Welcome to Red Tail Cafe!

Originally opened in 2021 as Prevail at Maxwell, our little cafe is honored to serve Maxwell AFB the freshest coffee in the River Region. Click here to learn about Prevail Coffee and what makes it so amazing!
Collette and Vonne bought the cafe from Prevail in 2022 and made it their own.

Which barista did you meet today?

Collette

Collette (she/her) likes coffee, tea, movies, and long walks in the desert with cryptids. Ask her about her favorite 90s TV shows.

Vonne

Vonne (she/they) is a bog witch who requires caffeine to function, loves literature, and has been stuck in the twilight zone since 1999. Conversation often involves pets, choir practice, and a love/hate relationship with running.

Chimes

Chimes (they/them) is actually a fae creature that we tricked into working for us. We stole their name and now they spawn into the cafe on days that we need extra help. They are often found making magic at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival.

THE CAFE

Our cafe is located inside the main Maxwell AFB Exchange, across from GNC. We have limited seating (6) but are close to the food court.

THE EXPRESS

The Express is our Coffee Concession Trailer. It visits the 187th out at Dannelly Field on Drill Weekends, and can be found around base at Maxwell and out in the Montgomery area for events. Check our Instagram for updates on location and events.
