    I loved to have discovered this coffee shop a block from my work building so I can get my Matcha Latte partially sweetened with honey instead of the horribly sweetened version at Starbucks. I have tried their scones and they were delicious. The staff and friendly and the shop seems to always have available seats.

    Avocado toast and oat milk cappuccino is the way to go. Friendly folks that are crafting great concoctions, so worth the trip.

    This one was a miss for me. While the business totes a pride flag in the window which sounds great /accepting, they unfortunately fall short in accessibility. Not only do they not have wheelchair access from the street, but they also do not accept cash payments at all. This leaves their business not easily accessible to people with disabilities and completely inaccessible to young people without cards, a lot of homeless community members & lower income individuals. Of course there is a wheelchair accessible entrance due to ADA laws but you have to enter the building NJC is attached to through heavy double doors with no power open option and take an extremely inconvenient route that is not an option for people with different abilities without some help. I left 2 stars simply because the coffee was good, but customer service and the not so welcoming atmosphere will have me unlikely to return.

    Nice small place with good quality coffee. I tried one of their seasonal lattes and it was very good.

    Nice place. Good coffee but I wouldn't eat here again. Had a toast with jam and an avocado toast. The avocado came with onions, which wasn't said on the menu, and both toasts we're burned. The vibe is nice and the staff are friendly.

    Small coffee with open space in the city center. I was there on a Sunday, and ordered a cappuccino with oat milk and avocado toast/ bread. Me as a German I have some assumptions about bread in the us, but this "toast" was amazing - it even looked as it was a sourdough. The staff was very friendly and helpful, even asked if I liked the dry tomatoes (no) and pickled onion (do me a favour, and do this!) on the toast. One star less, because I wish for more diverse range of breakfast options.

    Amazing little coffee place in Downtown Charlotte, super friendly staff and the coffee and avocado toast were delish!

    The coffee is great! The reason I’m giving 4 stars only is because the pop music they’re playing here, is so incredibly loud, it’s almost impossible to work. So, if you just need a coffee on the go, I can highly recommend this place.

    The seasonal The Dolly is delicious with a subtle blueberry flavor. Spacious and well lit interior and convenient location. Perfect for an afternoon pick me up.

    Very pleasant going in but the coffe is not good. I have came in there twice and each time the coffee has not been good. This last time I got the cold brew with caramel. She add hot water to make the caramel melt after adding it to the cold brew it was awful.

    The space is light and airy with warm, blonde wood tones and fun, modern urban jazz-punk instrumentals play in the background. The baristas are friendly and patient, and the food is delicious. I had the lox toast and a cappuccino, and both were perfectly balanced in flavor and appropriate, light portions, and as aesthetically pleasing as they are scrumptious. If I'm in Charlotte again, I'll definitely come back.

    Title says it all. They practice exactly what they preach & it's much appreciated. Love the #counterculture movement. I got a mocha latte which was made to perfection! Service was good and vibes were awesome as well. I definitely recommend it.

    It was worth the walk to come here! The lavender honey latte is divine, so flavorful and very nice. The oat milk cappuccino was good but I preferred the lavender latte. You can get any hot drink, iced as well. There is only one size so you don’t have to deal with small, medium, large etc. drinks range in price from $4-$6. The avocado toast looked so good but I ran out of arms to carry it out, it would’ve been about $10. Would recommend and would come again! Sadly o finished my drink before I was able to snag a pic!

    We successfully ate here twice and got drinks twice, so four times. We've been three more times and have left without anything because they are literally always sold out now of the biscuit. The biscuit with jam and ricotta is the best. I know it's a smaller building but when you have a top selling item you should stock more of it. I'm going to give up even trying to come here anymore. I would have given 5 stars if I could ever get an order in anymore. The drinks are decent. I don't like coffee so I get hot chocolate. My fiance seems to enjoy the coffee. Just overall feels like a much too small location for what business they are doing.

    Love this place! I’ve been here a lot of times and it is always soo good. The staff is super friendly and their coffee is the best. Syrups are made in house and I love cookies so of course I had to get one of those too. They have other food/menu items also, their avocado toast is great.

    Switched up my morning routine and ordered a strawberry matcha iced bev. The presentation was nice and the drink was really good! It's a nice sized space with WiFi if you need a working space for a short while.

👍👍 Skeptical. I visited this place because of a research on brunch places in downtown. Ended here because of the Google rating. Almost Worth it! The Italian sausage hash was really good. But my spouse ordered an avocado toast and it lacked flavor. Also, the coffee was legit; really good! Also ordere...
