You heard that right: Yellowhammer Coffee in Downtown Mobile is back for business! The beloved local shop was flooded with customers Tues., May 5, following Monday’s announcement on Facebook that they would be returning.

The downtown Yellowhammer location, which closed on November 13, 2025, for renovations, offered $5 off orders all day on May 5 as an apology for the delays in reopening.

Here’s a quick run down:

The Yellowhammer Coffee location in Downtown Mobile opened in 2023, after taking over the lease of a loaded tea shop. The Downtown Yellowhammer opened up almost overnight, in a space that wasn’t quite set up to be a coffee shop.

“We didn’t expect the unreliable community, the unbelievable support. You guys have been so amazing, and it’s been so much fun to be downtown.”

Jeff Roberts, owner of Yellowhammer Coffee

Thus, owner Jeff Roberts announced on November 6, 2025, that the shop would be closing on November 13 to be revamped. Although the renovations were initially predicted to only take a couple of weeks, delays prevented the coffee shop from opening until this month.

Here’s what the renovations featured:

  • It now has a bathroom up front
  • More of Yellowhammer’s look + branding
  • Cozy seating options
  • Repainted walls
  • + more!

We recommend trying their iced white chocolate mocha or caramel macchiato. Or, if you’re in a ~springtime~ mood, check out some of their seasonal drinks:

  • Beach Bum Frappe: Chocolate, coconut, and an extra espresso shot
  • Triple Berry Limeade (energy drink, iced or frozen): Blackberry, raspberry, strawberry, and lime
