How anyone can rate this below a five boggles the mind. It is clean, cozy, minimal, but refreshing. Quality coffee is hard to find unless you go towards Atlanta. The baristas are interactive and all about customer satisfaction. Coffee is delish. Bagels are amazing. Love that they have assortment of fun kombuchas. Keep it coming Meadowlark!

My favorite coffee shop in GA! The staff is so welcoming and friendly, and the owner's expertise in coffee is shown through the awesome selection of beans from across the US and beyond. Their seasonal drinks are so thoughtful and incorporate amazing homemade syrups. Pastries are delivered fresh each morning, and the cinnamon roll is out of this world! I recently attended one of JP's cupping classes and it was a great way to meet new people, try some coffees I probably would have never tried on my own, and learn more about coffee in general. 10/10 recommend if you are in the area!

Coffee is amazing, I went and got a bloom latte which is pretty much a flower iced coffee. INCREDIBLE! I gladly will drive out of the way for good coffee, awesome pastries and wonderful friendly staff. Don't go anywhere else if you're in the area.

Best espresso I've had in a while. Fruity and juicy...It was great. Also had the apple turnover and it was also very good. Gainesville is lucky to have such a good coffee shop in their city.

Meadowlark is a great local coffee shop. The cozy environment, the attention to detail, the staff, and the amazing quality of their products (coffees and pastry) were 10/10. I love the small cozy environment, but also a great spot to just pick up from and head out for a walk around the square.

The coffee here is amazing. So much better than the coffee shop around the corner. The staff is always friendly, welcoming. It's cute and cozy. In the area for work so I always stop by during lunch to grab a coffee.

Been meaning to write a review for a while now--Meadowlark is such a wonderful coffee shop with the BEST coffee and staff. My personal favorite was their seasonal chocolate orange latte. Definitely the best coffee in the area!

Aesthetic - on point...cute location, limited seating. Golden milk- more like a chai. Cappuccino- more like a latte. (& I asked specifically if they knew how to make a cappuccino...& he assured me they did) Kinda disappointing considering how well it's marketed. Hopefully it was just a "bad day"

4.5 | very cool ambiance and really good coffee. had a drip and cortado, my friends had an americano and a latte. we all really enjoyed the flavor and the preparation. solid spot and would definitely put this high on the list of coffee spots in Gainesville. service was also rlly great! cute coffee shop with all the fixings of a coffee connoisseur. they had sey, black and white, and other great bean selections. we’ll be back next time we’re in town.
This is the best coffee shop I've been to in Georgia! I ordered a latte with their peach fermented beans. I watched the barista/owner froth the milk into the perfect velvety texture, and knew I was in for a treat. The espresso was perfectly extracted! Knowing how fantastic the coffee is here, I would've ordered a cortado. I'm so excited to find a excellent coffee shop and can't wait to go back. Service was execeptional, pricing was great, and the espresso is served with carbonated water (if you know, you know).

I'm elated that there is finally a coffee shop in Gainesville making coffee of this caliber. Boasting natural process coffees on the espresso menu and delivering attentive customer service is more than enough to earn my favoritism, but JP's latte art sealed the deal. A big thank you to everyone at Meadowlark and I look forward to visiting again soon!

Swung in as we were shopping in the square because this location is great being just off the square. Love the fact that you can tell it is locally owned and coffee is their passion. I'm not one of those coffee drinkers whose order is six or seven words long so I normally can tell pretty quickly the quality of the coffee I'm drinking. Coffee quality at Meadowlark is great so if you're a simple coffee drinker like me or someone that likes elaborate orders you can't go wrong getting your coffee here.

My husband and I stopped as we were traveling through Gainesville, GA. The couple running the place were very friendly and the service was great. My husband had the Columbian house drip, and I had the Peach Latte. Both were very delicious, high quality, and we would would recommend. We also got a loaf of sourdough bread to munch on during our travels. They were kind enough to slice it up for us. We will definitely come back if we are in Gainesville, GA again.Dietary restrictions: Had variable milk options including oatmilk
I was in town recently for a wedding and Meadowlark gave me the much needed jumpstart every morning!Awesome vibes inside the shop, super friendly and helpful staff and delicious coffee.Although there was a bit of a mixup/delay with an online merch order I made, they were quick to apologize, offer a refund and still overnight me the merch after I reached out.Keep being awesome!
