Kindness Cafe + Play

Kindness Cafe + Play is my favorite coffee spot in Cville! The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the coffee & goodies are top notch. Not to mention the mission of Kindness is pretty remarkable. Thanks, Kindness Cafe! Will definitely come back again!

The coffee is great, service is excellent, and the atmosphere is amazing. Come here for the smiling faces...your delicious coffee will feel like a bonus. The power balls are so so good!

Delicious drinks and snacks and even better customer service! The atmosphere is terrific. Really love the iced chai latte and their seasonal drinks, including the raspberry lemonade spritzer during summer and peppermint mocha during the winter!

My sons and I started frequenting Kindess Cafe during breaks in Zoom Kindergarten classes 2 years ago. We came for the curbside or drive by/drive-thru pick up (maybe the most convenient and easy "drive thru coffee" in town!!) of delicious icy Americanos, fun smoothies, perfect hot tea selection, and in the winter - FIST PUMPS (hot chocolate with so many treats). We could bring to the bike path or playground with us or now play some games they have set up outside. But not only did/do we continue to come for all of the treats, but for the chance to share a chat and some smiles under the big yellow umbrellas outside or just passing by with team Kindness. We're SO glad they're here!

We love Kindness Cafe! The staff is always so friendly and make such great treats. Our favorites are the smoothies and lattes!

Amazing coffee and treats but even more importantly amazing people. Kindness Cafe is more than just a coffee shop, it’s a community that radiates positivity and kindness that makes you want to visit again and again!

We love Kindness Café! Super easy curbside pickup, delicious frittatas, yummy chai lattes (iced and hot). And of course more specialty drinks and the usual coffee drink options.

I love kindness cafe. The drinks and sweet treats are tasty and the staff are the nicest people ever. It lives up to it's name.... they are full of kindness ❤️

Kindness Cafe is a great place to grab coffee or to meet friends, and the service and people are both outstanding. It has quickly become an important community hub in Charlottesville.

I had the best first time visit there this morning. A kind gentleman opened the door for me as I walked up and said “ a gentleman always opens the door for a lady”. They made me a decadent cappuccino with half and half while having a great conversation with one of the baristas. Plenty of parking and easy access through a separate door from the gym. Highly recommend you supporting them ~
