22 Best Coffee Shops near Brighton

“I ordered McDonalds meal through Doordash. The price was great for what I ordered. It was a value meal. 2 cheese burgers 20 piece nugget and 2 fries all for under 15 bucks so that was a steal. Only complaint I have is my food was slightly cold. But it was 80% better than the last time I ordered from there. The last time the food was so horrible I threw It in garbage. So I'm assuming they are under new management. It was not the Doordasher driver fault as I live like 4 or 5 mins away.“

“I heard about this place, I love the modern mixed with historic aesthetics. At first I was like hmm they don’t seem to friendly. But God! I tried the Bergamot tea which was so good with peppermint & honey. The owner was so friendly. He even let me try a complimentary item off the menu. I was inspired by him sharing his journey into creating this business. Y’all go visit with him. Thank you Troy!!“

“The atmosphere is very good, the music isn't too loud, or too quiet. My iced hot chocolate was very tasty. My chocolate chip cookie was warm and delicious. The person at the counter was very personable. Definitely will come here again!“

“Located downtown with street parking. My family and I decided to go here for chocolate chai tea lattes, iced of course lol. Staff was friendly, not too busy on a Saturday morning I believe they had just opened. Inside was decorated nicely and very clean. We decided to take our drinks to go but I would definitely visit this location again.“

“You can't get any cozier than Seeds! I studied in the outdoor sofa area many-a-times during my senior year of undergrad. Nothing like an excuse to lay down on a comfy couch in public with a coffee by your side. Seeds is a great place that I honestly want to start going to more often! My one gripe is that the parking can be a bit upsetting when it's more packed, especially when I drive all the way there just to have to turn around and go elsewhere. Very nice coffee, but I oddly prefer their hot drinks to their iced drinks (shocker!) Every time I order an iced drink here I feel like there's too much syrup and the consistency doesn't sit right with me. Never had an issue with a hot latte!“

“If you're looking for a Birmingham coffee shop that also serves food, Honest is my go-to. Love the variety of menu items and I've enjoyed every drink I've gotten here. Plenty of room (although it can definitely get busy on the weekends) + they've rearranged their seating so you can find a spot to work alone more easily if you want!“

“We made a quick pitstop at this local coffee and sandwich shop. It's a cute converted shopping container with a wide array of sandwiches, coffees, snow cones and more! They even had dairy free milk options for your coffee. They were super friendly with a large parking lot shared by a grocery store. They had a small patio and games for kids.Great pit stop one mile from a local dog park too!“

“This place is an absolute gem! Super small and local establishment, they have delicious coffee and snacks, and the baristas (especially Bailey) are absolute masters of the craft!Definitely worth a stop and a chat! Bring your favorite book and enjoy the great atmosphere and awesome people!“

“This is the best coffee place in Birmingham. The coffee is incredible. Everyone who works there is enthusiastic but not pushy about it. It’s not unapproachable. You don’t have to be a coffee snob to go in there but the coffee is snob-level good.“

“This Santos is located in Uptown, which is most convenient for me. I like how sunny the place is and the fact that there's plenty of parking around. I got a blackberry fresca and it was delicious, not too sweet but still very flavorful. It was also light and refreshing, ideal for the hot Summer months ahead. Since this location is attached to a hotel, you never know who you may meet in there. I chatted with a pilot for a few minutes then got some work done on my laptop. As a remote worker, this is a nice place to come since they have food, drinks, WiFi, and plenty of outlets!“

“Fantastic coffee, quality merch, great owners, and an awesome little setup right in Old Town. If you aren't getting your coffee beans or morning coffee from this spot and you are in the area, you should start very soon. I've been frequenting this spot since they opened after relocating from the Denver area. Has yet to let me down.“

“We discovered this coffee shop while visiting Birmingham for a couple days. The coffee is excellent - smooth, rich without acidic after taste. They even made me a flat white! Delicious brown sugar scone. The ambiance is relaxing as a vibrant community gathering place.“

“Really nice, clean, and quaint place. Gives off Mom and Pop coffee shop with personalized service. Coffee is made fresh and they even have house specials. Would definitely recommend over Starbucks if you're looking for something more intimate.“

“Recommend.Prompt service on drinks and food orders.Yummy iced mocha.Veggie wrap tasted great.Not a big place, but a number of two-person tables inside and a few 2-top and 4-top tables outside.Terrific location across street from Railroad Park.“

“I LOVE this shop! I’ve been a customer for around 3 years. There are a ton of flavors of both shakes and teas. The owner and staff are fantastic and have developed friendships with so many of their regular customers. I love going in and several of them already know which tea I’m probably going to order. They have the absolute best protein shakes of any restaurant/shop I’ve been to. And the loaded teas not only have a ton of flavor options, they have caffeine level options along with add-ins such as extra hydration, collagen, etc. The shop also sells jewelry, bags, t- shirts, and other fun items. It’s fantastic to have such a great shop in McCalla!“

“My first time.I don't really know anything about this town however I do know it's important to know future visit!My God all that food on my plate!I ate all of it too...The coffee took me all the way into the am breakfast experance.....“

“My potatoes were SO flavorful that it was shocking- the chicken sausage patty was nice too. We loved the cinnamon pancakes and you can tell the biscuits are fresh. I’ve never had pork so flavorful that came with my friend’s Egg Cochon. I would order that dish just for the pork!!“

“Oh man where do I start??! The taste of this coffee is divine. The baristas are quick and kind, easily able to become your next besties. This place has not just coffee, but also REAL chai and REAL matcha from REAL ethical and sustainable sources. Need a snack? They’ve got everything from full breakfast meals to snacks before lunch to lunchtime sandwiches. All of this and it’s conveniently located in the downtown region center see you can pop by before doing your banking business! There anything more convenient or helpful??? You’ve got to try this place out I know you’ll fall in love with it <3“

“First time trying Daylight Donuts and was pleasantly surprised. They were fresh and very flavorful - both the donuts and apple fritter. Service was excellent. It's probably a good thing that this place is not closer to my house or I'd be tempted to grab a few donuts from here every day.“

“This was my 1st time trying the establishment. I ordered 3 Frappuccino caramel flavored drinks. It took about 10 to 15 minutes to receive my order, but the staff was so friendly, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I would definitely try this location again, especially since they were helpful during a critical time of waiting for a family member to come out of surgery. I appreciate their service“

“Specializing in Low Calorie, Low sugar, Low Carb, Hi-Caf, Hi-Flavor; Loaded Teas....Not really sure if there is tea in there or not. They also offer coffee and meal replacement shakes. Great service and consistent product. I recommend the "Hulk". But what ever you do, watch out for the Red Pole.“

“Here is why I rate them so high: First when I walked up to the area where they are serving it, I wait because of a customer they are talking to. While I wait, the lady infront of me has ALREADY ORDERED and I only have to wait about 1 second! As I start to walk up to one of the employees, he complements my shirt and immediately gets my order. He even adds "Take the time if you need it," and faces a little menu infrastructure of me on the counter. After ordering, he helps me with the cashier machine, and I obviously tip for how good my experience had been so far. I wait for about a minute until he signals me over to get my order. In all, I am definitely going again, and as an added bonus, the TEA was amazing with so many options and combinations to choose from. [Even ones that are not Boba]Kid-friendliness: I could see them being very kind to younger people!“
