You’ll find fast, friendly, expert baristas at both locations. The defender espresso roast is phenomenal but I also enjoy their drip coffees.

Stopped in for a cup of coffee, not a good morning, can I help you, nothing. Ignored so I left after waiting for 3-4 min or so. No one in line and two workers there.

Stopped by today after having a procedure done at Thomas and had a delicious iced vanilla oat milk latte 😋 Lovely atmosphere and very kind barista. Will be back again ☕

Finally, a coffee shop that pays attention to the water used. Expensive filters help to make coffee at Refuge the safest and possibly the tastiest in Fairhope.
Fairhope water is less than outstanding, thanks to "mystery powder" from China, which arrives with a "toxic waste" skull symbol on every bag. This powder is summarily dumped into the municipal water. Nothing is tested except the fluoride levels (from chemical waste, not pharma grade fluoride by the way).
It's so heartening to see that a town like Fairhope trusts the health of its citizens to a nation across the sea with a president who brags that his people "believe they are descended from 'The Dragon'." If you don't believe that, then go to Youtube and search for "trump xi dragon." The video will come right up.
Anyway, the owner of Refuge is a published author. He's also well traveled and knows how to source really high quality beans from small farms in central America, which are roasted in-house. Kudos! It's so great to find beans that are not "Arabica," like nearly everyplace else.

All of refugees Google information show them open today, specifically sharing the shortened times because it is New Year's day. We drove to both locations in Fairhope and both were closed. Very disappointed because we live in the Robertsdale area. They do need to make sure and update their Google information. We generally really enjoy their lavender latte and coffee.

Had coffee with a friend. Service was great and atmosphere was good for chatting. Glad to have two of theses in Fairhope. Hard to see from 98 though because of the big food truck in front of building.

The honey cinnamon latte was perfect! So perfect we stopped each morning of our trip for one. Coffee cake was delicious and so was the banana bread.

This is my favorite coffee in town. I love, love, love the taste of the coffee here, and my personal obsession is the lavender coffee. I love to visit on Wednesday when the Green & Grain food truck is parked out front.
