few folks visiting quietly. Perfect! read more

I am all about supporting local business but a few things that will prevent me from doing this due to this experience. Now I'm just fed up. Ordered Waffles for my boys, after they brought it to the table they told us (we ordered them to be made with chocolate chips) no chocolate chips or syrup. I got toast with my omelet (had to ask for it because my food delivery did not have it) they told me they were out of jelly (honey was offered and just fine). Coffee was good, not great, and $1 extra for creamer to add to coffee. It's just over a dollar for cream bottle at the grocery store! Adding creamer should be included with overpriced coffee. Syrup and jelly should always be in stock for a breakfast venue. No excuse, there are grocery stores everywhere. read more

Yummy coffee and tasty breakfast bowl! Cute little shop. Definitely will come again when I'm in town!

stars - Highly recommend! Just stopped by Open Doors Coffeehouse in downtown Johnson City, and wow--what a gem! The coffee is seriously great--rich, well-balanced, and clearly made with care (you can tell they take their beans seriously). I went for one of their breakfast burritos, and it was amazing: perfectly seasoned, loaded with fresh ingredients, hearty but not overly heavy, and exactly what I needed to start the day right. The vibe inside is cozy and welcoming--nice spot to chill, work, or just enjoy a meal. Staff was super friendly and quick too. If you're in the area and want quality coffee paired with standout breakfast options (that burrito is a must-try), this place is definitely worth it. I'll be back next time I'm in town! Thanks for the awesome spot, Open Doors! Keep doing what you're doing. read more

My husband and I stopped in while beginning our trek back home from North Carolina. One of our favorite road-trip traditions is finding local, non-chain spots--usually uncovered by me while he drives. I take my role as "passenger princess" very seriously. At first, the quiet parking lot made us worry Open Doors might be closed, but the music and lights told a happier story. Inside, the shop was clean, cozy, and immediately welcoming. We ordered coffee and breakfast bowls to go and lingered while we waited. Everything came out FAST--and holy moly, the breakfast was delicious. The kind of good you simply don't stumble upon at a chain. We're very glad curiosity (and caffeine needs) led us in. Thank you! read more

Open Doors Coffeehouse - Biscuit and gravy $6, cinnamon roll waffle, breakfast burrito. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Great service and great coffee and dessert!! Love the downtown.It was the first time in town.We will be back soon

This is actually our second time here and the first time we came here it completely slipped my mind to do a write up. Nevertheless, I will not miss this opportunity to let everyone know this is just the cutest place you could ever visit. We had a gift card at $5 each from church and we were able to get a chai tea, a regular orange juice and a sausage biscuit at $3.75 and our total came up to $0.29 after the gift cards were applied. So we decided to come and try them again. A kind soul came in before us and left a gift card as a pay it forward gift to those who come behind them, my son and I were among the group of people to receive this blessing before the year closed out. It really did put a smile on my face. This place is very cozy and is a great space for clearing your mind or if you just want a quiet place with good vibes. We will definitely be back Happy safe New Year!! read more

Went 3 times and they messed up/ something was wrong with the order every time and they do not offer refunds

It's absolutely insane to get such a filling meal of this quality for this price point. The breakfast burrito was perfection. Great spot for a quick breakfast. read more

Food was very good and reasonable priced. Quick service on the food side. Cozy and very friendly.

Love this coffee shop! They are so friendly, and the coffee is delicious. The cinnamon roll waffle is a MUST try!! The prices could be improved, but I think it's a good treat once in a while! The atmosphere is great as well. read more

Situated on the corner, the entrance is from 8th street. The opening on Roan is an exit. There's a good amount of parking but it can still get crowded when busy, especially when the drive through backs up. There is handicapped parking along the side and a long ramp to the door. Walking in immediately feels cozy and inviting. The order counter is to the left with the menu behind. There's a lot of seating and some door-inspired design. There's a couch in the rear. The coffee menu has a wide variety of options, as well as quite a few teas. The food menu is unique with lighter or more filling options as well as vegetation choices. The Farmer's Toast is more filling than expected due to the abundance of avocado slices, but it's certainly not a heavy meal. The Country egg breakfast bowl is quite filling and very flavorful. The mushrooms added noticeable flavor. The biscuit and gravy was the least liked. Although the biscuits are light, the gravy is thinner than preferred and without property spiciness. Ordering sausage gravy just gets sausage pieces added on top. The flavor is not the same as sausage gravy. The sausage is flavorful though. Open Doors also supports Rise Up!, a non-profit organization working to inspire children so you can do good while getting your coffee fix and a nice meal. read more

I bought a muffin for a stranger because I didn't want to do homework here without paying for something. The barista heard me explaining to the guy I bought it for why I did so, and he said I didn't need to buy anything. To put it in his own words "I got'chu, don't worry about it." Great atmosphere. Can be noisy, but not too noisy. Nice, small, homey feel, but never crowded when I'm there in the mornings. And I have to say that Open Doors is such a cool name. Amazing place for students to do homework! 10/10, would highly recommend. read more

This is a breakfast/coffee house not to miss! The Belgian waffle was crunchy on the outside and cake like on the inside. Loved the biscuit, egg and bacon sandwich - the bacon was thick, the biscuit amazing. They roast their own coffee beans as well. Casual yet a chic ambiance with a very present and engaged owner. read more

I don't live in Johnson City but discovered this coffee shop a few years ago. When I come to town, this is my first stop in the morning. They have delicious savory bacon and egg products that pair well with their coffee. The inside is eclectic with lots of spaces to sit. The staff is friendly and efficient. read more

We were on a trip and needed breakfast for 3 days. Found this place and we all loved it so we returned the nest two mornings. It was only a few minutes drive from our hotel. Loved the decor and feel of the place. We always try to visit local cafes. My kids wish we lived closer to visit again. The service was great! read more

Just moved to the area and this is now my top coffee shop. Great breakfast menu (the portions are huge!), great coffee, cutest shop with plenty of seating. The barista who took care of me was so kind. The environment was welcoming, I'm obsessed. read more

Wow! I was skeptical of a coffee shop being so famous for waffles. I ordered the peanut butter/Nutella waffle almost as a dare. Let's see if you've really got waffle-game Open Doors. So, yeah, they've got serious waffle game. This thing was amazing. Also had some scrambled eggs and bacon as sides and both were very good. Ordered a latte, which was great, but also not always the best way to test out good coffee. That said, I thought it was a really good latte. Was able to sit outside on the porch and enjoy the beautiful morning. All in all, this is a strong-recommend for anyone looking for good coffee and a creative, tasty breakfast. read more

Nice little place with great service! This quaint little shop has many different coffees to choose from. I was tired after driving from Jacksonville Florida and just asked for a strong black coffee. They have many flavors and bean types to choose from. Breakfast bowls are offered, with taste and fresh items galore. I ordered the Open Door Bowl- a healthy morning option. With scrambled eggs and sausage, it covers roasted sweet potatoes . Sautés spinach covers this and blue cheese is generously crumbled on top. While adding flavor, I would have preferred something less potent, like goat cheese. But wow! $11 Located close to the library, parking and seating is ample but not for large crowds. They sell cute wares inside: purses, earrings and even bumper stickers. Overall a cute place. But for $32/couple, I will be going elsewhere my next visit. read more

Quaint coffee shop and cafe. It's great for a date, camping out to study, or catching up with friends. The cafe scene really slacks in Johnson City, but luckily this is one of the few local spots that has stayed in great business. The town really needs more places like this. Things you should know: I. PARKING There's plenty of spaces available for a weekday morning. The drive through is very convenient for a quick run through too. II. SERVICE No complaints. Friendly and informative. III. QUALITY Great! Surprisingly cheap. I got a large cold brew with a couple add-ins (milk of choice and syrup) for only $3-something. Whereas in other locally owned businesses back home it would have been $6-something. Honestly, even franchises like Starbucks cost a lot more than here, but it's not like you get what you pay for. The coffee here is good--my picky palate will vouch for it. IV. CAPACITY I had no issues finding some seating. read more

The service was very disappointing. They got our order and someone else's order mixed up. They ended up giving us food on to go containers. We didn't get utensils. The guy at the cashier was so distracted. Not even apologizing. We had to hustle to actually get what we ordered and then still realized they'd given me green tea with milk instead of a cappuccino. The food actually tasted alright, but they had too many people and not enough hands so the quality actually suffered immensely. read more

Amazing coffee and breakfast with kind workers. Great place to work on homework for students.

It did not dazzle me. $12 plus they asked for a tip for a very tiny chicken salad sandwich and an iced matcha. Matcha was not sweet which I guess was my fault for not ordering anything in it but I thought it was an iced matcha latte. I had to pull around front and wait a long time for my food and their parking lot is very tiny and crowded, I had cars beeping at me to move. It was kind of a mess. Probably wouldn't return. read more

Have traveled the states for 50 years and this is one of the dirtiest coffee shops ever. No one has cleaned in a long time. Stopping over waiting for a ride- toilet seat is not attached to toilet - No paper towels in bathroom- baseboards have years of dust on them- had to wipe down my own table- girls were unwelcoming- kitchen closed right before I got there and they wouldn't even get me some butter for a cold wrapped muffin from the counter. Health department should probably check in. read more

Good coffee served hot! I like that they have a drive through. Friendly service. They are also fairly close to Best Buy.
