I'm adding another star to Central Coffee...because it's officially my favorite coffee house in Charlotte. Some points that need to be made...
1) The coffee is really that good. I'm partial to an iced Americano, raspberry latte or spiced chai. If you are staying for a while, make sure to get your hot bevvies in an adorable mug.
2) The baristas are quite talented with their latte art. Check out the pics, but I've seen some gorgeous lattes.
3) The breads & pastries are damn delicious. Try the superloaf with a side of peanut butter or the zucchini bread. I've also had my eye on the pound cake for some time now...
4) Free WiFi, comfy seats and generally pretty quiet.
Go to Central Coffee and get your caffeination on.
