14 Best Coffee Shops in Gainesville

“Great atmosphere and good coffee.“

“We tried their coffee today at the White County Chamber event. Lovely setup and great coffee! ☺️“

“I went to this coffee shop around 9am in the morning. There were only 3 customers and 1 employee initially. I was immediately drawn to the airplane decorations making it seem like you are on a flight including seatbelts. The trash cans also had the shape of a stewardess trolley. I ordered a London Fog latte with a shot of vanilla that tasted very good. The early morning calmness and intriguing atmosphere made it a memorable experience. Would definitely return again.“

“This cafe is absolutely PHENOMENAL! We’re visiting from Indiana for a wedding and decided to get breakfast out at Diletto! We LOVEDDDDD the omlette, steak quesadilla, pancake, croissant, and lattes (chai and coffee). I would 100% recommend this cafe to anyone looking for amazing food and an adorable atmosphere.“

“First of all, the place is extremely clean, the weight staff is incredibly friendly and courteous, and the food is not only delicious and well proportioned but also very reasonably priced considering inflation. It’s sort of a sports bar atmosphere, but who cares when the food is so good and so reasonably priced. There are literally no decent restaurants in Gainesville in spite of the fact that it’s a rather large city and has two major college campuses so this is a welcomed addition. Finally, they have a robot that brings you your food during the week. It’s a lot of fun.“

“Went here for lunch the other day. The atmosphere inside looked great with a wide variety of hot & cold drinks to select from as well as other food items. I ended up selecting a small cappuccino along with a grilled cheese panini. The cappuccino was delicious and gave me a boost of energy. The panini while initially looking fairly simple, surprised me when I took the first bite. The cheese inside was truly melted and smooth, but not too heavy. Just the right complement to my cappuccino. The service was also friendly and cordial as well. Overall a pretty good first impression.“

“Danny’s Donuts is a family owned eatery featuring handmade donuts and breakfast sandwiches, but also offering ice cream, smoothies, and coffee. It is located in a nondescript shopping center near Main Street and Jesse Jewell Parkway. There are five locations in Gainesville (2), Flowery Branch (2), and Buford (1).

We ordered six dozen donuts (glazed, blueberry cake, maple bacon, apple fritters, cinnacrunch) and a Smoked Sausage Breakfast Burrito.

Customer service was solid and my breakfast burrito was ready within an appropriate time frame.

All of the donuts were fresh, fluffy, and tasty. I particularly loved the sweet saltiness of the maple bacon. My husband woofed down the apple fritter before I could even ask to taste it.

The breakfast burrito is simple - meat, cheese, egg, diced potatoes, tortilla. But it is also delicious and filling.

I am in Gainesville periodically for work. I have been told never to visit Gainesville without bringing a box of donuts home. I am also intrigued with their donut and ice cream concoction.“

“I've driven past Scooter's a few times while passing through Gainesville. Today I was able to drop by and try them out. I generally like my coffee strong and not too sweet. I was recommended the s'more cold brew with an adjusted sweetness and I also got the maple waffle. They definitely hit the spot. Great service as well!“

“Good food at a reasonable price. The owners were very nice as well as their staff. Great service, good food, friendly staff, reasonable priced what more could you ask for?“

“We accidentally ordered our usual 2 drinks from a different Starbucks. We are traveling and do not know the area. The Starbucks here in Gainesville, GA remade our drinks for us, no questions asked! The staff was awesome, and the drinks were warm and tasty! Thank you Starbucks Gainesville!“

“Las arepas y los tequeños son deliciosos. El precio ne pareció muy justo. Definitivamente recomendado.“

“Our experience at this Starbucks was top notch. Rosemary who took our order was personable, and service-oriented. She noticed i took the stopper out of my drink and asked if we preferred to not have one in my wife’s. Obviously, that paying attention to small details blew us away. Furthermore, my wife’s breve chai was made to perfection- and she readily admits she is more than particular about her drink. Customer-service like this has seemed to fade over the years and we wanted the staff, and community to know how exceptional they were! Thanks so much Starbucks Thompson Bridge!“

“awesome vibes friendly people that makes your experience a delight“
