I asked her for sugar free suggestions and she pointed me to a sign. So, the service is really not that great but I like to support local instead of huge chains. I have felt less than appreciated the last couple of visits so I may need to find a new spot the next time I'm here. Maybe they are just big in locals. I'm not sure.

The 8oz size was perfect, I find that acai bowls are often too big. I had a drip coffee and got some of the protein balls to go, too. Everything was good, including the service.

It seems to be more of a City Bowls location that serves Honest Coffee rather than a standalone coffee shop, but that didn't take away from the experience. I ordered the seasonal latte, **The Southern**. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite for me. The flavor felt a little muted, so I asked if they could add some extra Roosevelt syrup. The staff was more than happy to accommodate, and the additional syrup made a noticeable difference. While I probably wouldn't order *The Southern* again, I'm definitely interested in coming back to try the **Bootlegger** or **First Lady**--both sounded much more up my alley. The standout of my visit was the customer service. The staff was incredibly friendly, patient, and genuinely invested in helping me find something I'd enjoy. They asked thoughtful questions about my flavor preferences and made recommendations instead of just taking my order, which I really appreciated. The shop itself was clean, welcoming, and located in a convenient area. Parking is plentiful nearby, though you may have a short walk depending on where you park. Overall, even though my drink wasn't a home run, the excellent service and inviting atmosphere made this a positive first visit, and I'd gladly stop by again to try another latte.

Really great hand pies and the coffee is excellent quality! Will definitely be coming back again.read more

I had a great first experience at Filter coffee today! Upon walking in, I was greeted by the…read moreemployee at the counter with a smile. When I went to the counter, I took a moment to look at the menu, and told him it was the first time in. He took the time to explain the signature flavors, the various ways to order a drink, and even explained the different notes of the coffee beans they offered. I ended up ordering a vanilla cardamom cappuccino to go. The barista brought the coffee to my table, which I found extremely personable and kind, even though they had multiple orders to make. The coffee had great notes of cardamom and vanilla without being overly sweet, which I really appreciated. Even though I got it to go, the drink stayed warm for quite some time, and was in a compostable container. In addition to this, all UAB students actually get 10% off, just make sure to show your Blazer ID. One thing I noticed for future visits is that the tables are quite small, so it may not be the best place to do work or study, especially not in group settings. While it was a pretty quiet space that could be good for studying, the seating is not the most conducive to studying. In addition to this, Filter Coffee is located at 5 points, which makes parking difficult, but that is not the company's fault, just something to note if someone decides to visit. Overall, I definitely see myself going back to Filter and highly recommend it to anyone if they around the 5 Points area for the friendly staff, great coffee, and a welcoming atmosphere.

They have a drive through on both sides of the building. A young man helped me promptly. I ordered the chicken salad and a Vulcan iced latte. The chicken salad pack comes with pita chips and hummus. The chicken salad was delicious. The amount they put on the sandwich is generous. The hummus was a tiny scoop for the number of pita chips. You can order extra hummus for an additional charge, however. The latte was good and strong. I love a bold coffee. However, it wasn't as smooth as I prefer my coffee. It had a bit of a bitter punch like Starbucks. The flavor was good though and I did finish it. The menu is limited for food options, but for a quick and easy lunch or coffee, it's perfect!

I felt like the prices were a bit higher than other shops, but I'm one to pay the price if it means the coffee beans are quality and that the staff is paid a living wage. With the prices being what they are, I was not keen on the extra charge for an alt milk. There is plenty of indoor seating and a merchandise area where you can buy coffee, equipment, and shirts. They sell Proud Mary Coffee, as well as Rowan Coffee Roasters (which they currently use for drinks). Laptops are not allowed on the weekends-- gotta love that intentional disconnect from technology to connect with humans irl. :)

It was so surprising- It had a sweet and fruity taste, and I asked the owner about it and he said it's a special type of coffee fermented with fruits and that he cycles through different blends for the iced coffee often. I love the intention and creativity put in to the process. I wasn't a huge fan of the flavor and he offered me to try the cold brew instead, which was very kind and a relief because I hate telling anyone I don't like a drink! The cold brew was much more up my alley, very strong and dark and it was great without any syrup or creamer. I love the interior of the shop and the sense of comfort you get being in there. They had a ton of coffee beans And I asked the owner which would be the best dark roast and he picked one out for me that's been pretty good so far (although not as dark as I expected). My friend got a dirty chai and I don't think she was too thrilled with it. But I would definitely come back to try some new things!

We ended up moving to a booth in the back, which was more comfortable and a little warmer. It does get loud as the day goes on, so I recommend bringing headphones.
