The outside of Cym definitely needs a spruce up but when you walk in it is surprisingly nice. The space is divided up into several rooms where several people had their laptops out working or studying. I had a hot latte that was warm at best and a raspberry croissant. The croissant had a nice raspberry flavor but the latte definitely could have been much hotter. The coffee though was good and no sweetener was needed. They have a nice outside porch area with a fan for sitting when the inside gets too full or if you just want to enjoy the outdoors.

I ordered an iced latte with sugar‑free caramel and oat milk, and it was absolutely delicious. Smooth, perfectly balanced, and honestly better than a lot of big-name coffee shops. One thing that really stood out to me was the espresso. If you're tired of overly sugary drinks with barely any caffeine, this place will surprise you. The espresso has an amazing flavor with a clean, satisfying nutty aftertaste. I usually have to order extra shots at other places just to get any real coffee strength, but here the balance was perfect . It was bold without being bitter, strong without being harsh. You can tell they care about quality and I love that they source their local coffee. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming, and even let me know that on Thursdays and Fridays they carry pastries from Bushel & Peck, which is such a treat. It's the kind of small, local spot that makes you want to come back just to support good people doing things right. If you're in the area, definitely swing by. Whether you're grabbing coffee before work, between errands, or after a gym run, this truck is worth the stop. Great drinks, great service, and a great local business to support.

You can sit inside or outside and be perfectly content either way. Great coffee, friendly people, and a relaxing atmosphere--definitely worth a visit!

Was really excited to come do some writing here. The place was crowded, but there was an available…read moresmall table, so I sat down to write. The furniture is sturdy but not necessarily comfortable, but it was good to have a chair with a back due to all my back injuries. About fifteen minutes later, a barista came up to me and politely told me it was a "No Laptop Zone" and I had to move to either the bar seating or outside. That's my bad for not reading the sign taped to the table, but at this point there aren't any groups of friends coming in to have personal connections. But okayyyy so I move to the bar seating and it hurt my back to sit there. Since I have a glass, I decided to move to the outdoor table until I finished so I could go work somewhere else? The outdoor table is super sticky and also not comfortable (very flimsy metal patio/cafe sets. Not a lot of space for your belongings). Not only that, a toddler in the "no laptop" area is hitting a wooden car on the windows and tables and I'm not sure how I'm not allowed to sit there, but unruly toddlers are. Very glad to have those personal connections. Anyway, I've been here a few times and the coffee has always been good and I like to get the interesting flavors. I've never had food here, but as someone who grew up eating tacos constantly, my friend's breakfast taco that she got once looked standard but personally I can't speak on that, but I think if you're just looking for a coffee it's fine? But if you're looking for a cozy place to work, the furniture is super uncomfortable and just be wary of their no laptop tables. If I had known this would be my situation, I probably would have chosen one of the other coffee shops in Gainesville that has cozier seating and more free work areas.

The food here is very consistent! I usually get the sausage egg and cheese biscuit sandwich but one…read morethey run out of the biscuits they use English muffins which are definitely not my favorite so be aware of that. The biscuits that they make are amazing and as far as every pastry I've tried so far I have thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them including the raspberry almond croissant and I don't even like raspberries so that says a lot! The service is great in the mornings but the last time I went in the afternoon I wasn't a fan of the attitude some of the workers had so I'm definitely sticking to mornings. (I chose not to tip because of how they greeted me and unfortunately this was the time the food was bad so I was very upset) Over all I love this place. I am all about an honest review. I love the decor and over all vibe of the place. I hope that one day they're able to expand a bit and have comfier seating so that people could stay longer and enjoy the atmosphere as well as continue to purchase more of their products!

I have driven by this place a number of times but havnt stopped in until recently! Karma Cream is…read morean all-vegan cafe and bakery near downtown. They offer a variety of baked goods, beverages, and even ice cream that's all plant-based and organic. Part of the reason I've never checked Karma Cream out is due to the fact that they are 100% vegan. I am by no means a vegetarian or vegan and have typically found that vegan foods just don't taste as good. Although my preconceived notions were definitely proven wrong as I had two incredible baked goods from here! The cafe is quant and inviting. They offer plenty of seating and it looks like a great place to study. It is kept clean and organized as well. The service was super friendly and they seem to know locals well. The woman taking my order was able to help me decide on what to try, which I appreciated! Their baked goods appear to rotate, with some staple items and other seasonal/special items. The bakery case has plenty to offer between cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and more! Everything was super fresh as there were even workers bringing out freshly baked items to replenish the bakery case. I got the snickers brownie and a raspberry white chocolate macaron. I'm not going to lie, these items were a little pricey coming in at $10. I guess this should be expected when considering the ingredients going into the products. The brownie was recommended to me and it didn't disappoint. The brownie had the texture of a Betty Crocker mix, which I wasn't expecting for a all-vegan baked good. It wasn't dry and honestly had pretty good flavor. The whipped "snickers" icing on top was really amazing and complimented the brownie nicely. This wasn't an amazing brownie, but it wasn't bad either. The macaron was really good though and it was extremely reminiscent of a non-vegan macaron. I was the most impressed with this item and would recommend. The raspberry flavor was spot on and very fresh--delectable! Overall, I am glad a took a chance and checked out Karma Cream. The items I had didn't taste like they were vegan at all and were good. The service was wonderful and the atmosphere very welcoming. I really appreciated how clean it was too. I need to come back and try their coffee or matcha, along with their ice cream! I will certainly be back and look forward to trying more.

I went in around 2pm yesterday for a mid day pick up before my walk in the park. How cute is this place! It is located in the developing/renovated Streeteary area with other amazing local businesses. There were alot of students here on a Sunday either studying or just meeting up with friends. I ordered their iced matcha latte with oat milk and went with their seasonal syrup, sweet potato. I am not a pumpkin spice girly, so I was super excited for their sweet potato syrup. I watched them whisk the matcha and put my drink together. I really loved how homemade the syrups are and you can tell that the staff really enjoys what they do. Now for my drink, it was delicious. It was creamy, earthy, with a hint a spice all in one sip. I really like the matcha they used, as it pairs well with the syrup. The sweet potato syrup wasn't overly powerful but they did inform me it wasn't sweet so they added a touch of vanilla to it. For me, I prefer it like that because I'm not a fan of overly sweet lattes. I could see myself ordering this again. I do want to try out some of their other matcha lattes as they offer such an amazing variety. I'm looking forward to stopping by again with my laptop or just grabbing a drink for my errand run. Definitely check this place out!

They also offer seasonal flavors, which is always a fun bonus! Their theme is "Build What You Love," and they absolutely have. Owners Titan and Sofia, both students at the University of Florida, wanted to create a space that brings a sense of community and brings people together--and they certainly succeeded. Brewing Thoughts is beautiful, welcoming, and spotlessly clean inside. Besides the great service and delicious coffee, I love that each cup is served with a little sprig of baby's breath attached. What a beautiful and personal touch! If you're looking for a coffee shop with great drinks, a welcoming atmosphere, and thoughtful little details, I can't recommend Brewing Thoughts enough!
