Charlie Foster's Espresso + Wine Bar

Horrible experience. Was sitting at the bar for 20 minutes and no one greeted me or my friend. When we asked if we could look at a menu she pointed to the register. She was SO rude. And when we finally got our drink it was terrible. The coffee was burnt in our espresso martini. Willing to give them another chance but wow. Haven’t had this bad of service in a while.

Wonderful chill atmosphere, very comfortable. The pistachio muffin was extremely good, super soft texture, not overly sweet, just perfect. The cold brew was also a delight. Highly recommend you to check it out if you haven't already. :-)

The coffee is amazing every time, and the atmosphere is very friendly and laid-back. I love that the syrups are homemade and that I can always count on a good cup of coffee every visit. It's become my Huntsville favorite, and I hope it never closes. Will 100% be back for more!

We absolutely LOVE this place!!
Logan and Imon take such great care of us every time we come in. The atmosphere is so relaxing and the food is delicious. You have to get the brown sugar shaken espresso and the breakfast sandwich on a croissant!! Not to mention, it’s also an espresso wine bar so you can come for breakfast and then come back for a night cap and some wine. Such a cool concept! 100% recommend.

Since changing ownership… it’s a no. The whole point was uplifting people with disabilities in a fun environment. I don’t know what happened but that’s all been trashed for a wine bar? Idk why even buy Charlie fosters coffee shop and keep nothing but the name—not the vibe, not the people, not the great atmosphere, not the mission, not the drinks. Shady ownership change and I’ll be surprised this place will last without anything that brought people here before. There’s already 17 places to get alcohol at stovehouse lol

Absolutely LOVE Charlie Foster's!! The atmosphere is so welcoming and relaxing. It's a vibe❣️
The staff is helpful and kind, the food is delicious, and the coffee is phenomenal!
I usually get an iced latte (caramel, vanilla, or both!); but I look forward to trying the brown sugar latte or espresso everyone seems to love.
As far as food, I've had the veggies sandwich, quesadila, and BLT - all chef's kiss
My friend tried a breakfast burrito and loved it. Can't recommend enough this place will always be a favorite.

We had wine and it was tasteless. Disappointed especially for the price of a glass of wine

Felt sorry for the girl behind the counter, she had to take all the orders and make all the drinks on her own. Waited 15 mins for an Americano that came out of a carafe in a to go cup for a 'here' order, for $5.00!

I got the brown sugar latte and enjoyed it. The staff was super friendly and it was a nice quiet coffee shop.

Not a bad place, but I was disappointed because originally they supported the special needs community by providing jobs and an inclusive environment, and I suppose that just “disappeared” with a renovation. I would expect a name change at least with that big of a swing from the original mission.

It’s a fine coffee shop, nothing unique or special, but has coffee and chill vibes. I wouldn’t pass on other shops to go here, but if I wanted a coffee while at Stovehouse, I would still stop in.

I ordered a latte and paid in cash and they only had coins to make change for a 10 so I said to keep it as a tip. I got the latte 15 minutes later and it didn’t taste like it had much espresso in it so I asked if I could have an extra shot and they said no and that I needed to pay an extra 4.50 for that. I might be stupid enough to pay 10 dollars for a latte but I draw the line at 15 so I just went home and made my own. They were also out of avocados so I couldn’t get the vegetarian items on the menu. Overall funny experience but I won’t go back. Vibes are good.

Such a bright and spacious spot! Lots of seating which is great when you need a place to get some work done. Unique, fun menu.

**UPDATE: the coffee shop was sold and rebranded and my prior review was regarding the original Charlie Fosters. The new espresso + wine bar still has good coffee, but an entirely different vibe than under previous ownership.
