I spent the day with my son who is home from college. I had visited Southern Strain Brewing & Eatery around a month ago & loved it! In that review I had made a brief mention of this coffee shop.
While exploring today, we met the owners (Cohen & Preston) & they were really nice.
They made us seasonal coffee called orange Creamsicle and my son really loved it!
They also have another Provided Coffee location in Uptown that we’ll need to try the next time we’re in that part of Charlotte.
You will love this unique coffee space with its vintage furniture and decor & what’s awesome is it’s conveniently located in this old mill that houses both a brewery with food and a vintage shopping experience.
Happy Exploring...

Like I dunno why this place has good black lattes. I don’t question the wizardry, but I keep coming back so like. Neat!
On a more serious note; great service, kind baristas and easy to order.
Might be “hard to find” but like, google maps and Waze AND Apple Maps showed me where it was and also there’s literally arrows everywhere, it’s like a main quest point.
Being able to browse clothes and plants while I sip coffee? Amazing. 10/10 business decision. ALSO OPEN ON A SUNDAY??? EVERY DAY OF THE...
