What a lovely place. I came here on a Sunday seeking a relaxing place to have coffee and read a book. Lovely staff, good coffee, and definitely try the breakup cookie.
The atmosphere was great. Books and nice chairs for reading while sipping coffee. Service was okay by high school students who learned to practice business skills. Coffee was subpar. More of a rendezvous point than a coffee lover's heaven.
Honey Lavender Latte and a Breakup Cookie makes for a perfect Saturday!
Such a cute little coffee shop and book store! Great atmosphere, upstairs, kid nook, and cozy patio. Moka and Wren made us delicious Amaretto Chai Lattes, and a berry apple juice for our kiddo, and the pastries made by Ian were great! Try the Breakup Cookie. Wish we could've stayed longer on our way back home, but we'll be back for sure!
The ambience is very nice here. Service was quick and friendly. Only been here once and had tea. The tea was well flavored. My companions also enjoyed their drinks.
This place is AWESOME! Great coffee, great bakery items (shortbread cookies and the breads are just fantastic!), reasonably priced, and the UAB students working there are great! I'd give Church Street ten stars if I could! If I lived in the state, I'd be there every day! Remember: The kids depend on our tips to supplement their income so treat them well! Drop in $2 instead of $1, or $5 instead of $2. 😃 Pro Tip: I just tried the "Tree Hugger" bar. Kind of a granola-y, sunflower seed-y, brown sugar-y, concoction that is one of the best tasting, absolutely delicious, sorta-healthy bars I've ever had! Try it!
Great place to get some work done while people watching. Super cute.
My chi latte was not good… I had them remake it but just was not for me. But it was a nice little place with a loft (great for studying). The staff was kind and place clean. I am looking forward to going again and trying something different.
The breakup cookie is incredible even if you’re in love 🤍
Had an iced mocha and a breakup cookie. Both were really good! Good atmosphere and friendly customer service. :)
Wonderful staff. Love the fresh coffee and bakery treats.
Busy, but for good reason. Went here for the first time on Sunday. Had a cappuccino and a breakup cookie. Staff went out of their way to let me know if I had a few minutes that they had a fresh batch of cookies coming out soon, so I waited and was definitely not disappointed. The breakup cookie seriously has to be one of the best desserts in town and the coffee and vibe were great to sit down and stay a while.
The employees were really nice and friendly! I only had a cookie but it was delicious. Definitely a cute stop when in the area
Delicious coffee and even sweeter treats. The breakup cookie is so insanely good. Wish there was more seating, but the coffee is so worth it. Nice atmosphere.
This is a wonderful little coffee shop in Mountain Brook. It's also a small book store.very nice atmosphere and excellent coffee.
Cookies are out of this world! Grandkids LOVE going to Church Street Coffee and Books for a special treat of double chocolate chip cookies. DELISH treat! The staff was super kind and passionate as well.
Nice find in suburban Birmingham and the barista remembered drink order by 2nd visit. Long live independent coffee shop and book stores
Hazelnut cappuccino was delicious, just enough sweetness. The breakup cookie was alright. More outdoor seating would be really nice but they did have some comfy chairs on the side.
First time here and I can already tell you it’s been a very pleasant experience. It has got great vibes and good seating. The baristas were very nice and the coffee is DELICIOUS!!
Picked up some Break Up Cookies for a work thing and they are amazing. Order was ready ahead of time and the staff was all very friendly. The cookies are AMAZING. I will be back to get more and hopefully be able to stay and enjoy the store's atmosphere next time
