This place is a gem. Ignore the unassuming exterior. The coffee is excellent. Truly some of the best coffee I've had anywhere. The staff are warm and welcoming . The atmosphere is comfortable. There is a cozy den-like seating area with a plush loveseat and plush chairs, as well as, stylish tables and chairs if you prefer more traditional seating. There is also a handsome full-wall bookcase that gives the entire place a feeling of being in someone's home. I love this place. Please try this place. You definitely won't be disappointed. read more

This coffee shop is wonderfully quaint with a friendly staff, and has high quality coffee that was very delicious, and a good selection of pastries. The seating options are cozy too! Much better than stopping by a dunkin or Starbucks. read more

Wonderful place with helpful service. Delicious coffee that is strong and clean. When I crave coffee, this is the exact coffee I crave. I also enjoy the cool atmosphere. No pressure. Just drink coffee and hang out. Everyone feels comfortable and welcome here. read more

Definitely a gem in Tucker. I have seen this place many times before passing by while driving, but never really checked it out. They have a ScoutMob going on so that pushed my decision in going. INTERIOR: As you enter, the coffee joint is very spacious and has a homey vibe. Lots of places to sit and chill inside. A couples tables in the front of the store as well. To the left is a big bookshelf with books and items on sale such as mugs, tumblers, etc. To the right is where all the magic happens-- the bar. There's also a stand with sugar, creamer, napkins, and hand sanitizer. The blinds were open so that really lit up the place. Floors were clean as well as the tables inside. SERVICE: Exceptional customer service. I presume the gentleman/barista that assisted me is the owner of the place since it's a locally owned shop, which has been open for 10+ years. I did not know that! He was very helpful and nice. Even asked if I was staying or if it was to-go-- espresso came out in a clay-based mug and tuna sandwich plated. FOOD/COFFEE: The espressos here are made with Italian Lavazza coffee beans. Definitely a different and rich taste compared to other coffee shops/franchises. I ordered a Small Caramel Macchiato ($3.55) and a Tuna Sandwich ($4.65, but with the ScoutMob for $2.32). The sandwich was to die for. So good and plentiful for the regular price. The espresso I ordered was different from many others I have tried. It was perfect. Not overly sweetened like at other places. I highly recommend you check this place out. Not a bad coffee joint at all. Free Wi-Fi and plenty of places to chill. Hours are kind of weird. Open pretty early around 7 a.m. and closes by 1 p.m. or 2 p.m. Catch 'em if ya can! read more

Then of course the coffee, tastes better than it looks!Next time we are in town we will make sure this is our coffee go to! read more

Good espresso from quality machines pulled by good people. There certainly are comfy chairs here, too. The shop has a bit of an unfinished feel, but perhaps it's always changing. I'm sure I'll be back to re-visit thanks to CakeArt down the street. I look forward to trying more. Paramount's quality was a nice surprise. The heavy Christian aspect is a bit off-putting for me, but at least it isn't hard-core proselytizing. read more

My new favorite local coffee shop in Tucker. I've driven by this so many times and never stopped in... Took my daughter out on a date this morning and we loved it! Very peaceful, relaxed environment... Charming decor... And extremely friendly/accommodating staff (owner, I think). The coffee is rich and fresh. The owner brewed my daughter a small decaf just so she could try a sip. I had a cranberry orange scone which was delicious and also fresh, and my daughter had a blueberry muffin, which she enjoyed. Pricing is reasonable and and worth it. Plus, I like to give business to a local shop as opposed to a large chain. I will definitely come back here! read more

I've come for a business meeting before. I prefer to support local businesses instead of corporate behemoths. Paramount's coffee is great! A very nice woman greeted me upon arrival and made me feel welcome as she patiently awaited my order. She masterfully made a caramel macchiato with extra espresso shots and topped with cinnamon! I'm glad that I went out of my way for this special place! read more

It's a great place , nice people, the best coffee!! It's very clean and atmosphere is very cozy!!

Small coffee shop tucked away near Lawrenceville Hwy. It located in a small shopping strip next to a karate studio. There are outdoor and indoor seating. Free and strong WiFi. The ambiance is ok. Mostly is the couches in individual tables. Bookshelves covering the walls. Food is limited. Mostly bagels and muffins in the morning in specialty sandwiches like tuna sandwich chicken salad sandwich turkey sandwich during lunch time. Pricing for the bagels and muffins varies from 2-3 dollars . Sandwiches up to five dollars. Coffee here is solid. Offering from cappuccinos. expressos , iced coffee, regular coffee and macchiatos. Pricing various from 2.50 to 4.00. I have had the expresso (double shot of course) and cappuccino. Service was pretty good. They usually one owner who serve and make the drinks. Hours are wird. They are open 7am to 2pm. Monday through Saturday. Over all great little coffee shop. read more

I love the Iced Coffee ($2.45) here; it's pretty strong and is so delicious! They also recently extended their hours so that they are open Tuesday-Thursday from 7AM-6PM, Friday & Saturday 7AM-9PM, and Sunday 3PM-9PM. Paramount is a quiet and chill place to do work. I definitely think this is the best coffee shop in the area to go do work at. They always have seats available and they have plugs throughout the place. The only downside is that they are lacking in larger tables. read more

If you're looking for serenity and an excellent cappuccino in the vicinity of Tucker, look no further! This business is operated by a lovely Ethiopian couple (and yes, for those of you who don't already know it, Ethiopians KNOW coffee) whose very demeanor suggests peace. The shop is set in a nondescript strip of businesses just off of Lawrenceville Highway and Main Street in Tucker. (Main Street becomes Idlewood as you cross Lawrenceville Higway.) Easy access and easy parking make it a plus. Upon entering you will no doubt be struck by the utter stillness of the place. Comfortable plush chairs and sofas, a couple of nice little nooks for an even quieter study spot and nicely chosen art on the walls make this place a terrific stop for a break during the day. Please note the unusual hours, however. Closed after 2 PM on weekdays, after 1 on Saturday, and altogether closed on Sunday. read more

Good coffee. Very nice owner. Comfy couches. Good music. Free wifi. The area around the coffee shop isn't the best... And there is definitely a Christian theme in some of the decor. But, that being said, if you're ok with that - it's a great spot to get some work done! Ample parking and a nice small local business. read more

My salon (Salonography) is a few doors down from Paramount which is great because I can send my clients for great coffee and sandwich's while they enjoy their hair services. If I weren't they're neighbor, I would continue to patronize their business because they are truly special people that deliver great customer service and an awesome product. The turkey sandwich is amazing but everyone raves about the Tuna...I haven't tried it yet because something about ordering tuna or fish products from a coffee shop scares me...but I trust them..lol If you happen to be in Tucker and want a coffee house experience more unique than a local Starbucks (nothing against Starbucks) try them out, you wont be disappointed...unless their closed. read more

Stopped by at 7:30 on a Saturday to enjoy this cute place after reading all the amazing reviews. Sign said open, hours stated Monday-sat 7-3pm, however door was locked and lights were off. I hope I can come back and re-write this review soon because it absolutely breaks my heart! I hope everyone is okay and whoever was supposed to open isn't ill. However, it did lose me as a customer for today and I want to make sure that if it was a mistake it can get fixed for the future! read more

First visit this Friday morning shortly before 9am... I was one of two to-go customers at this time of day. The White Mocha I ordered was AWESOME! I slowed down my consumption rate just to savor it as long as I possibly could! I did not want the experience to end ;) There is ample seating with lots of options, whether you want a nook to chat with a friend, a corner for solo sipping, or more group-friendly couches with side chairs for larger setting. It is a warm and friendly, neighborhood coffeehouse vibe. Thumbs Up! I would much prefer to linger here, rather than the Starbucks experience around the corner as both the product and atmosphere surpass the expected norm. Next time I will try some of their food options. Happy to find, and happy to recommend! read more

Possibly one of the best Iced Lattes I have had in a while! It was the perfect amount of sweetness and coffee! I am as done with half of it before I even left the parking lot. read more

Weird place. The coffee is fine, not great but I was just in Seattle. The shop itself is fine but full of religious texts. I felt like they could have been more upfront about that in their title or shop advertising. No sugar alternatives except for Splenda which they were nearly out of. Also, weirdly, their cardboard hand/heat sleeves advertise for cat food. Nice people though. read more

I found this coffee shop through Scoutmob. The manager/owner was EXTREMELY nice and welcoming. It was about 9:30am on a Saturday morning, but there was only one other person in the coffee shop. I just tried a regular coffee, and it was great. My only complaint would be the selection of breakfast items. It was very limited. Overall, I might come here again as a nice, quiet alternative to Starbucks or busier coffee shops. read more

This is a great alternative to Starbucks and better. I always have problems with these independent coffee shops because they just can't keep up their good service, and the quality of their coffee. Either the people behind the counter think they're too cool to treat this like an actual job, or the coffee just sucks. This place doesn't disappoint though and I've come here on many trips paying attention to things and yeah it's always been a good experience. I also don't get that annoying too cool feel from the baristas, they know they're there to work and be friendly. Im not asking for much you know? read more

Didn't really like this place but coffee is okay. In my personal preference the place for me looks very old and I wasn't feeling the smell. The coffee shop is big and I wasn't feeling the lighting as well it's too dim for me. And the cups I felt like I bought coffee from Publix. Sorry :( read more

Quiet place! Good for studying although the lighting is a little dim! The owners are super nice and try their best to please you! I got a chai latte, the wife rang me up. I asked her to make it less sweet with very hot steamed milk.. Somehow the husband knew all that and made it the exact way I wanted wo me having to tell him again! Yummy! I'd def come back for the service!!! read more

I'm astonished this place even exists. It's the most peaceful, quiet, study mood inducing coffee shop I've ever found, and trust me I've tried LOTS of them all over the metro area. Coffee drinks are solid, and there are great, unique areas all over the unusually large floorspace. read more

I've tried to give this "gem", as people call it, some business but they do not open till 10am and closed on Mondays. Sigh. Looks like they have posted consistent hours now at least. Previously it was different depending on the day. The days I try to visit. Just missed them. read more

I have been going to Paramount for 7 years and their service and warm atmosphere never disappoints. It has the ambiance of an old European coffee house and their coffees are of the highest quality. Every Monday my friends and I gather for Bible study and on other days I meet with clients and friends to hang out. It is the perfect place to study and....THERE IS AMPLE SEATING!!!! Try there machiattos and their chocolate drink which is really delicious. They also prepare a tuna sandwich that is heavenly and they offer cage-free eggs, bagels, and yogurt parfaits for breakfast. I am looking forward to catering with them and enjoying community events in the near future!!! read more

Love this place!! The owner Sinna is very friendly and the coffee is great. I would highly recommend Paramount if you are in need of a quick pick me up. read more

Discovered this little jewel yesterday & it will become one of my "places to go" Loved everything about it. Pleasant employee (maybe the owner) made you feel welcome. Wnt with a friend after lunch at Matthews an ]d we were able to sit & have a conversation in a lovely, quiet place. This will definitely be on my "go to" list. read more

Friendly management and vibe. Free wi-fi, variety of seating options. I telecommute from here often.

As everyone said, they got a weird hours. Monday through sat, it is 10 am to 6 pm. Sunday closes. That's not normal for a coffee cafe!

I visited Paramount Coffee for the first time today... And I must say the ambience was pleasing, the (house) brew was great, and the owner was friendly and engaging. I went for a meeting/social gathering and was extremely pleased. I will be going back! P.S. It's great to have a local coffee house near the Stone Mountain/Tucker area... read more
