Lovely new coffee shop brought to you by Afternoon Coffee and Swallowtail Farms. Friendly staff, excellent coffee and great fresh farm products. Baked goods are excellent too. If you’re familiar with Afternoon, then you’ll know what to expect for coffee. Not a ton of seating inside for those that prefer indoors, but tons of patio seating to hangout.
I had their coffee at Fest this year and it was so good that we stopped by on our way out of town and grabbed a fresh bag that they ground for me in store. Fast Forward a month and I had to order more! Roasted on the 8th and at my door step on the 10th.
Not only is the coffee superb — I got a perfectly crafted latte and loved it — but the place is very well maintained. You know those places with disgusting bathrooms? Not this place. Everything orderly and very clean. Highly recommend!
Every time I come in for coffee and sometimes a pastry or sandwich, the service is excellent, quick and friendly! The iced lattes slight foam from shaking to mix, instead of stirring, is genius and a true delight! Even when the lines is longer, they work with efficiency and knock it out of the park! ❤️
Amazing coffee in a chill, welcoming shop. The baristas were friendly and hospitable which added to the enjoyable hang. Definitely a gem in the Gainesville coffee scene. I urge everyone to ignore the harassing, low review on this feed which has nothing to do with coffee. Visit Afternoon Coffee for yourself and enjoy the delicious coffee.
Really good tea! Super cute coffee shop. and fresh flowers for sale!! Zane was great
There’s one bad review by Bart Alpert and he is a goob. The atmosphere — swathes of light pastel colors, modern inspired decor, and friendly staff — is a sweet spot to hang and sip your coffee. I am always greeted, order taken promptly, and cappuccino or latte is divine. The beans are curated and masterly roasted. The steamed milk itself is perfectly micro-foamed: glossy, aerated, the sugars slightly caramelized. Service, quality of product, and atmosphere make it my go to coffee shop. Treat yourself ❤️
atmosphere is so nice, the colour scheme and decor are beautiful. the drinks are amazing, we didn’t get any pastries this time but they look good as well, we will be back for sure :)
YES! a place that does amity-indie-organic-gainesville so well. easily the best breakfast in town. johnny cakes and sausage all day long.
Great coffee and service. We go there every weekend and miss it when we are out of town. Highly recommended. It also a short walk from depot park which makes it very convenient. We love their affogato, cappuccino, and iced latte.
