About This Place

Nestled quietly on the scenic Kenesaw Avenue in Knoxville, Treetop Coffee Shop is a genuine gem for coffee lovers seeking a peaceful retreat paired with expertly crafted beverages. This intimate coffee haven stands out with its dedication to quality and simplicity, steering clear of the artificial flavors and overwhelming sweetness that dominate many mainstream chains. Instead, Treetop Coffee embraces artisanal coffee culture, offering a curated menu that features unique and enticing choices like the velvety Fig and Cardamom Latte, the sweetly spiced Chai Latte, and the refreshing Iced Brown Sugar Latte. For those who prefer something classic yet perfectly executed, the Americano and Cortado deliver bold, rich coffee notes that satisfy true aficionados.

What sets Treetop apart is not just its menu but the atmosphere it cultivates. Customers describe it as a haven of calm and good energy—a cozy hideaway from Knoxville’s hustle and bustle where the staff’s warmth and genuine friendliness further enhance the experience. Roxanne Gonzalez beautifully sums it up, highlighting the peacefulness and sincere human connection found here, while Susan Reeves raves about the magical lattes that are as visually appealing as they are delicious. Visiting from out of town, Ninapenguina found sanctuary in the absence of artificial syrups—an indication of Treetop’s commitment to quality—and also enjoyed the scenic drive to the shop, making the whole outing feel like a special, restorative ritual.

The charm of Treetop Coffee Shop lies in its intimate size and local feel. While some may see its cozy space as a limitation, frequent guests like Rachel Summers view it as part of its special appeal, a personal reward spot after a long run, where one feels seen and appreciated by the owners. Helen Howser and her friend appreciate the quiet environment, perfect for conversation without the common distractions of louder coffee chains—especially valued by those with sensitive hearing.

Ultimately, Treetop Coffee Shop is more than just a place to grab your daily caffeine fix; it’s an experience that stirs the senses and replenishes the soul. Whether you’re craving a comforting cup of Tiramisu-infused coffee or a refreshing Strawberry Patch iced latte, every sip here invites you to pause, savor, and reconnect. If you want a coffee moment that truly feels special, peaceful, and made with heart, Treetop Coffee Shop in Knoxville is an exceptional choice.

    Fabulous latte! Looks great and tastes even better. Not sure of the magic here and how they do it, but it’s a special cup of Java. Highly recommend latte with whole milk and brown sugar. Yum city!

    Visiting from Texas I was on the hunt for a specialty coffee shop in the area. I visited Tree Top because I noticed they didn’t have drinks with all those frilly artificial flavors and syrups, which is always a good sign to me that the coffee is good quality and not Starbucks-esque. I was NOT disappointed. Aside from the relaxing drive through the gorgeous neighborhood that the shop is located in, the coffee tasted so delicious and the shop itself is so cozy. I tried the seasonal “harvest” latte and it tasted like a cozy cup of fall, not too sweet, just perfectly flavorful. The 2 times I visited I tried an almond croissant and a chocolate croissant— both were delectable. I’ll be coming back anytime I get the chance to visit the Knoxville area!

    Best cozy and quiet coffee shop to escape the hustle. The staff were also friendly and warm. Describing the good energy that came from the people in a review does not do it justice. All I can say is this place will bring you peace if you take the time to stop in. I will definitely be coming back. Only negative is that it’s small but that’s also a positive, so you feel like you’re spending time in your personal spot.

    This is hands down the best coffee shop in Knoxville! I’m not sure why I’ve never posted a review because I go here literally every week as my reward at the end of a long run! The owners are super sweet and the coffee is great!

    My friend and I live in the Bearden area. We were looking for, and searched google for, a quiet coffee shop where we could converse without having to yell over music or the usual loudness of places like Starbucks. She has a bit of a hearing problem. Treetop Coffee Shop popped up so we gave it a try. Lovely little coffee shop. Service was friendly and professional. The coffee was great. We took the advice of a previous reviewer and asked for a real (ceramic) cup. We also had a yummy muffin. I did ask if they might turn down the music a little, which they did. That small favor resulted in a very enjoyable experience for us. We would highly recommend it.

    Great service, friendly staff! Coffee 10/10.. 5 stars across the board. The best kind of ice used for a latte! Perfect milk to espresso to syrup ratio!!! I ordered a brown sugar iced latte and will be back.
