Filtered
218 E Louisiana St, McKinney, TX
Crema's Take
“Filtered's exceptional pour-over program—especially their signature Lumen—makes this McKinney spot a destination for anyone serious about single-origin coffee, backed by a thoughtfully curated bean selection from across the US and beyond. The espresso work here is equally impressive, with a chocolate-forward house blend pulled with real precision (they even serve sparkling water palate cleansers), and their specialty drinks like the earl grey lavender latte show real creativity beyond the usual menu. It's a genuine slow-coffee haven that feels spacious and welcoming despite its modest storefront, perfect for settling in or meeting someone who actually cares about what's in their cup.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.
