The Dallas area is no stranger to great restaurants, the arts, and craft coffee. Merit Coffee, based in San Antonio, recently expanded their brand to Austin and Dallas completing a total of eleven locations throughout Texas.
Merit retains a true farm to cup coffee experience being fiercely focused on the art and science behind their craft. The owners take pride in traveling to farms throughout Central America taking part in cupping and negotiating face to face with local farmers.
The bar was extremely clean and organized. {You can see my pour over being prepared!}
These are the current offerings as the menu changes season to season. {Note the white-out}
The coffee steward recommend the The La Joya for my pour over.
Gonzanama Loja, Ecuardor
Taste Notes: Brown Sugar, Marzipan, Peach
Acidity: Low
The shop retains a Scandinavian feel with Ikea-style furniture, subway tile, and industrial ceilings.
Major plus: The music was turned down so low that I didn't even realize it was on. That's a good thing because it allows customers to enjoy their craft coffee experience without feeling rushed to leave.
Merit Coffee is located in an historic area of Dallas called Deep Ellum just east of downtown. Here you can find restaurants, boutique shops, specialty jazz bars, and industrial urban building art.
