New to The Boardwalk at Granite Park, this Texas-based coffee shop doubles as a wine bar. Founded by Trey Suire and Andrew Cunningham in 2018, the first Golden Boy opened in Denton in 2019, and then Coppell the following year. Some great signature espresso drinks at the shop include the Honey Bear Latte and the Golden Latte with turmeric and cream of coconut. Or if you’re not in the mood for coffee, they have a nine-spice chai latte with honey and hemp milk, as well as matcha.

Opened in 2018, this West Plano coffee shop was founded by wife-and-husband Kat and Jordan Smith. The spot has tons of space to work, a “Mudroom” that you can book for small meetings or study groups, and a full-service espresso bar. Drinks are served in charming ceramic mugs including non-coffee beverages like chai lattes and hot chocolate. Using Dallas-based Cultivar Coffee beans, the shop makes some great specialty lattes like the Blueberry Latte.

Last year, this local coffee shop (other locations are in Carrollton and Frisco) took over the former XO Coffee Company space in downtown Plano. The new spot roasts its own beans at its roastery in Coppell, and also sells them by the bag. But if you’re just looking to grab an espresso drink, the Bee’s Knees latte is a delicious mixture of vanilla, honey, and lavender. And if you’re more adventurous, opt for the Citrusgoth Latte with charcoal, chocolate and citrus.
