Alcove Coffeehouse

The outdoor seating area with a view of Lake Lucerne is a big hit with families. Many stop off en route to the Yellow River Wildlife Sanctuary or after lessons at the nearby Gwinnett School of Music. Parents love the iced caramel macchiato coffee, and kids go for hand-made lemonade, hand-crafted sodas, child-sized cocoa, popcorn and King of Pops treats.

Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee Company

The Roswell location has a large patio in back with pavers and grass gives kids a place to be kids, and the family dog is welcome on the patio, too. When families visit, kids order Italian sodas or something from the King of Pops cooler; adults can choose an iced version of any coffee drink on the menu or pick from 12 types of iced tea.

With a shop and a food truck, this coffee stop offers delicious coffees, teas and pastries. Try the Shakerado, a shaken cold coffee with foam, or the Special events include a weekly chai-making workshop, a spring market and storytelling.

Rev Coffee Roasters

This shop has coffee from around the world for you to try, and kids will love the seasonal offerings, like apple cider, smoothies and holiday-themed bakery treats. They also host music and arts festivals in the spring and fall.
