Awaken Coffee
125 W Jackson Ave, Knoxville, TN
Crema's Take
“Tucked in Knoxville's Old City, this spacious coffee shop stands out for its genuinely welcoming atmosphere and impressive seating capacity, making it equally suited for solo work sessions or lingering with friends. Their espresso-focused menu shines with seasonal specialty drinks, and the beautifully decorated space even features a stage venue in the back, giving the spot an unexpectedly vibrant character that goes beyond your typical coffee shop experience. The knowledgeable, attentive staff and reasonable pricing round out what locals have embraced as a reliable gathering place.”
What to expect
