Found yourself Atlanta? First things first, you’ll need to figure out where you’re going to get your coffee fix. Not to worry, we’ve got you covered on that front! Whether you’re after a chic hipster hangout, sustainably sourced ingredients, never before seen flavor profiles, or just a simple shot of espresso, these four coffee spots have something for everyone.
1. Moonbird Coffee
You’ll find this friendly, neighborhood cafe in what was once a 19th century general store. Inside, the owners have maintained a vintage charm with wide, wooden counters and mismatched seating. Moonbird sources most of their ingredients locally with a focus on sustainability and a commitment to quality. You can find all the usual suspects here as well as some exciting twists on the classics. Spicy Mexican mocha anyone?
You can find Moonbird here: 5394 Peachtree Rd, Atlanta, GA 30341
2. Chrome Yellow Trading Co.
If you have a hot yoga subscription, patchwork tattoos, or call yourself a freelance graphic designer, then Chrome Yellow Trading Co. could be just the place for you! Think industrial-chic minimalism with complex, cutting edge blends. Not only do the team at Chrome Yellow spend their Saturdays slinging out maple oat cold brews and vanilla bourbon lattes, but they also roast their own beans at the back of the cafe.
You can find Chrome Yellow here: 501 Edgewood Ave SE, Atlanta, GA 30312
3. Condessa Coffee
Condesa Coffee, boasts two locations in Atlanta and serves up artisanal coffee with beans sourced from Counter Culture Coffee. Though they have a delicious food menu, the coffee comes first, and so everything is carefully selected to complement their brews. From 5pm the crew here switches it up and starts serving their evening menu, so you can head down after work and sip on some coffee cocktails instead!
You can find Condessa here: 480 John Wesley Dobbs Ave NE Ste 100, Atlanta, GA 30312
4. Gilly Brew Bar
If you’re after a truly unique experience, you can’t miss Gilly Brew Bar. The team here have become famous for their ‘elixirs’ which they rotate seasonally, pushing the bounds of creativity and flavor. You can expect these intriguing concoctions to contain everything from bitters and herbs to smoke and acorns. What’s more, its historical location is boundary breaking in itself. A black owned business operating out of the slave-built home of a former mayor? Now that’s the kind of course-correcting we like to see!
You can find Gilly Brew Bar here: 5329 Mimosa Dr, Stone Mountain, GA 30083
