Submit your favorite coffee shops and fall-flavored drinks for Charlotte Five’s top coffee shop list.

Every season is coffee season to us, but Charlotte’s chillier temperatures make that warm mug feel just a little bit cozier.

And while coffee anything is good, local coffee anything is even better: The beans are freshly roasted, the pastries are often baked in the area, the local economy is happy.

Somehow this makes the caffeine jitters even more justifiable.

We want to know about your favorite coffee shop in Charlotte and your favorite drinks from the business. From a perfect-strength dark roast to a sweetened-just-right pumpkin spice latte, what gets you out of bed in the morning?

You can submit your favorite coffee shops in our survey below. This is not a scientific poll or survey. If you have more than one favorite, you can refresh the page and submit a second option.
