Nice coffee spot in a uptown Charlotte. Attached to the Marriott, you can access this shop from trade street or from inside the hotel. Coffee is good — and the baristas take their time in making well-balanced drinks. Some of the flavored lattes are overly sweet — such as the cinnamon / brown sugar options, so you may want to ask for light flavor. There is nice seating options — some are “upstairs”, or you can sit in the hotel or business office atrium. Easy spot for a meeting uptown — if you’re walking; cannot imagine parking is convenient or affordable (if you parked with the hotel).

Stopped in while traveling through Charlotte. Great atmosphere and vibes. You could come here to collaborate/work with others and sign up for a spot downstairs or find yourself going through the layered step platforms which were designed perfectly. Great coffee and superb friendly service. We even dabbled in some of the fresh brewed loose leaf lemon ginger tea. Group favorites include the breakfast sandwiches and muffins and ice’d mocha. Eclectic and worth the stop!

This is a 5 star coffee shop, this is also a work environment, this is also very relaxing. Oh the espresso is really interesting, has a nice nutty flavor. This is a must go.

One of the few consistent coffee shops I go to. Top 5 for studying in Charlotte for me.

Delicious pastries, good coffee, interesting interior. An iced coffee and scone will run you nearly $15. Definitely a barrier to entry!

Wonderful coffee shop. Drip coffee was nice and easy to drink. Prices are reasonable. There is lots of seating, including levels with pillows to sit on. Just an overall nice vibe and experience.

Beautiful cafe with friendly staff. I ordered an iced chai latte with oatmilk, latte, cronut and a chicken panini. Everything tastes great. Highly recommended!

Cute coffee shop. The latte and smoothie I had were not worth the prices - not using the best ingredients. Had a cronut though and those are always delicious!

Saw this location on Tik tok and decided to try it. This coffee shop has cronuts, prosecco AND sandwiches. OMG. A little pricey for a coffee shop. Instantly fell in love with the vibe of the space. Cozy and welcoming to folks that need a change of scenery working remote and a nice place to have a casual lunch business meeting. Great location.

I loved it here. Dropped in for a quick breakfast with my family, it was a bit of wait for the coffee but there was a line.

This place used to be good. Let's not confuse the well-designed space with good food and service experience. Despite adequate staffing, service is especially slow for no reason. I've witnessed people walk out of line when they were next. The food is marginal and they replaced the divine Sugarman cronuts with their own knock off version that is essentially, tasteless sugar dough. They likely capitalize on the flow between the hotel and corporate building, but they will be in for the fight of their lives once this large food court area opens in the same building/block. Overpriced and under-delivering.

Amazing! Excellent place for co-working or meeting with colleagues. The coffee was fantastic! Loved all the large tables they had to encourage either community seating or meeting with colleagues. Will definitely head back here on my next trip.

This is a super cool coffee shop downtown! The interior is modern and cozy, lots of wood and black metal, ambient lighting, and different seating areas. I didn’t get any food, but saw they had a sandwich station, in addition to serving pastries and some packaged/pre-made salads and sandwiches. I had the cinnamon bun latte and liked it! Was on the sweeter side, but that’s what I enjoy for coffee. This is a great atmosphere for working or studying; I need to come by again with my laptop!
