Atlas Coffee - Charlottesville

What a great neighborhood spot! Excellent coffee and baked goods, super-friendly people, nice patio. Great place to bring the kids for a treat or the dogs for a little outing.

Went here on 2 Feb around 11 am, and had a triple shot of espresso and a slice of banana nut bread. The espresso was good, the nut bread seemed fresh, and the baristas were nice. Have had nothing but good experiences here since 2016.

Probably the best coffee in Charlottesville. The espresso (both the individual shot and the Americano are my favorite in the area. Not too bitter, not overly acidic, just a genuinely good flavor. The matcha is also really food, very creamy and just all around pleasant. I really appreciate how they use local artists' works as decoration (they're for sale! . There isn't much space inside, just a little coffee bar with a few seats, so don't necessarily plan on staying there but if you can, its really nice! Parking is out back.

Fun shop. Everyone is smiling, staff and patrons. Good drinks and snacks. Just wish they could miniaturize that espresso machine, which takes up so much of the counter and dominates the space.

Consistently good coffee and baked goods. Fast and friendly service.
