15 Best Charlotte, North Carolina, Coffee Shops | Eater Carolinas

"The Hobbyist is a coffee and bottle shop, and while right off of busy North Davidson Street in a modern shopping center, it’s leisurely and etched with character inside. It’s situated like a long corridor, with draping plants, local knick-knacks and tables at the front, bar stools and wine racks in the middle, and cozy couches and vintage art in the back. The coffee drinks here are made from specialty Boone roaster Hatchet Coffee. The salty-sweet black walnut latte and brown sugar pumpkin latte are must-trys this fall, and the abundant local tea selections from the Memoire are blended beauties. Also, the mugs to stay are a generous size and there’s free wifi — two little wins. On Mondays, get $1 off drip coffee, because every dollar counts in the costly coffee world. The Hobbyist is open until 9 p.m. on weekdays and 10 p.m. on weekends, which means when the caffeine craving hits no matter the time, this is the spot." - Kayleigh Ruller
