Owners are incredible. Solid down to earth& good people. Caring about NoDa & the people in it. Supporting the cat is huge in supporting where you make your home. Will happily support this business.

Brad Hager

Great little coffee shop , coffee is very flavorful, nice place to read a book , work on the computer etc.. while enjoying a coffee , beer , or wine . Nice outdoor seating as well .

Amanda Moralez

Great coffee , really like the Sweet New Orleans cold brew . Tasty food and great staff . Bring your own cup or use a reusable glass there and they'll donate money to a local charity of your selection.

Lauren Hoolehan

Their coffee is awesome, their breakfast biscuits are super yummy, and their atmosphere has a very hip , laid back vibe! It was our first time here and we loved it!!

Logan Lanier

Come in for the unique name; stay for the quality coffee . Local, authentic and eclectic sum up this NoDa staple. A hidden treasure that even hosts a small arts-market on weekends.

Michaela Pierce

Perfect place to get a cup of coffee sit in one of the cozy nooks and read a book you've been dying to finish. The baristas are kind + inviting people.

they roast their beans for a mid roast with excellent floral notes. I travel a lot and seek out great coffee houses . This is one of the best.

Erika Finnimore

If you need a good-quality pour over and a cozy place to work remotely, go here. Even the drip coffee is superb, too. So flavorful and not bitter.

Danielle L.

One of, if not the only coffee shop in Charlotte that roasts their beans right there! Friendly staff and a wonderful place to get work done.

David Crawford

Bicycle parking and the walk-up window keep going during Covid19 lockdowns.

Aditya Badrinath

As people have said, great coffee , but the baristas are just really fantastic people. Usually up to talk for a bit, and a lot of fun. Makes you want to come back.

Had the zucchini bread pudding . I was a little skeptical but it was fantastic! Highly recommended. Peppermint and mica lattes are awesome.

Katherine Fortner

I usually go in the summer for smoothies and milkshakes but their hot chocolate in the winter is good too, they even added peppermint in it for me!

We came here every morning last year, even the morning of our wedding.. The baristas are some of the sweetest people we have ever met. Great local atmosphere:)

Scout

This place has vegan (soy) options for all of their drinks. Try the toasted coconut frappe . It's kind of completely glorious.

Elisa Waldman

Friends who know say the coffee is pretty good. Good vibe inside. Quirky and laid back . A don't miss place when visiting NoDa, for sure.

Chloe Kelly

I had the chai latte and blueberry muffin . Both were incredibly delicious! Best chai latte I have ever had!

Ryn Wetmore

These wonderful people are letting me host NaNoWriMo write ins here every Monday and Tuesday through November. Look for the fedora once you have your drink! :-)

Joshua Drown

Love this NoDa spot for many reasons, but the tasty hot chocolate always seems to make a cold winter day brighten.

Smelly Cat has the best Dirty Chai I've ever had! It's a little pricey , but so worth it.

THE BEST vanilla iced latte I have ever had!! Highly recommend

Aditya Badrinath

Great coffee , wifi , outlets, and the staff are just so freaking nice. Love this place.

Elizabeth Behrens

Inside isn’t open. Service is slow and not that friendly . Lattes were fine but not amazing. Food (burrito and biscuit sandwich ) was perfunctory but not worth having if you can go anywhere else to eat.

Ricky Sherrill

Went in for some coffee and came out with a very good milkshake .

Laura Bell

This is my favorite chai tea latte in town !

Kari Hess

All of my coffee drinking friends rave about their coffee selection.
