50 Best Coffee Shops near Avondale Estates

“I’ve been here a few times and the selections, vibes, and flavors are excellent. I did however want to complain that I was just there on a Saturday afternoon when it was actually not bust at all. The barista was taking to the side with what I thought was a customer. I put in my order easily at the kiosk and went to go walk around. I did a lap or so and realized the customer barista was taking to were friends of his. He definitely greeted me and saw me enter my order and just continued chatting with his friends. I felt weird to confront him and just waited. I walked over when I finally saw him start to make drinks as his friends left to get food next door. Only to find that he had just been making drinks for his friends. He apologized for the wait, but honestly it was a terribly service experience and felt really ignored. Next time I’m in the area I’m just going to go to Banjo Coffee instead.“

“Very friendly atmosphere. Cold brew selection is very good. Their black coffee is simply delicious.“

“Absolutely so cute! Very tasty treats. Perfect lunch spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Also, easy for a walk to when in Grant Park or the zoo.“

“I heard about The Black Coffee Company from someone this morning because they knew I was looking for a space to do some work with good coffee. I immediately drove over and when I tell you Crystal made me the Killer Mike and she made it a little sweet for me and Brianna topped my taste buds off with the avocado toast with everything on it. This is my new favorite spot. The music is great, not too loud that you can’t work but just right. I highly recommend them. They are a whole vibe.“

“Such a cute place. My 3-year-old spilled a bit of her cup of steamed milk and the barista could not have been sweeter; he offered my girl a replacement cup of milk and complimented her on her good manners. She talked about it for the rest of the day. I was here back in Dec 2024 as well, and it was just as nice. Eventually, we’ll make it for an open mic or music event.“

“Really enjoy this place. The atmosphere is peaceful and cozy. The baristas are excellent people who know their products but also have interesting backgrounds and talents. I have enjoyed a few conversations on lazy days with the folks working here. The coffee and tea and the elixirs are all delicious and I highly recommend. Parking is easy. Either park in lot or across the street .... Gillys also has events they host but I don't see them posted on FB... I usually just ask at the counter.“

“Adorable and affordable high tea with delicious sandwiches and treats off the Beltline. We loved our *par-tea* here! Try the Georgia Peaches tea!“

“We have some of the whole bean coffee and find it so smooth! Looking at buying more!!“

“One of the best, longest standing coffee shops in ATL. Great location if your driving thru on I-75 , just 3-4 min off interstate. Parking can be tricky but the coffee, espresso, drinks and fresh pastries are always on point! Nice merch area too!“

“Best mocha!!!!! Had a very stressful day, and decided to treat myself with a fancy coffee. The lovely people behind the counter were so nice, especially the lady who recommended the best mocha, cookie butter, I think she said, and it was absolute perfection! ?? Chef's kiss!!! Thank you so much for your good energy and making my day so much better! ❤️ I visited Saturday, October 5th, 2024 around 4pm.“

“Mokhaport is a coffee shop featuring Ethiopian and Yemini coffee and teas. They also offer smoothies and food items with a sizable quantity of Halal, Vegan, Gluten-Free, and Soy-Free offerings. The majority of their food is made in-house. Mokhaport has an intimate seating area with Wifi and a generous number of electrical outlets. Mokaport has some of the best customer service for a coffee shop. The owner is friendly and willing to answer questions and provide recommendations regarding the menu offerings. You are actually provided a sample of your coffee/tea item before it is finalized. My go-to drink is the Dirty Adani (Sweet Yemini Chai with a shot of coffee) with brown sugar and oat milk. Pro tip: save your receipt via text, which makes it easier to duplicate your beverage order once you have found the perfect drink. I visit this coffee shop every time I am in the area, as the coffees, teas, and service are impeccable. I am looking forward to trying the smoothies, cheesecake, and some of the savory food products like the beef patty and cheese pastry.“

“One of my favorite cafes in Atlanta. Always a great coffee and breakfast sandwich. One of their staple characteristics is that every meal comes with a melody of assorted fruits. I am biased because they do offer our high quality acai straight from brazil . Moreover, I do what i do because I get to partner with the bet establishments in the city of Atlanta! Here we come ! Make sure to visit, and bring your laptop or a book, the playlist will be guaranteed to keep you a little while longer and the super rare antiques abundantly spread across the cafe will have you scheduling your next visit. Lastly, the people who work at Jpresso and those that frequent it for a nice time are all great. Make sure to make a friend. Hapeville has a winner with this one!“

“Coffee is good and service very friendly (altho a bit expensive). The problem is the parking though. I entered the validation code but got a letter a week later demanding I pay $87 as a fine for not paying parking. First the validation didn’t work. Second I will not return to any of that retail if that’s what the parking lot tries to extort from you for if someone does make a legit mistake and not pay. Places like the Battery, Avalon and Atlantic Station don’t do that. Even the city of Atlanta parking ticket is less. It’s sad as I like a lot of the restaurants there. But enforcing that kind of parking ran me off. Silly.“

“Great neighborhood coffee shop!“

“The service was amazing and the food was perfect.“

“Thoroughly enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere! We received a warm greeting from the door. The Sweet Potato Latte, Grits and Omni Bowl were all excellent. Highly recommend!“

“I had the ABC chicken sandwich. it was 🔥🔥🤯🔥🔥 Jalapeno American cheese, Asian slaw, sweet pickles, boomin' mango habanero sauce“

“I had a party here with about 15 people. Marianna (manager/owner) was most accommodating for me to have my party there. Mint is a great place to relax and have a cop of coffee and meet your friends there!“

“Amazing food . Chill vibe“

“Go for the coffee, stay for the mushroom quiche. Theres a certain level of expectation that comes from neighborhood coffee shops in nicer parts of Atlanta, sure. What's not necessarily expected is people who enjoy their job and who serve exquisite morning pastries. This mushroom quiche took a normal morning at a coffee shop and turned it into a memorable occurrence. I will now crave this pastry in the recesses of my mind: it has forever raised the bar for breakfast dining. I recommended to the very nice owners that they keep serving this pastry.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of well behaved kids when I was there. They fit in just fine.“

“LOVE the Vibe in this perfect outdoor space that fills with everyone in the neighborhood (pets included!). Such a delightful place to chill and catch up with friends. The service was exceptionally friendly. They even recommended a perfect vino to share between the four of us; it was Croatian! Epitet🍷. Utterly delicious and enjoyable.“

“Love what they're doing for the community and I enjoyed my tea from their cafe, as well. 😊“

“Great coffee and wonderful staff! Hit this place as tourists and would visit again!“

“Have missed the location in Poncey-Highlands--visited the VaHi store today and forgot how GREAT the cold brew is! Miss y'all, but will try to get to VaHi more often!!!“

“Easy & chill 🙂☮️ Cheers!!!☕️“

“I have visited this place a couple times and I really like it. The baristas are great at their job and it seems like really care about providing good service.

What really struck me here is how good the food is. I was kinda shocked as I always thought of food as an afterthought at most coffee shops. I have had The Deluxe and The Crunchwrap and they are both phenomenal. They feel like full meals and not simple add-ons to go with the coffee.

Highly recommend.“

“This may not be a "sit-and-work/etc" coffee shop - only two very cozy window nooks to sit inside + some limited outdoor seating - but that is truly the only trade-off with Academy.

The coffee program rotates beans regularly to different roasters, the specialty drinks are varied and well-rounded, and the folks behind the bar are huge (coffee) nerds in all the best ways. Highly recommend just standing at the bar talking coffee while you sip, if you're into that kind of thing.

Oh yeah, and then you realize you're not only in a coffee shop of incredible quality, BUT ALSO A BUTCHER SHOP?!?!!! That means the banger breakfast menu is being sliced/chopped/cut and prepared fresh right there before your eyes (and the eyes of the pig head they just wheeled in). They carry locally sourced and freshly butchered cuts of everything from chicken to cow. Great example of slow food: local-sourced produce and meats and ownership that cares about the community they're contributing to.

Simply the best.“

“today was my first time. I love their coffee my new go to over Starbucks the crepe stand outside superb“

“Good atmosphere I like the veggie burger“

“Hooked me on Coffee. Best Staff Ever!“

“On a mission to have breakfast today, without waiting in a long line, I stumbled on a jewel in the former location of soul food restaurants, Deacon Burton’s/Son’s Place in Inman Park. The Breakfast Burrito, Salmon on Toast, champagne, etc., were delicious and Complimentary!! Unbeknown to us, restaurant was having a “private intro” to the community and a staff training event. Melanie (Owner/Host) welcomed us in like we were family. Her husband Micheal was so excited to hear about my many visits to Deacon Burton’s. Can’t wait to go back. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Great cozy and peaceful place to meet for a cup of coffee/breakfast!“

“Super friendly staff and very good coffee and tea! My favorites right now are the lattes. The matcha and traditional lattes are unmatched in the area. So grateful for a coffee spot on the actual beltline.“

“I found this place after a long night of travel delays & cancellations, and it was everything I needed. I ordered a mocha latte and chocolate croissant and they were both so good. Enjoyed them at an outdoor table and it was perfection. The staff was very kind, and the chicken salad sandwich I bought for later was very tasty as well. Highly recommend.“

“great coffee and good people“

“I happened to find Jayida Ché while waiting to meet up with a friend. I got an iced Irie Punch dressed up by the tearista and I was immediately hooked. I haven’t been back to ATL to get any in person but I’ve ordered several hauls during quarantine and it’s been a perfect treat in a really tough time. Make sure to try the Masala Chai with Oat milk ❤️“

“Probably my favorite coffee shop ever. So good. My iced drink was served in a glass!!!“

“Today was our first time at Park Grounds. The staff and customer service was excellent (side note: great customer service is often hard to find). The breakfast we got was really good and delivered hot. The coffee we had was also delicious. Our experience just made me happy on a slow, quiet Sunday morning. We will definitely be back soon.“

“me and my fiancée got a caramel macchiato, pimento cheese sandwich and a scone. Great place with a nice vibe😊 will absolutely come back!“

“I recently hosted a wine tasting at a Couples event. D7 Lounge is nice! The hostess set up a nice and intimate vibe for couples. The food was good. Of course I had some great wine. I was appreciative of the cute set up she provided for the wine tasting. The couples enjoyed painting and a superb saxophonist. Great event. The lounge was clean and decorated very nice.“

“The Dirty Tea in Atlanta is a hidden gem and I am so thankful for this experience. From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the ambiance that seamlessly blends modern elegance with cozy intimacy. The aesthetic is stunning, with plush seating, soft lighting, and botanical accents. They have such a unique array of tea blends paired with delicate pastry’s and savory bites….and to top it off, the service was impeccable. The staff made me feel welcomed and pampered. Thank you! I will definitely be back the next time I’m in ATL.“

“Really nice coffee! Friendly and clean!!!“

“Clean, bright coffee shop with plenty of seating. Came here to kill a little time and enjoy a latte and some cold brew - both were really delicious. The chocolate croissant they had available was really good, too.

I have to give a shout-out to this place for two reasons in particular:

Prices are fair! Since COVID, I can't help but feel like some shops have taken advantage of the situation with inflation to really gouge their customers. Not so with Kula!

Second: they don't default to disposable cups if you're having your drink at the shop. Soooo many places have taken up this practice over the years, and it's honestly really disappointing that so much plastic and other waste isn't a concern to them. The fact that you can enjoy your drink in a real cup or glass just enhances the experience for me, and I think Kula deserves to be commended for it.

Great job to everyone at the shop! I look forward to coming back, and I highly recommend it to anyone searching for some coffee in the Buckhead. Don't even consider that overpriced garbage at Starbucks - come here for your coffee instead!“

“In from Dallas where I thought nothing could beat my favorite lemongrass but oh Atlanta. Thai Best Thai I’ve ever had!!! Food was amazing the flavors all so good and our server Suji was the nicest. Amazing food. Don’t miss this gem!! The woon sen and crispy rice larb were so so good and the masa man roti. Wow just wow.“

“Wonderful spot! We are so glad to have you in the community.“

“Nice coffee shop. A little pricey. The service is just fine. We waited for our coffees about 15 minutes. They missed the order or something, I had to go to them and ask where’s the coffee. The employee said “I’m gonna make it now” - after 15 minutes passed. The food arrived maybe 25 minutes later after we ordered.“

“Taproom is our go to spot for meetings, great coffee and excellent service. Been a neighborhood staple/homebase for years. Love this place.“

“Great coffee, food and vibe!“

“Our new find in Atl‼️❤️ We love everything about it. …. So does our doggie 🐾“
