Stopped in for a quick coffee. The entrance to the store is a cool tunnel that runs alongside a boutique qwerky shop you can browse while waiting on your coffee. Cool inside would be nice to sit and have a chat with your spouse or friend. Coffee itself was good overall, we had a flavored cold brew and an americano. Service was good and friendly staff. Would recommend and go again. Presentation the cups were mid. ‍

My favorite coffee spot. You walk through gorgeous iron gates to a cute coffee shop. I always order the crislip because it's my favorite.

One of my fav coffee spots in St.Pete - The staff is always so nice and consistent with their drinks (which drink consistency tends to be the issue with most coffee spots) They have a large menu of both signature coffee drinks and large tea menu as well. Iced/Hot beverages are available so it's a great place to visit all year round. My fav is the "light my fire" - they torch s'mores on top so it tastes great!! They do offer indoor seating as well as a few tables are out front - oh and they are Pup friendly!! Once you have your coffee, you can check out the little store they're connected to which offers goods from local merchants :)

I usually love this little gem (for a couple years) with awesome coffee and nice vibe. The last couple of times the music has been so loud and angry. Mosh stuff. We couldn't hear each other. When we commented on the volume etc we were ignored or met with scowels by two employees. The food also took a long time. I would love to have rather contacted the owners directly but contact info was not on their website.I hope this gem can get it together. Great coffee and in the past, nice customer service.

Melissa is a master at her craft. Her custom beverages are absolutely delicious and this shop has some of the best lattes in all of St Pete. This coffee shop is a gem. Small and quant but lovely atmosphere with a fun quirky aesthetic!!A must go!

This coffee shop is located in the historic Crislip Arcade and is connected to The Merchant, a local shop featuring local artists. It has a very casual vibe which is great when you just want to enjoy your coffee. There are many unique coffee concoctions and also teas available. The barista was super sweet and made me a latte even though they were about to close. I had the Purple Rain latte with lavender and honey which was delicious. I'm not a big fan of lavender buds in my drink l, but fortunately it wasn't an issue until the very end. If you are strolling down Central Ave. and want to stop for a coffee break, check this place out!

Such a cute coffee shop. They have little seating but it's cozy. I would recommend it for work since it's loud.

I dream about Crislip's spinach and feta croissant. I wish I could eat it daily. Alas, that's not how calories are set up. Crislip Cafe, a quaint coffee shop and more on Central. Always friendly service. Great coffee and tea. And, don't forget to visit the boutique attached to it.

rankings: iced matcha latte: 8/10 indy's chocolate chip cookie: 7/10 cute in here! bakery items look amazing and workers are super nice. relatively limited seating but i've never seen the seating full and always been able to sit inside if i wanted to. the entrance is down the alley or you can walk through the gift shop it's connected to

Excellent selection of standard and seasonal lattes. Service was efficient and friendly and the vibe was pretty cool. It’s a bit small, but they do have some outdoor seating. I enjoy trying local coffee shops when traveling and like finding interesting drinks to try. Would recommend.

Cute coffee shop hidden off central. You can enter through the boutique store front or through the little alley. Tons of drink options, all the classics and a lengthy list of specialty/seasonal beverages. I got the iced dirty chai + vanilla and it was so delicious! Service was warm & friendly, I didn't catch the baristas name but she was happy to help me make a decision (I was very indecisive) and let me take my time.

Alright y'all, major PSA here: this is officially one of my new fave shops. Bonus? It also happens to be a small business Knick knack shop :D The coffee counter itself is in the back of the shop, so walking through you pass by all the local artist-made items being sold (very clever business aesthetic, I'll admit).The coffee counter does serve some sweet and savory bites like scones and croissants. I had a spinach and feta croissant which paired so nicely with my skim vanilla latte. Another major plus is that the shop is amongst a handful of other small businesses because it's basically a conglomerate. So you can check out the other shops while you're there. The people working in the shop and at the coffee counter are super nice and the whole place is just great explore!
