Dunx Coffee

My drink was delicious. ☺️Tipping was definitely awkward. They ring a bell loudly when you tip. They swing around the payment screen right in front of you and watch choose your tip amount. I was going to tip to begin with, but I don't like making a show of it for the rest of the people in line. It puts unintended pressure on people.

This was my first time at Blackhawk as there’s nothing appealing for me at a hardware store. But, my stepdad made me promises of Amelie’s and “the best coffee I’ve ever had”. In a hardware store. My interest was piqued so I went. Dunx is located in the back of Blackhawk’s second floor and could be easy to miss, so don’t! This coffee is GOOD. Like, REALLY GOOD coffee. Because they do small batch pour overs, it takes longer to make than your standard coffee shop but it’s so worth it. Even their decaf was awesome. There’s a one pager that explains what they do to their beans. The young guy behind the counter was very friendly and did a great job with the coffee. Can’t wait to come back to this hidden gem in Blackhawk!

Best coffee place in Charlotte. They're both incredible roasters and incredible brewers. They have over a dozen roast choices to choose from, and if you don't know much about coffee roasts, they're more than happy to help you select which brew matches your taste. Flavors range from nutty, to chocolate, to fruity, and they always grind the beans fresh for your cup.

I was in Blackhawk hardware and I came across this coffee shop nestled in the right front of the store. I talked with the owner Duncan (aka Dunx founder/owner) and he selected an awesome blend for me when I explained the flavor profile I was looking for. It’s nice to see outside of San Francisco someone so enthusiastic about the roasting process. I also brought home the Christmas Blend and it is amazing. It has a nice medium body, low acidity and a nice subtle smoked nutty flavor. Highly recommend and the owner is very pleasant to talk to about coffee.

Fantastic coffee! I have been to almost every coffee shop that Charlotte has to offer and this is one of the best! All the coffee is brewed fresh and in small batches so you know it hasn't just been sitting around. Tons of different roasts so everybody gets what they want. Also enjoyed getting to talk to the owner. He really knows his stuff! If you love coffee, you must go here. Easy to find inside Blackhawk Hardware (another great store to wander around in!)
