Charlie's Coffee and Company was established in 2008 by cheery barista Charlie. From the back of a 3-wheeled Piaggio van, Charlie began serving  Has Bean Coffee and bags of morning cheer to the early risers at St Albans station. Nine years on, the coffee van is in the same place, with the same face serving coffee every morning. In 2014, Charlie's Coffee Shop opened its doors, bringing more exceptional coffee to St Albans. This speciality coffee shop is located in the heart of the London Road neighbourhood, a recently regenerated side of town, just 5 minutes from St Albans City train station. Charlie's shop is a friendly and creative space, with a neighbourhood feel. It's a place where local people come to take time out from their day, to drink good coffee and soak up good vibes.
