The Coffee Connection — Restaurant in Knoxville

I had a really bad experience here. There were these two old men sitting at a table across from mine and they were staring at me and my friends and wouldn’t stop. I moved a little then he moved so he could see me, made a creepy smile, told me he was part of the “secret eye” and that he was gonna report me. I had a panic attack and had to go outside, they came out a little after i did and just sat there and stared at me again. I went right back in and we had told the employees there before they left and they did absolutely nothing about it. They acted like they didn’t know where their car was and walked away. They were walking around the farmers market kept coming back over by coffee connection and looking at me and my friends. They got in their truck, parked at H&R Block and walked around the farmers market some more. They eventually left but i still felt super creeped out and shaky. I also ordered a bagel and it took them 35 minutes to get it out to me. I will definitely not be...

Good coffe lattes smoothies and a nice selection of food at very reasonable prices. A friendly Christian coffee shop small town atmosphere family owned and excellent customer service. The picture with food is a full order of loaded hash browns extra crispy and it iso not 5.75 for a full order. You can get breakfast and a coffe plus leave a 15 percent tip for roughly 12$ depending on your order… that is what my bill usually is around. They take pride in the quality of their products friendly customer service, small town environment where you may run into someone you know… also great environment to do some writing in a notebook or on a laptop for school or journaling or business or what have you. They also have a cool variety of products for sale that correlate with their business and they are high quality and reasonably priced. My friend Sara works here and it is always a pleasure to stop in. You won’t be...

I haven't been to the Knoxville square in years so this was my first visit. I was impressed by the menu with its wide selection of both food and drink. I also appreciated that it was clean. For a relatively small town, this was a busy place at 10 am on a Tuesday. There was a line (using social distancing, thank you) but it moved very quickly. I ordered a chai latte that was great. Kids has a smoothie and orange juice. They also ordered a bagel and toast. Service was quick and everything came out hot. Only one minor negative; it was really loud. I had a hard time and hearing our conversation with friends. Linoleum floors+ espresso machines+ full tables of senior citizens having a good time in full voice = noise. But I enjoyed the bustle of a small town coffee shop too. We wont hesitate to...
