About Two Story Coffeehouse
Two Story Coffeehouse exists to provide the Athens community with a comfortable place to enjoy a great cup of coffee in a unique coffeehouse experience. Our beautiful historic house in Five Points provides two different stories to fit the needs of each individual who is welcomed through our doors.
The first story provides an environment perfect for enjoying community and conversation. With our large coffee bar, comfortable seating, and spacious porches, you will find the perfect place to catch up with a friend or share a random moment with someone new.
The second story creates an ideal environment for anyone looking for a quiet place to read or study. There you will find two rooms that are dedicated to making it easy to concentrate and be productive- no matter what the task.
Our Eastside location has its own unique style, as well. Plenty of comfortable seating in the main area and a designated quiet room in the back for studying make Two Story Eastside the perfect spot for hanging out or for getting down to business.
At Two Story Coffeehouse you will
find more than just great coffee and excellent service, you
will find a unique environment and authentic people who are
truly interested in your Story.
Our Story, Your Story - Two Story!
The Best Cup of Coffee In Town!
We truly do coffee differently here.
We have selected our coffees and our brew methods
with the purpose of doing coffee excellently and uniquely. It is
our belief that each cup of coffee is different and that coffee is
often the center of a community experience. However, this community
doesn't start with the cup of coffee, it starts with the actual
bean, which is why we have chosen to be our own
roaster. We are committed to the fair- and direct-trade model, as well as
environmentally sustainable practices that support the cultures and
communities where the coffee is grown.
When you walk into Two Story, you will notice two ways that we brew coffee.
Our signature brew, the manual pour-over, puts the control of the brew into the hands of the Barista as opposed to a machine. By individually brewing each cup of coffee we ensure the freshest cup. Not only does this produce a great, fresh-tasting cup of coffee, but it also gives you the opportunity to get to know your Barista as you watch your coffee drip. It's time to slow down and smell the coffee...
In addition to the manual pour-over, we also offer coffee brewed by French Press. Pressed coffee produces a distinct cup by pulling
different nuances of the coffee to the front of the taste palette.
Moreover, the French Press experience is hard to match. Our Coffee on the Fly is pressed daily. Enjoy a personal press all to yourself or join a group of friends and share a large press while you take pleasure in conversation and
the company of one another at one of our round tables.
Whether you choose to enjoy a world coffee, our traditional cappuccino, or any of our Espresso drinks, we believe that you will get the best cup of coffee in town every time.
