The Refinery
728 29th St S, Birmingham, AL
Crema's Take
“The Refinery is a Birmingham gem where baristas like Kayla craft inventive specialty drinks (think pink Starburst reimaginings) with real skill and personality, transforming custom requests into memorable sips. The upscale-yet-laid-back space strikes that perfect balance for lingering over coffee or settling in for a meeting, backed by surprisingly affordable, flavor-packed food like their standout spinach dip and miso chicken sandwiches that earn repeat orders.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.
