Coffee Shops near Meadowbrook

“I have to say, the Dunkin on 280 is consistently on point! It’s always busy, which says a lot, but what stands out even more is how professional, kind, and efficient the staff is every single time.
I wasn’t even a coffee person at first, but the team kept recommending different drinks to try… and next thing you know, I’m officially a Dunkin Junkie! 😂
Shoutout to the entire crew for making each visit smooth, welcoming, and memorable. Great service, great energy, and even better coffee. Keep doing your thing! 👏🏾🔥“

“Dude…

This is easily in the top 5 coffee shops I’ve ever visited. Tim is a barista’s barista, pleasant to talk to, knows his craft and ready to share his excitement about coffee. The espresso was delicious, smooth, fragrant, sweet, not overly acidic or bitter. The other drinks celebrate the coffee without distracting from it, something I don’t see nearly as often as I’d like.

The shop itself is a welcoming space, lots of natural light, comfortable environment. Great vibe all the way around.

Prices are absolutely fair considering the quality of service and product I received. I’m absolutely coming back ASAP.“

“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!“

“Love this place and the owners!!! Such a wonderful business.“

“Great employees, coffee and breakfast“

“We had a nice lunch on the patio and enjoyed our coffees and sandwiches. The cortado was not sweet, ymmv, and the cold brew was good, not weak nor very acrid. We enjoyed a Japanese egg salad sando, a schmancy BLT, and this avocado toast with a medium-fried egg that was fantastic. The service was great and they also offer pastries from the nearby Last Call Bakery that looked delicious. It was a little pricey, thus the 4-star. Despite this, we already have plans to return.“

“Delicious special Beverages!! Such quality!! We are so lucky to have y’all in our community! Thank y’all for supporting Oak Mountain Elementary School! ❤️💙“

“Awesome addition to the Crestwood neighborhood!“

“The staff here are incredibly welcoming and friendly—they set the tone for a really comfortable and enjoyable visit. It’s the kind of place where you feel at ease right away; such a good vibe. The sandwiches are made with love and their coffee is a 10/10.“

“An incredible opportunity to live here!!“

“This was my first time here and everything was excellent. My Turtle latte and the quick friendly service was great. My drink was how coffee drinks should be where the coffee shines over the flavors. I can't wait to return the next time I'm in Birmingham.“

“On the menu, you’ll find a thoughtful variety of espresso drinks, pour-overs, and seasonal specials. Their house blends are praised for balancing brightness and depth.  During the fall, Baba Java’s specialty drinks like the Pumpkin Pie Latte and Flannel Camel show they aren’t afraid to experiment with flavor.  The Pumpkin Pie Latte delivers subtle sweetness without overwhelming, while the Flannel Camel’s mix of cold brew, maple, and nutty notes is a win over ice.“

“I've practically lived here for the past month while studying for a difficult board exam. I love how the drinks are very customizable, and the general vibe has to be my favorite of any of the coffee shops in Birmingham. Super friendly employees too.“

“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.“

“Santos in Homewood is a lively, modern Mexican-inspired restaurant that has quickly become a favorite for locals seeking bold flavors and a fun atmosphere. The interior is bright and colorful, with a casual, welcoming vibe that makes it ideal for date nights, family dinners, or casual gatherings with friends.

The menu focuses on fresh, flavorful dishes with a modern twist on classic Mexican cuisine. Tacos are a highlight—crispy, soft, or grilled, each packed with inventive fillings and vibrant toppings. Burritos, bowls, and quesadillas are equally satisfying, and the restaurant offers plenty of vegetarian options. Sides like chips and guacamole, street corn, and fresh salsas round out the meal perfectly.“

“I was visiting town from Nashville for a concert, and always try a local coffee shop. The barista was fantastic and explained every option in detail. I loved the little cozy, middle-of-town setting in the small strip of restaurants. The coffee was fantastic (shout out to Honest Roasters in Nashville) and the ago toast hit the spot. The have plenty of seating and tables outside as well, to enjoy a coffee outside. Well done!“

“Friendly service and delicious food & bev :) I had a pimento cheese & sausage biscuit + a white chocolate & caramel latte ... PERFECT for Saturday morning errands!“

“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.“

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

“Service is inconsistent. I’ve encountered extremely kind baristas and some that could be more accommodating and friendly to customers. The baristas are key to me being a returning customer. Once I experience one person who is unkind, I don’t want to return.“

“Delicious breakfast in a casual atmosphere!“

“The brew had a strong aroma and a flavor that felt rich and satisfying. The body was smooth, with just enough bitterness to balance the taste. Service was friendly and efficient, adding to the positive experience. The finish lingered pleasantly, leaving a warm aftertaste. Overall, a cup worth coming back for.“

“Very nice hotel !!the staff was very nice and professional“

“Great coffee and friendly staff!“

“I had the chipotle tex-mex bowl with brown rice and chicken. It was probably the best bowl I had in a long time, all the ingredients went together really well and the sauce was, wow. Service was good and the food was ready in under 5 min. Will definitely come back.“

“Delicious breakfast in a casual atmosphere!“

“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“

“I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to the Vestavia Hills Fire Department for responding and arriving so fast at our house yesterday. We had an emergency and the whole crew showed up so quick. Thank you to all the guys.“

“The staff are very accommodating. I ordered a latte and have a dairy allergy and they have non dairy options. They also made the latte with the right level of sweetness with the right amount of espresso. There are not too many coffee places open late that serve a good quality coffee at a fair price.“

“Since Scooter’s showed up as a sponsor for the Shelby County Reporter Football show we regularly visit the Chelsea & Inverness locations. Great breakfast with a nice simple menu & by far the best smoothies in town. Service is always quick, courteous, & friendly. The only thing that would make it any better would be a location in Mt. Laurel. Great job guys!“

“Cozy coffee shop in the heart of Homewood. Excellent customer service and atmosphere.“

“Best mini’s around Made fresh while you wait“

“The best place to study in Birmingham“

“This is the best Starbucks in Birmingham, not only is the food and drinks amazing, the staff is overly the top friendly. When you walk in that store you feel welcomed, you feel the warmth. Arie and Morningstar always makes my days better!!! They truly are amazing ladies. They are always so helpful and over friendly. I’ve never walked into some where that made me feel so much happiness“

“Food was good, but everything was cold. Really like the place the staff is excellent. Wish they would concentrate on making sure that the food arrives hot.“

“Seriously the best Starbucks in town. Employees are friendly, fast, and they make the best chai tea lattes (I add some extra pumps and they always get that right). Consistent, accurate, and kind. I happily drive out of my way to come to this one at least 3xs a week (I’m one of the Starbucks addicts).“

“K & J’s elegant pastries suggested I go to Santos coffee so I walked around the corner. I wasn’t sure what to order so I asked for suggestions so I Got me a large iced caramel coffee. It was so good. I wish I wasn’t in a hurry I really liked to have checked this place out a little longer. Really good vibe and the smell of coffee is so relaxing. I would definitely recommend this place and I definitely will be going back again.“

“Principio is a local roastery with excellent coffee . I love the mission! "Empowering Dreams"“

“The best place to study in Birmingham“

“I absolutely love this place! literally, this place is absolutely phenomenal. there's two separate bartenders that are there on any given morning... both these girls are absolutely fantastic. both of them are really really pretty and they've got amazing attitudes, they've always got a smile on their face and what's amazing is, you can walk in on a Monday morning like this morning, knowing it's Monday and it's overcast and those two girls were laughing and cutting up and smiling and it just put you in a really really really amazing mood to start your day. I'm of the belief that if we can be around people that can brighten our day, then we definitely should. these girls start my morning off on a positive foot. I don't feel like a customer, honestly I try to bring them either energy drinks or donuts and then eat the world's greatest biscuits and gravy, that gravy is absolutely amazing, and there's always a smile on their face, it's always an amazing time and I look forward to each time I come which is about 3 or 4 days a week. the stores always really clean, and it smells amazing. the restrooms are always in great condition, sitting at the bars amazing, there's never food left around or sitting around, they're quick to clean up the tables, these girls really run the show, and everybody else in the background does an amazing job too. really thankful for this place, and I'm really glad that I get to be a part of the BBB family! Yall rock“
