OHenry's Coffees
569 Brookwood Village, Birmingham, AL
Crema's Take
“O'Henry's is a beloved Birmingham institution that roasts some of the state's finest coffee, with espresso and pour-over drinks made by folks who clearly know their craft—their beans are thoughtfully sourced from multiple regions and roasted with precision rather than burnt into submission. The retro-diner aesthetic paired with smooth jazz, patient staff, and a genuinely welcoming vibe makes it the kind of place where you'll see regulars settled in with laptops and newcomers lingering over pastries and full breakfast plates, though the premium quality does come with prices to match. If you're serious about your coffee and want to sit awhile in a quiet, genuine local space, this is exactly where you belong in Birmingham.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

A cool local coffee shop recommended to us by family. It was an overall “good” experience but really nothing to make it great. The decor felt a bit dated. The employees were friendly but service took a while on a Sunday morning and the coffees were not amazing. Their signature…
Great coffee selection. Much better than Starbucks. In fact, they offer coffees from multiple regions. The roasts are well done and not overdone. Usually with Starbucks the beans are over roasted with an ashtray or cigarette flavor. The atmosphere is comfortable and cosy. …
Love their coffee and food. Every single meal I have had on the menu is great! The down side to this location is the chairs and tables outside don’t really match. It’s hard to work because the chairs sit very low compared to the height of the table which makes it a hard work…
