36 Best Coffee Shops near Center Point

“I’m not a coffee drinker. But a local chef(shout out to Whitney Simone!) I follow and patronize raved about Rochelle’s grit bowl, so I decided to try breakfast here. I wished that it was advertised that breakfast was sold here because I always thought this place was just a coffee spot. Anyway, I was sooooo impressed with the cuteness of the decor inside. It felt very cozy and intimate. Soft music played in the background. I love the branding on the cups and other merchandise for purchase. Upon entering, my friend and I were greeted warmly. We placed our orders and found a place to sit. The seats were comfy and a bright red that matched the theme of it also being a lounge. There was a little free library where you could take home a free book. There were several small tvs available to watch. Our food came out after a short wait. Yall….my grit bowl was absolutely splendid! The grits were creamy and perfect- not too thick, not too thin. The meats were delicious as were the eggs. My friend enjoyed his pancakes but also wanted to try the grit bowl after hearing me rave about mine. After he devoured his, he agreed that it was just as good as I told him it was. My peach smoothie came in this cute little sealed cup with the branding on it. I love a business that doesn’t skip on the branding! I enjoyed my experience here 100% and I’m even thinking of returning tomorrow morning for breakfast! One thing I would improve: I hope the owners consider advertising that they sell breakfast as well. Folks like me that may not be coffee drinkers but who love breakfast will gladly patronize the business…if we know they sell more than coffee. Overall, this place earned my 5 stars.“

“I actually really like this location and the drinks are great but only this time they filled my drink up with ice to where the ice was touching the top of my lid which left very little juice so next time just not so much ice I barely had any juice in cup. Other than that nice place“

“My partner and I were in town from California and this place is the ticket for true coffee consumers. Clean space with a great vibe . The coffee is fantastic and the staff is spot on and friendly. Can t wait to return. Thanks guys“

“Great place to hang out and work/study! Great staff and delicious coffee plus try a homemade poptart if available!“

“As soon as I walked in they punched me....with love and the best coffee experience I've ever had. Punch Love continues to exceed expectations in customer service & sweet beans.

I love the vibe - open to where you don't feel like you're touching shoulders with strangers, yet still cozy with plants & local art.

I've been coming by at least 3 days a week for the past month. I feel my money is well spent and appreciated at Punch Love. Quality is truly unmatched!“

“My first visit was today and I loved it! This place is so cute and the coffee is delicious. I will be returning soon!!!“

“One of the best white mochas I’ve had in a long time. My mom got a London fog and my grandma got a vanilla latte. We each ordered a different type of toast. Everything was delicious and fantastic! Next time I’m in town, I will be coming back here!“

“Bought my first bag today. Bought the Honduras Ground Bag! Delicious! The Owner was very knowledgeable, and so sweet! I learned a few things and I've been making coffee for years! And they deliver fresh ground ! Great Coffee Experience ☕️😋“

“This place has such a great vibe! The coffee itself is not the greatest compared to other coffee shops but it's still good. The atmosphere is so fun! Very nostalgic with all the old retro video games. They have so many board games, gaming set ups, XL checkers, etc. it was very busy and seemed to be super popular spot!“

“Awesome addition to the Crestwood neighborhood!“

“Beautiful little spot to shop, sip, and socialize! I had been in here once before, a few years ago, and they were still developing their style as a coffee place, but they've definitely found their niche, and it is amazing! Their flavor add-ons are inventive - the barista suggested their Herbalicious, a blend of lavender, rosemary, mint, and thyme, with vanilla syrup, and it was such a soft, delicate flavor that was sweet, herbal, and delicious, and truly shone through in a creamy oat milk latte, which I did not expect. I tried a couple of their bonbons, and they are well worth the price; the sea salt caramel was gooey, salty, and sweet, while the strawberry lemon is a revelation of flavor. It's an added bonus that the coffee and the other ingredients are sustainably sourced and dietary restriction friendly, the atmosphere and character of the entire place are eclectic and creative, and the baristas were so patient and helpful. Truly, a must-see place for anyone wanting a unique and beautiful experience in the Magic City!“

“Arrived appx 8:45a on a Sunday, no wait for a table and service was prompt. Coffee and breakfast came out quickly and was delicious! I had biscuits with chorizo gravy, roasted red peppers (not spicy) and fried eggs. Great job, Frothy Monkey!“

“An incredible opportunity to live here!!“

“Delicious breakfast in a casual atmosphere!“

“Lively! I am not from Birmingham but I am a coffee lover. From Orlando but, I wanted to see something new for a change from the normal city life. Noticed there were allot of coffee shops here than in any city I’ve been to which made it hard to decide on which one I liked to visit more but something about the atmosphere caught my attention. It was quite which made it easier to work. The environment even though it was quiet it felt inviting. The glass made allot of natural light come in and I loved being able to enjoy a good view while working. I definitely would come again even if it’s to relax. Unfortunate I’m not from here. Anyone who enjoys coffee I highly recommend to come here.“

“Super good coffee at reasonable prices with ultra friendly staff!! The building looks like you're about to walk into a bank accidentally but if you believe in yourself and keep walking then you'll make it to the coffee shop and it's a really nice spot to chill and hang out!“

“Great place to do Pilates 💛“

“I recently had gastric sleeve surgery and have had a terrible time trying to find stuff to drink that is calorie free and no artificial sweeteners. A friend suggested that I try the tropical tea. I did and I was hooked!! Their customer service is amazing and when my order was put on back order, they were so friendly and did everything they could to get my order pushed through.“

“The best place to study in Birmingham“

“I stopped by Hello Bakery and was blown away by their delicious croissants—but what really stood out was the owner's kindness! I bought four pastries, and to my surprise, they gifted me a free almond croissant! 😍

Croissant Quality:
The croissants here are perfectly flaky, buttery, and freshly baked. The plain croissant had a crisp exterior with soft, airy layers inside, while the almond croissant (my free treat!) was rich, slightly sweet, and packed with crunchy almond goodness. Absolutely delicious!

Customer Service:
The owner was warm and welcoming, and the free croissant was such a lovely gesture. It’s rare to find a bakery that cares so much about making customers happy!

Final Thoughts:
If you want top-tier croissants and a bakery that goes above and beyond, Hello Bakery is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back—maybe they’ll surprise me again! 😉 Highly recommend! 🥐💛“

“just nowI was visiting the Birmingham Airport in Alabama and ordered 2 coffees from terminal C and I spilled one of my entire coffees right in front of the store. Quickly an employee sweet as can be came out and helped me clean up while the other employee remade my coffee for FREE without me asking!! It is my first flight and my nerves are shot and this act of kindness from both of your employees made my day better. Thank you starbies!!“

“The Cedar House Cafeteria has been in business fourty-nine years in the same location. Throughout the years there have been changes made here and there but the quality of the food and service has always been
remarkable. Stop by and enjoy this iconic landmark and see for yourself what has kept the doors
open all this time. Delicious food, prompt friendly service all at a great price. You will become a regular Cedar House patron too!!“

“I recently added a review about being overcharged. It was a mistake on my part. I was so distracted that I forgot I asked for a $10 cash back. I hope it didn’t cause the young lady any animosity at work. This was indeed a mistake and oversight on my part. She was very gracious today and didn’t have to be.“

“Santos Coffee in Hoover offers a unique “crop-to-cup” experience, sourcing beans directly from their family-owned farms in Guatemala. This commitment to quality is evident in their diverse menu, which includes signature drinks like the Basil Lavender Latte, Café Nutella, and a variety of crepes and sandwiches.“

“Quick order ahead service!“
