Tucked into the mountains of West Virginia in the small ski town of Thomas, TipTop Coffee feels like the kind of place you hope to stumble upon while wandering Appalachian back roads. The town itself has that perfect mountain-arts vibe--historic brick buildings, quiet streets, and a steady flow of hikers, skiers, and road-trippers--and TipTop fits right into that rhythm. The shop is cozy and unpretentious, the kind of café where the warmth from the espresso machine and the conversations around the room cut through the mountain chill. It feels local in the best way--welcoming without trying too hard. But the real highlight is the coffee. The cup I had was excellent: clean, balanced, and clearly prepared by people who care about the craft. It had the kind of clarity and sweetness that stands out, especially when you're used to road-trip coffee stops that are just "good enough." This was genuinely memorable. If you're passing through the Canaan Valley / Blackwater Falls area or chasing powder at Timberline or Canaan Valley Resort, TipTop Coffee is absolutely worth the stop. It's proof that even in a small Appalachian ski town, you can still find a cup that would hold its own in much bigger coffee cities. A mountain gem. read more

The coffee was absolutely amazing! I loved it! My son bought some coffee beans to go and helped him brew some great espresso at home!

A Thomas staple! If you're driving through the area, you're likely stopping. If it's not for the coffee, it's for a treat. They have a wonderful selection of baked goods. I especially love their coolers and shelves of NA options. My husband and I always make a point to stop in even if we are staying in Davis. We frequent the area and usually take turns staying in both small towns. They offer a lovely space, easy in and out or sit and stay a while! It's a must check out!! read more

Delicious, chill, and kind baristas! Couldn't ask for more! My boyfriend and I stopped in here while traveling through and had a delicious oat milk latte and a frittata- and got a salted chocolate chip cookie before leaving (honestly the chocolate chip cookie sealed the deal for me!) Must stop !! read more

TipTop - Cortado - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Thomas, West Virginia

I got an oat milk latte and a lemon bar at TipTop in Thomas, WV. The positives: the latte was delicious, and the lemon bar was very good. The inside of the coffee shop is very cute and tidy. They have a bunch of trendy drinks like Oli-pop and kombuchas. This shop was open on a Monday, which apparently is rare in Thomas. Everything else on the strip was closed. The negatives: the food and drinks are overpriced. This is common for most trendy coffee shops, so this is not surprising but still a little annoying. read more

This spot was very good! The coffee was excellent, and the spinach and feta pastry was tasty. They also have a nice selection of art and gifts for purchase, which adds to the charm. It was busy when we visited, but the line moved quickly. There is seating available inside, although we grabbed our order to go. read more

This place is A+ and the new location (as of fall 2022), right down the street from the previous location, is absolutely stunning. Perfectly created coffee drinks, a wildly long list of local beer, oat milk drinks bottled in house, pastries, gluten free options, sandwiches from Fish Hawk Acres, chocolate, local meats, and so much more. The seating area inside is cozy, the art is lovely and vibrant, and the merch for sale would allll make an amazing gift. And be sure you check out the mushroom bathroom... Check out this gem. I would give it 10 stars if I could. read more

Made it in just before they closed. Lucky me, a jewel found. Emmitt was at the register. She was super friendly and cool. Told me I couldn't bring my furry BFF in. Totally understand the restrictions. Asked Emmitt and she informed the baked goods are all made in house... The hard part was to figure out what to order. It's harder still, when it's only me and my puppy (and she doesn't get to eat baked goods for humans). Settled on Raspberry almond shortbread, Peanut butter chocolate chip cookie and a House coffee. Shortbread was delicate raspberry almond buttery goodness. I could taste the raspberries and the almonds were a very nice subtle undertone. The shortbread almost melted in my mouth, with the black coffee as a nice counterbalance to its buttery richness. The house coffee was good. Not as strong as I prefer, but well suited for the baked goods and strong enough to power me through the rest of my long drive. read more

What a fun find! I was recently in Thomas for work and wish I'd found this place sooner. Their Mexican chocolate latte is up there with the best I've ever had. They have the COOLEST selection of kombucha, sparkling water, fermented drinks, and NA cocktails. Check out the fridge selection! They also have charcuterie selections for a homemade picnic basket situation and some serious snacks. The wall of chocolate, the excellent wine selection - the whole space is well-curated. Fairly quick service, friendly faces, and a decent selection of baked goods. Tip Top is a must-stop! read more

From the moment you walk in until the last sip from your cup of coffee, the one thing that will stick out the most is just how clean everything is. The shop itself is clean. The bathroom is clean. The employees, clean. The kitchen, yep, it's clean. The coffee, just smooth and clean. This is one of the nicest coffee shops I've stepped in. And of all places in the heart of little Thomas, WV. They have a great selection of cold refrigerated beers, the absolute best pastries I've found. Seriously. Better than grandma's. The coffee and lattes are amazing. I'm just upset this isn't closer to home. We visited three times during our long weekend camping trip to Canaan. Can't wait to return. 10 stars. read more

Yes! This place has always been awesome and now it's even better. New building, great vibe and design and amazing food and coffee. Definitely worth a stop, always open which is a huge plus in this town. Stop in for picnic supplies, beverages and all sorts of awesome sundries. Love it. read more

I've been here many times while traveling with family. They have really good coffee and a decent selection of baked goods. Taking a star off because they have one small bathroom with nowhere to change a baby. read more

Worst coffee shop experience. I asked for a hot chocolate that was less sweet. They made it super sweet. I asked for the drink to be remade and they said I would have to pay for it. I ordered another drink and they made that extra sweet too. No apologies were offered. They refunded my second drink. If I'm ever in the area, I'm never coming here again. I've traveled to over 30 states in the US and love visiting coffee shops. I've never had such an experience. Very disappointing! read more

Used to love Tiptop but it is so disappointing this summer: their music is too loud in their second room; didn't visit them as often as I would normally do - they refused to keep it lower. I know several people on vacation in the valley who stopped coming or tend to leave early because of the volume. The charming creative atmosphere in the cafe is spoiled read more

$3 for barely hot 10 oz coffee and then $2 for a refill?!? $50 for a Tip Top coffee mug!? I understand resort prices, having lived on the Western slope of CO, so marginally good overpriced coffee is also alive and well in WV. Thomas, WV is the Telluride of the East. read more

its a little pricey but I go here for my bottled red wine and sharkcooterie snacks such as amazing cheese and salami. love it

I briefly went to college in West Virginia, and Thomas was one of my favorite places to do a day trip to- Tip Top was always on that list too! Great coffee and a perfect atmosphere. read more

I was quite pleased with my caffeine fix at TipTop in Thomas. Prices here make my wallet weep, but at least the matcha tea and my sleep deprivation distracted me enough to make me forget about my piling debt.

TipTop - The person behind me basically bought the whole store. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Thomas, West Virginia

Cute, cute, cute!!! Adorable decor, good coffee and the pastries looked delicious although I fought the urge to partake in one. I ordered the chai latte and it was quite light and yummy with a nice froth on it. I say at the bar area and chatted with the barista/bartender and she was quite nice. I also purchased some whole bean coffee that they ground for me and it was delicious the next morning as I wrapped up a friends weekend in the mountains. I am a fan of this place and their products. Please note ***there were a fair amount of CBD products including chocolate. read more

What a lovely shop in Thomas! Nothing is open on Mondays and Tuesdays so this was a welcome surprise. We got a ham, egg, and cheese croissant and a spinach and feta pastry. Both were fantastic. Service with a smile! Also, the place is stocked with coffee, wine and other goodies. Can't miss! read more

This is one of the coolest coffee shops in Almost Heaven. I think each time I come here I love it a little bit more each time I come here and more. * The cappuccinos are super good * The kombucha on tap is super tasty * The beer selection is superb * The staff is super cool and a super friendly * The atmosphere is super chill I have not ate that many items they serve here but the vegan and vegetarian stuff that I have had is tip top ;) I hope to try one of those amazing vegan burgers I've heard so much about on burger night one night because the last time I was in town on that night it was jam packed and people were waiting for a seat and I had to be somewhere kind of important, kinda. My advice is to stop in if you're ever in one of the coolest towns in West Virginia and you'll thank me later. Stay up top, Tip Top! read more

TipTop - Vegetarian bagel and some delicious beer that the bartender recommended that tasted like fruit juice - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Thomas, West Virginia

Some of the best tasting coffee and special drinks I've had. They have singles of beer, unique chocolate, treats for the trails, and locally crafted mugs. You must visit this place. It's clean and full of very interested staff. They'll recommend a drink and some places to hike! read more

My husband and I recently took a trip to the mountains of West Virginia and knew that we had to try TipTop coffee! We're both grew up in WV and moved to Kentucky a few years ago, so we've heard amazing things about this coffee shop from people we know. We decided to stop by for coffee and a small snack, before spending the day hiking. My favorite drink to get at coffee shops is a caramel latte, so we got two of those and also a pastry for breakfast. This latte was phenomenal! For sure one of the best I've ever had. I got a maple pecan pastry and my husband got a chocolate croissant. Both were absolutely delicious! The barista was very friendly too. She was easy to chat with, and also gave us some great recommendations for trails to hike. Later that day (5ish PM) we were feeling hungry and had to drive about 30 minutes to a different destination to hike. We were passing by TipTop again, so we decided to swing by and grab their canned lattes. We got a oat milk pumpkin latte and vanilla oat milk latte. These were great and hit the spot! I look forward to our next hiking/camping trip and visiting TipTop again! 10/10 would recommend! read more

A cute little coffee place! We stopped at this place at the recommendation of our airbnb host. They have a nice little view outside. It's not a full breakfast place but they enough to satiate you. I got the Smoked salmon bagel and it was very tasty. The response time was pretty quick as well. I usually drink my coffee with soy milk. They didn't have soy milk, but they had almond and oat milk. A little something for soy milk lovers like me. read more

TipTop - Standard Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Thomas, West Virginia

This is an adorable shop on the main strip in Thomas, WV, a cute little railroad town we ran into after a weekend camping trip. The coffee was phenomenal! However, as an out of towner trying this coffee for the first time, I expected a bit more friendliness and welcoming demeanor from the staff. The girl who took my order seemed annoyed, impatient and mildly condescending toward me after asking what her recommendations or favorite coffee were so that I could try something new. I feel strongly that the attitude of the staff makes or breaks a place--it contributes so much to the environment overall. Maybe everyone was having a bad day, or maybe they hate their jobs? Either way, it's unpleasant to visit somewhere new, spend your money, and feel like a nuisance. 10/10 coffee, muffin, and bagel. 1/10, service could really improve. read more

My husband and I stopped here for breakfast prior to heading to Blackwater Falls. It was a 35 degree morning and we wanted something to warm us up before we went hiking. They were only letting 5 people in at a time due to Covid restrictions so we had to wait outside for about 5 minutes before entering. Once inside, I could see how this would be a cute place to come for breakfast or lunch! They had some merchandise, prepared meals and drinks in a cooler, and a table full of hard cider and wine. They had quite a few hot drink options, and a case full of pastries and baked goods. It looked like they had previously served breakfast but this was the option right now. I ended up with a Hot Tumeric Latte with a Yam Brownie. I wanted to try something different and both were so unique and quite tasty! My husband had a coffee and a toasted Asiago bagel with onion and chive cream cheese. The prices were reasonable for a cafe and the items they had to offer were different and unique. The baristas were very friendly and helpful when needing help to decide on what to order. The food and beverages were good and worth the stop. Until next time, Thomas! read more

Stopped in the town of Thomas, WV this morning. Needed a cup of good coffee. Found the "Tip Top" coffee shop. I'm glad I did. Nice latte. They use a medium or dark roast... I'm a light roast person, but it was good. Data connection in town is spotty. Definitely worth the stop. Oh, and there is a miniature free library (get a book - leave a book) right outside the front door. read more
