Downtown Birmingham + Parkside
Hands down my favorite spot for an iced strawberry matcha in Birmingham
Cala Coffee Downtown
Such cozy vibes — try one of their creative seasonal lattes or my go-to that's always on the menu, the black sesame and date
JUNE COFFEE
Some of the kindest owners! Note that there's only non-dairy milk options (the macademia milk is my favorite)
Grounds
My favorite drink here is the Alabama Stinger - an iced cappuccino shaken with Eastaboga honey!
Prevail Union | BHM
A truly gorgeous shop with some fun seasonal drinks. I also always love the iced chocolate milk drink, which is a latte made with their housemade chocolate milk!
East Pole Coffee Co.
Red Cat has two locations (one in Pepper Place and one in Parkside) and both are super cozy, comforting vibes. My go-to is the Iced Burmese latte!
Red Cat Coffee House, Birmingham, AL – Coffee For All
Avondale + 5 Points South
Unique + creative seasonal drinks and a ton of knowledge on coffee from the owner. Plus, the shop is beautiful and full of plants and greenery!
Punch Love Coffee
Located in a bar, this coffee shop has great drinks and a fun, vibrant energy. Retro vibes + board games and video games everywhere.
Domestique Coffee - Satellite (Avondale)
One of the coziest coffee shops to curl up and read a book, with drinks that are made with housemade syrups!
FILTER-Coffee Parlor
Homewood
Perfect spot to work from home or read a book for a few hours. Get their latte flight to try a few different flavors!
Honest Coffee Roasters & Açaí Cafe
Cozy cozy vibes in a beautiful house with a seasonally changing menu
Caveat Coffee
Another Domestique location, but this one shop shares with Cahaba Cycles. It's a great place for some light people watching!
Domestique Coffee - Dawn Patrol (Homewood, AL)
O'Henry's is a quintessential Bham coffee shop — honestly, sometimes their coffee leans too sweet for me, but I ask for a hot latte with half the syrup and love the cozy vibes!
