    After a long day on the road I was hoping for a soul soothing chops. And here was Jittery Joe's!! Love the atmosphere- great location easy to get in and out and a drive thru!! I got a Yin Yang Mocha!! Sooooo good. Great gift shop area. May have bought a mug! Super friendly staff. Definitely a go to if you are in the area.

    Love this shop. Small town feel with great coffee. I met the manager who was absolutely awesome and we talked shop. Needs a better pastry selection but coffee is good. Hopefully if you are reading this you realize Starbucks coffee is over roasted crap. If so, you will love this place.

    Best coffee shop in the SOUTH

    Leaving Athens to get to a work meeting in Thomasville Georgia. I was already running short on time but I decided to order 2 bagels with cream cheese and some coffee. Not only were they low on products but I open the bag and there are no napkins. That was only the beginning because my bagels didn't even have cream cheese on them. I don't like to waste food so I ate the bare bagels. Worst $19 that I have ever spent. At least they toasted it for me. If you do drive through, make sure to check your order before leaving.

    I bought two drinks and a snack.  Why does this offend me?  Why does this place think it's different than another restrnt/bar?

    I love Jittery Joes other locations and I was excited to try this one near my sons swim lesson. Unfortunately, employees need more training. Parking was nill. And, while I appreciate that this business needs to keep people moving, as does every other restaurant/coffee shop, there are disturbing signs posted on all tables labeled "please read" see picture. As an F&B manager I find this kinda wierd and a turn off (I purchase two drinks and a snack). Really? A notice on every table? Lastly, punch cards for this location are different than any of the others. Well, they look exactly the same but they won't punch yours if it is from another jittery joes. I didn't get an explanation so maybe this is a different owner? One that needs more experience in the industry perhaps? Not impressed.

    Combine the coolest baristas with best coffee and you have this Jittery Joes.

    Pricy but great coffee (shop local!). Speedy service with attentive staff. Nice atmosphere, minus the parking lot. I love this JJ!

    Fantastic location and delicious coffee. The baristas helped me choose the right brew, and I even…read moremet a local artist who shared wonderful stories about Athens. A truly relaxing and memorable stop.

    Stopped into Molly's Coffee Co this morning for some caffeinated goodies. This joint comes highly…read morerecommend by my father in law. There might be a little bias options here since this joint is owned by his really good friend's granddaughter. But the fact it's local, I'm going to support it. Walking up, the espresso machine and register was set up outside. There's some remodeling going on so I didn't get the opportunity to see what the venue looks like inside. But outside is quite cute. I love the flowers surrounding the outside patio. A handful of sweet baristas were working. They all greeted us! I checked out the summer menu to see what kind of cool drinks they had. I got a vanilla oat milk matcha latte. My husband got a summer drink of the menu. It was a sparkling strawberry lemonade. My husband's lemonade was so good! I appreciate that real strawberry puree was used. It was sweet, tangy and bubbly! It was quite refreshing for a sweet drink. My matcha was balanced! There was a good amount of matcha to oat milk. I didn't quite taste the vanilla as much as I would have liked to. I did add some sugar to it when we stopped at the Waffle House. It tasted much better once the sugar was added. I'm already going to plan on coming back when we visit Athens again next year. I look forward to seeing the new remodel. And I look forward to potentially meeting the famous Molly that my father in law speaks ok. I enjoyed my matcha and it's great that I got to support a local joint while I was here.
