This is hands down my favorite coffee joint in town! The baristas are always personable but keep it real (which is way more appreciative than a fake smile) even if it's 6:30 am! Their coffee is always on point and the early grey scones are amazing. They usually have a variety of decadent vegan treats from Move That Dough baking too! Treat yo self!���
Central Coffee is one of those places that’s just a cool spot to hangout. I’m a coffee snob and when they served double espresso with carbonated water on the side, I said yep. They know how to do it. Great place, enjoy.
The best Filthy Chai Latte I’ve had to date. My wife order matcha latte in almond milk with white mocha. No complaints over here. Don’t change your recipe and process. Happy customers from Atlanta!
I just love this place. I grab coffee here frequently and it's awesome! It's locally owned, and their coffee is incredible. The prices are very reasonable and I'd say lower than most coffee shops.
The staff are extremely friendly, welcoming and polite. The coffee and food are fantastic. I've had their pastries, bagels and more have all been delicious.
The coffee shop is cool, just simplistic and stylish. There are plenty of tables for working or just hanging out, a side room that provides some quite space, and a couple lounge chairs. There is not outside seating.
There is metered parking on the street with plenty of spots available. Always worth a visit!
This place is the heart of the neighborhood. The coffee is great and the casserole on Saturdays is the best. The staff is incredible. There was a line and they noticed me walk in. They handed me my daily cappuccino as I waited to pay.
Been here a few times this fall. Nice place to get focused work done for a few hours. Wi-Fi. Lighting is more on the dim side, kinda nice. Chill vibe. Try the quiche, coffee, bagels - it’s all good. Friendly crew. Quick service. Note: Best for solo work or 2 people. As of now only one table for a larger group (4-5).
This was a very inviting atmosphere. The staff were very friendly. The coffee was good. I also had a shortbread cookie which was also very good. I definitely recommend this place.
This is my favorite coffee shop in Charlotte. I’ve been coming here for about 8 years, regardless of all the new places springing up and the other options around town. This place has the perfect vibe: It’s a neighborhood joint with great coffee and chill staff and zero annoying coffee pretentiousness. Get a Central Shorty. It’s a small single shot latte with a hint of vanilla. Anna gets the 2019 Best Shorty Award according to me and verified by an independent 3rd party. FYI.
A really nice, clean, quiet place. Coffee is great, food is good. Friendly staff, quick service. Highly recommend!
One of Charlotte’s very best coffee shops & one of my personal all-time-favorites. I have eaten more slices of the incredible vegan zucchini bread than could ever be quantified! Nice atmosphere, incredibly kind staff and owners, and superb oat milk lattes!
Haven’t been here in a while. Comfortable, underground shop feel. Coming here during the times they bake scones is my favorite part. The chocolate chip scone is delicious. Latte on the tart, creamy side. Also serve quiche, cake, and other pastries.
Parking: small lot available.
When I travel, I look for places that I can’t find at home, I don’t want to go to the same Starbucks in every city I visit. This was a result of a Google Maps search and I have probably been there a half dozen times now. Good coffee and barista drinks, good snacks, good wifi and an interesting crowd in an interesting neighborhood. I will be back there when I’m back in Charlotte next week.
