This place is a vibe and a half, and I'm so happy it exists in CLT! We learned about Archive when taking a tour of "The Vault" Black art collectors special exhibition at the Mint Museum. Our tour guide mentioned that one of the collectors in the show owns this coffee shop, and that the bathroom is covered in vintage magazines, just like one of the walls of the exhibition! The very next morning, we came by to check it out. From the music playing to the books, records, art, and memorabilia in the space, Archive is so comfortable, welcoming, and interesting. It's the type of place where you want to enjoy a nice beverage and have deep conversations. To drink, we tried an iced dirty chai and an iced foxy brown (both with oat milk). The foxy brown was unique and delightful, with notes of caramel and brown butter. We nibbled on a cinnamon crumb muffin, which they offered to warm for us. Delish and paired perfectly with our bevvies. Archive is amazing!!

Will definitely be coming back! I had been wanting to check it out for while and it did not disappoint. The decor, the music playlist, and the vibe were great. There's so much too see, and the drip coffee was really good.
Okay sooooooooo I had thee best matcha ever here the other day. I walked in and it was pretty empty compared to a weekend here. They're usually super busy on weekends and I love that. It was nice to be able to walk right in and order. The person who helped me was very nice. I ordered their matcha and absolutely loved it. It was piping hot and burned my tongue lol. Which I am actually okay with. I honestly haven't had a better matcha in Charlotte yet. I cannot wait to go back and get it again. I always love coming here, it's such a vibe. From all the decor and memorabilia. It's like stepping into my house or my Moms house lol. I just love coming here so much!

The coffee was very good. I had a drip coffee and sat for a while. There was a musician setting up and I stayed a little while. I am not sure if that happens every Sunday but between the nice lady making coffee and the atmosphere I enjoyed this coffee shop.

This is my favorite coffee, latte and refresher spot in town. The Service is great, the atmosphere and conversations is like non-other. The Dirty Chai Latte is the best drink on the menu in my opinion.

When Archive first opened, I took my co-worker with me after I visited and she cried. She felt so full with happiness and belonging. Archive evokes just that and more. Being at Archive, brings up feelings of nostalgia, happiness, joy, belonging, and pride. Every inch of Archive is perfectly curated, from the front door to the bathroom. I love that it's in west Charlotte! I love sharing this gem with my friends. An iced dirty chai or the foxy brown (hot or iced) are my go to drinks. Bonus points: The owner is super dope, kind, creative, and personable! She recently had an exhibit at the Mint Museum in Uptown and I thoroughly enjoyed it and appreciated it!
