Sugar Browns
1500 Broadway St, Lubbock, TX
Crema's Take
“Sugar Browns is a Lubbock institution that takes its espresso seriously, with regulars raving about crisp, well-pulled shots that shine in drinks like cortados and lattes alike. The space strikes that rare balance between buzzy and contemplative—packed with friendly, consistent staff who keep things moving even during morning rushes, making it equally suited for solo laptop work or lingering conversations with friends. Beyond the coffee, there's a cozy, well-designed atmosphere and a solid lineup of pastries like their pumpkin chocolate chip bread that give you reason to linger a little longer.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

My wife and I came here for some coffee around 9:45 on 11/18. There was a line of 3 people ahead of us, but we only waited about 5-6 minutes to order. We had never been here, but the staff were warm and welcoming and kindly answered all of our questions. My wife got the sugar…
