Meeting up with friends, working remotely, sharing a meal with family—these are all ways to enjoy Birmingham’s newest all-day cafe. Frothy Monkey offers coffee, tasty treats, wine and food, complete with a unique atmosphere and experience.
Frothy Monkey arrives in Birmingham
In 2020, Urban Standard, a beloved Birmingham coffeehouse closed its doors after 13 years of business. Owner, Tomasz (Tom) Wrzesien, wanted the space to provide the same spirit of connection and community that people were used to.
Several years before, a mutual friend helped connect Tom and Ryan Pruitt, owner of Frothy Monkey. It didn’t take long for them to discover that the two businesses had very similar values.
A couple of years later, Urban Standard closed right around the time the Frothy Monkey team was ready to expand into The Magic City.
“We felt an immediate connection to the space. The shift from Urban Standard to Frothy Monkey was very intentional with the new design of the well-loved downtown café.”
Jennifer Sheets, Chief Marketer, Frothy Monkey

The heart behind Frothy Monkey
Like Urban Standard, Frothy Monkey aims to be a hub for the creative community.
See what weekly events you can enjoy at your new favorite all-day café.
We wanted to have places where people could stay for a long time, plug in and sit with friends and neighbors. We love it when people stay a while because they experience more of what we have to offer. Come for coffee or breakfast, keep working and you might just say for lunch.”
Paige Meisenheimer, Communications Coordinator, Frothy Monkey
Investing in the Birmingham community
Frothy Monkey’s investment in their community starts with their employees. They strive to create an environment where team members feel supported and empowered and are encouraged to bring the fullness of their personality to the table.
Frothy Monkey is fueled on its people—not just caffeine. On the coffee sleeves and the 2nd Avenue North door, you’ll find the words “take care of each other,” a motto that reflects their values.
