As the friend-groups coffee connoisseur, I've been to a TON of coffee places. This is a list of my absolute favorites. Minimal chains, because in my experience the "mom-and-pop" coffee shops are the best ones.

The vibes are 10/10 and the coffee and snacks are delicious!
Cafe Duro
A go-to for warm, quirky vibes, delicious seasonal coffee options and don't forget to try their salmon avocado toast!
Halcyon
Great coffee, vibes, and snacks! Come here to study, gather, work or just enjoy the atmosphere!
Toasted Coffee + Kitchen
North Dallas, Dallas
Great espresso and drip coffee and a fantastic place to spend the evening with other adult beverages. Though they don't have a full menu, Civil Pour is immediately surrounded by whatever food you can imagine.
Civil Pour Coffee + Beer
Any of the White Rock Coffee locations are great, but this one has a solid seating selection. You can drive through if you'd like, but the experience is on the inside!
White Rock Coffee
The interier of Fairgrounds is really what sets it apart. It truly caters to every type of coffee-shop-meet: worker, conversational, social, solo.
Fairgrounds Craft Coffee and Tea
Richardson, TX
Picturesque and has the BEST turkish coffee and palestinian flavors!
La Souq
Delicious espresso and snacks! A smaller space, but they have the cutest covered patio. Check out their Roastery right down the road!
Eiland Coffee at Canyon Creek
Best spot for coworking (with really decent day-pass rates!) and the coffee is incredible. The cafe itself has minimal seating, but I love to pop-in for an on the go coffee. AWESOME Tea selection as well!
Communion Coworking & Event Venue
Garland, TX
Cozy and wonderful, this is a landing zone for the friend group everytime we're together. There's a beverage for everyone, and the food is delicious.
Rosalind Coffee
Absolutely Instagrammable and a hidden gem in Garland. If you like sweet-sweet coffee and a pink ambience, this is your spot!
Pink Coffee
Another cute church-based coffee location that insists on welcoming everyone warmly. Their espresso is incredible, and they have my most favorite Mocha, hands-down.
The Vive Coffee
Plano, TX
Find me HERE for the best cup of coffee and slice of pie
1418 Coffee - Historic Downtown Plano, TX
Their espresso never lets me down. Connected with a local church, the environment is lovely and super welcoming for ALL. Fantastic outdoor space and the inside space is massive as well.
Local Good Coffee Co.
Frisco, TX
SUUUPER vibey, but they don't miss with the coffee aspect. A little on the pricier side, but everything is in Frisco. Great interior space, and delcious selection of snacks!
Karmic Grounds
If you're a for-real coffee lover, you MUST come to Kona in Frisco. Direct from the Big Island, this coffee is first-class. The space is open, airy, and definitely gives Island vibes, and the snacks and menu are incredible. The musubi is the real dea...
Kona Reserve Coffee
I have been to the original in North Carolina and had it again on a family trip to Waco, TX. I was over the moon when they opened a location in Frisco, and was almost in tears on my visit. Not only is the vibe full of love and compassion, but the cof...
Bitty & Beau's Coffee
McKinney, TX
These people KNOW COFFEE. I can order an iced cortado here and they make it exactly right (that's not a thing in most other coffee shops). Located in the cutest part of downtown McKinney, parking is a little rought, but absolutely worth it. Massive i...
Collective Coffee
If you want something a little more “hidden” and “vibey” this is your spot. They do coffee VERY well, and have a ton of other beverage options.
Filtered
Tiny interior, so I would recommend getting this beverage to-go, but look at all the cute plants for sale while you're here! The coffee is great, but what makes this place stand out is there ceremonial-grade Matcha and their to-die-for chai latte! Th...
Habitat Plants + Coffee
Melissa, TX
Another church-based coffee location, but with a deceptively large space for all! Massive interior is perfect for any type of gathering, and the covered patio and out door space is wonderful for letting little ones run around. Delcious coffee and inc...
