Crema's Take
“Mug Shots Coffee brings a playful, locally-rooted energy to Hot Springs with a fun theme that celebrates the town's quirky history, paired with genuinely exceptional coffee that rivals any specialty roaster—they make their own syrups, and it shows in drinks like their standout pumpkin spice pecan latte. The Chesswood Plaza location offers the rare convenience of a drive-thru without sacrificing quality, making it easy to grab an expertly-crafted cappuccino or creative seasonal drink even when you're in a hurry, and with a 4.8-star rating from over 250 reviews, locals clearly agree it's worth seeking out.”

This coffee place is better than the competition (7Bs) hands down! I wish they had more central locations, and easier to get to though. There's one on Airport road in Chestwood Plaza, one truck near Malvern on hwy 270, and one inside CHI hospital (this one's not as good). There may be more but I haven't found them yet. My favorite is the Dark Chocolate Mocha hot or cold, it is amazing! Also ask for a punch card and earn free coffee!
Fun theme that references Hot Springs’ history. Bought a pumpkin spice pecan latte. It was way better than what you get at the major chains. They make their own syrups and you can taste the difference.
We checked the good reviews on google and decided to go. Although we had to take a detour of 10 miles but it was worth it. We ordered hot chocolates and cappuccino. I loved the cappuccino, I can say without hesitation that it was better than Starbucks.
In the area for the weekend so stopped Saturday morning. I ordered a hot cafe latte with vanilla and whip cream and a lemon poppy seed muffin. My husband ordered the electric chair with a additional shot and cinnamon rolls. Both our pastries were warmed up and delicious! The drinks were the perfect temperature to drink right away and tasted amazing. I do not like my drinks too milky or too strong but these were PERFECT. We were very sad that there was closed Sunday morning on our way out. We told our friends that came late to stop by on their way out Sunday, so I’m sure they were bummed also.
Great coffee shop with good flavors and an awesome staff! Some of the best coffee in Hot Springs, which is also unique because it offers a drive through option. Worth the visit, the shop is located at the end of the plaza on the hill wall side. Definitely worth the few extra minutes for a tasty fresh brew!
