What a wonderful experience walking into Pike House Coffee. It's a vibe, from the customer service to the ambiance and decorations. We are driving through the city and needed a place to work at and get some coffee. I told my husband I wouldn't mind moving here just to come to this coffee shop. Truly a hidden gem. I am leaving a review in the hopes to return again the future. I had a white chocolate latte with 1/2 the sweetness and my husband had the nondairy vanilla latte. Both tasted spectacular 10/10. Thank you to our wonderful barista, he deserves to find a forgotten lottery ticket and retire on a hidden treasure island somewhere. ;)
Atmosphere is Edgar Allen Poe themed. Victorian, morose, filled with curiosities. Multiple business with a common area for lounging. Our barista was on theme and dressed to impress this morning. Parking: Entrance to parking is a bit odd, so be on the look out if it's your first time here. Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp into the front of the building. Ramp is a little skinny but sufficient.
Coffee is so good and the chocolate muffin is perfect too. Love the lounging area. It is perfect.
Always consistent, always quick service, and really good coffee.
I've been coming here for close to three years now. They always have such incredible monthly drink flavors that keep me coming back again and again, and they've worked really hard to make their shop a welcoming environment anyone who comes in. They are always finding new things to decorate their lounging/chatting/study spaces, and it has such a cozy dark academic vibe. My friends and I always come here to do our homework and hang out. My friends and I keep coming back because of how friendly the owners are. They know us by name, and always make sure that we like our drinks. I have always felt comfortable asking them to remake something if it wasn't quite right, and they have always done their best to make sure that everything tastes right. Smitty and Felicity have always made me feel accepted while I've been in their shop. I'm always comfortable around them and they always ask about how I've been, how classes are going, and what kinds of things are going on on campus. I really enjoy getting to see them and check in when they're working--we've chatted about a Poe inspired Netflix series before! I love their Lotus energy drinks--they always make such wonderful flavors that I'm excited to try every month. I also really enjoy their coffee--it always tastes good and they make sure that it's ethically sourced and sustainable. They only buy from suppliers that protect native bird habitats. I never knew that coffee farming could hurt bird habitats, and I'm happy that my favorite coffee shop doesn't support that kind of coffee farming. I'm a student, so I spend a lot of time here doing homework. Whenever I go home for the holidays, Pike House is one of the things I miss the most about Johnson City. I've never found another coffee shop (either local or chain) that does it like they do.
Best Boba I've ever had! Love the employees as they were very accommodating. Kid-friendliness: My daughter is autistic and we stopped in here for just a few minutes to grab a Boba tea and a muffin and they were so friendly with my daughter and allowed her to explore their shop and she didn't even want to leave.
I love this place, the owner and all the baristas are so nice and their drinks are creative and delicious. Try the lotus energy drink monthly specials! The shop itself is really fun too, it’s decorated with Edgar Allan Poe and other literature themes. Support this local business!
