Triumphs Espresso & Whiskey

Triumphs was a lovely location. It looked like they were setting up for live music when we stopped in. I ordered the hot chocolate which I find rarely good in “coffee shops”. However this hot chocolate was excellent! It came out beautifully, temperature was perfect and the foam was SO good!

This whiskey coffee bar is a hidden gem that deserves all the stars! From the moment I walked in, the vibe was unbeatable—warm, inviting, and effortlessly stylish. The blend of rich coffee aromas and the subtle smokiness of aged whiskey creates an atmosphere that’s both cozy and sophisticated. What truly sets this place apart is the staff. Knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely friendly, they made me feel like a regular even on my first visit. Whether you’re craving a velvety latte in the morning or a smoky old-fashioned (with a coffee twist!) at night, this spot nails it every time.

A place with great atmosphere and contemporary decor. The bar stands out as you walk in as it's very lively. We enjoyed the live jazz music as the musicians were very talented and dynamic. The cocktails are great, I had the Sour Negroni and the Smooth Operator. Something to improve was the service as it took a while for the staff to acknowledge our presence and take our order and then there was a delay with the drinks.

My type of place. Omg!!!!! I have been missing out!!!! My brother R. Holis has been trying to get me here for a year. Well, I finally made it and I’ll be returning over and over and over again. My chicken tortilla soup was nice fresh and served HOT as soup should be served. I’ve had two cocktails so far. The Botanica and a H something spritzer. Both cocktails were top notch. Drinks are made with great intention and detail. I mean I’m hooked!! Espresso martini will be my night cap as I jam to the music once it starts. I may update you all on that. What keeps the service for being 5 stars for me is, I would like to add that while the servers are all very friendly. It would be nice to be greeted/acknowledged upon arrival. This was my first time. I also met a few other ladies who asked me how it works far as being served. It was their first time as well. I shared with them to go to the bar to place their order. I raved over everything I had. They placed similar orders and are also enjoying! Great place all overall!

I was looking for a place to have coffee while waiting to pick up my daughter and triumphs looked really cool. I am glad that I went. They make a good flat white! Lots of espresso coffees available. Although I couldn’t enjoy it, their bar was awesome. They have an amazing bourbon selection. Their cocktails looked amazing and their bar staff were attentive. I will definitely be back when I visit Dallas

Hidden gem in the design district with indoor and outdoor seating. Some of the most creative drinks I’ve seen, similar to Native Coffee or Asian boba spots. Lots of outlets available as well as WiFi. They use Edison coffee roasters for all their coffee and have a number of non-caffeinated and matcha options. You can tell a lot of work is put into creating the best beverage and vibe. Would highly recommend for the drinks; food itself seemed mid. Good for gatherings — outside area has connect 4 and inside has board games.

What a fantastic place. Went on a Thursday night and they had some musicians playing. They were pretty good. We enjoyed the sound. The drinks were amazing. The staff were super friendly. Decided to head back the next morning for breakfast to try some food. And that was also amazing. Will definitely return to this place. And everyone else should as well.

I went at kind of an off hour so maybe my experience wasn't typical, but service was sub par. The barista was having a conversation with a woman for several minutes while I waited. Fine, I'm not in a hurry. I ordered and sat and waited for my drink. I watched a couple come in and wait to be noticed so they could order. Then they struggled with what to order because the menu wasn't clear or complete. The barista helped them through and they sat at the bar. I had considered going to ask about my drink because it had been a while, maybe they forgot? But my coffee finally came out and was brought to me. That was the best part of the customer service, I had expected to have to go get it from the bar. My boyfriend came in and wanted to order but struggled like the couple because of the menu issue. The young man who brought out my coffee showed him a QR code to scan. My boyfriend ordered an old fashioned and it was delicious. The coffee was great and the atmosphere was very nice. My guess is that, aside from the menu issue, the drink drink delays came from the staff preparing for their evening shift. Staff was setting up lighting, shifting seating, preparing the kitchen, etc. I'd come back during their peak hours to experience it as it should be. I'd also like to try the Kyoto style coffee. Not many places have it!

I swing by this place every time we are in the Design District, I'm a huge fan! Love the interiors, great place for a meeting, or to just hangout. Pointers 1. The peanut butter protein mocha is more like an ice mocha (summer special menu ) 2. The coconut mint Kyoto is creamy cold foam on black iced coffee 3. There food is not disappointing 4. There is great seating to hangout and even area suitable to work. 5. Outside seating is available, well thought out and great space for groups. Not temperature controlled (as of now in the summer, not sure in the cooler months though) Service is kind and cool!

They've updated their website to include kitchen times and I haven't seen the female barista mentioned in my previous review since. I've stopped by for lunch a few times now. I've tried the grilled cheese with soup (both chicken tortilla and tomato bisque options) combo multiple times, along with the chipotle turkey club, orange dreamsicle matcha, salted maple matcha, and the apple pie chai. Everything was delicious, except for the chicken tortilla soup, which was mediocre. The tomato bisque was the highlight, and the apple pie chai even more so. There are still some minor inconsistencies that should be easy fixes. For one, there are some items listed on the website that aren't on the in-store printed menu, and the pricing for the cheese & soup combo was a dollar more than what's listed on the website.

Ive been here a couple of times now and have gone in and sat to work, food and drinks are amazing as well as the night live events. Majority of the bartenders are wonderful, however I have noticed a consistent mediocre customer service from a young red haired girl named Jordan or Jordyn? It's absurd to think that as I go up to the bar, IM having to do the customer service part. I've sat a couple of times in there to see a consistent behavior from her and to put it bluntly, it seems her behavior could be tied to blunt racism. I've noticed her outstanding customer service for ethnicities and races such as hers, yet mid unwelcoming service for African Americans and Hispanics. I have nothing but good things to say about the place, food, events, and drinks and will continue to come for that,. On Mondays and Tuesdays where there is only one barista/bartender on staff, if I do see that young woman I will walk out.

Super cute cafe that turns into a bar at night. The decor is really cute, it seems like a nice place to set up remote work during the day. They have some live music on the weekends as well. The cold brew was super yummy and I can't wait to go back and try some other coffee as well.

Amazing jazz bands playing at this place! Food is good. They have a schedule posted a week in advance. Please bring Brasuka to play there.

Coffee and Cocktails in the Dallas Design District Nestled on a quiet street in the Design District, this bar offers a delightful taste of classy cocktails right in the heart of the city. We embarked on a tour of the best espresso martinis in town, and this place certainly impressed. We sampled both the traditional espresso martini and a unique bourbon pecan version, with the latter being a standout favorite. The bartenders here are exceptional, providing top-notch service that rivals a five-star boutique bar. Sitting at the bar added to the experience, allowing us to engage with the skilled mixologists. Our visit coincided with a night of live jazz music, which elevated the atmosphere to another level. While indoor seating is limited, there's ample patio space available--though the setting might not be the main attraction. Instead, the bar fosters a warm and inviting environment perfect for great conversations with friends. On the flip side, parking can be a bit tricky when the bar is busy, and on our visit, the food options were limited. This could be a drawback for those looking for a more substantial meal, but the overall experience more than makes up for it.

Cute coffee shop. The decor is very eclectic and homely. The server was very friendly and even invited us to return for a live band in the evening. Coffee was not that strong but tasted pretty decent and sandwich was ok as well. Overall 7/10 I would go back for the live band and vibes when I get the chance.

Had a nice selection of drinks and some sandwiches. Kyoto cold brew was very strong and the strawberry matcha was good. The sandwich was good as well. Very nicely decorated and free parking, lots of people were here just chatting and it wasn't too loud. The waiters were nice and brought you the drinks and food wherever you were sitting. Pretty expensive though. Would probably go again, even if not to buy anything.

Triumphs is weekend vibes all over. I came Friday evening with my friends to catch up and celebrate a birthday. We were just in time because the band was rehearsing for the evening performance. The setting was on point with the dim lit bar and couch area. Our server Alyssa greeted us right away after we sat down and kindly provided her recommendations on drinks based on my tastes. I started with a refreshing Whiskey Sour based. Love the homemade sour mix and egg white foam. Their chocolate chip cookie was to DIE for. It was finely crispy on the outside, moist and fluffy with a rich chocolate taste. I don't care how many calories it was. I would definitely eat it again. I'm definitely impressed how equally attentive Alyssa was to all the guests as it was a busy night. She remembered where I was sitting even though I moved around the venue. The ease of parking was the cherry on top for me. No valet and no tight street parking makes my next visit just as easy!

Great vibes in here! Really great space to hang out in groups, nice large couches, great natural lighting. Decent iced coffees, but kinda pricey

Always a joy to visit here! What a unique, relaxing and uplifting place. We love coming for coffee, jazz and the good vibes! :-)

This is a really cute and pretty large place to come grab a drink. I came for the espresso and tried their seasonal iced lemon pound cake latte. It was very unique and well done, super refreshing for these 100° days we've been having. I'll be back to try more of their menu!

Amazing drinks that are reflected in their prices. Top coffee place of 2023 for me! It also doubles as a bar! Lovely atmosphere, definitely a great place to hang out with friends. There is also games outside that you could play. Service is great as well!

Enjoyed this spot on a Saturday night. The jazz music was wonderful. All if the staff were very friendly and kind. Truly enjoyed my drink - DOUBLE SMOKED OLD FASHIONED ($22 but well worth it). I had two of them! I also split a chocolate chip cookie ($6). Everything was very well crafted. You can tell that the menus are intentional and made with love because there was something special about everything. The cookie was not just an ordinary chocolate chip cookie. This place is special! I look forward to coming back for breakfast or lunch and definitely jazz and drinks again. Free parking - yay!

Place has a great ambience, it's very industrial modern. I was intimidated first impression but bartenders baristas make you feel welcomed. Gage was the one behind the bar first time I went and explained the menu thoroughly and took his time and mentioned live nights. Friends and I came the following day and he greeted us in a friendly manner. This has become our hangout spot after that. Alyssa, Pat, and robert were also very accommodating and kind. Francisco makes the meanest green salsa.

Neighborhood coffee shop that has live jazz music on weekend nights! They have a cute outdoor area with a view of the skyline, with games like Jenga and tic tac toe. The jazz music was amazing! The drinks were a bit on the pricey side, but made well.

When I heard about a new jazz espresso and whiskey bar in town I KNEW I had to go. I LOVE jazz, and I LOVE espressos and cocktails. The hummus board was wonderful, the hummus was REALLY good. It wasn't too savory or too bland, it was perfectly balanced. The veggies that came with it were fresh and seasoned to taste. The cocktails were yummy! VERY strong, but very yummy. The mezcal definitely had me feeling some sort of way LOL. El Coyote (the yellow drink) was Smokey, fruity, and strong -- the First Kiss (my friend's drink) was fruity, strong, and SPICY (due to the jalapeño). The service was wonderful, all of the staff and bartenders were very attentive and got things to us in a timely manner despite the crowd/busyness. Lots of people socializing, lots of people ENJOYING the music (it was AMAZING, the performers we had this night was SO good), and people working on laptops/studying! A good mix of all sorts of people. I will be back again :)

Harsh interaction experienced at Triumph Coffee on April 18th, 2024, at 1:15 p.m. Despite having just purchased a latte, I was rushed out the door because I was eating a cup of soup. I don't drink coffee on an empty stomach, and Triumph's food didn't appeal to me at the moment. The way this person handled the situation was crude and unprofessional. One possibility was to note that I had a large number of items on hand and offer to help me take the drink outside. Another wonderful alternative was to offer to make a fresh replacement when I returned. In any event, anything other than what was done and in a courteous, not condescending manner, would've been the appropriate thing to do. As newer customers, my partner and I had previously made multiple purchases in a single visit and wanted to do so again on this occasion. We'll skip the jazz night that we were going to try. Unfortunately, after wasting 15 minutes getting here, I had to quickly reconsider why I came and whether it was worthwhile. I walked away since the environment was so unwelcoming. Thankfully, my partner, who was meeting me after work, hadn't gone too far and could come pick me up. Instead, we chose Houndstooth Coffee since we knew it would have a friendlier, more pleasant atmosphere, and it did. There's no reason I should've been put on the spot in that manner when there were more polite solutions. It's bad when you compliment someone's hair and they not only don't hear you, but also point dismissively at the water station to get you out of their hair. I guess I should've seen it coming, but, if you're this busy and having a bad day (which is understandable), consider that that making things worse doesn't lighten the load. I wished that person a better day than they were having. Online feedback suggests that this isn't just one person's bad day, but rather a company culture issue that leads to employee unhappiness; take care of your people, and they'll take care of you. Anyways, what an avoidable moment in today. This is no longer a space I wish to be in or support. I'll continue to support other local specialty coffee shops, as well as Rex's Seafood and Market. There are better options, and if you're searching for a shop near Dallas, I fully recommend visiting Full City Rooster! Such places are becoming increasingly rare. They close earlier in the day, but the quality, civility, and meaningful conversations are unparalleled. LDU is a different favorite for on-the-go. They are also lively and uplifting. Kindly verify that my refund is processed.

Loved everything about this place! I went solo but quickly found company at the bar. Cocktail was on point and I had the most amazing cookie. The live music was the icing on the cake. Great date night or solo adventure.

Alright, this brand new business surprised me quite a bit. Been living nearby and just found out they opened up their storefront around the end of 2022, and wow does this model exceed expectations. Located near the intersection of Manufacturing Street & Irving Boulevard in the Design District, Triumphs Espresso & Whiskey Bar provides a unique ambiance complete with Live Music, a Supper Club, and they even serve as a Groups Events Venue. Most importantly thought, they know how to make some incredible coffee and offer one of the most expansive and tasty bourbon selections I've seen in all of DFW - and that includes many bars I've visited. Their classic menu for espresso/coffee includes: brewed coffee, espresso, cortado, cappuccino, mocha, Fiat white, matcha latte, and more! They even have a rotating seasonal menu - I highly suggest the "Everything Nice" which Donavan had recommended (S/O to Donavan for being incredibly helpful, friendly, and a great host that cares about making some dang good coffee!). Triumphs adds a unique twist - they'll serve you coffee in a whiskey class... truly unique and I loved it. They regularly bring in a live band, even jazz nights! Honestly, this is a perfect addition to the Design District and whether you're in downtown, bishop arts, or even Fort Worth ... you'll want to make a trip to visit this newly opened location which is yet another major hit brought to you by the same owner of State Street Coffee in Uptown & La Reunion in the Bishop Arts District. Tell you what, this owner knows how to create a great business - well done! This is a great place to work, hit up for a coffee date, swing by for a midday pick me up, and even enjoy later in the night for a good drink and live music. Trust me, you'll be coming back.

This place is really magical. I met an old friend here I've known since 2015 and I had no idea. She suggested Triumphs, aptly named for multiple reasons. I think I saw an old Triumph Motorcycle and I love the synonym for "achievement." I went around 10:00 AM on a winter day, so the ambiance inside with was and warm with the Sun greeting us as we sipped our drinks. Bobby, an amazing barista, with hidden ink (tattoos) I loved had the perfect suggestion for me this morning. A soothing Jasmine Green Tea with honey. I didn't think of the honey, but Bobby knew me, a newbie and stranger, well. I am grateful because it was one of the best teas I've had. I could also tell the quality was A+ by the way the upscale tea bag looked. I'm only here for a short time visiting family for Thanksgiving, but you're damn sure I will be back. Next time I'll choose an evening celebration with one of their Rye Old Fashion drinks.

Obsessed with this place! Great coffee and atmosphere. We came on a Saturday afternoon for a quick coffee. There are plenty of seating options at the bar, inside at tables, or outside on their patio. Great place to study or catch up with friends. Will definitely have to come back in the evenings for drinks and to check out the live music!

Great place to work on stuff. They serve breakfast and lunch items that are just great. Really clean atmosphere and fun to be in. I've spent half a day in here no problem working on stuff and felt like I had everything I needed to stay all day and work on stuff, getting quality food and coffee throughout the day. I would love to come back for the live music and cocktails one night.

I came on a Friday to see my boyfriend play. This is definitely a high end bar. The drinks start at $13 but I didn't mind. It seems like they have coffee throughout the day but at night are a bar. The vibe was super calm and chill in here. They had the best bartenders in here that were great at making the experience unique. Their drinks are small but super cute. I got to order the Birria tacos and they were delicious. I would rate them a 7/10. They just needed to be more crispy in my opinion. I met the owners and they were great! Super nice people and this definitely a place to try out.

This was a cute little find! We went on a Friday evening. There were live musicians. The space is small and intimate so it was a bit crowded but fun nonetheless. We sat outside where we could still hear the music. The drinks are good but very small for the price. I had the last first kiss or something like that. The cookie is a must have! They should seriously consider shipping them. I woke up the next day thinking about that cookie lol this is an adorable spot and definitely cute for a date night. They had games outside too. The server was very nice.

Went October 9th. Fantastic place that has a quiet chill vibe during the day. I had the grilled cheese with bacon and tomato basil soup which was reasonably priced. I also had the everything nice coffee drink and espresso martini. Being the sister bar to la reunion this place is a step up in terms of food and the drinks are more catered to someone who likes whiskey and bourbon like me. Service was outstanding and I will have to go back again to sample more of their menu.

Great atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating! Perfect for studying and getting work done with their multiple coffee drinks, or perfect for getting a drink after work. Service was great and very fast. They have plenty of wall outlets indoors, but I'm not sure about the outside patio. It was too hot the day I visited to sit outside, but that's where a majority of people were. There is a good amount of parking available just outside as well as across the street, especially during the weekend. I definitely see myself coming back!

Came here one evening before we had to head out to a 10pm comedy show. Just needed some caffeine so I didn't pass out during the show and decided to stop on in. I had a cortado(pictured) and a cold brew. The BF had a cappuccino and their warm old fashioned. They have a pretty good whiskey selection, including some allocated stuff! Place was pretty quiet and everyone there was super friendly, including the customers! Will definitely be back!

Went for one of their jazz nights. Cozy vibe. Great cocktails. Make sure to get there early, about 7:45 to get a seat. Its a small space.

It's never too late for coffee! I came here late and ordered an Irish coffee. You gotta try it. Great atmosphere for a late night drink.

Met my friend up before rock climbing for some coffee or caffeine and I came upon this quaint place. It's actually really aesthetic and boho chic. I got marche latte and my friend got herself a chai. We enjoyed every sip. Service was friendly and quick. Just order at the bar and they will bring you your drink. Check it out! It's awesome for bringing friends and family it yourself to study and do work, and great place for hanging out and going on dates. Till then, let's sip!!

My new favorite spot in Dallas ever since they've opened! I've been here several times since it opened and I'm conflicted about writing a review. Not because it's not worth checking out. Oh, quite the opposite. It's such a charming and chill spot and I don't want to share it for fear of getting the word out and it getting packed lol. But seriously, this is another gem that's popped up in the Design District that just presents a subdued coolness and flair that is perpetually in short supply. Drinks are on point, though I haven't been here early enough for one of their signature coffee drinks. Live jazz music at night, old school movies playing in the background, friendly staff and service. Really, what else could you ask for?

The most chill and inviting vibe. The bartenders were kind and the grilled cheese and soup was soul comforting. I will definitely be returning.

Awesome spot! I've been now for both coffee and whiskey service and have no complaints. Friendly staff and awesome space. I highly recommend stopping in for a cocktail on jazz nights (Fridays and Saturdays). I hope they are able to expand their food offerings a little further but will be back regardless.

The vibe of this place is on point. Live music, great cocktails, friendly bartenders,staff and the owners. Loved the concept of this place with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Visited at night for some drinks but will return again during the day for some coffee.

Great vibes! A beautiful and peaceful exterior with games and a great atmosphere inside. I love how flexible the space is to have a chill solo work time or hang out with your friends. When I was there the jazz band just started playing (Friday), and my friends and I ordered some cocktails. The First Kiss was well balanced and delicious. I hope this new business continues to thrive!

Such a cute spot and great for working or studying! The drink menu is super unique - I got "Mango Mother" which was cold brew with mango purée and lavender syrup. It was decently sweet, but I liked the flavors a lot! Another thing I liked about this place is that there's outlets everywhere, next to every booth. Will definitely be coming back to try some more.

Been here several times and have always loved it! Coming during the day? The chai tea latte is hands-down my favorite hot drink (not a coffee drinker, but I have been told the espressos are great as well). Coming at night? Try The Samurai! If you want something sweeter, ask for a Sleeping Beauty. Both are *chef's kiss* delicious! They've got a great little food selection, some super tasty mixed nuts, and such a relaxed atmosphere. Live music is played Friday and Saturday nights, and it's just such a neat vibe to hang out. The staff are all very nice, and make you feel well cared for. Already looking forward to my next visit!

Love this place! The drinks and food were delicious. The staff are super nice and attentive. We asked for extra crackers for the charcuterie board and they had no issue in giving them to us. Didn't even charge extra when other places totally would. Will definitely be coming back.

Love the decor and thrilled that Triumph Coffee opened up down the street from our office. The first several visits were pleasant and great; however today was a disappointing and bad experience. The employee (Marilyn) behind the register was unfriendly and unwelcoming. I requested a cup each of blueberries and yogurt. After I started to feel a lengthy wait time, since I believe almost 10 minutes. I asked if she would check how much longer before my order was complete. She proceeded to the kitchen and returned indicated that there were orders before mine and it would take another 5-10 minutes. I responded that it was simply blueberries and yogurt in (2) cups? She looked at me irritated as she walked back to the kitchen, returned and rudely placed the (2) cups on the counter in front of me. . .with an attitude as if I just inconvenienced her. Wow. . . not exactly the customer service I needed to experience at the start of my day.

The rudest staff. The concept of the place is cool but it is a very uncomfortable environment because of the workers. Food is ok.

It was a very nice place to hang out at with friends. They had both indoor and outdoor area. Outside had games you can play, inside they had live music, i went on a Friday. Service was great, our waitress was very friendly. I had the birria tacos and they were so good, they could have been better if the tortilla was a bit more fried. But overall I had a great time.

Stumbled into this place with a friend wanting coffee and cocktails. Ordered my first ever espresso martini here, and I think I got ruined - It was the best thing I've ever had (I have had other espresso martinis since then, this one still wins). We had great conversation while sitting at the bar with our bartender / barista, and got surprised with live jazz later in the evening. Definitely will be back!

Great experience. Enjoyed the staff and the drinks. I enjoyed the strawberry matcha that I had.

This is quickly becoming my new favorite place. Fantastic coffee in the mornings with ample seating and easy parking. Staff is always kind and fun to hang out with. Jazz nights with craft cocktails and big patio? What more could you ask for.

This is such a cute coffee place with tons of working space for everyone and well placed outlets plus great parking!! The interior is classy and modern. Th staff is very friendly and attentive, knows their coffee well. Just wish the music was a little quieter or without words which would make it perfect for reading or taking a call while working. We got the mango mother and a regular iced latte. The mango mother was delicious, perfect amount of sweet with a lingering coffee aftertaste. The latte was also really good and glad didn't taste like they just used a bunch of dark roast beans to make the coffee. Next to The Weekend in Dallas this place has the best latte in the area. Also got bacon egg and cheese & potato egg cheese breakfast tacos, proffered the one with bacon. Overall would love to come back here just to read, work, or grab some delicious coffee to go! Excited to come back and try more drinks.

What a great cafe, right at factory manufacturing district, friendly staffs, very chic neighborhood.

Went here to study with a friend for our medical licensing exams -- drinks were great and the birria tacos were also delicious! The aesthetics of the coffee shop are really beautiful to look at and the fact that there are multiple outlets to charge up your devices is a definite plus. Only piece of feedback would be to see if they could reduce the volume of the music just 1.5 notches lower -- the music made it a bit hard to have a conversation and also read a book. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family and come back again in the future.

I had the grilled cheese sandwich with the tomato basil soup, it was delicious and the service was great. It is a cool place to visit especially if you're a whiskey drinker, I had the smooth operator . I'm looking forward to going back when the weather is warmer, so I can take advantage of the outdoor games they had available.
