Firehouse Coffee 1881 - Hampton

Great iced chai latte and pleasant breakfast sandwiches. I will say I was pretty disappointed because they lost our ticket and we had to wait over 30 minutes while people were getting served that came in after us. Not to mention they forgot the oat milk my boyfriend asked for. Cute place but a little unorganized.

Update 2/3 There are some subtle changes happening! The new owners are very friendly and Firehouse Coffee remains the same community meeting spot it has always been. The new owners are very receptive to feedback. I'm excited to see what else is in store. This is a cute little coffee shop with sandwiches and ice cream. It's nestled in the heart of Fort Monroe in an old firehouse. The ice cream was fantastic and the coffee was good. I would definitely give this

The whole Ft. Monroe area is super cool but strange at the same time. It sometimes still feels like an active military base, but then you have regular business and residents. This old coffee shop is outside the main fort, just a jaunt away. I had a scoop of salted caramel ice cream which was brilliant and a hot apple cinnamon muffin. The prices were reasonable for whatever I ordered, but I can?t say for other lunch-food items. Recommend a visit if in the area, cheers.

Overall nice shop, but looks like it was thrown together, was very expensive, and didn?t feel all that professional. I got the chicken salad sandwich on ciabatta and a latte with vanilla and whole milk altogether $16. The sandwich and latte were pretty awesome, and the staff was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I would come back if I happened to be on Fort Monroe, but I wouldn?t make a trip to here specifically. I do appreciate the uniqueness of the theme of this shop

I visited this place to work from home, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. The space is spacious, and the windows were open, letting in the refreshing autumn air. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The smoothies are genuinely good, which I find is often hard to come by at coffee shops. The coffee quality was also impressive. They offer both breakfast and lunch menus. If you have children, there are toy fire trucks available for them to play with. The music isn’t too loud, making it a great environment for working, like I was. Plus, it’s located in a charming, walkable area.
