Java Cabana, Cooper-Young's Coffeehouse
2170 Young Ave, Memphis, TN
Crema's Take
“This Cooper-Young neighborhood fixture masterfully blends nostalgia with creative energy, serving silky espresso drinks like their signature monkey latte alongside thoughtful pastries and light bites in a warmly vintage space that draws everyone from cyclists to families. The vibe here is genuinely laid-back and welcoming—patrons and staff alike create that rare coffee shop atmosphere where you actually want to linger, whether you're stopping by for a perfectly steamed cappuccino or settling in with avocado toast and a view. It's the kind of place that feels like a local secret but generous enough to make every visitor feel like they've been coming for years.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Open late. Family friendly.

Stopped in this morning for a monkey latte and a loaded avocado toast! Both amazing! Love the aesthetics of this place! We will definitely be back! Keep on groovin! 😊
