These Are Atlanta’s Essential Coffee Shops

"Located on the first floor of Southbound restaurant in Chamblee, Moonbird is owned and operated by Atlanta barista Kacee Hayes. The menu here includes everything from drip coffee and cappuccino, to cold brew and mocha lattes. Order a scone or breakfast burrito, set up the laptop, and sip coffee while doing a little work at this charming coffee shop or out on the patio." - Beth McKibben, Sarra Sedghi

9 Best Coffee Shops in Atlanta

"You’ll feel like an insider just for finding Moonbird Coffee, since the only signage is a small sandwich board outside Southbound, a restaurant built in a 19th-century general store in downtown Chamblee. The cafe serves all the usual suspects here (drip coffee, lattes, mochas, cappuccinos, and cold brew), as well as seasonal specialty drinks like lavender lattes and spicy Mexican mochas. All of the beans are sourced from CoffeeM, a Lawrenceville-based roaster. Tea drinkers will find a selection loose-leaf teas and tea lattes, all made with Chamblee’s ZenTea." - Jennifer Bradley Franklin

The people running the place are nice and accommodating. The coffee tasted good. No complaints in those areas. The breakfast burrito was really small for how much it cost. Seriously it cost me almost $12 for a small latte and a breakfast burrito that was maybe the size of my palm. I wish the owners the best because they are good people. I really want to iterate that the people taking orders up front are not at any sort of fault. I just cant justify coming here with these prices unfortunately.

While today was my first patronage at Moonbird Coffee, it was not my first time at Southbound. However, this morning’s atmosphere was 100% coffee shop: friendly greetings, delicious coffee, plenty of space to sit, cozy design - passing train included. Yes we were not ready to have to leave at 11am, but that just means we’ll be back!

Love the accent brick walls throughout the building, adding an urban loft feel to your coffee sips. Things you should know: I. PARKING The coffee shop is within downtown Chamblee, but luckily you don't have to parallel park. There's a free private parking lot out back ~ easy. II. SERVICE Personable and welcoming. They'll make you feel at home. Keep in mind they close at 11:30 a.m. so don't wait to get your coffee kick in. III. QUALITY The pastries are made fresh inhouse ~ I got the ginger lemon scone. It's light and not too sweet. If you want something sweeter, go for a muffins. The coffee is standard, but I loved getting the option of 3 to 4 shots in my iced Americano. Not many locations ask in that way. IV. CAPACITY Fair amount of available seats, but they fill almost up around 10 a.m. People camp out here to work/study so don't feel judged if you want to do the same..!

Love this coffee shop. They have such a comfy vibe as soon as you enter. Moon bird is on the top of a bar. They have a balcony and a big enough room to fit a decent size squad. The owner is super friendly and offers her own recommendation along the way.

Surprised the coffee shop was very spacious. On the second floor on top of restaurant Southbound. It was a nice quite place people can work on their laptops. Even though downstairs was very busy and loud, but upstairs was like another world - cozy and peaceful. Very nice.

A quiet, cozy mix of trendy and quaint tucked away in Chamblee. The coffee shop, occupying the bar of South Bound's upstairs event space, feels a bit like a concept that hasn't come into it's own. Even so, it seems to be an effective partnership keeping the building busy before the restaurant opens. We noticed they have a projection screen set up where the stage would be during private events. It was a nice touch (cartoons for the kids!), but detracted from the quaint appeal of the decor and interrupted a lovely brick wall. If I might be so bold, I'd suggest removing the screen and simply whitewashing the brick for a more aesthetic effect. Of course atmosphere alone won't sustain a cafe. My wife and I tried the Mexican Mocha, a blueberry muffin, and a sweet potato pie. None of it was disappointing, but the pie was a particular pleasure. Also, the warmth of cayenne pepper or chili powder in the latte was perfect for a cold Autumn morning. Overall, the cafe menu is simple & streamlined. They cover all the essential bases, and don't waste time with a big variety of speciality drinks. Unfortunately, that simplicity doesn't jive with the ornate setting. Moonbird is a grab-and-go coffee bar in a big, cozy, sit down space. Happily, the coffee is delicious so it's a minor complaint. If we lived in the neighborhood, this would easily become my daily haunt. I don't know that it's worth driving across town for. If it's a bit of a hike for you, maybe plan your visit so that you can enjoy the main restaurant as well.

This place is so adorable! Such a gem. It’s spacious with a ton of nice outdoor seating & styled beautifully ~ loved their caramel banana cappuccino. 10/10 recommend ☕️🖤✨

This is really nice atmosphere for a quick drink and bite. For working remote, its not so friendly. No charging stations and not open for long. I get it though, people need to keep it moving so they can make money. I did enjoy my coffee and the lady who helped us at the bar was super nice, welcoming and patient!

Amazing coffee, breakfast burittos, and friendly service! Been enjoying black coffee lately and even their black coffee is so so good! However, my usual is lattes and they always have new seasonal flavors to keep you coming back! Moonbird is located in downtown Chamblee within South Bound restaurant. Only drawback is that they have limited hours but definitely worth coming!

We loved the atmosphere. The staff were super helpful and explained items as it was our first time here. We tried the special of the day, a black bean and green chili burrito which was very yummy. The lattes and my son's hot chocolate were great. Good flavor and hot! We will be going back soon!

Came in a few weekends ago for coffee and breakfast. We got vanilla lattes and the breakfast burritos and a piece of crumb cake. We sat on the patio. Perfect for fall!

Hard to find but definitely nice huge coffeeshop by day. Ordered the cardamom coconut latte with almond milk! Yumm worth the $7 indulgence !

Don't come here if you're trying to work this is more of a social scene, way too crowded and loud. For all the space they have, they blocked most of it off and force everyone into a small space in the front right on top of each other. Breakfast burrito was tiny, not worth the cost.

I came mid-morning on a Friday and was immediately able to order and get my drink. The interior design of the building is really warm (brick, copper light fixtures, wood floors and chairs, leather benches), and their outdoor seating is plentiful. I ordered the Mexican mocha, which they subbed in almond milk for. It definitely had a decent amount of spice that worked in conjunction with the coffee to wake up the senses. It was nice sitting outside and watching the morning g routine at the steam station right across the street. I'd definitely want to come back and try some of their other drinks!

What a fabulous little coffee place. Friendly and welcoming, both the baristas and the atmosphere. The Mexican mocha latte was perfection, the balance of spicy heat, the slight sweetness and bitterness of the chocolate, a perfect pull of espresso, and the creaminess of the steamed milk. If I lived locally, I would drink these daily! I also enjoyed a burrito which was delicious, well filled and not all wrapper, like so many are. The atmosphere is great too, eclectic and fun with exposed brick walls, open beamed ceilings and large windows. Well spaced tables with mix and match chairs allow for plenty of seating options. The room on a grey day was a bit dark but still bright enough to work. Awesome place, can't wait to return!

Great coffee and pastries. Was a hidden gem to me but obviously not to others. Steady traffic. Will definitely go back for the treats and the service. I need to try the restaurant as they had an impressive bourbon collection.

If you want to find the best coffee in town (Brookhaven) make your way over to Moonbird Coffee. I'm a Starbucks junkie and I was looking for another option nearby. So for a day, I ditched my Starbucks- and they didn't disappoint. I've had several of their latte options, banana, Carmel, and there new seasonal flavor raspberry chocolate. So as you can see, I've ditched my Starbucks more than once. The cashier/host in the morning is always welcoming and friendly. To add... Looking for a place to read, check your email, do some work- they offer free dining and Wi-Fi up until 11:30 am. I believe they begin to prepare for lunch or dinner. But all in all, if you are looking for a quiet, indoor/outdoor, friendly coffee spot in the Brookhaven/Chamblee neighborhood stop by. If you are looking to just grab you a morning spruce, stop by. They also sell limited pastries. Oh! And Lennox cupcakes are just next door!

I visited near closing time but the staff were super friendly and helpful with their recommendations. I ended up trying the lavender latte and she added some vanilla and it was literally perfect! My husband got the rosemary latte and it tasted great as well. They make their flavors in house which I love because you can definitely taste the difference. The inside was so relaxing and they also have some outdoor seating. I would love to visit again and try some food items.

Tl;dr? I hate the hours. But I love the shop and their coffee and desserts! Located on the second floor of Southbound, you can park in the Southbound parking lot. We came on a Tuesday afternoon - since they're closed Sundays and Mondays - after lunch. It was nearly 2pm so we only under an hour to enjoy our coffee and dessert. However, it was worth every minute of our time! I ordered the Mexican mocha and a piece of berry crumb cake and it was so tasty! The mocha was slightly spicy, which was delicious. I don't usually drink mochas since they're generally too sweet for me, but the Mexican mocha was only subtly sweet. The berry crumb cake was recommended by the barista (who also happens to be in the first picture on the Yelp page) and it was so good! The cake itself was moist and the berry was both sweet and tart, but not overly so. My one complaint is how early they close - 2:30pm on weekdays and 3:00pm on Saturday's. And not being open on Sundays or Mondays?! Sigh. I'm just glad I was able to make it once. Hopefully next time I will be able to catch Moonbird Coffee again if they're open!

Moonbird is a coffee shop located inside SouthBound, on the second floor, during certain hours. They usually close around 2 or 3pm, making it nearly impossible to come here on the weekdays with short hours on the weekends. They have signs to direct you in the restaurant if you have trouble finding it. Once you're upstairs, you can order at the left counter and find your own seating. My friend and I came here on a Saturday, thinking we would get some work done. However, this isn't a coffee shop that's good for working. For one, there aren't that many outlets around. It is also very loud because people come here to hangout with friends. The coffee shop was also playing TV/cartoons on a big screen (with sound), next to where there are outlets, so it can be very distracting unless you have noise canceling headphones. The day that we came, the Wi-Fi was also unstable and basically not functional. The staff were nice, but I guess didn't think it would be helpful for customers to know that internet is not working. It wasn't until after we have both ordered our drinks and set up our laptops that we found out their Wi-Fi was down (and had been down all day). I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately ended up leaving out of frustration. This is a much better place to come if you're just wanting some coffee and a casual place to sit and chat.

Moonbird is a very cool spot. Lots of nice outdoor seating and very well versed staff. I will definitely be returning to this coffee shop to see what else their menu has to offer.

Moonbird Coffee is one of the coolest coffee shops I've enjoyed visiting! It's located on the second floor of an old building. A lot of restoration and renovation work has been done to the place. Lots of old, gorgeous, dark hardwoods permeate the place. There is lots of seating. I met the owner, a very nice lady who served up my coffee - which was strong and tasty! A great place to hang out, enjoy coffee, chill with friends, and even work! #MoonbirdCoffee

I was in the area and checked on yelp to see if there were any businesses that I had bookmarked.... sure enough Moonbird came up. I was very excited because i wanted a cup of coffee and this place had excellent reviews. I had read the reviews on yelp so I knew the shop was located inside Southbound restaurant and upstairs. I walked up the stairs and was surprised to see a packed room around 2pm on a Saturday... its a very large space. The barista, which i found out later was also the owner had shared their was a special event. I immediately fell in love with this coffee shop based on the exposed brick, hardwood floors, coffee bar, dessert selection and personable owner/barista. After scanning the menu, immediately knew I was going to get the Mexican Mocha Latte. It included Holy Kakow Mexican chocolate (a lil' spicy), espresso & steamed milk with whipped cream. Kacee shared that it was meant to be a seasonal beverage but it was so popular and had become her favorite so its now permanently on the menu. Love it!!! The beverage had the perfect hint of spiciness and mocha, it was a perfect cup of coffee.... and for only $4.25 for 12 ounces. Moonbird is opened Tuesday through Saturday, they offer ample free parking and also in walking distance to Chamblee Marta. You can check out their website for more details and their menu.

I came here at noon on a Saturday to do a mid-year check in with myself (where did 2018 go?!). Moonbird is located on the 2nd floor of Southbound. Just walk in, make a right, and take the stairs. The space feels cozy and eclectic. They have a quirky mix of tables, chairs, and couches set up in one big open room. I appreciate that they've spaced the tables out so you don't feel like you're right on top of the people around you. There's outdoor seating as well but on the day I came it was reserved for an event. For a Saturday afternoon there was a nice buzz but it wasn't too loud. I was coming off of a month long sugar fast (I know, why??) and wanted to indulge in something sweet without shocking my taste buds, so staff recommended the sweet potato bread. I love sweet potato anything so this didn't take much convincing.The bread was moist but not crumbly, and sweet but not overly so. I loved it. I don't drink coffee but I am a tea enthusiast so I got the herbal mint ginger mint which I was told is their most popular. I found it to be really soothing. They get their tea from ZenTea which happens to be really close by so if you get a tea you like you can drive a quarter mile up the street and buy more. As a bonus they were playing old Nickelodeon cartoons on a projector. Be still my seven-year old heart! It was a nice bit of nostalgia from my childhood as I stared at my laptop and planner wondering how and when I became an adult. Overall, Moonbird has the same aesthetic as Southbound - rustic with lots of wood, exposed brick, and dim lighting so if you're looking for a bright coffee shop to put on IG this isn't it. However if you're looking for a more intimate coffee shop with "character," friendly staff, good tea (and I assume good coffee), and good pastries, you should definitely check this one out.

No indoor seating available. Very limited outdoor seating exist and it's right at the entry way. Was hard to get to get to this coffee shop as it sits inside of another restaurant. I had to ask a local for the exact location. Staff was slow but cordial. Coffee must be good because the line was long. Definitely not suitable for any type of meeting to which I was there for. 100% NOT recommended unless you're getting coffee To-Go.

OM TRIPLE G!!!!! First I must say the coffee TASTE AMAZING!!! While visiting Atlanta I came across this coffee shop and I knew we had to stop in for coffee. The shop is very clean, the decor is adorable, the vibe is very welcoming and most importantly the coffee taste soo good. A little disappointing the shop closes so early, am sure its because of covid but either way the service was outstanding. We will be passing by for another cup of coffee before heading back home to FL! A must coffee shop in Atlanta if your visiting...

Very nice ladies working the register, they even complimented my coffee order which is the validation I never knew I needed. Good coffee but a little too much syrup, so I don't know exactly what the espresso tastes like so will have to go back and try again. Otherwise, was nice and satisfying, just hold the syrup if you want to taste your espresso!

Some people complain about the short hours. Don't let that dissuade you from enjoying this place. This place is simple. Easy. Lots of space. I'm seeing people getting some work done, others are holding a quick meeting. Yet others are just catching up and relaxing with a morning coffee. I arrived at something like 8:30am. The real crowd started to trickle in around 9am. But folks behind the counter kept everyone happy. Hand-made coffee drinks (my decaf mocha was perfect) and a small selection of pastries and a couple of savory suggestions, too. (Today it was breakfast burritos.) Numerous windows keep the room brightly lit. And overall, this place is simply comfortable. I'll happily stop by next time I'm in the area (in the morning, of course). Holler if you're coming with.

Whoowee!! That double shot with foam was strong! It was my first time here and I wanted to taste the actual coffee they serve to see if it compares to Dancing Goat in Decatur. I have to say that it holds up well! The espresso macchiato was very strong, enough to wake the dead, without having a burnt taste a la Starbucks or the bad aftertaste of a poorly brewed espresso in a un-maintained machine. My wife got the Matcha latte (I know...) which was very good as well. It tasted like good quality Matcha and was lightly sweetened instead of just a sugar bomb with a hint of "matcha". I was tempted to get the Mexican mocha latte that a lot of reviews rave about, but I think I'll just have to come back another day for it. As I'm writing this though, the urge to go back up and order it is unrelenting... maybe I'll get it. I mean, the espresso macchiato was in a tiny cup, right? If you're in the area or just ate some delicious food on Buford, I highly recommend hitting up Moonbird Coffee for a little digestif!

Moonbird has been one of the things that has kept me going these past few years- they've helped me have a great start to many a morning! You can tell they're a beloved part of the Chamblee community by all the regulars that come in not just to get a drink but also to say hello. If you're looking to support an excellent small business run by lovely people, definitely come to Moonbird. I like to try something different every other trip, so I ask about the special or for recommendations - I've thoroughly enjoyed everything I've tried. Their burritos and baked goods never disappoint, and they sell bags of good quality coffee to brew at home.

A beautiful space. I loved the vintage feel of the cafe. The mismatched chairs, wood tables, and the red brick lend this spot so much charm. It is situated next to railroad tracks and watching the trains pass by while doing work is yet another plus. I ordered the amaretto latte and it was delicious! I have yet to try other drinks and pastries, but this place definitely deserved some recognition. I do have to echo other reviews and say the wifi needs improvement. I'm unable to do some work I need to do because sites that have long videos will not load there. A big shame, but otherwise what a lovely place.

Favorite favorite favorite. So much charm and excellent coffee - what more can you ask for?! Located upstairs above Southbound, this gem to worth the climb up the stairs. A big open room welcomes you full of tables and chairs of different styles. Art from a local artist is strewn across the walls. Several patrons are typing diligently on their laptops, utilizing the shop's free wifi. Step right up to the big, beautiful coffee bar to make your selection. I've tried various coffees and lattes but most recently I tried the Mexican mocha latte and it was enchanting. Rich and creamy Holy Kakow chocolate latte has an excellent kick. I opted out of whipped cream but honestly kinda regret it because it likely adds to the creamy dreaminess. Super yummy! I can't get enough of this place. Kacee is killing it and Chamblee is so lucky to have her as their neighborhood barista!

They are serving coffee and muffins. Pumpkin spice was nice and strong but I was expecting to be sweet. It doesn't taste like pumpkin spice at all. Service was quick. No dine in at the moment because of covid. Place looks really nice and cozy but won't be driving 20 mins for their coffee again.

Delicious coffee with super-friendly, professional service. Casey and Melissa are a dynamic duo pouring and preparing outstanding coffee selections.

This place is CHARMING! I was greeted with a "good morning" and the coffee was flavorful and smooth! Moonbird has a very industrial/brick indoor layout and the coffee shop is actually upstairs from the bar/restaurant in this building! I would assume that this coffee shop was once a bar that was turned into a shop because it has the layout of a bar upstairs. This is a great place to chill and work on some things while you enjoy a hot or cold beverage. Very ideal for the average creative. They create a wonderful creative space with the layout and there is plenty of sunshine coming in through the windows!

Stopped here on our way from John Creek to Atlanta and were totally delighted. We were a group of 4, seeking a nice spot to grab a delicious treat and sync in a quiet and cozy place and Moonbird Coffee totally hit the spot. First, the interior is absolutely delightful, decorated with unique artwork mixed with a classic piano cafe style. The atmosphere was very "nightmare before Christmas" style and we totally wanted to purchase pieces of art should they have been available. It was very easy to find a table to set up for a small group, there were other folks studying and playing games making the environment jovial yet still quiet. The drinks were totally on point- creative and delicious. I especially recommend trying something with the custom chocolate mix such as a mocha or mexican mocha. Specifically sourced from oregon and with totally high level ingredients this is a great chance to try something you won't be able to get elsewhere.

What a wonderful little hidden gem(: I've been here twice so far and I will definitely be coming back again. I don't drink coffee so I really come for their delicious home baked zucchini bread, hummingbird bread and lovely atmosphere. The interior is very cute. No fancy decorations but a very comfy vintage feel. There's plenty of seating available and there's lots of windows so plenty of lighting if you're looking to study. Great place to chill and catch up with some friends. The service is also super friendly in case you were wondering(: It's located above Southbound so you'd have to take the stairs to get there. Also, Southbound is a great restaurant to try out if you're interested in a lovely rustic/romantic dinner. The only downside I would say is that they close pretty early, at 2:30 or something so make sure you plan accordingly. Overall, an amazing little gem!

Um, WOW??? Best coffee I have truly ever had. This place came highly recommended from a friend of a friend, who has high standards and excellent taste, and that's all the convincing I needed to try it. I can't wait for them to open up indoor seating because I will make the 20 min drive multiple times a week just to come here and enjoy their delicious drinks and the gorgeous rustic aesthetic inside. The barista was also super sweet and walked me through her favorites. The choice was tough but ultimately, I ordered a 12oz mocha and it was the best I've had. Beats out any mocha I've had in the past by a long shot. It's so smooth! Also got a blueberry muffin for breakfast and it was delicious. Unfortunately they were already sold out of their breakfast tacos today so I didn't get to try those but I'll just have to come earlier next time! Can't wait to come back and try their other coffee drinks.

Landed on the moon today after my coffee high from Moonbird Coffee. A very unassuming coffee shop being tucked upstairs from southbound restaurant. You'll second guess if you're in the right location after parking but can be reassured by the small sign outside the main entrance. Visitors are greeted by an ode to the old west complete with a wood carved barista station and mismatched old west furniture. On a nice day there is patio seating outside that can be seen from the parking lot, as well as numerous tables indoors that can accompany varying group sizes. I elected to try the Moonbird iced coffee and my Fiancée tried the Mexican mocha latte. The Iced coffee was bitter with an after taste similar to a whiskey. It was a generous pour that was the perfect caffeine fix. The Mexican mocha latte was flavorful with a subtle chili burn with each sip.

I come here during my lunch break and hang out with or Without purchasing a coffee! I go straight upstairs to enjoy the laid back vibe and overall quiet upstairs area to hang out and get away from the office. Barista is knowledgeable and can accommodate based on your requests. Coffee is bold and is a nice treat. Should also mention almond milk is available as well as fresh desserts/snacks are available.

I visited this coffee shop this morning, Saturday March 9th around 10:30am. The location of the shop is upstairs of a restaurant called Southbound. The space is big and there's plenty of seating. I'm giving this place 5 stars because: 1. There is plenty of parking 2. The barista that helped me decide what to order was extremely helpful and courteous. I wish I would have gotten her name. 3. The prices are fair. I ordered a 12oz Mexican mocha for $4.75 and a chorizo breakfast burrito for the same price. 4. My latte was heavenly and the chorizo burrito was flavorful and filling. I did go to the coffee shop with plans of studying but around 12:30 a live band started playing and it was pretty distracting. If you plan on coming here to study, come early. If you want to enjoy a great time with coffee and live music then I definitely recommend. I will definitely be visiting again.

Finally visited my local coffeehouse and it did not disappoint. The barista was very friendly and helpful at providing their most popular items. I highly recommend you try the Mexican Mocha Latte. It was just enough spice to give it a perfect kick. Just what you need to this chilly, fall weather. Their personal sized sweets and baked goods are delicious and pair nicely with the latte. There is plenty of seating, tables, and outlets (very important!) if you need to get some work done. Another hidden treasure of Chamblee!

Moonbird is definitely my new favorite coffee shop! The coffee here is delicious, and the owners are so sweet and friendly. Try the Mexican latte! It's DELICIOUS I've only been to Moonbirds twice, and both times, one or both of the baristas (owners?) were chatting with customers while taking their orders or making their drinks. I love the fact that they both take time to chat with their customers and ask them about their days. The customers are also equally friendly! I think that says A LOT about the atmosphere of Moonbird. It feels like the type of place where you can befriend anyone you meet there. I love that cozy vibe. Also, they play 90s cartoons on the weekend, so you can get a sip of nostalgia while you sip your coffee :^)

This is the type of place where no furniture matches. Tables look reasonably similar but chairs are probably grabbed from all the garages in the neighborhood and hardly match each other. It signifies the fact that coffeeshops are not about looks but more about bringing community together or achieving an individual daily victory such as work, study and reading. Coffee is great and service is greater.

I am over the moon for Moonbird! We were fiending for some caffeine after getting dim sum in the area, and stumbled upon this hidden gem. Moonbird occupies the top floor of Southbound restaurant. Once you reach the top of the staircase, you are greeted by a large open space with great natural light, high ceilings accented by Edison bulb string lights, and a charming mix of wood and exposed brick. Did I just describe my perfect loft space? Is it possible that I can I move into Moonbird? Cause I totally would. The baristas are very cheery and friendly and clearly love what they do. Both of them recommended to me the Mexican Mocha, since it was both their favorite drink. I got a large (16 oz.) for around $5. It had a nice spicy kick to it, that blended nicely with the chocolate. A quick glance at the menu, and I saw they also had drip coffee, a cortado, cold brew, nitro cold brew, hot chocolate, and a few more specialty lattes. If you check out their little chalkboard sign on your way up the staircase to the coffee shop, it lists their seasonal drinks. Girl Scout cookie flavor- inspired lattes, yassss. They offer soy, almond, and hemp milk for a small upcharge. They had a small selection of pastries and other sweets, all of which looked homemade and delicious. I was very full from dim sum, otherwise I would have gotten one. I like that they give you your drink in actual mugs/glasses, unless you are taking your drink to go. It just adds to the home-y vibe. The space itself is pretty big. We came around 2pm on a Saturday, and there was plenty of seating available. The tables and chairs are all mismatched and vintage...very cute decor. They had a projector playing Tom and Jerry cartoons, which I thought was a nice touch. However, it was not too loud. There were some people doing work on laptops and others studying or reading. I definitely see the appeal of such a chill coffee shop that is not very crowded, and wish I knew about this place back when I was a student and frequented coffee shops on the reg. It seems fairly new, so perhaps word hasn't gotten out yet that this magical place exists. I can't speak for the wifi signal or outlet placement since these were not things I was actively looking for at the time of my visit, but I'll definitely have to be back to do some work here soon. The hours may be tricky, since they are not open very late.

This is an amazing coffee shop in Chamblee. I never knew this place existed. Definitely a gem. There are two entrances with a nice parking lot in the rear. What I love about this place is that there is a separate dining, bar and loft area. You can easily host a small event in the loft area. The staff is very nice and the prices are reasonable. Easily one of the best coffee shops I've visited in a while.

We loved this place. I had this coffee shop on my list of places to try and we happened to eat at Southbound for lunch and Moonbird Coffee is right above, on the second floor. The barista was very friendly and inviting (and didn't mind my 2 toddlers running a muck at my feet). We were there about lunchtime and there were few people there but the barista told us while the parking lot is full during lunch there are few people and when the parking lot empties the coffee shoppe fills up a bit. They have a few pastries, some teas from Zen Tea (near by tea house) and of course coffee! I ordered the Espresso (Havana - Cuban coffee) and I requested some whipped cream on top. I really enjoyed the coffee and all the hardwood floors, wood furniture, wood bar, and exposed brick decor. It all reminds me a bit of places I loved in DC. I would bet this is a great place to work from too. There's also a small area to sit outside on the deck as well. I do want to make it back to try the Mexican Hot Chocolate!

Drove 20 minutes to try out a new spot. Serving coffee and cakes. Espresso was nice and strong. Service was quick. No done in at the moment because if covid but place looks really cozy and warm so I will definitely be back when they open up dine in.

I work remotely, so I am always looking for a nice, quiet place to work. However, on the day that I came, the WiFi was not working at all :( I don't think I would come back here to work; it's a bit loud and I have to have good WiFi. I wouldn't say the atmosphere is anything special eitherHowever, the Mexican mocha was very delicious.

I went to Southbound a few years ago, but didn't know about Moonbird until recently coming across it on Yelp. This is the perfect "meet up for coffee" spot. I saw a few solo workers on laptops, a few work meetings, a one-on-one Bible study, and just small groups quietly catching. I don't want to jinx it, but the sound level of this place was perfect. The music was soft and all the conversations were pretty muted which makes it a great environment to reflect, chat, or get work done. The barista was very friendly and seemed to know the regulars, but also took the time to get to know each new guest. It felt like every drink was made with intention. She even asked if I enjoyed my drink. We ordered mocha lattes which were the perfect blend of chocolate and espresso. I will definitely return and try the chai tea latte or matcha tea latte, and I would like to try a baked item. The decor makes this an inspiring work environment. I'd like to check out the outdoor seating area when it gets warmer. Moonbird Coffee, you'll see me again.
