My wife suggested JoJo's Espresso to me - - I knew she had enjoyed her coffee dates with a friend, but I told her I need a place to eat, not just drink coffee. She assured me that the menu was more than enough also knowing that my friend and I like to have healthy options. I was not prepared completely for how unbelievable of an experience we had. The service was spot on. The layout is immaculate. And, even with a full restaurant by the time we were leaving, I could hear him (I oftentimes have trouble in public spots). I'll take pics of food next time! And their food menu is one that I could literally order anything and be happy with. This first trip I had a breakfast bowl.

Delightful little coffeeshop in Germantown! :)…read more I came here to refuel after attending a funeral and before transitioning to a family dinner. It's in a cute shopping center. A lot of the businesses seem quite busy, so parking is a little bit of a hassle, but not too bad. I rolled into a very nicely decorated, welcoming space. It's roomier than I expected with plenty of tables to work, eat, or gather. They offer coffee drinks, pastries, and even full breakfast and lunch - think sandwiches, fruit bowls, salads, waffles, etc. I made my way to the register. The young lady who took my order was effusively nice and very friendly and I enjoyed chatting with her a little bit - apparently, neither one of us are from the Memphis area, haha. I ordered a latte of some sort (can't remember the exact name but it was their take on a biscoff cookie latte) and a muffin to go. I was able to make myself a quick complementary cup of cool water at the self-serve station as well as napkins, straws, etc. my order came out quickly. Overall, I was quite pleased. The muffin was loaded with chocolate chips and also had very pleasant notes of cinnamon and other warming spices. The latte had the perfect amount of ice in it and a discernible, fairly strong biscoff taste, which I enjoyed. My one main wish was that it been mixed a bit more before served; most of the syrup was at the bottom and came through in either gigantic overwhelming mouthfuls or not at all. However, that was a fairly easy remedy to render myself with a few good stirs of my straw. I'd say this visit is a 4.5. This coffee shop is close to my aunt's house and I will definitely return next time we visit the Memphis area. If quality remains consistent, it'll be an easy round up to a 5 next time. Thanks, JoJo's!

I highly recommend their summer matcha with rhubarb! It had the right amount of sweetness and was absolutely delicious! We came right before they closed at 4pm, so service was very quick and easy.

If you were looking for a sweet treat or an afternoon, pick me up, this is the place to go! The café bakes pastries daily and holy moly are they good! We went on Monday, which was dough day, and it smelled amazing inside. I got a red bean cream cheese bun (pink pastry) which was fluffy sweet bread with sweetened red bean and cream cheese. For those not familiar, sweet red bean is a staple in Asian dessert and it adds hardiness and texture to a pastry. I also got a Tokyo banana cream roll which was half a banana covered in chocolate mousse wrapped in a small fluffy pancake. Finally I tried the New York Chocolate Chip Cookie, which had peanuts inside - yum! 10/10 for flavor and freshness. In addition to pastries, they also have shave ice or bingsu. This is such a wonderful creamy/icy treat to have on a hot day. The individuals working at the counter were super helpful and able to explain all of the desserts we weren't familiar with. I was very impressed with the drink selection. They have boba tea, milk tea, fruit tea, and coffee. Most drinks can also be made non-dairy with alternative milk. I ordered the iced cherry blossom latte with almond milk and it was flavorful, but not too sweet - very good! Super excited to know that they have vegan and non-dairy milk for coffee and tea! I was also impressed by the clear allergy list. This is a great spot for individuals with dietary restrictions. This is a great place to come with a friend to catch up or to take your kids for a sweet treat. Interior is small, but has adequate seating for those wishing to enjoy their treats in-house. There is street parking available or garages close by. Amazing place - if I lived in Memphis I'd be here all the time!! 10/10!

The cube had a strawberry cream inside that was light and not very sweet. The texture of the bread was fluffy. I also ordered a Bing or meat pie. It was tasty but a tad salty for me. It is made to order so you need to wait five minutes for it to be prepared. The decor is so cute and inviting. The space is pretty large and there are many tables and chairs inside. I really liked the different tea towels used for decoration about a refrigerator and the restroom entrance. There is art work showing bakery items on the store windows. It is painted on the glass and compliments the bakery. I will be back to try more wonderful goodies. There is coffee and boba tea available too. Great place!

Barefruit Café is my favorite coffee shop in Memphis and the surrounding area. Their coffee is…read moreunmatched, and I love that they're always introducing new flavors and creative combinations. And the cro-nuts? Absolutely to die for. My go-to latte is the blueberry crumble, and my husband's is the salted peanut butter cup. My favorite cronut is the brown butter glaze, but I love trying their new flavors! But what truly makes Barefruit special is the people--the staff and the owners. During postpartum and my transition back to work, I made it a little ritual to treat myself to a coffee and a cronut from Barefruit once a week (or sometimes more- lol). Some days were (and still are) incredibly hard, but I'm always greeted with the warmest welcome and the kindest smiles. They take the time to ask about my son and how I'm doing, and they even help with quick pickup orders, so I'm not late for work. On the toughest days, they somehow just know. Whether it's a joke, a thoughtful question, or simply a friendly smile, they always manage to brighten my morning. They genuinely care about their customers and make you feel like family. Anytime we have friends or family visiting, Barefruit is our first stop--and it's always a hit. I recommend them wholeheartedly and can't wait to see how they continue to grow. I first tried them as a small stand at farmer markets- and am so happy for the shop now! I am a local, but the wait times vary. Some weekends are busy, but I promise it is worth the wait. Barefruit is a must-try... and once you do, you'll keep coming back for more.

I had a butter biscuit this morning for breakfast, and the biscuit was golden, warm, carefully buttered and served with two choices of jelly. This place is a refuge from the hustle of most coffee shops and features indoor and outdoor seating. One thing to note: if you're in a hurry, come on a day when you have time. Service isn't glacially slow, but it's definitely not fast. That's part of the charm.

It's inside the Front Porch building--a new community hub on the campus of Second Baptist Church on Walnut Grove. Bottom line: it's a legit addition to Memphis's coffee/café lineup. The coffee is decent and the baked goods/food are excellent. Baked goods come from Sweet Lala's and their biscuits are a standout: buttery, flaky, and fresh. The staff are especially welcoming, which makes a bigger difference than people realize. The space is dialed in too--plenty of comfortable seating, tons of natural light, and just enough ambient noise from the nearby co-working areas to stay focused without it feeling dead quiet. Highly recommend. 5 stars.

Well, wow. I found my favorite coffee drink in all of Memphis, I think!…read more Byway Coffee's seasonal Banana Bread Latte is the PERFECT balance of sweet from the banana bread flavoring and more savory from the coffee! It's just so delicious. *worth noting I did ask for the barista to make it a little less sweet than they usually would* It really was perfection in a cup. The banana flavor and the delicious cold foam and bite of cinnamon in every sip is absolutely divine. I don't know how they combined so many flavors in one cup and it all working so well together. But hats off to them for creating such a great drink! We've been here before and really loved the Fruity Pebble Matcha but didn't care as much for the Fruity Pebble Latte (it ended up tasting very bitter). Also worth noting that Byway Coffee is served from a moving food truck and they're so good about posting the upcoming week's variety of locations at the beginning of the week! They're good about communicating changes, too, due to weather or circumstance. Their baristas are so friendly and the vibes are immaculate!
