Innova Coffee

Staff was great! I like my coffee black with the pour over method. Usually I get the more bold flavors but wanted to try something new. They let me have a sample of the more bold one just to make sure I didn’t want that. I decided on my first choice but the bold one was really good also, I just wanted to try something new. When my coffee came out I got a complimentary square of shortbread. This square was amazing! Also the syrup they brought out was warmed up. Talk about exceptional. Like I never expected to even get that little square or be able to taste test a flavor. The picture is what’s after but I really was enjoying it and didn’t think to stop and take a picture. Also the little paper cup was my taste test cup the little glass one was the syrup and the syrup soaked paper towel is what the shortbread came on. For sure worth a visit!

Great establishment, great atmosphere, and the artwork on your coffee provided by the baristas are fabulous. Very welcoming and hospitable. Exemplary business supported by warm, engaging staff and leadership from the owner. Breaded mini-cake is compulsive.

I visit Birmingham a few times a year and I have started booking a hotel a little further from work so it is more convenient to go to Innova! I am happy to have delicious pour-over coffee to start the day, but the real treasure is the owner Tyler. He is an exceptionally nice person and somehow remembers me even though I’m only in every few months. I’m impressed with the coffee, the food, the space, and the people.

Ordered to go, drinks tasted lovely, handwriting beautiful, and my toast was so satisfying! Very thick slice of bread and fresh ingredients, everything was delicious!

Yes, it’s good
It’s in an apartment complex and open to the public, so be aware of that detail before arriving. :)

We throughly enjoyed our drink, the space, and the service. We think it’s a genius idea to operate a coffee shop this way and a big plus for the apartment residents as well.

Overall, appreciated this and would come back! :)

Great little coffee shop. Amazing pour overs and pretty good espresso. Each coffee comes with a little shortbread cookie which pairs well with the coffee. For sure would come check this place out if you're in the area.

I love this place! Great environment and extremely friendly staff. They’re also very knowledgeable about coffee/tea products. Don’t be afraid to ask for something not on the menu. And the price for the product is unbeatable. No, it doesn’t have a drive through. But you can get a cup of coffee, leave a generous tip, and still come out cheaper than Starbucks! And their coffee tastes better. Yeah, I said it. If you’re ever near by, stop by. You won’t regret it.

This place is nice, was looking for a coffee shop to stop by before going shopping and I just saw this on maps so we went. I didn’t realize it was inside of an apartment lobby area, but it is open to the public so it doesn’t really matter. The latte and hot chocolate were pretty good, the muffin wasn’t the best though. The employees and baristas were super nice!

Great place for breakfast. Coffee was good.. good was great. Ambiance is very unique because it's not a typical coffee shop. Very friendly and prompt service.
Masks are optional (May 2021).. so many customers and staff members are without them.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Birmingham! I come here often to get work done and it's the perfect atmosphere. I have had their hot chocolate, cappuccino, and cold brew, and all of them have been absolutely delicious. If I could afford to be a regular I absolutely would!
