The Golden Roast Coffee Roasters

Absolutely love this cozy little place!!! Great coffee, friendly staff. I like to go here because I can sit and focus for goes at a time and really get work done! I like how it is not "main stream" like Starbucks, but still the right atmosphere for work or hanging out!

The best coffee shop in Knoxville area. This a cozy place. The staff is really really good. The coffee is AWESOME!!! I highly recommend the southern pecan, this coffee is amazing. The cold brews are a really good option on the summer. You can order any coffee on the menu and I promise you won't be disappointed. You can also buy coffee beans there and have their coffee at home.

We stopped here before heading out of town. The atmosphere was great and the barista was super nice. He helped us with our selections because we had never been in this cafe before. The coffee was so good it was hard not to down the whole thing once it cooled off. A lot of specialty shops are too stuck up to help but this one was not like that. Highly recommend this to someone passing through Knoxville.

Weak 4 star college coffee shop. About a dozen tables and a long bar. Nice wooden tables. Blah ceiling and floor. Oldies on audio at low volume. Free wifi with posted password. A couple outlets. Numi bagged teas. They have London fogs on the menu, but barrista thought that only meant Earl Grey. Small breakfast menu - no protein except hummus. Tiny selection of kinda sad looking pie and muffins.

The Golden Roast has been a cornerstone of the campus and Knoxville community. When one becomes tired of the same old cup of Joe from Starbucks and Einstein's on campus, you can retire to the varietal and tasteful selection of coffees at The Golden Roast. Their pastries will also provide you a great afternoon snack as you hob nob with fellow academics or friends. Keep it up Golden Roast!
