50 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.“

“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“

“Friendly staff and customer service is wonderful. Drinks are unique and they are always coming up with new seasonal flavors. We love you guys.“

“Been meaning to try this place out for a while, and finally had the time to today! Such a cute atmosphere, the staff was super friendly, and the service was quick! Not terribly crowded at all, and everyone there was just chill and having a good time by the looks of it. I will be returning when I can! The iced coffee I got was also very scrumptious, just what I needed this morning ^^“

“Love this gems from walking in , friendly service and quality. Jalapeño bagel was yummy and my latte was perfect . I forgot to ask to make it less sweet, but it was perfect like I want it too.“

“What a great find today in Birmingham. The BLT made with Milk bread was great!!!! Girl! The white chocolate bread pudding with strawberries and rhubarb totally off the chain. Finished with a delicious cup of black coffee. Get yourself there now you’ll enjoy it.“

“I had a hot mocha that Mitchell made really sweet just like I wanted it!!🙂 We're already "fammy" and wish them the best! P.S. The homemade baked goods are amazing!!❤️❤️“

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

“Really great local coffee shop!

Decent coffee, cozy vibes, and really nice baristas.

I love the art everywhere from local artists. You can tell they’re putting in a lot of effort to be apart of the community.

I also appreciated the toys they have available for little kids.

Great spot to study or meet with a friend!“

“Great place to do Pilates 💛“

“Awesome addition to the Crestwood neighborhood!“

“An incredible opportunity to live here!!“

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

“It was our first visit to Lee’s and we will be back! The staff was incredibly welcoming upon entering, answered all my questions, and gave me a great suggestion for a BYOL. I got banana and dulche and it was divine! A little sweet but the espresso was still there and delightful. My friend got a blackberry cobbler latte and I tried theirs, will be getting that our next visit, AMAZING. Opal also enjoyed her pup cup and the staff were so kind even though she was a little rambunctious. The patio was perfectly shaded, and the inside of the shop was so neat. 10/10!! So glad we stopped in today.“

“I had an incredible experience today with Grounds Coffee! Expertly crafted coffee and baristas that made me feel like family!“

“The coffee was more bitter than sweet. The avocado toast was excellent!!! 10/10. They need to add more for the smaller toddlers in the play room and when I visited lots of older children were playing ruff in the area. I also wish they would extend there hours, they close too soon in the evenings.“

“Very great ice cream and great people. Would highly recommend stopping in!!“

“Great atmosphere. So glad there's another place like this in Birmingham! Great Coffee, great pastries, and fantastic entertainment. Can't wait to come back for a show to try some of their cocktails! After hearing about the owners sister who was killed by a metra train, it's so inspiring to see her keep thriving and keeping her sister's memory alive. ❤️❤️“

“This coffee is located inside the Region's center downtown and open to the public. The ladies who run and manage the place are amazing and always have a smile on their faces. The coffee and treats are sweet. If you don't know what to choose, they are more than welcome to recommend a drink based on what you like. Keep up the good work ladies.“

“Staff is very friendly and helpful. Always have pleasant conversations while waiting for our drinks with the team here. Coffee and energy chillers are always good. Even though our order is the same every time we go the sweetness/flavor varies, sometimes I taste no flavoring in our drinks, sometimes it's really pronounced - even though we always just get the normal amount.“

“Delicious breakfast in a casual atmosphere!“

“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.“

“My favorite local restaurant- delicious food, atmosphere and staff exceptional, and also fun to shop for unique gifts.“

“Great tiny local bakery with some absolutely killer pastries when you're craving a little something sweet. We've had the croissants, pecan sticky buns, and fruit danishes - and all have been great. Every time we go we've tried something different and nothing is ever short of quality. Very small interior, basically just room for a few people to stand and the counter - but we don't really care about sitting inside, just be aware if that's your plan - there's no seating. Ladies behind the counter are always patient and kind.“

“Great little place right outside the Hilton. Awesome breakfast options as well as lunch, should have swung by there for dinner also. Got the blazer toast and a large white mocha iced latte, both outstanding. Really liked their toast bar as well as the multiple bakery options. Definitely going to stop by next time. I’m in Birmingham again.“

“I usually enjoy 7 Brew drinks, but my recent visit was disappointing. The server brought my drink out while digging in his mouth, which felt unprofessional and unhygienic. Handling drinks while touching your face can make customers uneasy, especially when it comes to food safety. I hope management addresses this so future visits feel cleaner and more professional. Overall the drinks are great, but the service experience needs improvement.“

“Colette was a very good server. Food was above average. Bloody Mary wasn't worth the $10.00. However, we get our bill and we are being charged $2.00, a piece, for a biscuit..... WTH??? The menu never mentioned an additional charge for a biscuit, toast, or etc... I even told the brunette waitress that looked like a manager but she was probably the dishwasher. We love the Frothy monkey too but I think you just lost some customers. PM me if like“

“Excellent cafeteria style food! Love the hamburger steak, the sausage with kraut, and the baked catfish! Always plenty of great sides to go with them. Great food and great people! They've been a staple of Tarrant for at least 30 years, probably longer!“

“The best place to study in Birmingham“

“Great experience! The barista Becca was so friendly and very helpful! 10/10 recommend!“

“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.“

“Highly recommend visiting, trying the baked treats and coffees. Delicious😋“

“just now I 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!!“

“Nice location, and very nice staff. I spent about $20 for a specialty drink + a nice sized sandwich + tip. Coffee selection is very basic, they have a few fun/seasonal drinks but nothing crazy or exciting. Food menu is also simple, and I don’t think I saw any prices listed on the TV screen for the food items. I did like that my sandwich was made to order—already better than Starbucks!“

“I am a 7 Brew lover and have been for awhile now. I basically begged the mayor for one here. I’m so happy that we finally have a location closer so I don’t have to drive 30 mins one way for a drink. Yes, this one is a little slow.. but I don’t mind the wait. I can see how that would be annoying for some people though. It has definitely gotten better recently. I go to 7B pretty much every day, sometimes twice a day and enjoy talking to the employees that I see regularly 😃“

“The guy at the window was super friendly and made my morning! Sorry I didn’t get your name😊 Fantastic service and drinks this morning!!“

“Stopped here for espresso and a coffee. The employees were very friendly and the space is large with a lot of seating. It looks like this building used to be a Pizza Hut or China Buffet and they repurposed it.

Big outdoor seating, plenty of parking. I ordered a hot mint latte with oat milk and my husband ordered a decaf Cortado. The coffee is my mint latte is mild, tasted a little watered down. My husband said his Cortado was good, better than Starbucks.“

“great doughnuts would try again“

“My first time to order a coffee at the "new" Starbucks inside the remodeled Target. Starbucks was moved over to what was once the small in-store snack/cafeteria and it also got a nice remodel,. I ordered a regular coffee and the server asked if I wanted a flavor with it so I asked for vanilla and the drink was great - I really liked it as I have found most "regular" coffees in Starbucks are too bitter for my taste and required me to add much cream. This new Starbucks is nice, clean and lighting is great.“

“as far as the Buddhist 8 fold path applies. I believe everyone at Starbucks and Starbucks corporation has right lively hood. a righteous way to make a living.“

“buenos productos de calidad“

“Open room, no booths or privacy, but very clean and stylish. The food was excellent, except the "spinach" salad actually came as spring greens and I personally would have preferred the spinach as described. Our server was OUTSTANDING, one of the best we've ever had, don't remember his name, but it was Sunday evening 2/15/26.“

“The triple berry matcha is soooo good, but was a bit heavy on the ice today. The employee was working alone and still learning the new drink recipes so it took a while. Saturday Target foot traffic on a Saturday morning is hard to manage with one person. She was very nice but there was definitely a backlog.“

“This past Saturday, I had the pleasure of going to The Toasted Yolk Cafe. This place really impressed me from the time I walked in the door to the time I left. Walking in, the place was booming and busy, but we were seated within minutes. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. I loved the painted walls they had a mural-like feel to them. The staff was great. I sat and observed everyone for a while, including the owner and two managers, and man, what a great team. This is a fantastic Black-owned business that deserves to be packed every day I mean, a line out the door! Now, let’s get into the food. Since this is a brunch place, I naturally had to order from both menus! The first dish I ordered was the bacon cheeseburger. Let me start off by saying you get what you pay for here. The prices are reasonable and affordable, and the portion sizes are huge! Now, back to the burger this thing was massive and juicy, even with it being cooked well-done (my fault, I didn’t specify medium-well). It was still good nonetheless. Not much more to say about it, but that’s not a bad thing. The burger gets the job done. Solid 8/10. The cheese grits, y’all, were so good a perfect blend of cheese and creaminess. Each bite had that slight black pepper kick. I cleared that bowl in seconds. My only complaint was that it needed just a pinch more salt, which I added myself. Whoever the “big mama” in the back is with the flabby arm stirring the pot I appreciate you so much! 9.5/10. The breakfast burrito was freaking massive, man. When it hit the table, I was in utter disbelief. It was stuffed with everything the eggs were cooked perfectly, it was filled with cheese on the inside, and smothered with queso and salsa on top. What more could you ask for? All the flavors were there, but the downside was that it needed more seasoning. The eggs especially needed a bit of salt and pepper. That’s the only reason I’d give it an 8/10 as well. As you can see, none of the food was bad at all. The only thing that held it back was the slight and I mean slight under-seasoning. Please go support this place ASAP. P.S. My grandmother ordered the biscuits and gravy, and it was absolutely loaded. She loved it and said she could tell the biscuits were homemade.“

“Quick order ahead service!“

“I stop at the Starbucks anytime I’m coming from Central Alabama to Huntsville, which is quite often. The drinks are always PERFECTION!! Bathrooms are clean, which is a super plus especially for a lady who’s traveling“
