I discovered this café while browsing Google Maps, and I’ll admit it was a little tricky to find at first. There’s no exterior signage indicating it’s a café, so I had to call the number listed on Google to get directions. Once inside the Glades building at Sawgrass Technology Park, though, it’s worth the effort!

The interior is spacious and filled with natural light, making it a great spot if you want to work or just relax with a coffee. When I visited, it was quiet and peaceful—perfect for focus or casual conversation.

There’s also plenty of outdoor seating in a lovely courtyard with a fountain and gazebo, offering calming water views. Overall, a hidden gem for coffee, work, or just enjoying a serene break.

I was so excited to finally have some time before work this morning to stop by and check out Getsemani, especially since a friend of mine has spoken so highly of it. Finding the place was a little tricky, but if you follow the lawn signs, they'll eventually lead you to the coffee nook, just make sure to look for the glass doors labeled THE GLADES. As you enter, you're greeted by the soothing sounds of instrumental music filling the lobby of the space where Getsemani is located. The area itself is beautiful, spacious with plenty of seating, lounging area areas, and even a pool table. It feels more like a lobby of a resort than a cafe.
When I approached the coffee counter, no one was there at first, so I wondered if they might not even be open yet. There was no hot food available and not even the smell of anything cooking. After walking around for about a minute, I went back to look at the menu and take some pictures. A man then came out from the back and asked if I wanted to. I ordered an iced caramel frappe.
While he was making my drink, I walked around and take more photos and videos, the space really is stunning. The gentleman who helped me was friendly, and once my drink was made, I paid and headed off to work.
A few minutes after getting settled, I finally tried my coffee. Immediately, no! Something was off. I took another sip and the overpowering aroma and taste of onion hit me. It was so unexpected and unpleasant that I couldn't finish the drink. I'm not sure what caused it, maybe the ice, the cups, or the equipment used to prepare the coffee, but whatever it was, the onion flavor completely ruined the experience. It's disappointing because I was so excited to try this place. For now, I can only leave a three star review. If I return and have a better experience, I'll gladly update this review. One more note, at 9:40am it didn't seem like any food was available to order. The trays at the front were all empty, and there was no sign of breakfast being preped. Considering the cafe is in a high profile area surrounded by offices I would have expected for breakfast to be ready, especially during morning hours. Perhaps I was just too early, but breakfast at 9:40 isn't exactly unusual, right?

Beautiful place; On 3 occasions and at different times we have gone and we have never managed to consume anything in the place, the employees take the order; but after 20 minutes they report that the coffee water is still cold, that breakfast still doesn't come out and that nothing is ever prepared. I don't understand what the point of this place is.

The food here is fire, they have a nice variety of food, and the prices are reasonable! The cafeteria’s at my previous jobs were just bleh. Thank goodness for Getsemani Cafe! Check them out =)
