About This Spot

Stepping into Charlie’s Coffee Shop feels like slipping into a beloved corner of Morningside where the morning unfolds at a gentle, welcoming pace. It’s the kind of place where the hum of quiet conversations mingles with the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee, inviting you to settle in, breathe easy, and soak up the unpretentious charm around you. This neighborhood café quietly champions the art of making everyone feel like part of its extended family.

The atmosphere here strikes a balance between cozy and convivial. Natural light filters softly through the windows, casting a warm glow on wooden tables that have hosted countless breakfasts, catch-ups, and slow Sunday mornings. It’s clear this is a spot well-loved by locals not just for its food but for its sincere spirit of hospitality — where the owners and staff remember faces and stories, creating a space that feels as personal as it does familiar.

When it comes to the menu, one can expect heartening simplicity done well. Whether it’s the gentle comfort of a beautifully balanced latte or a straightforward, satisfying breakfast that feels like a small celebration of the day’s start, each offering comes with thoughtful care. The open sandwiches and hearty combinations hint at a kitchen that values honest flavors with a touch of local soul, perfect for those who appreciate good food without fuss.

Charlie’s isn’t rushed — it’s a place to linger over your coffee, to catch up with an old friend or quietly watch the neighborhood wake up. There’s a patience in the rhythm here, a reminder that sometimes the best moments are a little slower and deeply genuine. Whether you’re stopping by for a weekday breather or treating yourself to a weekend breakfast ritual, Charlie’s Coffee Shop invites you to feel at home.

Cozy spot. Staff are welcoming and friendly. I would give it 5 stars if there wasn't such a wait for your food.

What an incredible spot. The owners are hands on super friendly and the food is delicious. Definitely the place to go for a good hearty bacon and egg breakfast or whatever tickles your fancy.

I always enjoy my time a Charlie's, I have taken my friends, colleagues, and partner, they always have enjoyed their time there. The first time I went to Charlie's, I had just came back from the dentist for fillings, and it was pass breakfast time, but the mananger went out of her way to accommodate me and offered the breakfast menu even though it was lunch time.shr does not forget a face, she is warm, always has a bright smile and the staff is so friendly, I promise you, take your time and pop in you won't regret it

One of my favourite venues for a top breakfast. Avo, 2 eggs, bacon, rye bread r45 Or smoked salmon salad r90 delicious. I have also enjoyed the mince on Rye with eggs of my choice. A very nice venue, but parking in the street can be a problem.
