Not Just Coffee - Jay Street

Stopped by this cafe before check-in during our Charlotte trip. The modern interior with wooden elements and spacious layout gave off a cozy vibe right off the bat. We ordered a matcha latte, chai latte, and an almond croissant. The lattes were pretty milk-heavy, so the matcha and chai flavors didn't really come through. The almond croissant was generous enough to tide us over, though. It was a quick visit, but I could see this place being great for chilling out or getting some work done. Solid spot overall!

Nice, spacious cafe for hanging out and/or working. Lots of tables outside when the weather is nice. I like that they also serve food if you're looking for a light breakfast or snack. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about their various coffee drinks, but it would be helpful too if the menu provided the drink sizes.

Really enjoyed our time visiting. The cold brew with vanilla and caramel. The tea was really unique. It was a relaxed vibe and the drinks came out at a good pace. The staff was friendly and helpful. A good place to do some work or catch up with people.Food: 5/5

What a cute and quaint space. Make sure you look at the menu and get specific. The staff can be new. Ask the Caramel Macciatto to be made like a latte to have the American experience vs. traditionalFood: 5/5

Fabulous coffee shop where I had a delicious Americano and the most incredible avocado toast on yummy bread with pickled onions and sun-dried tomatoes – absolutely delicious! I would definitely go back and highly recommend!Food: 5/5

This coffee shop was high quality and offered a nice open air environment. The employees were friendly and my order was made promptly even though they were busy. However, the prices do not reflect the portion sizes. A bacon egg and cheese was $10. Total order of two small coffees + two small biscuits was $32. Average tastes, nothing special. If you've got money to spend, go for it. If not, 7-11 is around the corner.

Great coffee, super service, and last but not least, they can prepare any sandwich gluten free!!Food: 5/5

Absolutely wonderful coffee shop. Great jazz music. Excellent coffee. Loved the atmosphere. Best oatmeal cookie I’ve had in a very long time. Iced and hot lattes were superb.Parking spacePlenty of parkingParking optionsFree parking lot

Stopped here for a late morning coffee & breakfast and loved it! “Not just coffee” is exactly right because their ricotta/jam biscuit and seasonal quiche were absolutely delicious. Great outdoor patio seating to enjoy your morning coffee on.Food: 4/5

One of my favorite places in Charlotte; I visit it whenever I’m in the area. They have an amazing atmosphere and the aesthetic is very pleasant. They have an excellent selection of drinks and their food is delicious. It is definitely more of a place to come get a bite to eat with a friend or respond to emails then it is to just get a coffee to go.
