35 cents charge to have a drink iced is wild especially when you have a free iced water station with cups….

I absolutely love Red Cat. Both of the locations always have great service and the food & coffee are always great. I've tried a lot of the other local shops around Bham and haven't found one that tops this place yet.

Wonderful atmosphere and solid coffee! Line was out the door. Would love to come back and try some other items on the menu. They were extremely busy and the wait was long. Staff was friendly. Beautiful area of town, too.

Really great coffee, but they nickel and dime you for everything. I have never seen anything like it. They charge an extra dollar for decaf, a fee for a to-go cup, I mean it’s really out of hand. It cost me $9 for a small vanilla latte. For that reason I usually for elsewhere. I don’t mind paying for good coffee, but their fees are nuts!

Just in front of Rail Road Park is one of the Red Cat coffee shops. I'm very traditional with the coffee, and the softer one I take is a cappuccino. But you can find cortado, and others base in expresso. Most people look for the Starbucks kind of, and for sure, you will find those here and even better. They also have theirs own preparations. There are always good side pastries, cakes, or healthy snacks for your pleasure.

My go to coffee shop. Great drinks, great atmosphere. Wish they had a little more room. Almost never a table but it's because they are so popular.

Wonderful people, great food, nice relaxed environment, and delicious coffees and smoothies! Best place to get your morning started or a mid day boost! I had a breakfast bowl with bacon, added avocado and a Havana Brown iced coffee with oat milk and omg is it the best thing this morning! The friendly faces make this experience amazing.

I typically go to the location in Pepper Place, but I decided to go to this location the other day while walking in Railroad Park. This location is a lot smaller than the one in Pepper Place, but it still has the same charm and ambiance. I always get the Abyssinian (vanilla & cinnamon) and do a mix & match smoothie with coconut cream, pineapple, and almond milk. The baristas are sweet and most definitely seem to care about their customers' experience. The areas are clean and well kempt; tables inside are sanitized in between customers. I love how sustainable they're attempting to be with their straws. On their straw dispenser reads a message stating they care about sustainability and would like to keep the usage of straws to a minimum.

Traveling through Birmingham from out of town, we stopped by for breakfast. We got a breakfast sandwich and bowl with a mocha. All of it was amazing! The food had good size portions and worth the stop.

After leaving this town for almost two years, this is still, and will be, the place I've been thinking of all the time—the best cafe in Birmingham.
