Born in Charlotte in 2022, Sharper Street Café emerged from a passion for purpose-driven coffee. Founded by a Black, veteran entrepreneur, our journey started with a question: What if every sip of coffee could feel like a win?

That’s how Ego Trips Coffee was born—our signature brand, crafted for achievers, dreamers, and doers. With beans selected for quality, roasted fresh, and styled for the posh yet practical, Ego Trips Coffee is a celebration of ambition.

We know the grind because we live it. That’s why we’re dedicated to fueling the everyday victories—from the early morning pitch decks to late-night brainstorming sessions. Whether it’s powering mom-preneurs between school drop-offs or energizing finance teams before the markets open, we’re here for every bold move.

And we’re not just about coffee. We’re about community, culture, and confidence. Our roots are planted deeply in Charlotte, and we’re proud to serve as a local hub where culture meets caffeine.

Sharper. Stronger. Caffeinated.
