Barnes & Noble Café
1430 Plaza Pl, Grapevine, TX
Crema's Take
“This Barnes & Noble café runs the Starbucks playbook competently but not creatively—you'll get solid pastries and quick service in a genuinely spacious, well-maintained setting that's perfect for camping out with a laptop, but don't expect anything beyond standard espresso drinks. It's the bookstore itself that justifies the visit, especially if you're browsing for a while and want reliable coffee and pastries without the indie café pretension. Best for: meeting a friend, working for an hour or two, or grabbing a cookie before diving into the stacks.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A laptop-friendly, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly. Wifi.

Visited 12.23.25 and asked for white chocolate cappuccino with Carmel sauce. What I was given was strong coffee, 1/2 cup only, with milk foam on top to include a drizzle for Carmel sauce. Worse cappuccino I've had from a Starbucks.
I just ask for light ice .. and Since when does Starbucks charge extra for adding lemonade to a strawberry acai?

There service was quick and very friendly. I got a chocolate chip and the wife got the sugar cookie. I didn't get the pic of mine because i devoured it lol. It was soft and delish. The sugar cookie was good as well
