--- title: Smoky Mountain Coffee Shops description: Cozy mountain vacations and warm cups of coffee go hand-in-hand. Something about mountain air and skylines full of lush greenery makes coffee taste better than it ever has before. This pairing is absolutely perfect. If you've been to Gatlinburg, the chances are good that you've stopped at one of the many coffee stands around town. You may have missed some of the other coffee shops around the Smoky Mountains, though! Here are some of my favorite coffee shops to visit while I'm exploring the majesty of Smoky Mountain National Park.  image: https://www.smokymountains.me/hubfs/dani-ZLqxSzvVr7I-unsplash.jpg --- [![smokymountainsme-trans](https://www.smokymountains.me/hs-fs/hubfs/smokymountainsme-trans.png?width=300&name=smokymountainsme-trans.png "smokymountainsme-trans")](https://www.smokymountains.me) [![smokymountainsme-trans](https://www.smokymountains.me/hs-fs/hubfs/smokymountainsme-trans.png?width=300&name=smokymountainsme-trans.png "smokymountainsme-trans")](https://www.smokymountains.me) [**](https://www.smokymountains.me/smoky-mountain-coffee-shops#) 1 ![featured image 1](https://www.smokymountains.me/hubfs/dani-ZLqxSzvVr7I-unsplash.jpg) Shopping and Dining # Smoky Mountain Coffee Shops ![](https://www.smokymountains.me/hubfs/BEAADA8B-EAB9-41DB-B81E-479BD788DF9F.jpg) By [Bailee Wilson](https://www.smokymountains.me/author/bailee-wilson) January 10, 2021 ### Posts by Topic - [Activities (152)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/activities) - [Amusement (148)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/amusement) - [Events (106)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/events) - [Family (105)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/family) - [Around Town (97)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/around-town) - [Shopping and Dining (68)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/shopping-and-dining) - [Holiday (64)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/holiday) - [Outdoor (60)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/outdoor) - [Summer (40)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/summer) - [Winter (37)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/winter) - [Free (31)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/free) - [Tips and Tricks (24)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/tips-and-tricks) - [News (23)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/news) - [Date Night (16)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/date-night) - [Music (13)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/music) - [History (10)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/history) - [Nightlife (9)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/nightlife) - [Fitness (7)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/fitness) - [snow (6)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/snow) - [Off-Season (5)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/off-season) - [Contest (3)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/contest) - [Luxury Adventures (2)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/luxury-adventures) - [Season Passes (2)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/season-passes) - [Ski (2)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/ski) - [Weather and Terrain (2)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/weather-and-terrain) - [Golf (1)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/golf) - [House Tour (1)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/house-tour) - [Luxury Homes (1)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/luxury-homes) - [Notable Locals (1)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/notable-locals) - [Services (1)](https://www.smokymountains.me/tag/services) [![Book Lodging](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/534331/41641d6a-06ef-4999-9369-c4aceb52efda.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/534331/41641d6a-06ef-4999-9369-c4aceb52efda) Search Cozy mountain vacations and warm cups of coffee go hand-in-hand.
