Reviews for PennyCup Coffee Co. in Asheville, NC
Okay so I firstly have to say the bagels here are to absolutely die for. Like, so freaking good. I always get the hummus bagel.... Huge portions. Coffee is also delicious. I love the SF vanilla. They also have apparel and I like to support local so Ipurchased a few sweatshirts! (Yellow glare is from a portable light due to not having power because of tropical storm Ian!) ???? Read more
Best honey latte and it was decaf. It smelled so nice being surrounded by freshly roasted coffee beans. People were very nice.
Mmm I could smell the roast from the moment I got out of my car to go inside. The staff is very welcoming and friendly.... Clementine made us two perfect lattes and even took time to recommend local spots that our family would enjoy visiting. As longas I?m in the area I?ll be going back. Read more
Delicious! Had a hot hazelnut latte in the AM and an iced vanilla latte in the afternoon. The vanilla was incredible.
We stumbled across this small independent coffee shop while walking around the RAD district. Coffee was yummy, pastries were... delicious but the highlight was sitting in the shade on the bench outside and watching the world go by. The red brick makes anexcellent back drop for pictures. Read more
I ordered a chai tea latte and it was delicious. The staff were friendly enough and they have free wifi.\nI ended up working out... of here for a couple hours. Wouldn?t be my first choice as a place to study or work as there?s not many seats and the music wasreally loud. Instead, this seems like a great place to grab a drink and go, or to stay and socialize a little. Read more
This little gem is the perfect spot for your morning coffee, pastry, and great vibes. We got dirty chai lattes that were top... notch. It is important to note that every PennyCup location has its own menu. This spot has limited options.\n\nThey also have abit of merchandise. We bought two super cute, soft, well made sweaters. Check it out. Read more
I was headed to Bruegger?s, which I don?t like very much anyway, only to find they were closed so I asked Siri for a close bagel... shop and was directed to Penny Cup. I ordered a bagel & cream cheese with a coffee and couldn?t have been more satisfied. UnlikeBruegger?s, Penny Cup knows how to do a real NY schmear and while I suspect they don?t make their own bagels on site, theyprovided a properly made bagel, as fresh as you could want. Another difficult thing to find these days, thanks to places likeStarbucks, is coffee that isn?t sour and bitter tasting, needing half a cup of milk and many sugar packets to be drinkable.Barely. The coffee I had at Penny Cup was roasty, nutty and delicious before I even added milk or sugar. This makes 2 placesI?ve found in Asheville so far where I don?t wind up pouring 3/4 of the drink in the trash. To all of the pretentious ?coffeeshops? downtown, grab a cup from this place and see how coffee is supposed to taste. The interior was warm and quiet and had alounge-like feel, with several mismatched tables and chairs, pillows, cushions and stools. A lot of space but I think not a lotof seating overall. The music was audible in the background but not blaring, so no need to shout. I?d imagine there?s not awhole bunch of street traffic in this location, kind of hidden on the outskirts but then again not terribly far from the heartof downtown. Until next time? and there will definitely be a next time. Read more
