“ Coffee roasting is a hot and complicated process but Charlie makes it sound pretty straightforward. Great coffee and a good place to see a master at work. ”

“ J.W. makes the best lattes!!! Definitely support Jittery joes and the wonderful artists they feature in their shops when I say artists I mean the baristas too! ”

- Nurse Bubbles -

“ I love that Jittery Joe’s services walk in clients out of their distribution center. It’s awesome & has great character! Everyone that works in this location is always super friendly. Other reviewers have knocked this location for not seating etc, that’s not really the intention of this location as it’s more less their distribution hub, not really the JJ location to visit if you want to hang around. But it’s definitely worth the visit! Made me the best shot in the dark, thanks JJ! ”

“ Just moved to the area and had to travel an hour to check this place out. Hit Trader Joe's while in Athens as well, so worth the drive. Got Wake and Bake and Traveling' Joe, and both are fresh and rich tasting. Will make this trip once a month for sure! Shout out to Patrick for his help. Positive, smiling guy who makes you feel like a regular. Definitely put this place on your to do list. We visited the roaster, not the coffee shops. ”

- Zane Bueno -

“ I come here every week to fill up my jar with coffee beans. The staff is so knowledgeable, helpful, and super sweet. They all know me as a regular which is crazy and makes me feel at home. It's my favorite spot in Athens to chill. The beans are always fresh and amazing. I never get Starbucks or stale grocery beans because the ones here are fresh and affordable. Overall, everyone who is in town should definitely try this place out to get beans or coffee or tea. ”

“ I buy 5 lb bags of coffee at a time. Always found employees exceptional. I have been going for over 2 yrs. Complainers probably their nature ”

- Judy Talton -

“ No one makes a mocha like JW! And the roaster is full of art, things to buy, and nice people! Best coffee in town thanks to the best toaster, Charlie Mustard! ”

- Audrey Haynes -

“ My friends scheduled a coffee tasting for my birthday this month and it was such a fun group experience. One of their friendly and knowledgeable staff members guides your group through tasting several coffees without revealing what they are, and it's so fun to try to identify the notes with your friends. At the end they reveal what all the coffees were, and I found a new favorite coffee this way. Charlie even gave me a delicious jar of local Kuhlbee Honey as a birthday gift and I put it on everything now. After tasting, there are used books and local art to browse or buy while you enjoy a cup of your favorite - you won't feel rushed out the door. I will definitely be scheduling another tasting in the future, and I recommend this activity for any small group of coffee drinkers. ”
