Best Coffee Shops in Huntsville, Alabama

If you are like me, coffee is a favorite way to wake up.  We sleepy folks drag ourselves out of bed each day and stumble into a local café for our morning caffeine fix.  Huntsville coffee shops offer a variety of unique blends, flavors, and signature drinks.

Local coffee shops are a great way to get to know a city.  You’ll get to try local taste trends, find out about upcoming events and activities, and maybe even make a new friend.

Huntsville’s coffee scene is ever evolving, with new shops popping up across the city.

With seating inside and out, Honest is a Huntsville favorite, mine too!
