Coffee Republic | Huntersville

Description: A coffee shop and coworking space serving craft lattes, espresso drinks, drip coffee, pour-overs, cold brew, tea, matcha, chai, smoothies, all-day breakfast, and fresh pastries. Located inside a historic brick building, the café features large front windows, exposed-brick walls, table and counter seating, fast Wi-Fi, and an upstairs coworking area with dedicated desks and reservable meeting rooms. The combination of casual café seating and quieter workspace makes it a comfortable setting for meeting friends, working independently, or holding small meetings.

Comments: Very well-converted old brick house turned coffee shop. Downstairs, there’s a handful of seating. Upstairs, there’s more, but it’s only for those with a coworking membership. There’s a couch in the corner, while the rest is mostly metal chairs and tables, plus bar-style seating with good access to outlets. So it’s a solid place to work remotely.

There’s also an outdoor patio out back that isn’t exactly obvious. You get to it through a heavy door that looks like you probably shouldn’t open it, but you can. Parking is on the street, it's free, but there's other businesses in the area, so you might have to park and walk a little bit. There's a hallway with a little bookshelf too that's a nice touch to the space.

They have truly marvelous cinnamon rolls. I don’t know who their supplier is, but as far as coffee shop cinnamon rolls go, this is one of the best around. It’s not one of those cute little mini cinnamon rolls for $7 that can fit in the palm of your hand. This thing has size. It’s generously iced. It is legitimately an excellent cinnamon roll in every way.
