46 Best Coffee Shops in Tallahassee

“The best coffee shop in town. Paper Fox has great single origin pour overs. The Kraken is an excellent short and their tots and breakfast sandwich will leave you satisfied. The staff is friendly and highly talented and the atmosphere is inviting. I highly recommend this coffee shop.“

“Great experience! The baristas were super nice and you could tell they love their jobs even tho it was a packed house and they could have easily been stressed - nope! They were vibing and churning out delicious drinks. We got vanilla Cortados with oat milk that were divine! Espresso is top tier. I’m so sad it was so cold we couldn’t enjoy the gorgeous patio overlooking the lake but it would be amazing in warmer weather. Such a quaint coffee shop. 10/10“

“This place is great. Something for everyone.“

“This is a lovely place to spend an hour. Delicious coffees, teas, wine, or local beers, while petting kitties: what more could you ask for? I love that they cap the human capacity at ten patrons in the cat room per hour. It doesn’t overwhelm the cats or the humans. The place feels upscale, clean, and is one of my favorite places in town. 10/10 recommend!“

“Every location of Lucky Goat Coffee is great, but definitely the one on Adams Street is my favorite.🥰 The atmosphere is always cozy, and the service is super friendly. My go-to order is the Brown Sugar Caramel Latte ( it’s smooth, sweet, and absolutely delicious). Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a perfect coffee treat!“

“Friendly staff and great coffee! The house frappe is the best“

“I had an event last night at La Florida Coffee and Wine. I would highly recommend having your events here. They catered the entire event. The food was not only phenomenally delicious it was placed so beautifully for serving. Jean and her staff were awesome and I want to thank them for their professionalism, hospitality and so graciously taking care of all our needs.“

“Lucky Goat Coffee is absolutely worth the stop off I-10!
We popped in and ordered an Oat Milk Latte and the Snowflake Crunch Latte—both were fantastic. The espresso is rich and smooth, and the oat milk latte had that perfect creamy balance without being overly sweet. The Snowflake Crunch was a fun surprise: velvety, lightly sweet, with a hint of hazelnut. If you’re a seasonal latte fan, this one is a must-try.

The café itself is clean, welcoming, and clearly loved by locals. There’s tons of merch, plus whole bean and ground coffee ready to take home—perfect if you want a taste of Lucky Goat in your own kitchen. Whether you’re fueling a road trip or looking for a great everyday coffee spot in Tallahassee, Lucky Goat Coffee delivers quality and personality.

If you’re driving along I-10 and need a great cup, this place is absolutely worth the diversion. Highly recommended for coffee lovers, travelers, and anyone who enjoys supporting a local favorite.“

“This is the place for a Coffee Connoisseur. The unique flavor specials are always something to look forward to. The staff is very friendly and contribute to the monthly creative coffee concoctions. Definitely worth the wait in line 🫶🏻“

“Best coffee in Tallahassee“

“If you know anything about Greek mythology, you’ll have a deeper appreciation for Argonaut coffee.

It’s a real cute little shop right across the street from Cascades Park, so we took our coffee to go and went for a lovely stroll outside.

Most of the drinks here are Mythologically themed- Aphrodite, Apollo, Hercules, you get the point. I tried the Persephone, which was a pomegranate flavored coffee. Super on par for Greek Mythology, if you know you know.

Yes, getting a pomegranate coffee was extremely risky, but it was so intriguing I had to try it out. And let me say, it was probably as good as a pomegranate coffee could turn out. You could definitely taste it but it wasn’t so overpowering or artificial tasting. I don’t think I’d try it again as I’d rather just have a plain coffee but I was fairly impressed.

There’s not a ton of seating in here but could be a very peaceful place to study and do work. Plus a cute gated & shaded courtyard right outside the shop.“

“I got a long day of work and was looking for coffee, i am a HUGE Starbucks fan, so this was out of the norm for me, obviously not expecting for it to be so good. I was so shocked when I tried it, its so flavorful and good, 2 times better than Starbucks in delivery when considering taste. Overall, I loved it 🥹🫰🏽💖“

“We always look for the local coffee shops when we are traveling. Lucky Goat came up and we were not disappointed . 5 star quality. 💕“

“I ordered on line (first time having trying them!), and had some weird requests about my order, I mentioned if they couldn't do that, it was okay!!! my food was great and my coffee is so good! they left me a very sweet note explaining why they aren't able to switch my food items around (understandable reason!) I had called before hand with a question as well and they were very kind over the phone as well :)“

“I have ordered from Red Owl for all 4 locations with the company I work for. Our staff of 80+ people really, really enjoy the breakfast sandwiches from Red Owl. We have a lot of staff that only eats chicken and they RAVE about the chicken, egg and cheese on a bagel. I'm not a coffee drinker; however, our staff really love their coffee too. The sandwiches are hot upon delivery and wrapped neatly and clearly labeled for easy picking for their preference in meat that is on the sandwich.“

“Everything I’ve tried from here has been delicious, both food and drinks. The shop is decorated beautifully. The service is always prompt and friendly. They also have pup cups which is a plus!“

“The food was amazing, and our server, Valentino, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was perfect, and every dish exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend it and will definitely be back!“

“Been coming here for over a year, and it’s nothing but good vibes and great drinks. The bartenders are all extremely nice and personable, and can help you find whatever you like even if it’s your first time at a Kava bar. Zach, Danitza, Shelby, Jerry, and Brazil are all amazing. 10/10 recommend.“

“Ology Coffee Co. is amazing! Went for a Realtor meet up in the morning recently and it was great. The staff are friendly, know the menu very well, and had great recommendations. Perfect spot to work or meet with friends. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Outstanding service, roasted-on-the-premises (you can watch) coffee, and made-from-scratch baked goodies. What’s not to like? 5/5.“

“Red Owl is a fantastic little coffee shop. I've only ordered coffee though they have a fair amount of things including pastries, sandwiches and quite a few other drink options. It was very quiet which was great for me though I worry about the store a bit. Go visit!“

“Always a great experience. Friendly, courteous staff super clean place!“

“Love this place...best in town,Try to get there after 8:30..I don't like to be crowded...lol“

“very friendly there. gave me a discount. actually having effects from Kratom, when I tried it before somewhere else I felt nothing.“

“It’s pretty roomy for a Starbucks. Most are tiny, but considering this location used to be a Chick-fil-A, it’s rather spacious. There’s ample outdoor seating under the covered patio, plus the standard outdoor tables with umbrellas. I gave the food 4 stars because sometimes they don’t have the sandwich I like (either sold out or perhaps not carrying it). When the sandwich is in stock, it’s toasted to perfection. The blueberry streusel muffin is always clutch although a bit pricier and smaller than it used to be. I’ve been a rewards member since 2010 and have watched some of my favorite sandwiches, bakery items, and snacks come and go.“

“One of my favorites. A true neighborhood bar. Friendly staff and try the buffalo chicken sandwich.“

“Yummy chocolate almond milk coffee and vanilla bean scones. Helped my drive to Texas“

“I go to this location like every day because it’s close to my university. I love it here, and my food is always a 10/10. The employees are super nice as well. I’d definitely recommend coming here. It’s close to FSU and FAMU so it’s super convenient.“

“Calvin's Coffee House is very relaxing and has a great atmosphere. Great space for studying or "open mic" nights!“

“Great food, great service and great place for a get together 💛“

“I had such a great experience getting coffee thanks to John! He was super helpful and really took the time to help me find the best flavor based on what I like. He was patient and kind! You can tell he genuinely cares about customers leaving happy. Thank you John!!“

“The staff at this location is so friendly and kind. I pass 2 other Dunkins on my way to work but this is the location I always choose because they are so nice. They also have the best quality of all the locations I've been to. The staff all deserve a raise!!“

“How do I begin to express my WONDERFUL experience at this Starbucks location. It started with the warm and friendly greeting from my barista. The barista took my order and it was made to PERFECTION! Not to mention how fast my order was completed as well! There are so many Starbucks locations in Tallahassee but this one will always be my go to!“

“What a delightful little gem in Books-a-Million! I really did like this place alot and do plan on returning. The barista was very friendly and attentive, still smiling even not long before closing. The hot chocolate he made me was so smooth and delicious. I ordered a spinach and feta pretzel which I had never had before and it was excellent! Very unique pastry! I also loved how relaxing this coffee place is. Everyone should try this section when roaming through Books-a-Million. You won't be disappointed. Perfect little area to read a book or hang out with a friend!“

“First I just gotta say, this place is inside whole foods. Maybe if you live here you already knew that. So to the service. I'm horrible at ordering fancy drinks. The super friendly barista took the scattered description of what I wanted and made me a delicious pumpkin latte over ice. DELICIOUS. That's the kinda hospitality that will make me visit this stand ever time I'm in Tallahassee. Thanks again.

Right inside the entrance to the right.“

“The workers and coffee are awesome just surprised that you can’t tip the staff every Starbucks I’ve been to they have a tip jar and for them to be understaffed the way they are at this location is very surprising the franchise owner needs a reality check if they want to keep good employees those guys/girls really work their A**es off. Goes to show you another nuisances that doesent care about their employees“

“Great place to have a coffee and enjoy the view of Cascades Park.“

“First of all, this is for my people with gluten free needs
They flagged my order with a gluten allergy. I had gluten free cheesy grits, sausage, scrambled eggs with cheese, gluten-free toast with butter and jelly. The food is basic and was VERY GOOD.
I always appreciate when restaurants have gluten-free options. And support with knowledgeable staff.
I recommend it, and I would definitely eat there again.
I took my food to go so I won't comment on the restaurant interior. I do not have Celiacs but can usually tell if there's gluten.“

“They always have such a creative drink menu based on the seasons, holidays, or other events in town. The best drink I’ve ever had from Starbucks was here and created by one of the baristas!! (I think it was called “the frat boy”) Also went today and they wrote “xoxo go sip girl” on my bf’s cup and it was so funny and cute. Definitely recommend. <3“

“I’ve seen this new coffee shop at the mall a couple times. Today while indulging in some retail therapy, I decided to finally try it out! I went for the new snickerdoodle latte, and was so excited by the perfect presentation, and even more excited when it tasted every bit as wonderful as it looked!“

“I added an order of coffees and a couple of cake pops to my Target drive up order today as a special treat for myself and my family who has been knocked down all week by some terrible cold virus. My two toddler girls were so excited to get their cake pops but I realized when we parked for our pick up that one flavor of cake pop had been canceled, I assume because they must have run out. As a sick and exhausted mama I was bummed but quickly decided I would drive to Elianos for a replacement cake pop to avoid having to unload the sick kids and go into Target to choose a different flavor. I checked my Starbucks bag when we were almost at Elianos and was so pleasantly surprised to see a note attached to the cake pop bag saying they were sorry they were out of the birthday cake flavor but they had added a second cookies n creme cake pop free of charge! Starbucks really made my day today with 10/10 customer service. Thank you!!! Oh and the coffees were excellent, as always!“

“Tallahassee runs on Dunkin apparently.. even the coffee somehow tastes like donuts and I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. However, I tried their Dunkin' midnight dark roast and I totally dig it, good bold rich flavor.“
