After my mom's birthday brunch, we headed here for a quick pick me up before getting back on the road. Friendly service and tasty drinks. My sister and her husband, own a local coffee and dessert truck so they chatted up with the employees who were super kind. I loved the cool, clean aesthetics. The bathroom was clean and added and necessary bonus. They have complimentary water. read more

Dropped in for a little coffee. The service was a bit slow. And you have to order and pick up at the bar. Ambience is cute but there is a limited seating area inside and a bit more tables outside. I don't know about the rest of the menu, but the espresso is horrible. Not only was it cold but it tasted vinegary and the guantity was ridiculous for the preice. Not sure how you can screw up an espresso in a coffee shop. read more

Upon entrance, waited patiently at the counter for the employees to acknowledge us, took much longer than it should have. $44 later after ordering two coffees and two BLTA found no avocado on either sandwich, asked about getting some and watched the cook bare hand cut it and put in a small bowl. Whatever, start to bite in to the sandwich and feel something slimy, oh, it's literally black wilted lettuce. 0/10 I've legit had better BLT's from a gas station. read more

I'm not a coffee drinker but I absolutely love Chai and Matcha. The interior was nice and they were playing good music, a cute little outside area as well, staff was quiet but friendly. But my Iced Chai was just not it. I like to branch out and try new local coffee shops but none of them can seem to really make a good chai and unfortunately that includes this shop. I'm assuming they use the powder and it must've not been mixed in or shaken well enough because there were massive chunks at the bottom of my drink. Honestly how can you stand there and send out a drink that looks like this? It tasted so watered down and I was so disappointed because I frequent this shopping center. I tried to give it a chance and even tried stirring it myself but after drinking about a third of it I threw it away. I'd rather just burn my money and not experience the disappointment again. I hope they go back to the drawing board with this one.. read more

Not Just Coffee has a relaxed industrial vibe. The coffee art is too cute & there is a nice variety of beverages & breakfast bites on the menu. The location is a bit intimate, however it is a nice spot. Thank you! read more

I come here often and my experience is consistent every time. Staff is always very friendly and the service is good. I'm typically visiting to grab an OG avocado toast or some other breakfast item and definitely a coffee. I tend to go for their seasonal specials which are always a hit. This is a great place to chill, work or converse. The patio has plenty of seating with heaters for added warmth. read more

The coffee is so incredibly delicious, the ambiance is perfect and for service MILES absolutely ROCKS!! I wasn't too sure what I wanted so he suggested the latte with orange and he suggested the ricotta biscuit and both were delicious, fantastic what else can I say I love this place, I can only WISH they can come open one in Waxhaw read more

Service is good. Coffee is great. Depending on who's working the shop, it sometimes feels like a techno place others like an actual coffee shop. Overall I would recommend. read more

I love all of the Not Just Coffees in Charlotte. They are all a little different when it comes to the atmosphere and the food menu, but the coffee and espresso is consistently great at all of them. This location is connected to green brothers juice! I've only been on Saturdays, but it always seems to draw a crowd. I've had their drip coffee and cappuccino and both were great. As for food, I can't recommend the yogurt bowl enough! Great portion and the granola is amazing. read more

Basic coffee at craft prices. Quality baked goods/other food. Comfy space, great light. However, the business allows customers to conduct phone/video calls, which makes this an unpleasant place to have to be. If you want to hear Charlotte bank+golf bros get heated and loud on phone calls, this is the place for you. read more

our coffee was very good and out breakfast was tasty the staff was helpful. The vibe was very cutesie

As with every NJC location, I'm a big fan. The vanilla sugar latte (hot or iced) and pour-overs are my goto coffees, but the avacado toast lures me in as well. I also enjoy the seasonal fall spice latte when it's available. Located off Park Road, you'll find this location in a Food Lion shopping center. There's also an Inizio Pizza next door if you find yourself craving coffee and pizza. In addition to the indoor and bar seating, there's also several tables available on their covered patio. This is a smaller location though, so don't be the one to sit and hog the Wi-Fi. Let others migrate in and out for good business. Parking is ample and they are open seven days a week. Order ahead via the Odeko app and your items will be ready to grab from the counter when you arrive. read more

On my way to the weekly food shop, I stopped in to get a caffeine boost. Friendly service with everyone behind the counter wearing masks properly. They've switched to electronic payments only so no cash at this time. Even though cortado is not on the menu, they knew what it is and took my order for one. A few minutes later, the young lady brought it to my table (table service!) and it was perfect. A cortado is half expresso and half steamed (not foamed) milk and it's supposed to be served in a short glass. And that's what I got today. Perfect presentation! The coffee was delicious. Nice and rich, good flavor, with the right amount of milk. It was exactly the hit I needed to start my shopping day! NJC is a quiet spot with seats for sitting and perhaps doing some laptop work. They have free wifi and I spotted power outlets. On a nice day (not today, it was cold), the big windows open for fresh air. [Review 16506 overall - 3159 in North Carolina - 14 of 2022.] read more

I had this nice coffee shop bookmarked and decided to check it out on a rainy day. They a a BIG latte and that was a winner for me, their food options were good as well, limited, but good. I had the breakfast sandwich with bacon, cheese and egg on a sourdough bread and it was just a good addition to my latte. They also have a sister store, you can access from inside for smoothies and juices. I'll come back for that next time as I do love this neighborhood. The shop wasn't packed as they have a good sitting area both inside and outside, but their crowd seemed to come in and enjoy their drinks while walking. It's a nice spot to dog watch as most of their costumers had a dog and they were all sooo cute. I'll definitely will come back! read more

I guess it really just IS coffee... Sad to give this but I think it's a must.. the coffee was good and all but we came because they also had food.. but the employe told us that they don't do food after 2pm, which we didnt argue... but AFTER we ordered we checked the time and it was only 1:59.. we got there and where ready to order by 1:40 ish...because of that we needed a moment to think of a place to eat. But after we order we realized that the employee lied to us and we tried to confront her, she completely ignored us. We wanted to at least get a 'sorry' or something, but we even saw the kitchen working in the back.. completely ruined the whole experience and feel of the place. We ended up going next door for food and had an AMAZING time at the pizza place. 10/10 recommend Inizio Pizza. read more

Stopped in due to another cafe being closed for repair. Nice location, seating inside and out. When we arrived it was full but people quickly rotating through. Ordered a latte with a cheese and herb scone, delicious. My wife had the breakfast sandwich. It was small for the price but she said it was very good. Service was quick and simple. read more

On a beautiful day the ambiance is amazing. Even though it was raining this time the patio was covered so could still sit outside and enjoy the area. I only had coffee but my friend had food which she enjoyed. The service and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and I'll be back. read more

Not just coffee, indeed! I'm certainly glad we made the trek down to Dilworth from our hotel in Uptown. We had heard from one of our local friends that this place served up excellent Negronis, and boy, was he correct! So good, that my wife and I both had to get two rounds! I also ordered a cortado, which made very little sense during happy hour, but I can't go to a coffee spot and NOT get a coffee drink. I'm glad I did! The cortado was perfectly steamed, and the espresso was nicely-pulled! Oddly enough, chasing a cortado with a Negroni turned out to be amazing. Sounds kind of nasty, but there was a chocolate-covered berry finish that was really pleasant. I would do that again, without question. So, expertly-prepared coffee beverages, and a top-notch cocktails? What else could you want? Well, the space is awesome, too! We had our dog, so we sat out on their small patio, but the inside was also really nice and cozy! To top all of those positives, the staff at this location were awesome! Super friendly and outgoing. When we told the bartender that we heard he made a great Negroni he was up for the challenge, even stopping by to check on them and nerding about gin with us for a few minutes. Really nice people! As we sat outside, watching the sun set and sipping delicious cocktails, my wife and I joked that if we lived in Charlotte, we knew where we'd have to live so we could do this all of the time! read more

This is my first time coming to Not Just Coffee and I was really impressed. I ordered a hot Matcha latte with almond milk (lightly sweetened) and it was one of the best Matcha lattes I've ever had. The place also has a cozy ambience and is not too loud. The only drawback is that seating is a little bit limited so if you want to go there to work (like I did) it's best to come earlier in the day. Next time I come I will try the food! read more

This is walkable from Freedom Park, about 27 minutes and it is so cute! The building is in brick and there's cute inside and outdoor, covered seating. Highly recommend walking over here or ordering your drink to enjoy at Freedom Park. Not just coffee has great drinks and their current summer special is a strawberry matcha that comes either hot or iced. So good!! read more

Located in the lovely Dilworth neighborhood, NJC has all the tradish coffee selections, and right now Pumpkin Spice and Apple Pie. While I didn't partake, the regular latte I had was very good. The place is really cute, has indoor and enclosed screened seating outside, there was a mix of Lululemon mommies and young professionals working on computers, it looks like a relaxing spot for work or visiting. read more

Not Just Coffee might just be my favorite coffee shop in the city! Their "Fall Spice" latte is to die for! The fall flavors and aromas are so amazing and tasty! A splash of oat milk and you're good to go! They also make their very own homemade pop tarts. How dope is that!? read more

Heard this place has been off the chain recently and checked it out after some pizza a INIZIO next door. It was super relaxed and I loved all the finishes - industrial modern. What really struck me were the two large "garage" doors that can be opened once the weather stops being stupid cold. This place is definitely going to kill it in the summer. Not much of a coffee "expert" but I also didn't want to be awake the rest of the night, so I opted for the Masala Chai... which was delicious. The tables spin like Disney teacups so just be careful if you are trying to brace yourself on them. I think they are meant to do that so you can adjust the heights. Small and round, they make for great two-person seating, but the large bench that lines the perimeter can make for some tricky seating. My buddy was telling me the last time he went here there were two people sitting next to each other on the bench together (it was super crowded too). Have yet to try their food menu here, but I will definitely be back. The full bar is a nice touch too. read more

This is one of my favorite spots to go to on the weekend. I really like to go because of the amazing coffee. They use Counter Culture coffee bean which I believe is one of the best beans. I tend to get either the caramel ice latte or a hot latte depending on the weather outside or what I am in the mood for. I have brought multiple people here and they all love the coffee. Also, I enjoy getting breakfast here too. I usually get the avocado toast. Yes, I know I am a millennial but I do think theirs is one of the best. It has sun-dried tomatoes and I think they use rosemary oil. The other food like the cinnamon toast is really good. I haven't really had bad food here. read more

My husband and I were in Charlotte visiting for a friend's wedding, and we wanted to find a good local coffee shop. Noticed the great reviews for Not Just Coffee on Yelp, so figured it would be good to try. This place did not disappoint! We ordered two lattes and shared a chocolate chip cookie. The latte included their seasonal syrup, which I can't recall, but it was excellent! We will definitely be back next time we're in town. read more

Holy vanilla latte, Batman! In all seriousness, I took the kids in on a recent Friday morning for a decaf vanilla latte because, honestly, what kid needs MORE energy? They were delighted not to be subjected to a paper straw because--can we all agree--paper straws are the absolute worst?! The straw provided was a biodegradable something or other but it didn't matter because it didn't become a mouthful of waterlogged, squishy paper 5 minutes into a beverage. They also got an oatmeal cookie (they remarked that it was raisin-free, for all you raisin haters out there). I opted for an iced decaf americano and it was really good. They use counter culture coffee, so it was earthy with the sort of "green" flavor, but not in an unpleasant way. I believe the roast is "Slow Motion." Fitting for us old ladies who drink decaf all day. All the Gen Z kids working the bar were kind snd helpful, cranking out both Odeko and in-person orders at a consistent pace. Friendly, but not fawning. The young lady working the register made some friendly comments to a regular who walked in to order right after us. I love seeing staff and regular clientele interact. Outdoor and indoor seating makes it the perfect spot to meet a friend or enjoy a morning to oneself. I'll probably bring the kids back again soon on one of our customary Friday morning jaunts. We've been friends of NJC for many years and this location feels like the real deal, just smaller. read more

Big disappointment. They should rename this place "Not Much Coffee". All portions of drinks and food are small for the price you pay. If you like spending a lot of money for not much coffee or food, you'll love this place. read more

The cold brew here is exceptional. It's strong but got good flavor. I've been a couple times and the hot lattes were pretty consistently good which is hard to do. Yogurt was good too. Only downside is it's a small location, could be hard to get a spot to sit. Staff is always friendly. read more

Went in around 730am on a Monday and there was only 1 person in front of me. I ordered an Americano. It was ready pretty quickly and was very good. It was super cute inside, I wish I had time to hang out for a bit.
