Lubbock Coffee Trail Ready to explore Lubbock one cup at a time? Grab your coffee loving friends and get ready to drink your way through Hub City with the Lubbock Coffee Trail.
The trail features 11 locally loved coffee shops, the Lubbock Coffee Trail is your invitation to discover new corners of the city whilst trying something different and, of course, enjoy plenty of coffee along the way. Whether you love a cold brew, a latte enthusiast or a pasty person, there is a shop waiting for you.
You can make the trail whatever you want it to be. You can ever start the trail from anywhere. Whether it is for a morning caffeine picks up, meeting with a friend in the afternoon or spending the whole day exploring what Lubbock’s coffee scene has to offer, Hub City has you covered.
Along the way, you'll be able to find everything from locally roasted coffee and creative specialty drinks to pastries, books and meals worth sticking around for.
Start with a Lubbock Favourite at Monomyth Coffee
Kick off your coffee adventure at Monomyth Coffee, a Lubbock favourite known for expertly crafted coffee and a welcoming atmosphere. It's an easy place to ease into your coffee crawl, whether you're grabbing your first cup of the day or settling in for a little while.
Discover Local Roasting at Gold Stripe Coffee Roasters
Next, make your way to Gold Stripe Coffee Roasters, where locally roasted coffee takes centre stage. With two Lubbock locations, it's a great stop for discovering a new favourite drink while getting a taste of the city's growing coffee culture.
A Lubbock Classic: J&B Coffee
No Lubbock coffee adventure would be complete without J&B Coffee. A longtime part of the Hub City's coffee scene, J&B is a favourite place to meet up with friends, settle in with your laptop or simply enjoy a good cup of coffee. It's the kind of local institution that reminds you that great coffee isn't just about what's in your cup—it's about the people and places that make a community feel like home.
Something Sweet at Sugar Browns Coffee Co.
Have a sweet tooth? Sugar Browns Coffee Co. is calling your name. Add a pastry or seasonal drink to your coffee order and settle into the cosy atmosphere for a little while. It's the perfect reminder that sometimes a coffee run deserves to become a full-on treat.
Slow Down at He-Brews Coffee
Sometimes the best part of a coffee shop is simply having somewhere to slow down. At He-Brews Coffee, take a break from your adventures around town and enjoy a cup in a laid-back setting. Grab your drink, take a seat and enjoy a little downtime before heading to your next Lubbock adventure.
Make a Midday Stop at Nashwell Café
 Coffee doesn't have to be a morning-only activity. Head downtown to Nashwell Café, where coffee meets Australian-inspired food for a stop that can easily turn your caffeine break into lunch. If you're spending the day exploring downtown Lubbock, Nashwell is a great place to fuel up before continuing your adventure.
Coffee and Pastries? Yes, please.
At Ninety-Two Bakery & Café, coffee and pastries come together for a delicious stop along the trail. With a French-inspired feel, it's a great place to slow down, grab something sweet and enjoy a different side of Lubbock's coffee culture. Because let's be honest: sometimes coffee tastes even better with a pastry.
Keep the Caffeine Coming at Cafeination Station
By now, you might be thinking that one cup isn't going to be enough—and that's exactly what the Coffee Trail is for. Make your way to Caffeination Station for another opportunity to grab a drink, take a break, and keep exploring. It's another local stop to add to your Lubbock coffee adventure.
Coffee, Books and a Little Browsing at Lit Brews
For anyone who believes a great coffee shop should come with something good to read, Lit Brews is a must-visit. This unique coffee shop combines two of the best things in life: coffee and books. Browse the shelves, find something that catches your eye, and enjoy a drink while you explore.
 Finish Your Crawl at Brewed Awakening
Wrap up your Lubbock Coffee Trail adventure at Brewed Awakening, where creative drinks and something delicious to eat make for a satisfying final stop. Or don't call it the end just yet. One of the best things about exploring Lubbock's coffee scene is that there is always a reason to come back for another cup.
Coffee First, Adventure Next
Your coffee cup may eventually run empty, but your Lubbock adventure doesn't have to. One of the best things about the Lubbock Coffee Trail is how easily you can pair your coffee stops with everything else there is to see and do around the city.
Grab a coffee, then get outside. Take your morning caffeine fix to one of Lubbock's parks, trails, or outdoor attractions. Looking for fresh air and a little West Texas scenery? Explore our outdoorsman's guide to Lubbock.
