“ All of the specialty lattes are hand crafted and delicious. The staff is so friendly and answers questions on flavor profiles. I’ve spent a week in Birmingham and have treated myself to a different latte at Filter every day on my trip. Make sure you see Barista Michael - he makes an awesome latte! ”
“ Some of the best coffee/tea/pastries I’ve ever had. Jeremy is crafting an incredible coffee shop here (and one of the very few open on a Sunday morning in Birmingham, at that). 11/10 would drink tea every day if it always tasted like this. ”
“ Hands down, my favorite coffee shop in Birmingham! Filter isn’t just a place to grab a handcrafted latte (though their Cinnamon Roll Latte is divine); it’s a hub of creativity, connection, and community. From locally made treats and rotating art displays to live music, a game & book library, and podcast features, Filter showcases the very best of what Birmingham has to offer. Every visit feels like a love letter to the city. And if you see Jeremy—the incredible owner behind it all—take a moment to thank him for creating such a warm, inspiring space. Supporting Filter means supporting the heartbeat of Birmingham. ”
“ Filter is probably my favorite coffee spot in Bham! Seriously, you have to stop in. My go-to drinks are the Lavender Blossom or Salted Butterscotch on ice. Jeremie is amazing, knowledgeable, and loyal to his customers. Special shout out to my favorite batista Michael! They are affordable and worth every penny. If I could rate above 5 stars, I would! ”
“ Hooked us up with a big coffee order for our crew and some ice ice baby that we needed. Generous hospitality and great flavor! The Lavender Honey Latte was so good! ”
“ Met the owner Jeremy, he was the most kind, thoughtful, and incredible part of this experience! Exceptional drinks and service, a fun atmosphere but we still knocked out a ton of homework, and the team behind the counter was incredible! Jeremy even lent my girlfriend a laptop charger and brought me a shot of espresso for free just because I was passionate about it! ”
“ Great capacinno and a delicious Danish. The vibe is relaxed. Prices are fair. Nice coffee place. ”
“ I went here to study the other weekend and was not disappointed! The spinach and feta quiche and the vanilla latte were outstanding. Also there is plenty of seating for studying upstairs and downstairs. I also loved that they were displaying art from a local high school in the upstairs space. I will definitely be back to the other latte and pastry options! ”
