    Before I moved away this was my spot to work & take meetings as it is positioned perfectly in Gray. Coffee & food has tons of depth & their menu is unique The service is personable & the owners are many times running the show on a regular basis so standards are high Great sense of community inside the shop & great place to take your kids with the setup they have for them

    Almond Butter Banana toast and a Flat White coffee.

    Visited this cute shop for the first time today and absolutely loved it! I ordered a flat white and their Almond Butter Banana toast and it was delicious; light but filling breakfast. Everyone was so nice and the atmosphere is very cozy.

    Still Waters Coffeehouse is right on mission. I stopped at Still Waters on a road trip south and was very grateful to find a spot just off the highway that does a good job preparing drinks and uses good coffee. I typically order a pour over and cortado when I visit a new coffee shop but because I already had 30oz. of coffee on my trip I decided to go with a latte. There latte sizes are 8oz, 12oz, and 16oz. Flat Whites come in one size: 6oz. I ordered an 8oz. latte. The milk was silky and sweet. The espresso tasted pleasant. I would go back and get a latte. Still Waters has an extensive specialty drink menu in addition to their seasonal and traditional espresso drink menu. The atmosphere is friendly and folks seemed to be really enjoying themselves. From just looking at the pictures of the inside I thought it would be a little crowed but when I was there that didn't seem to be the case. The kids section looks really nice and there is a space for parents of kids to enjoy each other's company while their kids place safely within view. A family of four was having a fun time playing a game at their table. Still Waters has a small selection of games. I could definitely see myself going to Still Waters to meet up with friends. 4 maybe 5 is the largest size group you could fit at a table. All the coffee equipment appeared as if they take coffee seriously. I usually take the time to note of the make and model of the equipment. From a glance it appears the equipment is excellent. And the baristas appear to be well trained and it showed in the latte I ordered.

    During a long drive, we pulled off on this exit to stop at Dunkin but spotted Still Water Coffee instead and were delighted we did so! The parking was abundant and it was easy to go to, the staff was super friendly and the whole place had a cozy family feel. I got an iced vanilla latte with stillwater milk (a mix of Oat and Almond) which was a great recommendation. My fiance went adventurous and got a summer special - cold brew with lemonade and peach and it was refreshing with a punch! The menu is huge and there are many options for everyone. Will definitely add this as a stop on my next drive through TN!

    Such a convenient coffee shop right off of 26. We were passing through on our way to NC and wanted to support a local coffee shop. So glad we did. I ordered a flat white, which at Starbucks is usually between a cappuccino and a latte. The one she made me was more the size of a doppio. When I asked her, she explained that a true flat white is made this way. Starbucks does their own thing. She offered to remake my drink which was very kind of her, since it wasn't her fault. My second drink was perfect. I ended up buying a t-shirt to thank her and because it was so nice! Made in Honduras, the material is soft and the color beautiful! The town of Gray and the name of the coffee shop both carry special meanings to me--so a win win.

    While just around the corner I haven't tried this until today and oh that was a mistake. Best cappuccino since living in Europe! Definitely not the mild extra sweet junk that you get at most places, but a true little cup of goodness. Plenty of fru-fru choices but some solid coffee too.

    Wow. This place is wonderful. Im at a conference and don't have time to hang out but I would be here all the time. In my little exploration this place has so many thoughtful little worlds to enjoy your favorite cup and treat. Also has a place for kids to play, games, and a space for some cool merch and local elderberry syrup! Cortado was spot on. There isn't much more to say about that aside from it being done perfectly. This is generally my bar for rating a shop at my first pass. I decided to try a macaroon. They had a banana one! It was great. Pro tip: let it warm up a little. I've found that a lot of places that have really good macaroons keep their cases a little cold. If you bite in right away, you won't get the desired affect for mouth feel. I really enjoyed the banana macaroon. I'm normally a vanilla guy but always buy a few of the jazzy newer flavors. I'd buy one of these again if I was picking up a box. It was unique, and I really enjoy banana candy even though I don't eat bananas much at all. Takes me back to childhood ice cream trucks and those fudge and banana pops. There is ample space here too. Easily facilitates a large group without being interruptive (multiple rooms) and has so many little quiet reading spots. Final note: they have a Public Journal for you to share your heart and muse with the community here. Such a good idea! This place is special and has layers to it. All this info is from my first pass of 10min for a quick cup.

    I highly recommend getting the cookies & crema and also get the pimiento cheese. We try to come here once a month for a girls day. But a caramel affogato & the Ol' Fashioned is also amazing!! .. it's a Christian owned company and we love it.

    Gray TN is a great little town. It ha been even more endearing by Still Waters Coffeehouse. This very quaint, welcomed great coffee house. They have great selection of coffees. If you have high expectations for your coffee houses this should be tops on your list!!! If I lived anywhere in the Tri-Cities this would be my regular hangout. The shop is so comfortably appointed. Great places to meet, have conversation and excellent coffee. We will back, every time we come to town.

    Found this place while we were road tripping, such a cute place with a wonderful concept. They have local coffee shop vibes when you initially enter, but then off to the right side there is a children's play area. There is even a small gate/door (toddler size) to close off the area it's so adorable and I loved the concept of it. We had some coffee, pastries, I had hot chocolate with oat milk and played some Jenga re-energized before getting back on our way!

    We ordered a 6 ounce cappuccino and a 12 ounce Latte. They were very good. The coffee shop is on the larger side and very pleasant.

    Great food great customer service highly recommend this place is gonna become one of my regularsread more

    Reasonably good. Certainly above average for a place in a higher end strip mall. The space was…read morenicely done and spacious. It honestly had the look of a Panera. Navigating the overall experience was a little confusing. There's a clearly visible coffee menu above the counter, but the food menu is somewhat hidden. Fortunately, a staff member noticed my confusion and handed me a menu. There are also portions of the menu that are only available after 11am, and that's not clear on either the menu or the web site. Fine. In terms of food, I ordered a greek crepe with a half greek salad on the side. The salad was good, but not exceptional. Fresh. Crisp. Pre-sliced tomatoes for easy navigation. Probably a little too much feta. The crepe was interesting. It was almost a crepe burrito with greek filling. It was honestly on the heavy side. More crepe than filling, with an extra dusting of cheese on top. In terms of coffee, I would say middling. It wasn't bad coffee. It also wasn't good coffee. Overly bitter and one dimensional. On the other hand, they served the coffee in an oversized ceramic mug, which added some character and quality. Overall, this was a reasonable place to stop for a quick breakfast on a road trip. It wasn't exceptional, and there were some surprises along the way, but the overall experience was fine. It works as a quick pit stop.
