Undercurrent Coffee

"Good specialty coffee shop inside a large food court."

"I hesitantly tried their coffee (I'm diehard for Sbux frappes, and I dislike the taste of coffee), and it is SO GOOD I like it as much as the frappes I get from sbux. The staff are super friendly and go out of their way to make sure everyone's visit is pleasant. It's definitely my new go-to coffee shop. Ask for a mocha latte with caramel. You won't regret it"

"One of my favorite coffee shops in Charlotte. Depending who is working on the bar, sometimes I have had killer shots! I love the varieties of tea as well, as Spirit does an amazing job at sourcing quality teas from around the world. Bagels and avocado toast are also amazing! When I was at undercurrent in optimist hall today, there was a huge line. I wasn't even going to attempt to order. Optimist in general was a bit crazy, so I could only imagine. This is still one of my favorite spots, but I will only come when it's chill."

"Best hot chocolate ever. Bagels are delish too! Also love how they support local farms"

"Very cool place. Located inside a refurbished older large building that now consists of food stands, restaurants, and shops called Optimist Park. Barista was so sweet and awesome. I got a brown sugar vanilla cappuccino. I'm a former barista and can say she made the drink PERFECT. Was so yummy! Not overly sweet, perfect foam and even had latte art on top. My only con here was the lack of size options. There wasn't one for this drink. The cup was maybe 10oz? I also went back, as I had been sitting outside, to get another 10 mins before closing. There was someone washing dishes you could see in the back, but no one helped me and the register area looked shut down. Other than that, loved my experience and will be back."
