I had not been to this location in awhile but thankfully was in the area. Excited to see the seasonal offerings, I was also glad to see Tyler! He is always so pleasant and accommodating! I tried the Paloma Sunrise and it did not disappoint. Unfortunately I had to switch to a larger cup because mine was leaking. Tyler was quick to offer a solution. The Sunrise actually tasted better 'upside down' when poured into another cup. Such a clean, fun place!
This score might seem low to some, as Night Swim Coffee is a very popular local coffee shop with multiple locations throughout the city. I agree that their coffee is very good, but this particular location I'm not in love with. It serves its purpose in that it is a convenient quick stop for bankers working Uptown and is located in the new Legacy Union that hosts workers from the ACC to Bank of America. But to me it feels too sterile. There is nothing in the way of decor, it's too bright, it doesn't seem like a place I'd want to spend any time at, just a place to grab a coffee and go. Again, if this is what you are looking for, then it works. I myself have stopped in when I have a brief window to grab a coffee before a meeting. But for me, when I look for a coffee shop, I like a place I can stop in and relax. A place that feels warm and cozy. I'd much rather walk a little further to one of the other cafes Uptown if I have the time. Cliff notes version, is this place has good coffee, but feels to busy and corporate to be a vibe.
Great house made goodies and they switch out seasonally I believe. I loved the banana nut zucchini initially but I haven't been here in a few months and they now have pumpkin bread which is really good as well. They did have really savory grits but that has been removed from the menu as well. I had the brown butter rum latte and that was just ok. Love having them in my building as an option.
This place was a little difficult to find, we kept trying to circle the block but turns out it's inside an office building. Oops! I had the cold brew and avocado toast. A little expensive but man that avocado toast was DELISH!
Best mocha in Charlotte! I come to town every few years from Berkeley, CA and always stop here, even though it's the opposite direction from my office. The house made chocolate sauce is perfect! Just sweet enough, just rich enough. The beans are smooth and silky. Not too much acid and not bitter. I ask for extra hot and it's always just right. The folks behind the counter are always friendly and get my morning off to a good start. I try other spots out of curiosity and always regret it and end up coming back here.
I have frequented NSC several times since my first review. I really love their yogurt parfait and in the summer I couldn't stop ordering the golden milk latte: Here Comes the Sun. So good! I'll go elsewhere for my avocado toast, but I'm a fan of this coffee shop for other things.
Awesome new spot in the Bank of America building on the second floor!! The aesthetic is great, and there are lots of quiet seating spots to chat, have a meeting, or work. I loved my iced matcha latte - They have a sweetened and unsweetened option. I got sweetened, but I would do unsweetened next time as the simple syrup was pretty sweet. The matcha and froth was perfect, though! The peppermint tea was also amazing, and the "for here" serving ware/presentation was very pleasing and instagrammable!! Lastly, I got a plain bagel and cream cheese and it was INCREDIBLE. The cream cheese serving was very adequate, and the bagel was really unique and tasty! It was on the airy side and tasted like it was made with corn potentially?? It just had a corn tortilla essence that I loved but can't explain. Highly recommend!!
Such a great coffee shop and location! I love the vibe and the coffee is so.good. Great location, great staff, awesome coffee and seating and music playlist and on and on and on. So fortunate that they are extremely close to my hood and will be there often!
Cute breakfast takeout spot with a good selection of coffee and tea. I got an egg sandwich and it was delicious! The baristas here really know their coffee well.
For the two star reviewers that aren't subjective, I recommend you give this location another try! The service, like their other locations, is friendly and thorough. I greatly appreciate a coffee shop that can speak to the origin, roasting process, supply, and the complexity of their beans. Not to mention their food is locally sourced and immense thought is put into their recipe designs. Night Swim takes their craft seriously and I'll continue to favorite this business until another supersedes their service delivery (if that's possible). For reviews putting their atmosphere into question, do note that this shop is in an office building. The setting, personality, and vibe are not going to be what you find at their Oakhurst location.
Nice smooth coffee! Would go here again! Lots of great seating if you work from home and need to get out of the house.

Had to stop in to try the Blue Velvet - a house made blueberry lemon syrup paired with matcha! The flavors blend together so well and truly bring a bright and springy flavor. I also LOVE that they ask if I want my matcha sweetened. They use a very high quality matcha, so typically I won't don't get my matcha sweetened. Love the atmosphere here. Great place to network and or knock out some work. Lines move quick and the staff are very friendly! read more

My coworker rants and raves about this place, so I decided to give them a try today. I ordered a Latte and added the Carmel flavor which totaled over $7. Very pricey for the size and the coffee was just okay. The girls working didn't have a friendly vibe at all. Very dry. I definitely won't return based on price and mid service. read more

I've been to three coffee shops in the last 24 hours and this is hands down the best cold brew I've had. The food- "plough boy" grits bowl with bacon and a poached egg was just as incredible. The employees were super kind and the atmosphere was great. Can't say enough good things about this place! read more

Wow! I have never experienced something like this but here we go! I tried out this place and really liked their matcha latte but i cant often go there since its too far. My husband was excited to surprise me with my fav drink & asked for no ice since he will need to drive 30 min and the ice will melt and make the taste all yukky. So he goes in and asks for the drink with no ice & 6.50 later he is handed a half full cup & when he questions it he is told that this is the amount without the ice and that ice fills 4oz of the drink!!! I have never ever heard of this & wow!! read more

I tried the masala chai and it is nicely balanced between sweet and spice. I came in the morning so the place was empty. It's located on the second floor of the bank of america tower. I do wish they had more seasonal drinks though. The seating is more aesthetic than comfortable with the couches being quite low and the chairs hard, which may make it hard to sit and work for a longer period. Parking is at Legacy parking deck and is not validated. not a huge fan of the space. their other locations is more accessible. read more

New Nice coffee shop! Friendly employees. Avocado too simple- thin slice of toast 1/2 avocado left me hungry for $8.75. Latte was ok, but was lacking espresso flavor. Will not be back read more

Inside of the Bank of America building by the Stonewall light rail stop, is the most aesthetically pleasing coffee shop in all of Uptown. I got the iced coffee with a splash of almond milk and it was incredibly smooth. I enjoyed their glassware option when you plan to stay inside. The music taste was so soothing and such happy vibes. The barista was nice and I got a lot of work done. I totally recommend this place. read more
