Union Coffee
216 W Friendly Ave, Greensboro, NC
Crema's Take
“Union Coffee in downtown Greensboro has cultivated a genuinely beloved community gathering spot where espresso craftsmanship meets genuine hospitality—regulars and first-time visitors alike rave about perfectly executed cortados, thoughtful pour-overs, and a warm staff that makes everyone feel like they belong. The shop strikes that rare balance of being simultaneously serious about specialty coffee and perfectly welcoming for a casual breakfast with an Asiago bagel or a few hours of work, all while maintaining the kind of charm that invites strangers to share Post-it notes on a communal board.”

Union Coffee, how we love thee.. Let us count the ways. Our first time in GBO, and we are coffee geeks, and we look out of our BnB window, and behold! A coffee shop! Cortados, Americanos, Lattes, OH MY! We loved our coffee. Brown Sugar latte with oatmilk was perfection. Coffee and roast was soooo smooth. And the cute little notes on the wall and to go cup just makes ya feel good! Can't wait to visit again, we will be back.
My husband and I really enjoyed our visit to union coffee. We were waiting on some work to our motorcycles at the Triumph dealership and walked here to enjoy breakfast. I had an asiago cheese bagel, fresh and toasted to perfection served with butter. Delicious! My husband had a blueberry muffin that he enjoyed as well. We both had drip coffee. We had in regular coffee cups since we staying. Included free refills and refreshers. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back as we are back and for for maintenance for our bikes. Thanks!
Lovely coffee shop in downtown Greensboro. The coffee is great, as well as the service and friendliness. As you enter, write a note on a post it and place it on the board… your note will then be used as a positive message in someone else’s to-go cup! Bravo for being kind and serving coffee and refreshments to those who couldn’t pay! Those gestures didn’t go unnoticed! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Lovely! Great place to come and sit down to do some work and get a coffee. ☕️ my Oatmilk cortado was done perfectly. Customer service was excellent. Highly recommend.
Nice experience overall. Had 2 pour overs by the Night Swim Coffee, they were not very exciting, at most. I think it’s better when this coffee shop serves Black and White - I had a cup of their coffee in the past, and I gotta say, it was fantastic. Finished with a nice Honduran decaf cappuccino - enjoyed it. Polite baristas, nice vibe. Overall enjoyed the experience. I think it’s a better experience when the Black and White is served.
