Our Story

Angel’s Island Coffee opened its doors in January of 2007. Just two years later it was voted “Best Coffee in North Alabama” and “Best Specialty Food and Drink” in a contest run by WHNT News 19.

At the young age of 23, Angel Hussain saw her dream of opening a coffee shop finally come true. As a child, Angel lived with her family in Fiji where they served as missionaries for over 10 years. This is where she learned her coffee craft and came to love the community that developed around it. So along with her father and business partner, Allen, Angel’s Island Coffee was born out of a desire to serve the very best coffee while also creating a place for people to gather, relax, and connect with one another in a welcoming community atmosphere. Today, thanks to her vision and passion, the coffee shop boasts a wonderful loyal customer base and employees who work together like family.

We strive to make the very best coffee at great prices with quick service, while also continuing to build a strong sense of community with our employees and customers. We love partnering with other local restaurants such as Piper&Leaf and Mason Dixon Bakery to offer specialty teas and gluten-free treats.

We host an ‘art wall’ where local artists can display and sell their artwork and we also frequently have bands and musicians in to play concerts on Friday and Saturday nights. We love hosting special events like “Latte Art Throwdowns” allowing our outstanding baristas, as well as baristas from other local coffee shops, to display their culinary artistic abilities. And every year at halloween, we have “Allen the Extraordinary” do his special magic show that always packs the house with kids from the local community.

To all of our loyal customers who have made a ‘home away from home’ at Angel’s, we thank you and truly appreciate our relationship with you and your continued support of the coffee shop. If you are just now discovering us online or after a first visit or two, we hope you will come by often and let us get to know you and find your perfect coffee creation!
