The long awaited opening of the J-Town Quills has finally happened! In my opinion, Quills is the best coffee in town and it is great to have one on this side of town. This particular location has great aesthetics and a great wide, open floor plan with more seating in the loft. Not as much outdoor seating as the Firehouse location, but there are a few patio tables outside the front of the building. The decor is very minimalistic and modern with the vault being the eye catcher of the setting. The cappuccino I had tasted extra good today, but it could have just been the excitement of the new location (I'm sure the coffee was just better!). Excited to come back in the near future!

This is a great Quills in a great location. The atmosphere is relaxed and the building is really nice. It was built where a bank used to be, so the way they incorporated that into the design is neat. And the drinks are great, too!

Coffee lovers in Jtown area, you’ll be thrilled with this quaint location nestled in the heart of the town. Perfect location! Coffee is smooth tasting and stands out above the others. Inside decor is fancy with an upstairs level to meet others or sit by yourself in a quiet corner. Baristas are more than helpful and make you feel welcome. So excited about this Quills that’s closer to home. You will see me here frequently!!

My first time trying Quills and the experience was awesome. The iced mocha tasted great—not acidic at all and very refreshing. The decor inside was sparse, but fit the clean, modern, and efficient vibe. They have free wifi with the password being provided at the condiment bar. The service was really welcoming and I can’t wait to go back. I picked up a bag of Southern Gothic as I’m a huge fan of Columbian coffee and the smell is out of this world good. I can’t wait to try it.

I was recently introduced to this coffee shop and came in to this location for my first visit. The store is great with lots of room and lots of seating. I ordered the coffee and a red velvet cookie. The coffee was a batch brew that was good, and the cookie was delicious. Staff were friendly and service fast. I’d like to check out some of their other locations.

Visited Quills Coffee with my coffee connoisseur father-in-law, and we both loved it! The vibe was relaxed and inviting, totally our style. I asked the barista for a recommendation and boy did she deliver! The drink was rich, smooth, and absolutely perfect. "WOODSMAN" You can tell they really care about their craft. Definitely a must-visit for coffee lovers!

Incredible coffee. We tried the cold brew, tonic, and soda and all were some of the best we'd tried. Really well brewed with no harsh bitter or sourness. And the scone was a great treat on top. Highly recommend!!

It’s Derby weekend and I’m not from this area but it was starting to get busy !! Lily and Kaz were good at getting drinks out and keeping their calm🤍 Lily was also very nice and had a super cool horse shirt that kinda matched mine🐴 Good vibes, good coffee. Amazing team. Nice job to these two for managing the floor as it picked up !! Also lovely drawings Kaz made for the derby. Thank you for the tasty hot chocolate that my friend ordered and for The Picnic Blanket!! (a sweet, spring seasonal choice🌸) sending love from WI🫶🏼
