Everytime I'm in the area I can't help but stop by for a shaken espresso!! I especially love that they have a maple syrup option instead of refined sugar!!! I always get a shaken espresso with maple syrup & sea salt (no milk) so YUMMY! read more

Stopped into Trummer's Coffee & Wine Bar and was pleasantly surprised by how warm and welcoming the vibe was. The staff was friendly, attentive, and created the kind of easygoing atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer. I ordered the spicy margarita, and not only was the presentation gorgeous, but it was genuinely delicious -- the perfect balance of heat and flavor without being overpowering. The only downside was the noise level; it was a bit louder than expected for the space. Still, it didn't take away from the overall experience enough to keep me from coming back. All in all, a solid spot with great energy, tasty drinks, and staff who make you feel taken care of. I'd definitely return! read more

I lived in Germany for 14 years. This place is amazing. Love the service.... 3 servers touched my table and checked in on me. I felt loved. Ambience is very comfortable. You could come with family or by yourself and still feel comfortable. Lastly the food was very tasty. Since it was my first time here I tried a couple of different things: truffle fries - WOW!!!! Trummer's Espresso Martini - MMM! & a CHOCOLATE CROISSANT- baked to perfection . read more

This is my third visit here, and it never disappoints! If you're dining in, you'll order right at the table. The chocolate tart is my absolute favorite. Their paninis are also delicious and definitely worth trying. I've tried both the latte and cappuccino and they were decent but not particularly memorable. I might explore a different drink next time. Overall, it's a great spot to grab lunch or enjoy a coffee break while shopping in the area. read more

I realized I already left a review 8 yrs ago and was coming back to say all the same things. Horrible food, service, and ambiance. Can't believe they've been in business all these years. read more

Rainy day while shopping at promenade commons....no problem. Stop by Trummer's. This quaint little place offers coffee and adult drinks to keep you awake. The ambiance is light and breezy. I got a latte and a tiramisu. Both were great. But if you prefer a martini, you can get that too. Service was fast and friendly. So, if you're looking for a spot to just chill and sip, this is a great spot. read more

Went a while back and had a caramel latte and chocolate croissant. Everything was fresh and tasty. Service was good and ambiance is nice with limited seating and not very spacious if too crowded. Not dog friendly. There is outside seating but all umbrellas but one were broken so we could not go one day we were passing through with the dogs. read more

Came in for a drink before dinner and was pleasantly surprised. My husband had the Pain & pleasure and loved it . It's awesome! My wine was fabulous. The staff were friendly and helpful.

I got up early this morning and took a drive to Gainesville to checkout the Coffee and Wine Bar. Coffee & Wine my to favorite drinks. I started with a drip coffee which was delicious, the coffee was full of body. Then I noticed that they had a Wellness Latte so I had to try one. So I got the Golden Tumeric Latte, a very healthy latte. To top it off I got the Apfel Cake... OMG. The cake took me back to Germany. The Apfel cake was nice and hot, not to sweet, the cream was fresh and the crust was crispy. Amazing I can tell you the service was welcoming from the front door and all though the service. It is a very comfortable atmosphere. read more

Trummer's Coffee & Wine Bar - Wine Bars Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

This place is a must stop whenever I am in the Gainesville area!! I've been here a handful of times with friends for coffee, brunch, and drinks. The place is super cute and cozy. It can get pretty busy for brunch or lunch during the weekdays so keep that in mind when visiting. The service is honestly hit or miss - sometimes it's super fast and other times it's not so great. The food and coffee though is worth it and keeps me coming back. read more

Was busy and food looked great so thought we would try it. Was offered to sit down anywhere by the manager but as soon as we did it's like we turned invisible despite an unprofessionally dressed server who walked past us several times and seemed to sneer rather than smile. Not a word spoken by any of the staff. Decided to leave, told the manager, and specifically expressed my empathy for how busy it was but for that particular waitress, totally unsatisfactory. read more

This place is truly heaven on earth. I don't want any of you to come here cause I always wanna be able to have a seat at the bar. read more

Trummer's Coffee & Wine Bar - Not me - Wine Bars Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

This cafe has been here for several years now. My wife and I have had a chance to frequent the place many times over the years and it has managed to maintain a certain charm in atmosphere as well as uniqueness in quality and style of cuisine that really stands out. The staff that have worked here over the years, and newer staff, always work so hard. They hustle to get drinks made, food out, and keep a happy customer. It's noticed, even when it's not mentioned. This is an excellent place and Gainesville is fortunate to have it. Thank you to the staff for all you do and the owner for the vision to bring it here! read more

Some of the pastries are 5*, but the way the croissants get handed to you is like someone is balling up a sweatshirt and throwing it at you. It's happened at least 3 times. You're supposed to hand it over without whipping the bag in a circle in the air giving it a rolled up like a ball type of treatment. If you must fold the bag fold the top of the edge to give it something to grasp. Do not try and pack it tight. It is a croissant. A croissant is a fragile flaky crispy pastry that's supposed to not be crushed, but given plenty of space. And don't give me a drink that you touched at the top where I'm supposed to put my mouth. Rookie move. How many other people's stuff did you touch before you touched my cup? Gross. Basic food service tips. I would appreciate your consideration. Thank you. read more

Absolute favorite place for coffee and breakfast. Amazing atmosphere and very friendly staff!

Went here for my first time and was greeted by a smiling hostess named Marley who was AWESOME! I did not see Green Matcha on the menu and she strongly suggested I try the Lavendar which was SO delicious with Soy milk! Definitely going back because her service was that outstanding and the drinks were perfect! Thank you Marley from table 22 :) read more

A lovely coffee shop! My family and I were doing a road trip down to Charlottesville and stopped here for morning coffee and breakfast. We ordered yogurt with blueberries and granola, a ham and cheese croissant, and an iced latte. The latte was delicious, along with both breakfast items! Their pastries looked so good we took some for the road and loved them! Service was also great! It's located at a shopping plaza, so there's plenty of things to do afterwards. Highly recommend and hope to drop by another time! read more

This spot surpassed my expectations!!! The host and the bartender were lovely and told us a little about the owners and menu options. All seems fresh and curated to fit their vibe and brand. I ordered the titantic martini (their signature) it came with a grape at the bottom of the glass to signify the sunken titanic and very Finely shaved ice shaped into icebergs on top! The taste wee lightly sweet with some notes of Concord grape. Amazing and paired well with "my heart will go on" on my insta story. My friend loved thier espresso martini! I also tried the sage martini which was very delicate and light! We also ordered the charcuterie tray and the honey Dijon mustard they make in store STOLE the show! Portion sizes are moderate. We also ordered the carprese panini and were underwhelmed on that item only because it was a little bland- we ordered some more mustard and that helped :) I can't wait to visit the Clifton location now! This shop seems like the perfect place for a work from Café situation, date night, or casual happy hour! Make sure to check it out!! They run specials for 1/2 off titanic martinis on mondays! read more

My sister and I just got back from Barcelona, Spain where we had this amazing Chai Latte so we had to try it here. Three sizes to choose from and different milk options. Wow - it was soo good. Now I just want to go there every day just for that. We also got breakfast. She got the quiche with kale salad and I got the breakfast panini. We both became members of the clean plate club. The crust on my panini was a bit hard, but not too thick and full flavored. Unfortunately I didn't think to take a photo of any of it until we were almost finished! They also brought a bottle of tap water for the table. Staff was very attentive. And while every outdoor table with an umbrella was taken when we got there, there was plenty of space inside. It's not a large place but I can see a potential book club meeting there every month! Nice music in the background did not create a more noisy environment. There is also free Wi-Fi. I forgot to check out their pastry offerings but my sister checked them out and said they were unique instead of the same "Ms Desserts" everyone has. Go. Enjoy. Meet a friend. Sip a latte. read more

This place never disappoints!!! I make it a point to visit here when I am in the area. I always love their coffee. The artwork on the latte today was so beautiful!!! I asked for egg whites only for the egg and ham brunch. Wish it was tad bit less oily. None the less, it made the taste buds happy read more

Love everything about this place!!! From the food to the bar and everything. Service can be a little iffy but the food is well worth it!

Excellent service and very pleasant servers. The food was delicious. Would definitely recommend this establishment to family and friend.

Definitely 5 star!!!! Everything we had here was fantastic! The coffees and lattes were amazing. The service was great, and they have the busiest, hardest working baristas! We tried a regular coffee, 2 different lattes and a matcha latte. All were excellent! Exactly how we ordered them. We tried the madame croquet, breakfast panini, ham and cheese croissant, bread pudding and a danish. None of these disappoint! The breakfast panini was crunchy and hot and fresh. The croquet was basically a stacked breakfast sandwich with and egg on top and it was also very good. The strawberry bread pudding came with strawberry whipped cream and all of the above was home made! . They have a nice clean bathroom that is well decorated. read more

Not a great experience for two main reasons: poor customer service and overpriced menu. Overheard male staff member pause chitchat with his friend/visitor to talk down to his female coworker, and I thought this incredibly rude and unprofessional. Meanwhile, this woman was hustling to maintain some semblance of customer service because her front-of-house counterpart was very flighty (we sat outside but came inside to order at bar because she didn't check with us; ordered extra bread and had to remind her; etc.). Not sure if service is always like this or overwhelmed during busy hours, but that doesn't change the condescending way in which the male staff member spoke to his colleague. Food was okay, wines were nice (even though pours were super inconsistent), but neither was worth the price. Will not return. read more

A great date spot! While they call themselves a coffee & wine bar, I would definitely say they do a better job at the "bar" part. The coffee and pastries are okay, but not amazing. However, the food and cocktails are delicious! It's also a great atmosphere to meet up with friends or spend a nice day (there is some outdoor seating) In the past few years that I've been coming here, the service can definitely be hit or miss. I think this is probably partially to blame on the way the resturant is set up- you can sit at the bar, tables, or do takeout - and this can be confusing at first. In my experience, it's best to sit at the bar. Table service can be slow. Great spot for a small bite and drinks after shopping/movies/etc in the area! read more

I love Trummer's, always a great product and awesome service. I mostly sit at the bar where Tony, JR, Jordan, and many others do a great job at making one feel welcome and taken care of. The menu is healthy, delicious and affordable. The drinks, also affordable, are fantastic. Keep up the good work guys, you're a gem of a place! read more

I don't drink coffee often but I would totally come back here for it!! I had a Vanilla macchiato, beignets, and truffle fries. The truffle fries were great though the beignets were my favorite which figures because I have an absolute sweet tooth. I adored the bourbon butterscotch dipping sauce that came with the beignets, which were the perfect texture! The staff was friendly and helpful; I was helped by Ariel and Su during my visit. The place is cozy but also has a modern open vibe so it works for people meeting up with friends and for people who want a change of scenery while do some work-from-home on their laptops. read more

To be honest, we ended up here because the place we really wanted was closed. But it's the holidays and my birthday so we wanted better than Starbucks! We walked in and the place was jumping at 11 am on a Monday! We found two spots at the end of the bar. My Irish Coffee and chocolate croissant were top-notch. The coffee was so good! Bartender was friendly and attentive, with us and everyone at the bar. My friend and I sat and chatted for almost two hours and didn't feel rushed. What a pleasant experience! I would definitely go back. read more

This place is a simple but cute coffee & wine bar. I came here for the coffee and a quick bite to eat for breakfast to start my busy day. They have a decent menu but could use a little more variety when it comes to food. Then again I wouldn't expect the menu to be too detailed since the space is small and it really is meant for full blown meals. I ordered the coffee and a breakfast panini with a side of truffle fries. The truffle fries are amazing and were cooked perfectly with a good sauce on the side. As for the panini..now dont get me wrong, the bread was crisp and it has potential, but it was lacking in the seasoning department. Seeing that they didnt really have condiments sitting out at your disposal hints that once again...dont come in thinking about having full meals. Overall, the service was great and even though we had to wait for a table to open up due to the small space I could see myself coming back..I'll have my travel condiments with me lol read more

Holy crap... what happened!? The customer service here is nothing like it used to be when I frequented it more often. There's a waitress running around with red hair with an attitude and no idea how to greet new customers. I stood waiting at the register to order and she came up and passed by me 3 or 4 times, no acknowledgment, not even a smile or awareness. Doesn't look like they are properly staffed but that's no excuse. She even printed 3 receipts directly in front of me and the two other people waiting in line. The girl making coffee was nice enough but she didn't greet us folks or even say, "be right with you". If you're slammed... let people know... it was awkward af just standing there not knowing if I was going to receive service. Ended up only getting a cappuccino... mediocre... quite bitter almost burnt. I'm really sad... I used to love this place and recommend it all the time for DC folks coming out to the area. Maybe I got the wrong drink? Either way... I don't think I'll be sending my foodies here until things get better. read more

I have been to Trummer's Wine & Coffee Bar since they first opened and numerous times when I lived in Gainesville and now, when I visit my parents. It used to be a hidden gem that I looked forward to going to. BUT, a lot has changed over the months that I haven't been living here. SERVICE: Absolutely atrocious. I have been here for "brunch" three times now and I have had to wait at least 1.5 hours for my food, coffee, and check. I have been forgotten about for a good 25 minutes and could have easily walked out with no one noticing. There aren't any apologies either. The last time I even waited through a shift change and I had to finish my brunch order with a different waiter! COFFEE: Apparently they changed from Stumptown to Lavazza. Unfortunately, I can't have Lavazza due to GI issues. Also, they didn't mention on their website or store that they changed and I found out rather quickly I can't have their coffee anymore. That is disappointing since that was what I really craved there. I would even get just coffee to go--it was THAT good. FOOD: The food is more or less the same quality, but they have gotten completely rid of the brunch menu! I remember the pancakes and other delicious items that you could only get during brunch hours and they did away with them. I would drive 30 minutes to get their brunch and once again, it wasn't announced they they discontinued it. Now, they have the same menu all day, which really took the allure away. ATMOSPHERE: The atmosphere is nearly the same, but now I'm seeing more and more people that stay with laptops or just an empty mug for a long time, which makes finding a table hard for people that are coming in. There should be a rule, like other coffee shops, that there is a limit while staying there since it's a place on the smaller side. Also, it really takes a while to get your food and/or coffee. There is a difference between allowing room for conversation and feeling like you're forgotten. Unfortunately, I will not be returning for all of these reasons and I would be great if some changes could come to Trummer's to make me reconsider. read more

The Trummer's restaurant is my favorite so I was happy to discover this. The server was friendly and helpful, the food was just amazing (I got baked brie and a lavender matcha), and the atmosphere was fun.
