Pourovers are great. Good selection of different beans and espresso. Not too impressed with specialty drinks; theyre VERY sugary. Takes away from the taste of the coffee.Food and staff are great.
Amazing coffee, atmosphere, service, and food! From the moment I walked in I knew I would love the place. The barista greeted me immediately and was very friendly. The space is spacious yet cozy, situated next door to a pottery studio. If you want drip coffee you just pick your mug (amongst a fun variety) and they fill it for you. I got two lattes, a sausage biscuit and a chicken biscuit. The chicken biscuit was by far my favorite, light, crispy and super flavorful. The coffee is delicious and from what I saw they support Black owned roasters which is awesome. I will for sure be back every time I’m in Memphis!
Awesome food and coffee. My boss always gets food for everybody at the office from here. My favorite sandwiches are the BLT and the grilled chicken. They are awesome, the bacon they serve is delicious, unlike anything Ive had before, thick and sweet and salty. So good! They also have salads and a few breakfast items, They also have scones and a good variety of cookies. People there are super friendly.
Rare gem in Memphis! Great place to hang out and get some work done. Fabulous food and drinks.
I love Belltower and I think their coffee is fantastic. What I am not a fan of however, is the poor customer service.I visited them mid afternoon to grab an iced latte. As I walked in, another woman walked in after me and we both stood in line. Three employees were behind the counter having a good time and laughing at each others jokes which I thought was great. However, never once was I or the woman behind me greeted or acknowledged.I stood in line patiently watching an employee walk to and from the register, look at us, and not say a word. After 5 minutes I asked if anyone was working the register and the woman making drinks rudely said whenever youre ready.The woman behind me and I looked at each other in disbelief and smiled at each other out of frustration and annoyance. Ive worked in coffee before and this is guaranteed way to lose repeat costumers. Belltower, you need to do better.
What a great place to hang and feel at home. Great baristas add the personal touch! Be sure to pick up a custom made mug before you go!
Belltower Artisans is a new coffee shop located on the Highland strip. This coffee shop has a twofold purpose. First they love coffee and secondly pottery. This is a coffee house that also provides pottery classes. While working or studying you can look to the back to see folks crafting a new pottery creation. I tried a plain small latte and it was pretty good. if your looking for a spot to work, study, or good coffee close to campus then head over to Belltower Artisans. If your looking for parking their are ample spaces behind the shop.
Love, love, love this place. Friendly staff. Always delish beverages. Ambiance is 💯 They keep you coming back.
To my dismay, they dont sell bells or towers, but I keep coming back, so they must be doing something right. Its a beautiful place with beautifully unique baristas who have their own style and approach to coffee. The drinks are delicious and the atmosphere is comfortable, relaxed, artistic, and modern. I havent done the pottery thing, but I have no doubt that the classes are really fun. I love this place.
I had no idea this place existed. I walked in and could tell why it’s slammed! The girl at the counter with the short hair was so friendly, telling me about the menu, I was raving about the amazing atmosphere and service before I even tried the coffee. Then I tried my coffee. WOW. I didn’t know a simple iced mocha could be so good. Signed up for rewards on my first visit! Please don’t go anywhere, this place is perfect for u of m students!
Awesome local place to grab a great coffee or flavored tea- and the food is amazing! Love the staff and all the little details the coffee house has to make it so inviting!
It was my first time with all of my friends the seven of us,one male(me)and six other women,the driver didnt make anything, we drove all the way from Senatobia Mississippi,we had a great time making pottery,none of us had ever done pottery before and our instructor Micha(or how ever you spell his name)was awsome,he helped us all out,each of us made three things out of clay each one costing fifteen dollars,so it cost us forty five dollars to do all three for each person,so if you add it up 15x3 = 45$,I recomend anyone who likes to use there hands,to try this place out,once your done, you will get your finished pottery in about three weeks,the coffee shop is awesome too and they serve lunch and snacks as well,so if you in the area of Memphis State,aka The University of Memphis,come and try this place out,your going to want to come back,I guarentee and one last thing,the staff are really nice too.
Probably the best vibe for a coffee shop in East Memphis right now. They have a lovely painted brick wall and large open windows on the front. The tables are all wooden and it really is the best place to study without ever being disturbed. Coffee is on par. I enjoy Vice and Virtues coffee options the most. My espresso shot was over-extracted but the pour overs are really good. I dislike that they dont have more cold brew options than J Brooks (not a fan). I usually get flash brews because of that. Solid place though.
Great place for a cup of coffee or an espresso drink. I enjoy the atmosphere.They also offer pottery classes and have several pottery wheels for studio time. I have not participated in the pottery side of the business, but I have seen some amazing work come from their studio.They are also just really nice people and support some local organizations that do good in the community.(Photo of a mug they made for a fund-raiser, that Keurig is NOT at Belltower!)
As a big advocate for small businesses and independent artists, I love that Belltower Artisans strives hard to introduce goers to Memphis pottery and caffeine culture. Everywhere you go to in this shop, there’s a cute little surprise awaiting your end! :)While I honestly don’t find of their regular caffeinated drinks to be the highlight of my time here(the coffee I ordered tasted very acidic and the matcha tea wasn’t whisked very frothy like in regular Japanese tea ceremony), I really appreciate being in a cafe that offers its customers positive vibes, free wifi, and a chance to help them understand why it’s important to treat your fellow artists fairly.Say, would it be possible to host Japanese tea ceremony nights here? Ever since the Way of Tea in Tennessee disbanded, I haven’t had a chance to practice tea ceremony much around here. :(Plus, it would be great if we can introduce more Memphians to tea culture beyond serving regular bubble tea and bagged tea drinks, especially since I love seeing pottery in action, so to speak. :)
Nice place. Fast internet and lots of outlets for devices.
Ever since Avenue coffee closed, this is where you will find a lot of your 20-something u of m hipster coffee drinkers. That being said, their addition of a food menu, an outdoor patio, and an entire area dedicated to just pottery shows how great they have become. Once covid-19 ends, I expect this place to boom more. If you are in the area, go grab a cup!
Great local spot! Terrific coffee, good breakfast and lunch options and a ceramics studio! Lots of space to sit at a table, with plenty of distance.
Loved the coffee AND the price!
I’m pretty sure that every time I’ve visited Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush has played at least once over the speakers. Truly amazing.
Great outdoor seating. Love the ambience
Great coffee, amazing vibe, and spectacular food!
Very nice staff. Lovely atmosphere! They have a bookshelf with books and games, and there are couches to enjoy them on! And they have pottery classes! The mugs your coffee comes in are all made there! Really neat place. The coffee is tasty too ☕ 😄
Sweet place!
I love this place! Belltower has a great variety of drink options & is always a great place to study. Their coffee is great, and they have a pretty good pastry selection to pick from as well. I like that there are always plenty of wall outlets available if you ever need to charge up. In my experience the baristas have been attentive and theyve always given good suggestions.Its definitely worth a visit if you are wanting to get some work done, meet up with a group, or just hang out and relax.
I had a great experience at Belltower the other day. I took a class with a few of my friends and our moms and it was so awesome! Most of us were newbies and the teacher was so helpful with teaching us how to use the pottery wheel, and for the 2 people in my group who had done the class before, the teacher allowed them to use the clay to make whatever they wanted, which we all appreciated the flexibility. The coffee is great too, with lots of great options, and I would definitely enjoying coming back to study or do another class here!
Good Coffee but I just watched a barista flip off a customer when they turned around!They need to get their employees in check!
Have been coming here since my Freshman year of college. It’s such a nice place to come study and hangout. The atmosphere is very nice and the whole shop is very clean. The employees are so nice and welcoming. Such a great place! Highly recommend!
Very appetizing. the service here is friendly. prices that are reasonable.
Best coffee Ive ever had. Good ambience as well. Staff is knowledgeable and polite.
Belltower is the greatest! One of my favorite places to study, they have bottomless iced coffee and outlets pretty much everywhere. What more could ya ask for? If you havent given them a visit yet, GO.
Amazing lavender lattes and great customer service. We love to come here and study or relax. If you are in the market for a good quality beverage or just want to treat yo self, I would strongly recommend coming to Belltower. Also, if you like pottery and eclectic mugs, this place has that too. To sum up, great vibes, great people, great coffee.
I visited from out of town. I was trying to find a good coffee spot in Memphis, and this one is great! The space if bright and spacious. The coffee is very good, and the specialty drink I tried was outstanding (iced coffee with coconut, it was very refreshing without being overly sweet). I was also excited to see that they had oat milk.
Love this place. The coffee select ion is great (hot brews, cold brews, etc) and the quality is perfect. The setting is also unique in that it is a local coffee shop, but also some local clay sculptors and classes you can take. There are small tables, longer tables, couches, etc so it fits whatever you are looking for. Definitely my favorite coffee place Ive found in Memphis.
Belltower Artisans is nothing short of wonderful! From the staff to the coffee to the atmosphere, it is the perfect place for a coffee date or an afternoon of studying. I love the relatively late hours and how the staff remember you when you come back. Its also great because youre allowed to bring in outside food, which is nice if you just want a cup of coffee while studying. Highly recommend!! Love this place and so glad it opened!
Such a great and confortable place to spend time with friends or study/read/write by yourself. Really close to campus as well. Love the seasonal drinks they offer and would love a return of the Harry Potter inspired ones!
Belltower has a great selection of coffee drinks, an awesome atmosphere and friendly staff! It’s a great place to chill for some quiet work or explore the local pottery items. Highly recommend checking it out!
I love good coffee. And almost every city I visit, New York, la, Orlando, Boston, Las Vegas, I will make time to visit its signature coffee shop. Belltower artisans is definitely one of the best coffee shop I’d been to. It’s a coffee + pottery shop. The staffs are super friendly, they make expresso just the right amount of time, so you can taste all three flavors, bitter, sour and sweetness all together, just the way coffee should taste! My go to drinks are cappuccino + oat milk and oak milk ice latte. My friend loves its mocha cappuccino. Can’t go wrong with any drink there though.
So cute and homey! They offer pottery classes and local coffee and teas. I bought 2 hand made unique mugs that are awesome. Micah and Caleb were so nice and informative and happy! Wish this was here when I was in college..its on the highland strip near U of Memphis. Will be back for sure!
Such an incredible environment, especially for group events! We hosted our Entrepreneur Mastermind for Memphis Entrepreneur Club with over 30 people. The hospitality, comfort and service we received was phenomenal. I am really impressed with the accomplishments these two young entrepreneurs have made. I was very pleased with the satisfaction of all of our members. Belltower stayed open later than usual just to make sure we were all well taken care of!
This place is really amazing. The store is really well designed and the coffees are very really good. They offer a great variety of drinks and the staff is very honest and friendly. The owner was very accommodating as he explained the menu options. This shop has a very artsy vibe and they offer great pottery classes as well.
Great cafe! They are so friendly and it has such a great atmosphere. The only downside is that they don’t serve food besides cakes and oatmeal, but I still really like this place.
Awesome coffee, but the real stand out was the breakfast burrito
Great vibes, great coffee, and even better people. This coffee place surpasses the local coffee scene with their fine brewed coffee made with extra love and affection. Another favorite item of mine is the lavender latte, a perfect balance between cream, coffee, and a sweet delicious taste of lavender. Its perfect!
Love the lattes and the atmosphere. They have a lot of good books and board games to pass the time with people so it is a fun place to just hang out with people and pass some time. It looks really nice and has a good location on the strip.
I love coming to this place! it is super chill, a great environment especially if youre a college student looking for a place to do work. Also, great drinks :)
Love Belltower!!!! My son is a talented potter, still in high school, and I feel comfortable letting him spend ALL his free time working at Belltower. He loves being able to create and I love that he is safe!
This class is very enjoyable. This was only my second class here and I feel like Im getting better already. The instructors, Micah and Christopher, are excellent teachers and their story is very inspiring! I will definitely be taking another pottery class here. If youre ever looking for something interesting to do in Memphis then you should book a class here. Did I mention the amazing cappuccino with super friendly baristas?
The coffee here I amazing and has such a nice aura that’s warm and comfortable. The barista’s are always nice and welcoming. A great place to get studying done
I absolutely love this place. It’s a great study spot, a great place to hangout with friends, and so much more. Not to mention the coffee is great too. If you’re looking for a new place to try, come here!!!!
If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. Belltower has a very welcoming and comfortable atmosphere that is great for anything from catching up with an old friend to studying for your exams. I’m usually here multiple times per day (which probably says something about my caffeine addiction but who really cares), partly because the owners and employees are all very genuine and easy to talk to. I promise you’ll have a great time if you stop here for your caffeine fix!!
Amazing coffee in a great location! You have to stop by and try the coffee, take a pottery class, or just sit down and enjoy some the University of Memphis area. The only place for coffee in Memphis. Bought a couple of coffee mugs made on site! Make this your daily coffee stop in Memphis!
Took the beginners class on learning the wheel..what an awesome experience! My girls loved it too! Great instruction- although there were 9 people in our class there was still one in one time for learning the process! The coffee shop is a bonus - the coffee is so good!
Delicious coffee and snacks, complimented by a friendly and welcoming staff, great music, and beautiful pottery. Definitely my favorite study spot!
This place is BAWLIN Yo!! Great interior design and overall color scheme. Grateful to have a place to go and study with no visible cameras inside, because the birds work for the bourgeoisie.
Great coffee & lovely baristas! One of our favorites spots in town, great atmosphere. Love
Amazing! Love this place so much!
Just discovered this gem two weeks ago. Love the coffee, atmosphere, and service! Especially love that they have Oat Milk. Also love that i’m always productive when I come here. Def recommend this place if you love craft and quality coffee.
What other place can you get coffee and also take a pottery class?!?! For real . . . this place is truly unique and not just for Memphis. I cant think of another place like it. I also love the fact that its a place where local makers can sell their work. I was impressed by the quality of what was available which lets me know the owners have a good eye. Im planning to make this a consistent stop after work and on weekends too. Nice atmosphere and plenty of good parking in the back of the Highland Strip oh and Insomnia Cookies is like two door down. : )
It has such a welcoming atmosphere! It’s a great place for college students to hang out or get some studying done! The coffee is amazing!!! 10/10 would recommend!
Belltower Artisans is the perfect spot to unwind - whether making pottery or enjoying coffee and a pastry. The owners, Micah and Christopher, make you feel welcomed and valued as customers and it has a very relaxing atmosphere. I took a pottery class with Micah and he was a great teacher and extremely patient. This shop is such an awesome addition to Memphis and I can’t wait to go back!
Amazing atmosphere amazing menu. Employees are very helpful and so sweet and truly seem to be happy to be here. Will 100% be back!! The summer special iced golden sunshine is sooooooooo great
What a truly interesting place! Cool concept and the drinks are divine! Try the Black Berry Cream Latte or the Mango Strawberry Spritzer. Their syrups are homemade! 🤯
Having now had several drinks here and taken a pottery class, I can say that this is one of my new favorite places in Memphis. The pottery wheel class was well structured and they offer several additional classes that I look forward to taking in the future. The espresso drinks are phenomenal. While I’ve really enjoyed the drinks I’ve ordered from the menu, it was a lot of fun to partake in “The Barista’s Choice”. After a couple questions, I had a new drink in my hand and all the instructions were told to me on how to order it again.
Truly amazing coffee. The atmosphere is perfect for working or studying - relaxed and cozy. Good vibes all around!
Awesome place to come out and get things done. Love the atmosphere! Their coffee is great too!!
Love the bottomless option! also yay almond milk!! the coffee is great and there are amazing options. i love the metal straws and mason jars—saving the environment!!
Love this place. Coffee is amazing and atmosphere is perfect! I work from home and am very productive when Im here working.
Belltower has amazing coffee, service, and atmosphere! By far one of my favorite coffee shops in the area and I always recommend it to anyone looking for a good place to get work done.
I love this place. Great vibe, excellent coffee (from pour-overs to cappuccinos to drip). The management is friendly, the staff always smiles at me, and it’s a great place to spend time with friends or study.
Always love visiting Bell Tower! The coffee tastes great and it’s a good place to study when you want to get off of campus.
Belltower Artisans is a great study spot. The smell of fresh brewed coffee and the visual appeal of this artisan hangout creates an amazing atmosphere.
Great service and great coffee! Staff is welcoming and super helpful.
Cozy atmosphere and lots of outlets. Great for studying and hanging out. Also great coffee and variety of drinks. One of my favorites.
It was tons of fun and everything I got was delicious. I went with a large group and they handled us really well. Great teachers with an inspiring story. Would definitely go again!!
This place is truly unique! I am so thankful that they have come to this community and neighborhood with their well thought out coffee, art, and pottery concept. Great addition to the Highland Strip!
Great environment! Love to go to here and unwind. Great service! Great coffee!
Great vibe here. Super nice staff. Tasty drinks. Open space and natural lighting. Highly recommend!
The atmosphere here is very cozy coffeehouse! Love it every time!
One of my favorite places. Great coffee and creative specials. Ive never been disappointed!
The place is calm and clean. The drinks are awesome and the people are even better!
Their coffee is great and I love that they have a bottomless option! Everyone that works there is very nice.
Awesome atmosphere and amazing service. Nice variety of different beans and best drip in Memphis.
Great environment very peaceful and chilled, the customer service is amazing and they great you when you arrive. I love it
Been coming here since the semester started, great vibe, very quiet, and very convenient as far as location and distance from the university, would definitely suggest swinging by here if you go to the University of Memphis
I got the bottomless cup of coffee and it made for a great morning on a rainy Saturday.
Neat place for coffee, study, or hangout. The pros are the late hours, comfy furniture, and many work tables. The cons are coffee the prices for coffee ($3 for 12oz drip coffee in a to-go cup, $3.50 if you want refills), limited food (muffins, lemon squares, brownies). Also, this is more of a personel issue, but two employees are obviously romantically involved, because my transaction at the register was interrupted by an awkward advance of the boy on the girl!
Love the coffee! Great place to study and hangout! Very cool atmosphere
Belltower is a very warm place to be. From amazing coffee to delicious snacks they have everything any college student would want, and for people who just want to sit down and enjoy a nice cup of coffee.
Neat little chill place. Coffee is alright and a little pricey but you definitely get what you pay for. Very open atmosphere.
Belltower is an amazing coffee shop! All of their coffee is so so yummy and you have to make sure to get a Smores Bar!
