    Stopped by here to do a little bit of work and reading. The place was very serene inside and out. I spent about 2-3 hours there without even realizing. It was not that crowded when I went. I sat outside and inside. The only downside about being outside is that I wasn't able to find a plug for my laptop, but there are plenty inside. I tried their PSL Forever coffee and it was ok. A bit pricey. Service was pleasant. Will drop by again to enjoy the workspace.

    House Eleven passes the vibe check. It's a coffee shop and bar that uses the genius design of converting an old house into a welcoming space. It has different rooms to chill in that are perfect for studying, catching up with old friends etc. Each room has its own thing going on, all with comfortable furniture. If you can't find a spot inside no worries because they have a patio that's just as laid back. I only came for quick drink but I will be frequenting House Eleven as my go to coffee place. There's no other place quite like it in Birmingham!

    Fruit danish and iced strawberry matcha

    Best pastries and croissants So buttery and decadent Place was lovely with ample sunny and shady areas to sit and do work We caught up with friends I wasn't a fan of my drink strawberry matcha. I'm always trying to appreciate matcha but it's not gonna happen. It's an acquired taste that I can't like. Theirs wasn't very sweet and the strawberry was not coming thru as much as I would like But that fruit danish with the custard was a symphony of yum. Plenty of parking Place is kinda decorated like 3-4 big living rooms with different vibes Employees nice and nonchalant. They stay out of your way but are kind The kids enjoyed the back patio Ac was working good!

    Standing in line isn't too painful in a beautiful place! 072725

    In astrology, the 11th House signifies friendships, social networks, community involvement, hopes, and aspirations. It represents the groups and communities you are involved in, your relationship with friends, and your broader social sphere. It also governs your long-term goals and dreams, and how you contribute to the collective. What a vision to take an older home and renovate it into a beautiful community space. The home is absolutely stunning. The baristas were amazing and the coffee was delicious. Hubby had the Honey Nut Love. Honey in our coffee isn't something we usually do so it was great to try something new. I had the Honey Citrus Fizz with Matcha, Topo Chico, OJ, & honey. They made it light on the OJ & honey for me and it was terrific. It was a busy Sunday morning so we had to wait a bit but there is plenty of comfortable seating while you wait. This is not a drive thru coffee kiosk; everything is made to order and is well worth the wait. Would love to see before & after pix of this beautiful old home. Highly recommend!

    Super cute decor, great coffee and pastries. Lovely place to work or hang. I only went in the am but it also turns into a bar at night! Wish I lived in Birmingham so I could be a regular :(

    This was my second time trying HouseEleven. The Caphe Sua Da is very strong and yummy, but i usually like to ask for more sweetener. I also got the Strawberry Dreams, but it was very disappointing. There wasn't any matcha taste and the strawberries were super sour. Basically tasted like watery strawberries. It was pretty, but I probably would not get that drink again. Wish they would use a higher grade matcha. Everything else was great. The staff were super helpful and friendly. The vibes is great with separate rooms and a back yard for studying or hanging out.

    House Eleven is such a cool space! It's a renovated house which gives it such a cozy atmosphere. There are different rooms each with plenty of seating to pick from. There is also an outdoor patio with plenty of seating. They have coffee, matcha, and tea as well as a full bar. I tried the matcha and was not a fan but I'd love to try their coffee (it's from domestique). You order at the counter and then grab your drinks when they are ready. Perfect place to spend the day studying or to grab drinks with friends. I will definitely be back!

    Vanilla Latte and Ham and Cheese Croissant

    Bruuuhhh this ham and cheese croissant is . The homemade, flaky, buttery croissant is phenomenal! Paired with a delicious vanilla latte makes it even better.

    Paradise Now
    Lori W.

    I stopped in last month while I was in town and loved the vibes. The bartenders were super nice and friendly and the drinks were good. They had my favorite local beer- Paradise Now. Can't wait to come back sometime soon to spend more time in the patio!

    This is a very aesthetically pleasing coffee shop/bar/event space. This is a house that's been converted into a coffee shop and I love it. I ordered an iced chai tea latte with almond syrup ahd a fruit danish. Plenty of seating inside but opted to sit out back. There is a small stage on the back. Super cool place to work or read a book. The owner was there and he was very nice and provided knowledge regarding some of the coffee blends. Highly recommend

    Nice place to hang out., have a meeting or gathering. The inside is like a house with several rooms full of furniture. There is a bar area. Outdoor seatingThey have coffee, teas, pastries, Lemonades. I really wasn't hungry but got an Arnold Palmer anyway. Could have been a little sweeter. I did meet the owner and talked with him and to a few customers. Owner was very nice. Everyone there was super friendly. My wife and daughter loved the drinks they had and the pastries as well. They have an outdoor area in the back with stage. The inside and outside are both groomed very well. There is also street parking and more in a lot to the left side a few lots down. They also turn into a bar later in the day. Very close to the Woodlawn library

    Caramel latte

    Super cute and cozy place!! Everyone was so nice and I loved it they had alot of amazing options I went during the night time and I still had a good caramel latte will be going in the morning! :)

    Ham and cheese croissant & seasonal latte

    I come here all the time, I'm a local neighbor and I love to shop at this family owned business! The service and drinks are absolutely phenomenal, currently listening to bossa nova while I get my work done. I loved the backyard this past spring and summer. Enjoyed fun dj sets and wine chats with a couple of friends. I tell everyone about it, I feel like family here. Drinks are always changing, and I love it. I love coffee because it makes me smile every time. The pastries are always fresh, and I don't have to stand in a crazy long line for them. The cocktails are exactly right and have great fusions! It's a favorite of mine in BHM.

    I finally got to check out Bygones! My friend and I went for a late night bite and a cocktail, and…read morewe sat at the bar. The service was quick and the hospitality was unmatched. They have a food truck that I've heard wonderful things about and I ordered the chicken Caesar salad. It was almost like a chopped Caesar salad and it was just the right amount for a small girl dinner. If you like Parmesan cheese, this is a must order as they do not skimp on that! What was really nice however was that you couldn't tell the food was from a food truck. It was great quality and you are able to order from inside the bar and they deliver it to you. That was a great service. I can't quite remember which cocktail I got, but it was very delicious and at one point the server had even given me a new chilled glass so my drink would remain cold as I sipped on it. This is definitely a great date night spot or just a place to grab a drink with friends, definitely a little more upscale as we were there in the evening, so the lights were dim. I won't drop my rating as it's spring time in the South but I remember being cold immediately as I walked in- but that's typical for a lot of places.

    The Garage kicks ass. Tons of history, extremely dope vibe, great service, solid sandwiches/soup…read more If you get the chance go check out this historical gem tucked away in Birmingham. Voted one of the top bars to travel to in multiple magazines. The owner basically built a bar around his workshop. The middle looks way better during the summer, but a must visit if in the area.

    We had a lovely lunch at the Garage!…read more Their sandwiches are fresh and made to order. It's very straight forward and you choose all of your own toppings. Soup changes daily and this day was chickpea and chorizo. Nothing life changing about it but it wasn't bad. We walked into a small, dark, crowded dive bar and ordered amongst several other people after waiting in line shoulder to shoulder with other customers. I say this not to complain (because with a crowd like this on a random weekday, they're obviously doing something right) but to take your kids in car seats (‍) with caution. Crowds in small spaces stress me out and it would have been even worse if we'd had the boys with us. I'd also highly suggest going on a day when you can sit outside. There's very minimal seating inside. They do have a lovely, spacious patio that also feels like a garden with plenty of trees for shade. However, they make it clear they don't want dogs there. Parking was horrific. A narrow street with cars on each side. We barely fit through it. If there wouldn't have been an open spot on it, I'm not sure what the next option is because I didn't see anywhere else and this street only held so many. I would dine here again because the sandwiches were fresh and delicious and they obviously know what they're doing! I was pleasantly surprised that they had prosecco as well. Just heed my few warnings and you'll enjoy as well!

I am so very glad that this restaurant came across something I was looking at recently. I popped on in on a Wednesday to see what I could see. I was pleased. Liver and onions will always put a smile on my face! I love a good meat and two cafeteria vibe. I had fried green tomatoes & turnips. Both sides were outstanding. Now what I did not like what that rice! Way too much butter but I do believe it was still on stand by from breakfast. I really appreciate the nice lady getting it for me so that's really why I didn't refuse it. The service was really nice and friendly by all the staff. I loved my food. I loved the sweet tea ( with lemons). And I looooved the cherry / pineapple cobbler I had to go. It's tastes like nothing I've ever had before.

Fortunately they did and I got a good size portion of chick and dressing, cranberry sauce, creamed corn and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. I wish I could have gotten less starches but I'm grateful for the pick up nonetheless. What I'm curious about.., Why the use of tumeric in the chicken and dressing? I was born and raised in the Ham so I'm used to the way we normally do it. The look threw me off. It was as if yellow food coloring was used. The chicken was overdone as well. If not for these two, I would have given this a 5 star. But I can't get over the yellow.
