In my experience local coffee shops can be super hit or miss. However, Amelia island coffee was definitely a hit. And you can tell because when we walked in it felt like half the island was there. The wait time definitely reflected this. Which I personally will take as a trade off if it means I can continue to get their great iced lattes and maybe try some of their delicious looking treats.
Nice ambience with old exposed brick walls in historic downtown Fernandina Beach. Coffee was excellent. Food was just average and a little slow in coming. You fix your own coffee so may have to wait as coffee prep area is very small. Ran out of half and half (no cream). Staff not too friendly and no one checking on coffee station despite plenty of employees. If you just want a good hot cup of coffee, this place is great. I had the Garden Bagel and the topping of cream cheese and avocado was very thin. Husband's breakfast bowl was pretty good. Gave it 4 stars due to ambience and good coffee.
This is my favorite coffee shop on Amelia Island. You can a get a very good cup of coffee here, whether a regular drip or a more Starbucks-y flavored coffee. The pastries are fresh and tasty. The place has a great atmosphere, with plenty of seating inside and out. I guess its a sign of the times, but there seems to be a lot of staff turn-over, and as a result, service and coffees can be inconsistent.
A sweet young blonde woman with beautiful sun-dangle earrings took my order. I bought a breve latte - very tasty - as well as a cinnamon roll and eclair. Based on the reviews, I had higher expectations of the eclair; however, the cinnamon roll exceeded them.The eclair had an unexceptional pudding-style filling whereas my preference is more of a whipped cream type and texture. Faint taste of refrigerator on pastry shell, and a hint of cologne on eclair wrapper and box (when I went to lick off the frosting!). The frosting was my favorite part of the eclair, but I buy them for the filling, so... ?♀️The roll had incredible frosting: the perfect blend of buttery and cream-cheesy. Lots of cinnamon inside, and the edges had a nice crispness to them. Wish I'd gotten two and skipped the eclair. ?Will definitely be back if/when in the area to support this local business.
This place almost doesn't want to serve food. It is a limited menu, but the first thing I heard when I came in was that it would be 20 minutes for food on a Sunday morning at 9:00. Luckily we weren't in a hurry. I also didn't understand how they decided whether you got your food on a plate or in a cardboard box. My wife enjoyed the bacon quiche. The place could be more (or less) but they need to decide.
1 star for ambiance and 1 star for friendly workers.Other than that, this place has burnt espresso and coffee. You can tell the beans have been roasted for too long.The worse part...they charge $2 to get Oatmilk and the reason being that oatmilk is more expensive than the others. As someone who's been lactose intolerant their own lives, yeah it was more expensive 5 years ago. Its the same average price as soy. Weird, predatory pricing for people who literally cannot have milk.In house syrup is not good. If you get a flavored drink that's coffee based, get ready for bitter coffee and bitter syrup. Would not recommend unless you really need a fix and are unable to go anywhere else.
Great local coffee spot with a very friendly and welcoming staff. The breakfast was also good. Would highly recommend as your go to coffee spot when visiting in town.
Coffee is decent. Cheese danish was delicious. Had to chase the owners (?) out of the bathroom to use it. Probably better times to redecorate than when you have a full house
Nice selection of breakfast and lunch items and the best lattes on the island. Puts Starbucks to shame!
A nice way to start your day. Nice atmosphere with friendly staff. We sat outside enjoying the area with our warm breakfast, hot chocolate and tea. We also liked the containers.
