The Collective Cafe is proud to be a part of the Nexus Project, an exciting and innovative approach to creating spaces that engage and benefit the local community. We want all of our spaces - the cafe, event venues, and co-work offices - to be a place where people from the whole community can come together to work, to gather, to learn and to play.
We want to be a place where you can schedule business meetings, host large or small events with onsite catering by our sister company TreeTop Events, or catch up with a friend over coffee and a meal. But we want to be more than that. Our desire is to give back, to help our community thrive by donating to local charities whose founders reside here in Charlotte.

First time customers, which we informed them of. We Ordered an omelet, French toast(well done please) and 2 coffees with water. They told us to sit down and they would bring everything. We Find a seat...wait...fifteen minutes waiting for the coffee. I go up to ask and they tell me "it's over there",!meaning the other side of the counter. And had been for the full 15 minutes and just one. I ask where the other coffee is and they tell me they don't know and after checking tell me we didn't order two coffees. So we get one "warmish" coffee that they don't offer

This place is a gem - it has everything: nice parking area, surprisingly great food at affordable price, the smoothies are great too and they even have a Mississippi table. The place is also big and clean. Oh, and their lattes are excellent too. It seems a perfect spot for a work week lunch or an office break. Will be back next time my kid has a travel hockey tournament in the area!

A bit pricey, decent drinks, food leaves a lot to be desired, and the atmosphere is welcoming.
I've been here a few times now & tried a few dishes before writing this review. The drinks are solid, I've sampled a few coffees, lattes, and trash they were well prepared but on the higher end price wise.
The food has been lackluster on my visits; the eggs taste powdered and the quality does not match up with the flavor or price.
I suggest ordering drinks, eating in for the ambiance, but skip the food.

It's a cool, dope, nice gathering spot that's a nicely blend of coffee house, restaurant, and meeting space. Carefully thought out dining area that caters to both the experienced satellite workers and anyone looking for a delicious breakfast. The decor is genius inside from an inspirational wall of quotes to industrial bars and tables. This place is a hidden gem!
The food has been on point with every visit and the customer service is spot on! I've ordered a build your own omelet and a French toast plate. I was able to catch pics of one of those options to give you a visual.

Found this gem via Yelp. I needed something fast, convenient and good quality on my way to work. CUTE ambiance, I wish I had more time to stay and enjoy it. I ordered a creme brûlée iced latte & chicken salad wrap with sweet potato fries to go. Both were really good! The food was fresh and made to order. Normally don't get too excited over chicken salad because you know what to expect but this chicken salad had flavor, super moist and the wrap had a little crunch to it with the lettuce and tomato. I also got a guava & cheese empanada- also delicious. The staff was amazing! Helpful

The coffee spot, a little off the beaten path, was an unexpected treasure. The coffeehouse is accommodating, the staff is friendly, and the whole place looks straight out of Pinterest (impressed). The coffees, fresh house-made juice, and other breakfast foods were just as exceptional.
Overall this place was not what I expected; I am 100% impressed and will return. Please make an effort to check it out!

I have not had the pleasure of dining in, but I've ordered delivery from here about 4 times now. Each time the food is hot fresh and delicious! Not to mention my orders are always correct. The empanadas are delicious and the breakfast sandwiches are amazing. I have recommended this place to several people.

City of Matthews have you heard about our newest breakfast and lunch cafe? I haven't tried their breakfast items yet but I have tried a lunch item. The Blackened Blue salad was very good. The large chicken breast wasn't fried but just the right seasoning of spices for a great taste. Blue cheese crumbles, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and sunflower seeds with your choice of dressing. Now the price was $8.95 but the portion was huge! Yes, I like all foods but today I felt like eating a salad and it was all worth it. The only disappointment was a packet of dressing but I get it...they are
