Harbor Coffee is a neighborhood coffee shop on Elizabeth Street in Inman Park, run by co owners John Noojin and Caitlin Hemmer. They meant the name as a verb, to shelter, and its motto asks that the world we dream about be the one we live in now.

Rather than roast its own beans, Harbor brings in guest roasters and organizes pop ups and events, including a holiday market for makers that takes applications each autumn. The shop began as a pop up before a community fundraising drive in 2023 helped pay for the move into a storefront, and it now serves the neighborhood every day of the week, opening at eight in the morning and closing at four in the afternoon.
