Be sure to read my Favorite Restaurants in Dallas, Favorite Places to Shop in Dallas and Favorite Hotels in Dallas to plan your next adventure! xoxo
Ascension Coffee – There are seven locations in Dallas, including their roastery. Ascension offers a larger food menu than most coffee shops and has a great happy hour including both coffee and wine. Their coffee is sourced from local farmers and brews using a variety of unique methods. Most of their locations are great for both working and meeting friends.
Commissary – This is one of my favorite stops in Downtown Dallas (image featured above). Commissary has a large food menu offering breakfast and lunch options as well as a small market area to pick up things to go. This is more of a place to meet friends than it is a place to work. When you’re done with your coffee, be sure to grab a scoop of their gelato!
Davis Street Espresso – Trendy Oak Cliff coffee shop with a great patio. They host a lot of local events and have a large selection of merchandise for sale. It is a great spot for meeting up with friends, especially if the weather is nice.
Fiction Coffee – The rotating mural on the wall of the entrance is a must-see. They have local artists create the most fun pieces! Fiction Coffee is a smaller space but has plenty of room to work.
Foxtrot – The newest coffee shop/market/store in Dallas. Foxtrot has a great patio, plenty of space to work inside, a cute shop to buy gifts and gourmet foods, to-go and delivery menus, and a coffee bar. It is a full experience and should be on everyone’s list.
Halcyon Coffee Bar – Large coffee shop on Greenville with plenty of soft seating and work spaces inside. There is also a large patio if the weather is nice. They offer happy hour every day from 4-8 including beer and wine as well as coffee. They also offer a small food menu.
Houndstooth Coffee – They have three locations in Dallas and some in Austin as well. Houndstooth offers catering services if your office is near one of their locations, but each store has plenty of work space and small food menus.
La La Land Kind Cafe – La La Land is another new spot in Dallas and offers so much more than just coffee! They mentor and employ disadvantaged foster youth who are aging out of the system. Their menu is 100% organic, the food menu is limited to toast and cookies but there are some unique coffee, tea, and matcha options. It is located just off Henderson and offers great spaces to work or meet friends.
Magnolias Sous Le Pont – Hidden in the Harwood District, Magnolias Sous Le Pont has a spacious patio and plenty of room inside to work. The cold brew and matcha are our personal favorites.
Mudsmith – Locations on lower Greenville and Oaklawn, offering a much larger food menu than most coffee shops. Mudsmith also has a large selection of pressed juice, beer, wine, and kombucha on tap!
Overeasy – Inside the recently renovated Statler Hotel, Overeasy is part restaurant and part coffee bar. It is more of a place to meet friends than a space to work. The restaurant part offers a large and delicious food menu. The coffee bar is easily accessible through the lobby, but there will most likely be a wait for brunch in the dining room so plan ahead.
Royal Blue Grocery – The Highland Park Village location has a cute patio and a loft with plenty of workspaces. The downtown location has a smaller workspace and is better for to-go orders. Royal Blue Grocery offers a small menu but has plenty of to-go goodies and a mini-market where you can buy some groceries, gourmet foods, and gifts.
State Street Coffee – Located in uptown, the patio is very spacious and dog friendly. State Street uses unique brewing methods to create its craft drinks and offers a small menu of tacos and donuts. There is plenty of work space inside as well.
