The 15 best coffee shops and best cafes in Abilene

This was a very cute local coffee shop. We came at 8pm and there was still a solid crowd. There was a cute authentic feel to it and they seem to have monthly flavors and all of the regular coffees as well. There is plenty of seating. This is probably a good study or social spot for students.

This was my first time coming in since the renovation. They did a great job cleaning the place up while maintaining the original feel of Monks. The coffee is as good as always. Everything is top tier.

What a quaint artsy coffee shop which has a lot of personality, friendly service, wonderful ambience and of course, great coffee. It's in the heart of downtown so it's a wonderful place to go and hang out but then walk around to enjoy the downtown charm of Abilene. In addition to having great coffee, they also have delicious smoothies and unique and wonderful selections of tea. I love the decor with great art from local artists and has a relaxing vibe to the place that makes you want to just hang out with friends and family and enjoy your time together. The service is personalized and they really want to help you find just the right coffee and tea and are highly accommodating with food intolerances. Would highly recommend this coffee shop.

Staff is friendly skilled and remembers you! They make my amazing double-barrel dirty chai latte on the rocks perfectly; which isn't even on their menu They do what they can to keep the transient community from harassing customers outside their shop and even mentioned contacting the city to fix the filter in the waterfall that's right next to their place. If you're wanting to chill in an air conditioned lounge and drink some coffee or play chess this is the place to go in downtown Abilene

Great coffee shop with superb Cold Brew. Worked here while on the road for a few hours. Good WiFi connection and atmosphere. A+

The staff here is so friendly! Their drinks taste great and their pastries fresh. I had a spiced brown sugar latte and a cinnamon brown sugar scone - so good!! Also look how cozy and cute it is!! Do yourself a favor and grab a cup at Monk’s.

Loved the atmosphere. Will definitely be using Monks as our meeting place. Abilene Bighorns will be using this establishment as out meeting spots workers are always super friendly to us and the managers go above and beyond

I had to be productive in between appointments. It was the Perfect place to eat, grab some coffee and finish up some work on my laptop.

On a crisp fall day I highly recommend the hot lavender brevy! They have many bread options for your diet, sensitivity needs. Calm peaceful atmosphere. The patio is by far my favorite place to enjoy in all seasons. The Mac n cheese is delicious and home made.

We come here every Saturday, the crew is awesome..but Oscar just stands out. His glowing personality and attention to customer service just spanks it out of the park. Always happy to see him.

Was hesitant since they underwent new ownership last year, and was pleasantly surprised to see not much had changed. The drinks have been so good. Husband thoroughly enjoyed his salad, and my grilled cheese and tomato basil was so good, I ordered it again to take to work with me the next day. Straight up best tomato soup I've ever had.

Mezamiz Coffee House was fantastic. Chill atmosphere, Friendly and Knowledgeable staff. The food was Fresh and fantastic. I highly recommend the sandwiches or even the spicy hummus. Which, I believe now is my favorite hummus of all time. I have a picture attached of the hummus. Sadly, I didn't get a picture of the sandwich as I already devoured it before taking a picture of it. 🤣😅 We definitely will be back in the future to eat at this establishment. Thank you!

I absolutely love Mezamiz Coffee House. The coffee blends are delicious, the food products are always fresh and varied, and the service is prompt and the baristas are knowledgeable. The atmosphere of Mezamiz is inviting and comfortable, with both indoor and outdoor seating. I suggest you drop in, order your favorite coffee or tea drink and a snack, then settle into a game of chess, or read a book while cuddled on a couch. Bring your date or a group of friends; everyone is welcome at Mezamiz. Oh, don't forget to purchase some delicious chocolate coated coffee beans before you leave.

Way too expensive plus it takes forever to get your order. We’ve been twice and the exact same thing happens, the first person is done eating by the time the second person gets their food. $40 for two people to get a coffee and a small snack.

First time in. We purchased a few beverages. Nice coffee shop on the outskirts of town. Really cool spot. Will visit again when I'm going to Abilene.

First visit & I ordered wrong. It was my fault, but the nice girl at the window said it was ok and she would fix it how I wanted it. I had a blended chai tea with whipped cream. And it was delicious! This is the closest place to my home & I really don't ever go to Starbucks I think it's overrated & the staff treats you like you're stupid. Mad Coffee, will be my new go to & my experience with the staff was so nice & accommodating. I highly recommend it!

Everything tastes better when the service is amazing! My husband and I have been here quite a bit because it's the closest coffee shop to our home. The drinks have been consistently great 👍🏼 and so has the service 😀 Get a donut! They are so good! Went in on a weekend and husband was able to get some biscuits and gravy. He LOVED them. I got a croissant sandwich with egg and cheese and thought it was good.

Loved the feel of this coffee shop right off the bat. They have so many flavor options! Plenty of sugar free ones also, which is a plus for us. I got a sugar free hazelnut latte, extra hot, and my husband had a sugar free Irish crème latte. We also got an everything croissant with sausage, egg and cheese. The croissant was so soft and delicious! They brought our coffees and food out to us. Friendly staff.

The servers were great. The coffee was among the worst I've ever tasted. They brewed it for me 2 ways in an effort to make it drinkable but obviously the owners are sourcing coffee from the local dump.

Great Spot. Great People. Great Coffee. A warm and welcoming environment with an array of offerings. Excellent place to grab a cup to go but also to work, to meet or to relax in.

Beautiful cool spot. Very friendly, personable servers. I wasn't a fan of their cold brew but it was a neat place. They have dog treats.

Really enjoyed my brief stop here. They have some season drinks, as well! This location stayed fairly busy even on a wednesday. Interior is very well balanced and cozy. They have a fireplace and a large group table in a separate area of the shop.

Cute spot that would be good for reading/studying but I wasn't too impressed with my iced coffee, I think the overall flavor and strength of the coffee was weak. The green Chile quiche had good flavor, thick layer of eggs, and flaky crust but was cold in the middle. The Chocolate zucchini bread was a little dry but definitely chocolaty and had a nice amount of walnuts in it. The cinnamon roll was great! Soft, not too sweet, and homemade icing. I also appreciate that the waiting area has a self serve water station.

Front Porch Coffee Shop is an absolute gem! The staff is incredibly nice and professional, making every visit a delight. The menu variety is unbelievable—there's something for everyone, and the baristas are so skilled at crafting different drinks to perfection. The food is also fantastic, with a wide range of delicious options. The space is perfect for both individual and group settings, always super clean and well-organized. Highly recommend this place for a great coffee experience!

I love a good coffee shop. Especially one with a great front porch!!!!! What a cool little shop. In house made syrups and great menu for food and beverage! I had the fireside latte and dang it- I wish I was fireside when I was sipping that lovely latte! I also bought a shirt and I’ve received several comments on the shirt! We will definitely be back!

It was the perfect way to end our road trip. It's a wonderful place, the food, the service, and the atmosphere will captivate you, if you try their cinnamon rolls and the matcha latte, for sure you won't want to leave this place😅. Excellent spot!

I really hate leaving bad reviews, but when they are earned. I ordered online for pickup. It was mostly ready when I got there. They still had to make the drinks. Watching them do so was one of the most disorganized messes I've seen. Apparently, they were out of caramel for the caramel machiato. I watched them shake the hell out of the caramel bottle. When that didn't work, they tried dumping and dribble of caramel from a cup they had sitting some place. Need less to say there was no caramel in the drink. After getting to where I was going and opening the order, I found things missing. What was supposed to be a turkey sandwich was a lettuce sandwich. The chocolate croissant was burnt and, of course, dry. When I tried calling about the missing items, I got their voice mail stating that if there was a problem with my order, I needed to email them. They've already inconvenienced me by not getting my order correct, and I'm inconvenienced further by having to relisten to your voice mail to write down your email so I can email you. I'm too frustrated at this point to care. Disappointment just doesn't even start to describe this experience.

Pastries were delicious and the breakfast sandwich was decent. However the coffee was mid, drip with cream was half and half and the pumpkin spice latte was typical. I wanted the green chile quiche but it would not be ready for 30 minutes or so and I wanted the bagel bombs but same thing with them. Disappointing! So I agreed to a breakfast sandwich instead due to lack of time. The staff was ok but not very explanatory with different types of products, such as 2 different chocolate croissants. Overall a decent breakfast though.

Wonderful bar! So fabulous inside. Very comfortable and chill they even have a game area. Pretty 😎 lol enjoy relax it's a great place highly recommend

Very unique place. I wish I would have come on a night when they have a band. The band sits on a second story balcony type deal. I had a good experience with the bartenders o found a favorite craft beer I would have never tried if they wouldn't have suggested it. Watching Bob Ross on the TV and fear factor on the other is a good way to enjoy a beer if you ask me. Haha

Let me start by saying I have been to multiple places and this spot is as of so far the only place where I've asked for a specific cocktail and the bar tender know what I was asking for...granted I asked for one of the simplest cocktail a (Manhattan). But believe me when I say another of places look at ne funny when I ask for a specific cocktail. All and all not a bad place to have a drink...if u don't mind a little bit of a younger crowd 😉...swing by you may be surprised!!....just to let you know, Juan(the manager) and don't let looks dicive you he knows his stuff....go ahead tests him! Hope you accept the challenge🫡

When we visited The Hallows, we were greeted by Daniel. As future entrepreneurs, we have visited several coffee shops, trying to get some advice and recommendations on the coffee shop business. Daniel was very willing to talk to us, and offered to help train in the future! The drinks we ordered were very good! Atmosphere was great. We will definitely be back when visiting Abilene!

The staff of the coffee portion of the Hallows are welcoming and helpful. They seem to care a lot about pulling quality espresso shots and making coffee drinks properly. Every experience I have had here has been excellent.

I go here at least twice a month and always have a great time. There are always different events going on and the drinks are great. I'm a huge gamer and they have a few game cabinets to play as well.

Nice ambiance, but not a lot of dance floor space. This night club is hip hop and R&B based. The furniture and fixtures are up to date and the restrooms are very clean.

Really enjoyed this coffee shop. The building and decor on itself is very charming. We ordered two expressos and a “flash” that is their version of a cold brew. Coffee were really tasty and I love the fact that we could have our expressos in small ceramic cups as to me that is how they should be served :)

Very cute coffee shop. Drinks were good! Drinks were smaller than other coffee shops we have been to be was overall pleased with our drinks and service!

This was our families first visit and experience at Majestic Coffee. Autumn 🍂 seasonal coffee beverages (hot and iced) were "exceptional" and is what they should taste like, top notch. Seasonal food items are also offered to complement the coffee. Atmosphere is quaint and pleasant making the experience complete. Will definitely be returning.

Majestic Coffee – Abilene, TX Beautiful place with a cozy vibe and friendly service. Their latte is amazing—smooth, rich, and perfectly made. Definitely a hidden gem in Abilene!

Mary was amazing!! Love the atmosphere and it’s a must visit. I felt like I was lost in a book. Great coffee and muffins!

Delicious coffee and muffin. Super friendly customer service. Very calm atmosphere and it was very much needed after sitting in a hospice unit. Love this place and will be back.

The place is very cozy. we ordered the latte but i told the barista we can’t taste any coffee on it. She just say she put 2 shot on it but literally it taste bland and just milk on it.

I thoroughly enjoy getting to have some of the best coffee in town while also enjoying a great and relaxing atmosphere. The employees are kind, helpful and always willing to help me find what I'm looking for. Although it started in April they have grown to become very knowledgable about their coffee and espresso. Also great for kids and moms with the play ground. They definitely hit a niche in the market.

This place has great coffee, great staff/ownership & a great atmosphere. It really is a clean and modern environment in comparison to the other Abilene Coffee Shops. Also, parents it's the only coffee shop in town that has an accessible play place for your kids while you relax with friends and sip coffee. Beltway Coffee Co. is a hidden gem in Abilene and is competing for best coffee shop in Abilene.

I've never considered myself a "regular" anywhere until now. Beltway Coffee Co. is the perfect place to study, relax by myself, or meet with friends. Every employee has always made my drinks well.. and it's fun to experiment with new drinks! The atmosphere keeps me coming, and the mission behind where my money goes keeps me purchasing drinks. Such a great addition to Abilene!

Beltway Coffee Co. is by far the best coffee shop in Abilene. Not only are the employees professional & helpful, but the atmosphere is really like no other place in Abilene. It is relaxing and perfect for moms to bring their kids to play in the INDOOR play area. It is clean, DELICIOUS and a warming environment. I LOVE IT!

The atmosphere is great, is not quiet as a library, but not loud as a concert. Really easy to find a place to rest, study, have conversations, have meetings, etc. I would say that the biggest asset the coffee shop has is the play ground. This opens up a chance for parents to come, and get a little rest while their kids have the time of their lives.

I love how this coffee shop always has great music, great coffee, and wonderful baristas! Every time I come in I am welcomed with smiles from the baristas and sometimes a really great chat! This is the perfect spot for studying and taking a quick coffee break in the middle. I highly recommend you make this place your regular if you are considering a nice coffee shop to do your work at or study at weekly. It is definitely worth it.

First time I went into Beltway Coffee I was immediately welcomed. The staff are not only awesome at making coffee but they are super friendly too. Overall the atmosphere is inviting and great for studying, or casual conversation over a great beverage.

It's probably one of the best places to get coffee right now in Abilene, especially on the north side of town. Inside is very spacious and welcoming. There's a front area good for talking with friends and the occasional live music, and a back area perfect for studying/reading. They even have a meeting room if you need such a place. They have a full coffee menu, with all the perks. There's a good chance they'll have what you like. As for the people there, they really seem to be passionate about what they are making, coffee and company. Every other time I go, they seem to have something new: a new chalkboard for highlighted menu items, new chairs for out front, new decorations on the wall, or a new event that weekend. The owners and staff are building something really cool at Maslow's, and I always enjoy going to see what they're up to. And, I mean, the coffee's good too.

We have been to Maslow many times and the quality of the coffee is by far the best in Abilene. The atmosphere is very relaxed. I don’t know how they do it, but the decaf pour over is always perfect and doesn’t have that weird decaf taste that most do. And try the pizza! We loved it!

This is my favorite coffee shop in town. Really love the space and atmosphere they have crafted in that building. The staff is always friendly and the coffee is really good. It's nice to have an Indy alternative so close to campus. They have open mic stand up comedy on Tuesday nights too

Probably my favorite place in Abilene to buy coffee from. It smell a little funky occasionally but I don’t mind it as I’m usually too focused on studying. It’s small so it’s hard to get study spots on busy days but it has decent enough internet vs other places I’ve tried and the right environment for a study session.

Stopped in today w/my husband on our way back to DFW since we're big fans of Novel coffee. The coffee shop had a cool vibe, a nice variety of seating and interesting merch. I ordered an iced mocha and hubby ordered an iced coffee w/whole milk and vanilla. We were not fans of the drinks. Like others mentioned, they did taste watery and the coffee definitely seemed under extracted. The iced mocha was a bit bland and and the milky/wateriness was the most dominant flavor. Based on their FB page, Maslow Coffee seems to be pretty new (around 3 months old) so there's definitely room for improvement and fine-tuning. Would be interested to revisit in a few months when we come back to Abilene for a visit.

Maslow Coffee Company is probably the best coffee shop in town. The location is extremely convienent as it is across the street from ACU campus. (not to mention the beautiful decor!) The staff are so genuinely kind and welcoming on top of being knowledgeable about the products offered. I am a Maslow's fan and look forward to trying everything on the menu.

If you enjoy coffee I wouldn't recommend Maslow's. I was travelling through and gave it a shot despite the many other poor reviews. I am leaving 2 stars because the barista and service were both agreeable. However the coffee is just not good. It does seem to be watered down.

My personal favorite coffee shop in Abilene. They may only be a drive through, but their coffee is absolutely delicious. They don't have much of a selection on food, but what they do have is decent. The service is always fast and they are always friendly. Best on the go coffee shop in Abilene!

I had a wonderful experience at Statesman Coffee! I went through the drive-thru and ordered a custom caramel latte (wish I could remember the name!)—it was absolutely delicious. The coffee was perfectly balanced, flavorful, and surprisingly affordable. The staff was friendly, and since they weren’t busy, my order was ready in no time. I’ll definitely be coming back for more! Highly recommend this spot for great coffee and great service.

I do not drink coffee that often but I recently found that they make Bulletproof coffee and it is delicious! But it’s not just the coffee that I love about this place. Literally the nicest people, easiest way to get coffee on the go and well worth the price. I would spend all of my money here rather than Starbucks any day. Can’t wait to try more from them!!

I absolutely loved this coffee shop. Outdoor patio seating only at this location. The patio was clean and inviting. The Dirty Chai Carmel Thing and Peppermint Nana were awesome. I was not a big fan of the white chocolate mocha. The medicine ball tea was perfect. Warm fresh out of the oven blueberry scones were delicious. Michaela took our order and was super friendly and patient with the many questions I had. She went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect she even made my baby a treat. Shout out to the entire staff. We were given stickers of the month and they have awesome merchandise. Did I Mention the convenience of the drive thru.

I visited this location 3 times this week, and each time was great! The service is phenomenal! They are kind, competent, and obviously well-trained. It's rare to see that kind of consistency anywhere anymore.

The coffee was good for a drive-through. Patio seating is a nice touch. The walk-up window is difficult to find. I included a video here so you can see how to access it. It should have better signage to the window. It feels like you're trying to sneak in through the back door. Also, the alcove tends to catch everything that the wind blows in. The barista could do a better job keeping the walk-up area clean.

The people at The Statesman Coffee Company are very friendly. We waited a little while to get our order, but the drinks tasted great when we got them. We highly recommend them!

This place is so disappointing now that it’s not Nikki’s. We went and when trying to use the middle dispensers to mix two flavours, it only dispensed one flavour and I didn’t want that and was told to just throw it away or add some of the other flavour. Turns out the other flavour was completely empty anyways. Half of the topping dispensers were empty, and the ones we tried to use didn’t even work. Most toppings were empty. And their espresso machine was apparently broken and they couldn’t make any coffee. 🙄 I paid $25 for ice cream I didn’t even want bc it dispensed the wrong flavour 🤷

First time client and for three very small frozen yogurts we paid over $22. The place is smelly as well as very dirty. There are splatter marks all over the shop ,on the chairs, the walls etc. Most of the froyo machines were out of order leaving almost no flavors to choose from. Bathrooms are extremely dirty with urine on the floors. The place looks rundown and not taken care of. Unfortunately never going back with our family.

Went in for a quick night treat they had three flavors, watermelon, chocolate or vanilla. Not interactive to us and options were far from what we expected for a yogurt place. We spent $18 for two small cups not even filled up. Also to add these were basic ice creams (choc and vanilla) because there were no options. Could have gotten 2 gallons of ice cream for the price of these.

We were so disappointed with this experience. We walked in and the place reeked of disinfectant, the yogurt was icy instead of creamy, the brownie bits were stale, and we spent $10 for the small size with hardly any toppings. Won’t be going back.

I don't like all the flavors they have but I can always find something I really like. The banana, banana pudding, vanilla, chocolate, salted caramel are all really good. I am sure others like some of the other tons of flavors that move in and out. They have tons of toppings but I don't roll like that but I am sure they are good. You pay by the once so make sure you don't over do it. You can taste anything you like before buying as well. I don't drink coffee but I hear it is good.

Every time I’ve been here the customer service is horrible. Nobody comes to the counter until it’s time to checkout, when they do come out, they only say “cash or card” and give no eye contact, and sometimes they will even be on their phone while checking me out. Multiple employees act this way. This last time I went, toppings weren’t filled/ there were barely any to choose from, and there were very few frozen yogurt options. Super disappointing, it seems like the managers don’t even read reviews considering how many people complain about customer service and nothing changes:(

Will never attempt to go again. I overpriced to begin with, but took my daughter at 1, they said they were closed due to a private party, but would be open at 3. Went back shortly after 3 and they now closed until 4 to clean up after the party. Went to Shaved Ice Shack across the street and paid much less for better product!

Since moving out here to the country the Mule Barn has become my one stop coffee shop (at least 3 times a week😉) the convenience of being here in my home town and the feel of family who could want more!!! So Blessed they are here!

This is my kind of place. It is a very rustic environment with very friendly people. They are also Christian people which I loved as well. You can tell that they care for their customers in both a service way as well as a godly way. Their coffee was great! Store was great, and service was great.

I love everything about the mulebarn.... sweetest, friendliest staff and the environment is so welcoming. Prayer box is awesome too and I know it has helped. My kids and I have a Saturday tradition there. They are all so generous to our community too.

Tried out several local coffee shops in the area & hands down the BEST drinks and customer service. After my 3rd visit I consistently get a great tasting beverage AND extremely pleasant employees. Note: I very much appreciated the choices they gave me when ordering.

Wow! I'm a big time coffee drinker. Stopped by to pick up a coffee and chi tea for my sister. They were Perfect! Absolutely delicious! The service was helpful and friendly as well.

My favorite coffee stop. Puts starbucks to shame. Any time I have visitors out of town I bring them to mulebarn to try the best iced coffee around. The staff is so friendly and it's a comfy and relaxing place to sit back and enjoy your drink too!

Great atmosphere, wonderful staff, great drinks and munchies! They have games and lots of comfy seating to enjoy as well! Easy access right off the highway. We recommend this place over and over again!

Stopped in for lunch recently and really enjoyed the experience. The staff was friendly, and the food was amazing, all handmade by folks who clearly love food. The environment was really neat too. Setup in an old craftsman-style house, it was comfortable and inviting. The details in the decor were topped only by the attention to detail in their food. Everything was fresh, the quiche was delicious, and peach tea is probably the best peach tea I have ever had. I will definitely be back.

Oh my goshhh it was delicious. The zucchini bread was amazing, the Wisconsin cheese soup was AMAZING, chicken salad AMAZING! I came for my birthday I had never been before, now I’m gonna have to make this a monthly thing

Hickory Street Cafe is a must if you’re in Abilene, Texas. This cafe that serves up some of the best homemade zucchini bread that you’ll ever come across and can be bought in loaves to go, is only open during the week for lunch. It also serves salads, sandwiches, soups and other fresh baked goods. The children’s menu includes Mac and cheese, which was a hit with some of our group. The chicken salad and quiche were also made with fresh ingredients. I had a sandwich with a side of the cream of potato soup and fresh fruit cup topped with yogurt… delightful combination. And what’s better than a good meal served with a raspberry ice tea with free refills. It was a charming atmosphere in a historic home with very tasty food. In fact we bought a few loaves of the zucchini bread to take back home because it was that good. Tip - make reservations to make sure there’s a table available. Highly recommend!

Something has changed. In the past it was delicious. Last visit, cold hard sandwich with 1 slice of meat, no potato sticks or pasta salad on my to go order. Potato soup has changed, texture is gel like. Only good thing was the zucchini bread! Overall, very disappointing.

First time here, it will not be my last! Came after lunch rush and it was peaceful, but I’m sure even with a ton of people the food/service no doubt would still be just as excellent! Words couldn’t express the attentiveness our waitress provided! (Unfortunately I cannot remember her name! Sorry!) and the front desk lady gave the most warm welcoming and cheery feel! The atmosphere was bright and airy. The decor was spectacular and gave you a farm/cottage house feel. We had the Philly cheesesteak, chicken salad sandwich, and the side fixings of pasta salad, broccoli cheddar soup, potato sticks, zucchini bread (absolutely delicious!!) , paired with their sweet iced peach tea! Please, if it’s a lovely day or even a rainy one… stop in and have brunch or lunch! You will not be disappointed!

I've been going to Hickory Street Cafe for about 6 years and have seen this restaurant progressively charge more for their food and shrink the portion size . It's unfortunate that I have to write this, but the owner needs to know customers are noticing, and like me, are not happy about it. The price does not justify the amount of food being served and the food being served is not that expensive to source. It's chicken salad. Starting to get out of hand and heading in the wrong direction.

This is such a great lunch spot! Went with a friend, and we both ordered the same thing. The Salad Sampler with Maple Vinaigrette. It came with their very popular chicken salad, a pasta salad with chicken, and a garden salad. It also came with 2 pieces of zucchini bread. I liked the pasta salad with chicken. It was tangy, and the chicken had good texture but not really any flavor. The chicken salad was a flavor bomb in your mouth! Wow! Awesome flavor. BUT I got WAY too many fatty, rubbery, grisly pieces to be able to thoroughly enjoy it, which was a bummer. But I did eat the pieces that I could tell would have a good texture. I ordered their vegetable of the day quiche, to go, which was a broccoli mushroom. It was delicious! I also ordered a bowl of broccoli parmesan soup to go and did not like the texture of this soup at all, but the flavor was very good! It was goopy. Reminded me of paper mache glue. The raspberry iced tea was very good. It's not too sweet, very refreshing. I will go back because it's a nice spot for lunch. But I will definitely try other things or maybe stick with the quiche!

We stopped by for a late lunch while driving across west Texas. I'm so glad we chose to go off the beaten path and give this place a chance. It's so charming! The customer service was outstanding-helpful, friendly, and attentive. The locale/property is very nice. We opted to eat outside and it was very comfortable. The food was good and reasonably priced. There are 2-3 vegetarian options here. We drive through Abilene a few times a year and we'll definitely be back.

Seen reviews thought we’d give this place a try. Quaint little place.. former residential place turned into this cafe bistro. Chef is onsite! 🫶🏽 Baked savories and sweets is part of their menu. Friendly local staff and generous serving of help if you have any questions. Ordered the meatballs with provolone - meaty morsels and that melted cheese, Turkey BLT on a super tasty focaccia that is yummy with every bite plus the ground mustard just compliments this sandwich so well. What’s better on a hot Texas summer day than iced tea- peach or blackberry. Every table has a different set of salt and pepper shakers.. adds to the charm of this place. They offer back patio seating.. it’s quaint but enough to transport you back to your Grammy’s shaded back porch for a glass of iced tea and a bite to eat feeling If we’re not in hurry next time, plan to try their amazing looking cookies and mini Key lime pies or flourless chocolate baked goods.

My husband and I came here to escape the scorching hot sun, and to our surprise found a cute little spot that filled our little tummies. Just be aware if you get the tea it is not sweet. The workers were sweet and nice and the blonde waitress was quick to assist people and quick on her feet. Would definitely recommend!!

Easily the best kept secret in Abilene. Food is so fresh and affordable and I had not one but two staff members come check on my lunch to be sure it was good. Adore this place!

Visited Sweet Thyme Kitchen today! Such a cute, fun, friendly environment. Service was Phenomenal and food was super delicious!! Prices wonderful and chef/owner so inviting! What a great stop for a nice calm sit with friends. Loved the desserts!! Those were my favorites! 😍#TravelTexicanAdventures #madefromscratch #chef #thyme #bakery #sandwich #chickensalad #Texas #texascheck #flavors

There was a line since a seminar just let out at the hotel so they couldn’t control that. Chicken salad sandwich was delicious! I also ordered the cinnamon roll bread pudding, which was just ok. I was definitely missing a pinch of salt to round out the flavors. But overall we enjoyed the food.

Yum-o! I thought I had been here before, but it turns out it was a different place. I got the watermelon salad and added chicken salad. What a perfect lunch! The watermelon was ripe, with no seeds, so texture was just right. The mozzarella balls were a good touch. It's common to see watermelon feta salads, but this version was better imo. The chicken salad was very good. The flavor was mild but still flavorful. The chicken was shredded with no nasty gristle. The celery pieces were 5 as someone who hates celery, I didn't mind it at all this time. I LOVED the honeydew agua fresca. I ended up drinking one with lunch and buying one for the road! I also got a banana pudding to enjoy at home and wow....it was scrumptious. Can't wait to try more stuff!

Ordered a lemon loaf, small drip coffee, and a strawberry lemonade. Waited 20 minutes until I asked about our drinks and the barista said drip coffees don't get stickers so maybe that's how the order was missed (even though we ordered a lemonade as well). Our drinks didn't go to the top of the queue since I got my small drip coffee 5 minutes after that. The wife ended up asking for a refund for the lemonade since she never got it. Some feedback for the store: if someone’s drink order gets missed, their orders should get a higher priority. Things happen but make it right if the store messed up. Also, need to look into how drinks are tracked if it comes down to a sticker for a customer to get their drip coffees and lemonades.

This is the second time I've had this happen to me in less than a month. I usually don't notice at the window because I typically order additional coffees, so I guess that parts on me, but come on, this is supposed to be a grande and there's about a third of the coffee missing.

Madison made my visit today. You could tell it was VERY busy or that there was an understaffing problem as the drive through line did take quite a while, but that was no bother to me once I placed my order for a lemonade refresher. Upon getting to the window, Madison let me know that unfortunately they were out of lemonade. She offered to make the drink with coconut milk instead, and I was wary of this option because I don’t love coconut. After expressing my concern that I may not like it, she made me a sample size of the drink with coconut milk to try first. Turns out I loved it! So she made me the drink with the coconut milk only to have a supervisor find some lemonade in stock; rather than only give me the alternative drink with coconut milk, she gave me both the lemonade and coconut milk based drinks. She totally could have left me none the wiser but instead was honest and giving! Maybe this isn’t a big deal, but def made my visit today. Thank you Madison, I hope you get good kudos from this!!!

There are a lot of Starbucks in Abilene but I have to say this one was the best tasting. I came in and got a caramel cold brew with oat milk. I don't know what the young lady behind the counter did but it was top notch, only took off a star because of the seating area, it could use some updating,

Why am i paying $7 for a coffee getting asked for a tip yet the cashier cant even take my card for payment. they hand you the card device uncleaned by anyone sense they unboxed it. they are colling fingerprints and gunk like Pokémon cards

Very nice felt welcome

Great place to get a cup of Joe or latte. Service was good and fast and staff is friendly as well. At first I thought a little unkept but noticed they got on it right away. They paid attention to detail.

Arrived and toaster was broken, no eggs whites available, no mushrooms or spinach. Additionally there wete only a few bagels left by 930 on a Saturday morning, so I don't know if they were made today or yesterday. So...that was disappointing. Will stick to big city Einsteins.

Good food, and decent coffee. Customer service, however, not so great. Terribly impatient, and whenever I asked for a mocha, she rang up a coffee, then whenever I asked about it, proceeded to tell me I never said anything about a mocha, and had an attitude about it.

Good food with decent waiting time. Even as a first-timer, you won't go wrong if you ask the barista. Clean and professional as well.

This Einstein's Bagels is soooooo good

Fresh bagels. Pricey.
