The name says it all....This isn't "just" coffee. Not to imply that they offer so much more than just coffee. More so that this isn't your average coffee. This coffee puts any other coffee you've ever enjoyed to absolute shame!
Fresh coffee made with an exciting flare right before your eyes. Counter culture beans and delicious pour over are aplenty. Don't know what that means? Google it because I'm new to the scene and certainly not the best guy to try to explain it. All I can tell you is that it's damn good stuff!
The staff here is friendly and uber talented. The owner, James Yoder, really knows his way around a coffee mug. He's recently competed in some national coffee crafting competitions and is an all around nice guy. This place is located inside of the 7th Street Public Market in Uptown Charlotte and has a bit of a hipster vibe. A great place to meet a friend and chat over a cup of your favorite freshly brewed coffee. Also in the market is Local Loaf bakery where you can grab breakfast or a light pastry while you enjoy your coffee drink of choice.
There's no need for sweeteners and froufrou creamers in this joint. Incredible coffee that can be enjoyed in its purity and it won't cost you $5 a cup like that "other place" people think has "real" coffee. Granted, if you like the froufrou stuff, they can do that too. I find myself craving their coffee on a regular basis now. I think I need to closeout this review so that I can go get me a cup! Don't forget to validate your parking ticket from the attached garage. You park for free if you are out within 90 minutes.
