Coffee
These are our favorite places to have coffee! A few are a short drive away, but worth the trip.
Great coffee roasted in Elizabethton, and healthy, fresh lunch options. Breakfast is not great there, so we recommend only going for lunch.

Best coffee shop in the Tri-Cities. It is a bit of a drive, but it is worth it. Jonesborough is the oldest town in TN, and it is an awesome place to explore and visit.

Food Scene
Homecooked Thai food at it's best. The owner Wanta is very nice and serves large portions! This is a local favorite; call ahead, because she sells out fast!
