Incredible organic health food store. Home cooked lunch, organic coffee, delicious shakes and home made cakes.The owners are so knowledgeable about health AND have a bookstore. Go visit!

It’s so fun to write a review for a place I truly love! Orchard is my go-to destination to meet dear friends and share the best coffee drinks ever! We were there yesterday at lunchtime, and Maggie brought out her newest creation - (drumroll) homemade !!bagels!! and an amazing “stoup”. Sure didn’t taste healthy… smile. I was stuffed halfway through but finished every bite! Asked if she had take-home bagels but already sold out. Jeff and Maggie are amazing people, kind and knowledgeable, and so willing to do whatever it takes to make an “experience”, not just put food on the table. The temps outside were in single digits and Jeff pulled a space heater right up to our table. We all laughed, shared stories, talked to other customers, sampled some items, made a coffee purchase for home…. then waddled out totally satisfied and thinking about my next visit. Thank you dear ones, for all you do. Grateful here.♥️???☺️

Great food and drinks. Great assortment of supplements and bulk herbs and spices. An extensive library my vegetarian daughter utilizes often. Family friendly. My kids love this place and so do I!

The Orchard is the BEST bistro to eat at in town for Gainesville. Everything is made fresh and there is almost a different meal eat day. I’ve been several times and haven’t eaten the same the meal twice. Service is excellent. The smoothies are the best smoothies I’ve ever had and now refuse to go any where else.I am looking forward to trying out their herbs and health supplements.Highly recommend if you haven’t visited yet!

Nice place I got the dark chocolate vinaigrette that tastes nice.

They usually have everything I want and need. All natural loose teas, protein drinks, supplements, vitamins, personal care products...everything. The owners are super helpful and just plain nice to be around! I also prefer to shop local so it's a win win for me.

I was pleasantly surprised! Thought I’d write a review due to the very friendly atmosphere and many things this place has to offer. It offers a HUGE variety of organic healthy hard to find vitamin supplements along with herbs and powders for pain, allergy’s, blood disorders, diabetes etc. GNC and CVS DOES NOT carry for health benefits and healings. They carry military surplus and apparel like 5.11 boots, pants, shorts and other cool gadgets which I was told will be expanding in the future. Their freshly ground coffee is AMAZING with full caffe baristas. There is more to browse over. I did notice on the wall they had university certifications for being certified holistic herbalists which explains why they were busy helping customers in their herbal health section. I see myself being a frequent customer.

These guys are awesome! I am working to create a running club in Gainesville, and the Orchard has been incredibly supportive! They make awesome muffins and a fantastic espresso! I also really enjoyed their matcha protein shake and their drip coffee!

This small business is a blessing for this city. Grateful they provide nutritious food and drink considering the nearest Whole Foods is 40 miles from here. The store is beautiful, unique, and historic. The service and products are top notch. Thank you for providing this accommodation to the community.

They charged me $22 for something I can get on Amazon for half the price. Ridiculous.

Excellent food! Well prepared and delicious. We are just sorry that we didn’t get an extra sandwich for later! Can’t wait to come back! Love this place!

Odd antique/army surplus/1970's vitamin shop vibe. Came in for lunch but seemed to catch them off guard, as if they don't actually get people in there to eat. A man & his mother(?) seemed to be running things and we eventually got a very basic sandwich & salad with Plastic service wear. This "restaurant " really seems like a front for a club or organization.

The Orchard got me through the recent cold snap and blackout. I have a few Dietz oil lamps that I purchased from The Orchard but one lamp in particular really saved the day. It has a small cooktop set up that I regarded as a novelty until I lost power and heat. I was able to make coffee, cook soup, and all sorts of useful things with it. It will now be an essential piece of camping gear for me. I highly recommend The Orchard and I highly recommend the Dietz oil lamps they sell. They are so easy to use, even the one with the cooktop which easily converts to a normal oil lantern when not used for cooking. Thanks for saving the day Orchard!
