Merit Coffee

I love Merit! Best coffee in Texas in my opinion This location can be pretty busy since in a prime spot in Preston Hollow. Merit does have an app that lets you preorder to pick up coffee to avoid long lines. The team is quick and kind whenever I go in. They have a variety that of unique seasonal offerings- strawberry matcha being one of my favorites. Their coffee is always bursting with flavor and their lattes are creamy and rich. Even their cold brew is levels above most places in terms of flavor.The shop is near Trader Joe's, apartments and a bunch of apartments. They have plenty of indoor seating with windows that allow a lot of natural light and city scenes. Cute and quiet when I went in today.

I am by no means a coffee connoisseur, but I'm always so delighted by Merit Coffee! They have new seasonal flavors in, and i tried the Shaken Maple Pecan iced Latte and it was phenomenal! Highly recommend

A convenient location for me and one of my favorite places to stop by for a quick coffee on the go or stay and read a book. Always tasty coffee and treats!

Definitely will visit when I'm in area. My latte was very good and looked adorable- love coffee art! Service was good too- they were helpful in our coffee recommendations.Great for studying, reading or quick Business meeting spot

Friendly, local coffee spot at Walnut Hill and 75 (Northwest corner, semi-near Trader Joe's and Solidcore) in Preston Hollow. Was nice for the Merit locations to be open on thanksgiving day from 8-12 noon, just enough time to get a good latte before meeting family. Solid coffee, standard milk options and alt milk options (including oat), a variety of pastries and snacks and friendly, knowledgeable baristas. Plenty of parking, too. And yes, they'll even make a iced cortado without any second thought.

Nice spot for coffee and quiet to work ! The patio is nice and covered. Enjoyed the cold brew and a pastry which was fresh and delicious. Look forward to returning

I've been a customer of Merit Coffee for many years, starting in San Antonio when I used to make regular trips there for work. I've mostly been a bagged coffee customer, but over the last couple of years, I've really upped my personal coffee game at home with pourover and espresso gear, and I've come to appreciate the finer nuances of coffee. Lately, my quest has been to find places in Dallas where one can get a straight (or "neat") espresso that tastes great, and is served as though the shop regularly does this and has a proper service for it. Many places will kind of look at you funny and serve it in a paper cup, but Merit does it right. They have the standard espresso that's used in the milk drinks, plus a single origin "rotator" that they serve for straight espresso. I, of course, opted for this one, and was rewarded with a wonderful cup. It had a modest acidity, not too overpowering, and good, clear notes of fruit and brown sugar sweetness from the light medium roast. A cortado from the same bean, plus a little raw sugar, really brought out those tasting notes and made for a sweet and creamy delight in the glass. If you're in the shop soon after this review, the selection they had on this day was the Cesar X Clever from Peru. This is what I'd call a "top tier" coffee shop, especially in the Dallas area, where truly exceptional espresso service seems to be hard to find. Definitely check this place out, you won't be disappointed!

Located near the Trader Joe's on Walnut Hill in a nice area. The interior is nice and they have a cute, cozy shop with some goods/merch you can buy. Seating is pretty limited but it wasn't busy when we went. There's also a station for water, which is nice. Overall, it's a great cafe to check out and catch up with a friend!

Merit Coffee has both the best coffee in town, and the best vibes. The baristas are very knowledgeable and helpful, and there are tons of drink options. Locally roasted Texas coffee too!

Tried Merit for the first time this weekend and will definitely be back! The baristas were super friendly, and my drink was really good. I did order a 12oz, and received a 16oz, but it's not a big deal, just a little more milk than I would've wanted. The drink had just the right amount of sweetness though, and the espresso shined. I took my drink to-go, but I want to come back and sit inside for a while! It seems like a little social hub and a great place to hang with friends or get some work done. It was busy for a Sunday afternoon, but that's to be expected. Merch was cute too! A bit pricey, but I caved and got a few stickers. Drink: iced mocha latte with oat milk.
