I ordered the French Vietnamese coffee and it was incredible. The flavor was rich, smooth, and had just the right touch of sweetness. Easily one of the best coffee drinks I've had in a while! What truly made the experience unforgettable was the service. Kayla and Karissa worked together effortlessly. One prepared the coffee with care and attention, while the other added a handwritten message on the cup in the most beautiful handwriting I have ever seen. That personal touch made my day. Between the quality of the coffee and the kindness of the staff, this place is a gem. read more

Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

This is a cute coffee shop with lots of tasty treats. Staff is usually super friendly and it's always clean and quick.

Sweetwater offers hot or cold beverages plus several bakery and quick meal offerings. I like the great use of space from a "quiet" area in the back good for reading or sitting comfortably - to a community table near the front. I past several drink areas to visit this space and it is worth each time. I do like low to no sugar offerings and their teas hit the spot. The team is very friendly and when I get the chance I try to say "Hi" to Ash - the owner - when I come through. read more

Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea - Hot Coffee with Cold water - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

We stopped in for a quick coffee on hour 3 of a roadtrip and loved this place! It has the professional, well-designed feel of a big chain while the staff and artwork/layout make it feel homey and local. There was a good amount of patrons for a Monday afternoon, and music was a good level for carrying on conversation or working. The girls behind the counter were so sweet and patient, explaining the many drink options. My husband got a drip coffee and I got the caramel crème (I think?) latte. Both were delicious and so much better than Starbucks or Summer Moon. I also loved the adorable writing on our lids! read more

Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea - Asiago Bagel Sandwich - Egg & Cheese, Dreamy - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

Coffee here is good and there's ample space with lots of tables and good lighting. They have some board games on the side and a chess board. I haven't tried any of the bakery items but they offer quite a few if you're itching for a snack. I've gone here a couple of times to get work done and it's a great cafe to do that. Highly recommend! read more

Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

Woah talk about a great establishment this place is almost as good as a fine dining restaurant. I would move to McKinney for this place I swear. Let me tell you the Mango tea I got was so freaking good I ordered another to take with me on the road. My daughter loved the croissant it came hot and we didn't even have to ask omg such good service. Man I love the family atmosphere we hung out there saw all the families doing the same. read more

Went to this location to enjoy a coffee and snack for the afternoon. Another Patron came in with a large dog. The girl behind the counter said we don't allow dogs inside. The customer said it was a Service Dog, even though there was no markings or tags as a Service dog. The girl with the dog said when she receives her order she will leave and came to set right next to me. I do not have a problem with dogs, however, they should not be allowed somewhere where food and drinks are served. Oh, and to top it off the dog put their front legs on the counter. Service dogs do not do that!!! read more

I enjoy my visits at every Sweetwaters location, the company just has this consistent vibe of pleasantness. And neatness! Also coolness! The cool glass display cases at Sweetwaters are best in the industry, you want to order 1 of every item displayed, they all look so delicious! So I'm at the display like Forrest Gump, just amazed at it all and staff greets me LOL I needed a icy thirstbuster to celebrate triple digits days returning to Texas. Yay! Staff offfered suggestions, and I said "You had me at Ginger Fizz!" This was perfectly light, but flavorful, and bubbly. So, I just missed the featured artist here, giving pro bono art tips to a crowd at the laptop table. Each month, this location features art works on the walls. Inquire with staff how to display you art here for free. read more

This place is terrible in service. I came in to order my drink and the cashier wasn't being friendly. I ask what size your drinks come in and she say it is up there. I say what is up there. Very rude and didn't seem professional. Where is the manager? He or she needs to evaluate the staff customer service skills. Manager needs to retrain the staff that work on 12/22/2024 at 2:35 pm shift. read more

Really great place. Tasty pastries. Delicious coffee. Friendly people. Would highly recommend.

By far the best coffee and amazing customer service! Everyone knows your name and it makes for a nice hangout.

I had a business meeting here with a friend that referred this place. I have only been to this coffee shop once and then another time I drove past another location with my son and picked up a smoothie. The coffee I had was amazing. Only 4 star bc my son's smoothie was OK and over priced for a fruit smoothie with no protein. For a loc coffee shop this will still be my second favorite. Summermoon Coffee still beats this place for me. read more

Move over Starbucks, you've been outdone! Sweetwaters coffee and tea had a fantastic selection of pastries, coffees and teas! Our drinks were delicious, the service was fast and friendly and the facility was stylish with ample seating. You are a step above Starbucks!

During COVID-19 I appreciate that they have signs for social distancing and keep this place clean. When I walked in there the coffeeshop was empty so social distance wasn't an issue. Sweetwaters has plenty of light, spacious and has a aesthetic modern outlook. The entrance of Sweetwaters has a display of local paintings for sale. They have a small display case of goodies and an extensive menu of drinks. I opted for the slice of blueberry oat cake and a chai tea. The blueberry oat cake was dense, delicious while not being overly sugary. Their chai tea is packed with flavor and delicious. The prices are reasonable. The barista was friendly and made my drink fast. I definitely recommend Sweetwaters and will be returning. read more

So happy to have sweetwater up here! I'm Familiar with the one in Richardson. Friendly staff and spot on drinks and (dragon Ice) and delicious savory pastries. The space isn't as big as the Richardson location and I only wish there was a couch area. Other than that, there is really no other coffeeshop like it in this area. I'm glad there is a bright and Instagram worthy, inspiring place to do some work. Bravo. read more

While meeting Work colleagues in Texas, we picked this place due to location. It is a hip, spacious coffeehouse. We sampled many desserts, including chocolate ganache cake, cookies and macarons . I ordered the matcha ice dragon with whipped cream. It was all wonderful, but pricey. The staff was very kind and efficient, even taking pics of us. If you enjoy unique, varied coffee and teas, check it out. read more

Love this place. There's a lot of menu options and so many ways to customize. Lots of seating and the decor is really nice. The music was calm and not too loud, which is perfect for chatting or homework. The croissants are delicious and I would recommend the lavender honey oat milk latte!! Also a huge huge highlight is that there are outlets everywhere & they are open late! read more

I placed my mobile order before getting to the McKinney location. I stood by the mobile pickup sign for 20mins before even being acknowledged. I saw at least 3 guest who came after me (ordered at counter) get their orders immediately. Two other guests who had mobile orders were acknowledged as soon as they walked in and stood by me!!! It wasn't until the worker saw how pissed I was that he asked me who the mobile order was for. I'm so upset with this place. I was trying to support a local coffee shop, but this is ridiculous. A hi, welcome, who's the order for or something would've been better than me standing there and the workers looking me dead in my eyes or just ignoring me. I guess if you're a person of color they don't see you. read more

I love local places that serve tea. The drinks here, in particular, seem a little more interesting than your average cafe. TEA: Of their tea drinks, I've tried: 2 arnold palmers (rooibos and green tea), thai tea, and imperial milk tea. I have to say the rooibos is probably my favorite and the imperial milk tea was the most disappointing. The imperial milk tea is supposed to be "Hong-Kong inspired" but let me tell you... Not only did it not taste like anything close to Hong Kong milk tea, it actually doesn't taste much like anything at all. I suppose there's a hint of something floral but that was about it. COFFEE: I don't drink coffee, but my husband does. He's Vietnamese and enjoys the French Vietnamese Cafe au lait although he claims it's not as strong as true Vietnamese coffee. Nevertheless, it's still good. DESSERT: We both love the red velvet cake soo much that we spent $90 to buy the whole cake for our friend's birthday. Each slice was nice and thicc. Or you can just buy a single slice for $7.95 I believe. Either way, you have to try it if you love red velvet with cream cheese frosting. STAFF: Always friendly, helpful, and courteous. No complaints except maybe some of them know how to make drinks better than others lol read more

I found Sweetwaters when getting a gift card for a friend who lives up that way. I was so taken by all the natural light, yummy drink options, tasty food options and great seating options. When I got the chance to meet said friend for coffee last week I was thrilled we both chose Sweetwaters. The employees are kind, helpful and made great suggestions. My almond milk latte + blackberry syrup was delightful, as was the banana bread I got. I would definitely recommend Sweetwaters and will be back soon! read more

Nice little chain of coffee and tea drinks with a wide selection of options, opt to come here over that "other large chain" if you're looking for quick service and great coffee drinks! Really appreciated that they have a variety of drinks that include condensed milk and was also pleasantly surprised to see their brownies are made with sustainable sourcing from my home country! Use your check in to get a drink :) read more

I came here to get a cappuccino. I cannot fault the service, as the manager and barista remade my coffee as the 12 oz double was all milk. After remaking it and telling me it was only coffee and foam, I just left it with them as it was identical to the first attempt. Super disappointing. They obviously have never had a cup of the way it's supposed to be made and just assume that this is how people like it. If you prefer the flavor of espresso, you will be disappointed but If you prefer hot milk, he will be in heaven. I am giving them an extra star just due to the friendly service. read more

Don't pass this coffee shop by! You'll be glad you've not gone to Starb#%* because Sweetwaters has an amazing menu of inventive and creative coffee and tea drinks. I treated myself to the Ethiopian coffee with sweetened condensed milk- Lord it was divine. So much so, that now I crave it. There is a small hand-written menu board that is filled with creations of the baristas but even better than that, there was a sampling press pot filled with an iced delicate chai with lychee syrup (if my memory serves me right) and it was divine. Sampling a new creation is a smart way to get people out of their rut. While enjoying my iced coffee, the owner greeted my mother and I and was super nice. Our barista was super nice and took the time to walk us through it all, as it was our first time there. Now I await the opening of the location in Allen! read more

This is my new favorite place to get coffee! The oat milk lattes are delicious and my go to. The prices are pretty good compared to many shops around here. I first went to the location in Plano and loved it but didn't realize there was one in McKinney. I was so happy when I found out! The customer service, taste and cleanliness is consistent across multiple locations and the shop is big and spacious with lots of seating for studying or working. Highly recommend!! read more

We love this place. Lately, I've been going 3-4x a week and this is our spot on the weekends to chill and get work done on the laptops. I always get the cold brew dreamy. The coffee here doesn't taste like genocide, so that's always a plus. Oh, and the chocolate chip cookies are better than crumble cookies and like 1/2 the price. The owner is very involved at this location so you are certain to have an amazing experience every time you visit. read more
