Highly recommend this coffee joint! The refreshing atmosphere of this cafe keeps me coming back majority of my mornings in uptown, Charlotte. The natural lighting, scattered plants, and iced dirty chai lattes turn my remote work into something I look forward to instead of dread. The staff is here is super friendly and efficient at crafting their drinks in a timely manner. This is the one place in the city where I walk in and feel that time slows down and the "hustle culture" diminishes.

Reminiscent of the coffee houses of the 90’s, Waterbean is a relaxing spot nestled in Uptown between Romare Bearden Park and what I call “the classier section of Tryon St.” Comfy leather couches on rugs, long church pews, and stone countertops are just a few of the cool aesthetics. Great coffee and tea selections, a good sandwich menu , and fresh-baked goodies make it great place for pit stops or longer work stays. Note: The Dutch inversion method of cold brewing makes for a fun visual and a really smooth texture. Highly recommended!

Super friendly and very good coffee fast! Loved the plants and brightness of the coffee shop!

I stepped out for a coffee break to the park and did not choose Starbucks. Very sad coffee and it wasn’t even mixed well. I got chunks of powder in my mouth as I sipped. Totally disappointing.
I chose a flavour, but this beverage was sweeter than sugar.

Goddam! Flavor extraction accomplished. They do justice to the life of the bean that was sacrificed in the roasting process.

The baristas were not knowledgeable about the exact makeup of the water that was sourced for the brew, but otherwise they were quite friendly and knowledgeable.

I would recommend this establishment to any bean heads passing through.

I did not sample a pour over as they seem to be quite busy for the amount of staff available.

I loved the coffee and the customer service! Beautiful people with beautiful smiles, but I knocked off a couple of stars because of the stools around the wooden tables? Since they were the only tables with charging ports, I had to sit there. But after I got up, I had the WORST backache. Honestly, made me reconsider coming back. If those stools were switched out for some comfy chairs, this place would have allll my money and study sessions.

The Milano cookie latte was superb. Loved the macaroons as well.

Waterbean is beautiful.

It has its own brand with 11 coffee shops across North Carolina. This is the second one I have visited, but they both had a comfortable vibe.

Outside of the coffee shop had a California feel to it with the structural design of the place. Inside was nicely dimmed but not dark, which made it perfectly relaxing.

When I walked in, I wasn’t greeted, but the workers seemed annoyed that I had come. I ordered food and waited 20 minutes because they forgot. I was pretty upset.

After I reminded her about my food, she apologized, made it, and her attitude was fantastic. She talked more, and I could tell she was sincerely sorry.

When I got my sandwich, it so so delicious. It was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had.

I’m from Cleveland, so I can’t visit as much as I want, but I’ll be looking forward to revisiting when I’m in Charlotte.

If this review was helpful, please leave a thumbs up.

The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. I tried their paradise latte and the strawberry lemon muffin. Both items were very satisfying and delicious.

Beautiful location and thanks so much for helping Officer Mia’s Family with the money made on Christmas Eve 2021. It was my pleasure to be apart of something so special and have great coffee & bakery along the way!
