GOLA Coffee
1 University Pl, Bossier City, LA
Crema's Take
“GOLA Coffee is a volunteer-run gem in Bossier City where genuine hospitality and conversation are as much a part of the experience as the coffee itself—the staff may not all be trained baristas, but their warmth and effort shine through in every interaction. The atmosphere is genuinely cool and creative, with strong, quality coffee that satisfies even picky coffee drinkers, plus standout bubble tea and inventive drinks like the River Monster that go far beyond standard café fare. It's a spacious, welcoming spot perfect for lingering over work or study sessions, with an undeniable sense of community that makes you want to stay and chat rather than rush out.”

The people working there are volunteers, and are super nice. Not everyone is a barista, but they do their best. You'd have a much better experience if you strike up a conversation while waiting for your drink
One of the coolest atmospheres in Shreveport. The coffee grounds they use are strong like I prefer and I would say I’m picky with my coffee choices being from out of state. With the all the money going to missions for the volunteers, it’s easy to pay for the price. Also the late night hours open to 11 pm make it great for me studying for my classes. The people are super friendly and welcoming and create an atmosphere to keep coming back! Love GOLA!!
LOVE this place! Enjoyable atmosphere and excellent drinks. Great variety on the menu, and ample work space for study groups. Could not be more impressed.
My favorite is the river monster fro co with no coffee. It's better than Starbucks! I love the ministries here also
Best bubble tea in Shreveport!! Super friendly place to go for a coffee, ample amount of seating, huge space with some outside seating all year around. Great coffee with a wide selection of teas. Happy hour between 5-7 with half price drinks (bubble tea drinks are $2 during happy hour). This place is open until 11 pm Monday-Thursday, with student volunteers who are super friendly. I held back on a star because they don't have a lot to munch on, sometimes nothing at all.
