There were so many pastry options but we decided on the cinnamon roll and it was so good warmed up! The vanilla latte tasted like good quality coffee. We got the roman roast sandwhich, which is apparently the most popular food item on the menu. The beef was tender and juicy and the fries were perfectly crispy. You could definitely split this with someone, it's a huge sandwich. We also got the campo italiano focaccia flatbread. The focaccia part was really good, it was fluffy and also crispy. The chicken on top was kind of dry though. I loved the vibes of the inside, they have free wifi so it's a perfect place to do some work or study! There's a good bit of parking, too. The guy working there was really nice. Overall I definitely want to come back to try more of their menu and pastries! I was too full for gelato but I got a sample of their dubai chocolate flavor and it was so good.

ive been going to vecchia pizzeria for YEARS now (which is just as good as this place). so when i…read moreheard they opened a cafe and gelato place i knew i had to go! absolutely incredible all around! we decided to stop by for lunch, coffee, and to get a bit of work done. we went midday during the middle of the week, and there were plenty of cozy spots open and free wifi. definitely a place i would go to if i need to study! the decor is super cute and staff was super friendly! starting off w/the latte: i got the iced vanilla latte and the color was perfect! the latte was superb the roman roast sandwich is one of the most popular options and it was delicious, came with perfectly crisp fries. the flatbread was 'campo italiano' and had some chicken on it. the bread was amazing! i only had a small spoon of gelato to try out the flavors, but will definitely be coming back for gelato or maybe an affogato. overall, no notes! perfect for a date night or to come midday for a quick lunch!

My niece , mom and me came here on a Saturday morning to kill a little time before heading somewhere else. I was the only one that ordered a drink and of course I got a Cortado. It was delicious and wonderfully made! The gentleman working ( the owner) was so friendly and accommodating- definitely made this a great experience! Adventurer's coffee co is a great addition to downtown Calera & they are still going strong 7 years later!!!

I've been a couple of times now, and I've enjoyed my experience each time. They offer brewed coffee and handcrafted espresso drinks, plus teas from local favorite Piper and Leaf. The atmosphere is very laid back. One side is the coffee shop side, with an eclectic collection of soft sofas and tables and chairs. If you go through an opening in the wall that looks very similar to the entrance of the dungeon, you'll find the gaming shop, an area for D and D players, and a bar that serves a limited selection of beer and wine. It's definitely worth the drive to check out this unique spot. Check the

The cappuccino was stronger than what I usually go for, but smooth, not bitter at all. The ambiance is really nice, mostly tables and chairs with one cozy area that has softer seating. A few people were working on laptops, so it seems like a good spot to post up for a bit. Parking was easy too. Will definitely be back!

Having opened in 2019, Baba Java entered the area's coffee shop scene at a time when coffee for…read moremost local residents was still associated with one single chain. This was the first location of Baba Java and has since expanded through the city. Ran my Omani entrepreneurs, this little coffee shop became quite popular over the years. The staff working here are mostly teenagers or college students, who are very attentive and professional despite their young age. The owner clearly picked out incredible folks to be here who make Baba Java feel both welcoming and well kept. The interior of the space is fairly basic coffee shop design, but admittedly, a little bit dated in 2026 and lacks the unique vibe of some other independent coffee shops. Window views facing the strip mall parking lot don't create much of an ambiance either. With that said, design is not the main thing to come here for. The coffee is excellent and priced very reasonably, offering a great value for an establishment of this sort. There is easy to access WiFi and an overall feeling of being welcomed. A solid little coffee shop that allows customers to support some local business owners instead of a big chain.

I'm so excited that they have opened up a new brunch spot in Pelham! We visited about an hour…read morebefore closing on a Sunday, hoping to miss the church crowd, and we were successful! The space is by Taco Mac, and the new construction is bright, open, and welcoming. They have a pet friendly patio. I got the deep fried French toast, and while I'm more of a fan of traditional French toast, this was still pretty good, with the perfect amount of whipped cream and berries. My boyfriend's breakfast burrito was DELICIOUS, I'll be getting that next time. Definitely a welcome addition to Pelham's breakfast and brunch scene!

We revisited 4/3/2026 at 7:52 am. Was surprisingly empty, got a window booth seat and saw they had…read moreNew* Spring cocktails. I'm a sucker for cocktails at any hour so I tried the Citrus mint Spritz . It was ok . Drinks once again are not their specialty but they are trying so I do appreciate that! I tried shrimp and grits this time w/red eye gravy. The gravy had a sort of vinegar taste and filled with bacon. I liked it better than the shrimp honestly. I would get it again sans the shrimp. I think I just don't like shrimp for breakfast lol. My husband got chicken and waffles. The waffle is thick and the chicken is lightly breaded. The chicken is the top thing to get here!!! It's not heavily battered and they filleted the chicken breast. No legs, or thighs here. We personally liked this. Service was fast and friendly. She always checked on us . We appreciate this. All in all it checked all my boxes 1. Good food 2. Good and fast service 3. Friendly employees 4. Clean bathrooms Unlike elites who think I don't give 5 star reviews to local places . I do indeed . I just have certain standards. They met them this time and that's why they get my coveted 5 * this visit. CONGRATS!!!! You deserve it !

Noir's location inside the Hoover Library is incredibly convenient. Whether you're visiting the…read morelibrary or just stopping by for coffee, it's easy to pop in. I would love to see them add mobile ordering in the future so you could order ahead or have your drink brought to wherever you're working in the library. I've been twice now, and both times I ordered the Golden Hour Latte. It's excellent--the cold foam is incredibly thick, and the flavor and texture are spot on. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Noir. On my first visit, I also tried the Chicken Pesto Panini with the pasta salad. The panini was delicious, though I'd personally prefer a different cheese than mozzarella. The real surprise was the pasta salad. At first glance, I wasn't sure I'd like it, but after one bite, I wished I had ordered a second container to take home. I don't usually enjoy creamy pasta salads, but this one completely changed my mind. The staff have been friendly, attentive, and happy to offer menu recommendations. On one visit, I arrived about 10-15 minutes before closing, and they were still welcoming. They explained that food service ends an hour before closing, but drinks are available until closing time. They currently follow the Hoover Library's hours and are open Wednesday through Sunday, with plans to expand to Mondays and Tuesdays once they have enough staff. Overall, Noir has quickly become one of my favorite local coffee spots. Great drinks, surprisingly good food, and excellent customer service make it well
