Dallas January Coffee Guide: Warm Up with the City’s Best Brews
January brings cooler temperatures to Dallas (though still a Texas winter). Whether you’re layering up or keeping it breezy, these top coffee spots will keep you warm on your next Dallas visit.
Weekend Coffee
Downtown
Nestled inside The Joule Hotel on Main Street, this trendy spot offers a relaxed setting for people‑watching before you head out to explore. With attentive service and expertly crafted cappuccinos, it’s an ideal way to start the day. Don’t miss their breakfast tacos, a tasty bonus that pairs perfectly with the coffee.
La Duni
North Dallas / Uptown
The Latin‑inspired favorite features an extensive coffee menu, showcasing beans from Colombia, Cuba, Brazil, Spain and beyond. Try the “Vaca Blanca,” a velvety mocha with chocolate sprinkles, espresso and cream, or the “El Guajiro,” a bold Caribbean‑style brew that delivers both strength and flavor.
Toasted Coffee
East Dallas / Lower Greenville
Order your coffee alongside one of their signature sandwiches or toasts, all baked in-house. The “Honey I’m Home” — a honey‑wheat bread topped with butter, peanut butter, honey and sea salt — is the perfect match for a chai tea latte.
Houndstooth Coffee
East Dallas / West Dallas
Grab a cold brew at the bar, then find a comfortable seat to enjoy a book or chat with friends. With locations in Sylvan 30 and the bustling Knox–Henderson corner, the welcoming space is ideal any time of day, any day of the week.
Zephyr Bakery Café
Oak Lawn
Located in the heart of Oak Lawn/Cedar Springs and the local LGBT entertainment district, this European‑style café serves outstanding coffee drinks. Whether you’re in for a quick espresso or an iced Italian roast from their Bristot beans, there’s a beverage to keep you moving.
Local Press + Brew
South Dallas
Step inside to a bright, airy space adorned with local artwork and Instagram‑worthy decor featuring succulents, canvas prints, and clean white walls. Order a nut‑shaken latte with homemade almond or cacao milk, then head to the patio. Don’t miss one of their refreshing glass‑bottled juices, like the popular Kessler Park blend.
