Summit Coffee Noda — Restaurant in Charlotte

I was excited to try Summit since I’ve heard great things, but was super disappointed in the quality of the latte. The staff was really friendly, but the latte was just straight up bad. I’m not sure what happened or if this is just how it always tastes, but I got a hot PSL and it was insanely watered down. I ordered it with whole milk, and it tastes like it was made with a mix of skim and water. Plus there didn’t seem to be much espresso in there. It tasted like half a shot for the 12oz of “milk”? This was the worst latte I’ve ever had in my life. I wasted $6 on this and it was still worth it to toss it out. When I was pouring it down the sink too it even looked super watery. Not sure what the hype is about, but save yourself $7 and try another coffee shop or make it at home. I can seriously make a better tasting latte at home with...

Let me give you my edited version that isn't as harsh but honest - worth posting on Google! :

"My second visit in. The workers were kind which is why I even gave 2 stars. The atmosphere is strange here. They have dark occult art on the wall, which doesn't complement the aesthetic unless they are communicating their love for the occult (I did not appreciate the workers' conversations making fun of their moms' love for Jesus).

One piece of "art" that was particularly uncomfortable to look at was the one on the center of the wall. It had the word MISANTHROPE, which means to hate mankind, and also the words 'city of fools.'

The chai tea I ordered was not flavorful but watery; it tasted like warm cinnamon water. Also tried a lemonade matcha, but that tasted like a lemon Le Croix.

I cannot recommend this...

This is my favorite coffee spot in NoDa! Not only do they have excellent coffee and flavors, they also do a 24oz iced beverage size, which is major for me. What pushes it over the top are the lovely folks who work there. They are always so kind and friendly, but went above and beyond today when I spilled my massive 24oz IVL EVERYWHERE….like, literally everywhere- floor, counter, behind the bar. Everywhere. And that was right after someone else had accidentally spilled. They were so easy going about it, kindly corrected me after saying what an idiot I was for spilling, and really just handled it beautifully. Life is hard and the world can be rough, but they remind me how important it is to be understanding and kind to others. Bravo...
