The Red Cat Coffeehouse

When we opened The Red Cat in 2008, we wanted to create a coffeehouse that struck a balance between our own personal tastes in coffee and ambiance, what our customers desired, and what makes practical sense. We didn’t want blindly to follow the third wave of coffee culture without questioning every aspect of it to see if it is right for us. There are times when coffee is not a science experiment, but a positive experience for the customer. We wanted to create a coffeehouse that is welcoming to all people and all tastes in the Birmingham community. Our motto is coffee for everyone. We measure success by seeing that concept come to life each day when we open the doors. Here you will find specialty-grade coffees treated with care but also made accessible to a range of coffee experiences. The Red Cat offers the Birmingham community a gathering place for connecting over great coffee and wholesome food.
