Best Coffee Shops to Visit on National Coffee Day + A High-Energy Playlist

While you may be a regular at Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts, Murfreesboro has some quality local coffee shops that deserve just as much love. National Coffee Day is Sunday, September 29, and we’ve rounded up the best local coffee shops to visit in addition to some caffeine-fueled tunes to set the mood.

Just Love Coffee
Just Love Coffee is more than just a coffee shop; it’s a social justice venture. Within the first year of operations, they gave back more than $100,000 to the local community. While their full menu and coffee are both good, their passion for helping others is better.

Morning Brew
Morning Brew is a great place to sit back, relax and enjoy a hot cuppa joe as you watch Murfreesboro go by. From great quality coffee, a variety of smoothies and a selection of delicious biscuits, muffins, and more, Morning Brew will surely be a hit for National Coffee Day.

White Bison Coffee
White Bison serves a variety of artisan beverages and can be found across Middle Tennessee. Their coffee beans are direct-sourced from the farmer to your cup and change seasonally for their small-batch brews. This place is a local treasure and definitely one to check out if you haven’t been.

Coffee Fusion
Coffee Fusion is not your average coffee joint. They offer an assortment of delicious beverages and authentic Vietnamese dishes. If you’re looking for a shop that’s out of the ordinary, stop in for their espresso, boba tea, and Bahn mi’s.

Try Out Some Light Roasts on National Coffee Day
According to Morgan Bennett, the RAVE Reviews coffee expert, “dark roasts mask the unique flavors of coffee beans, they aren’t the right choice as you begin to explore coffee’s varied flavors”. When you go out sampling on Sunday, make sure to test out lighter roasts to get the full flavor of each shop’s roasts.
