This was a pretty good coffee shop. Both the coffee and pastries were very good. I would definitely come back here. The service and ambiance here was pretty good. The inside and outside were very clean. The only downside to this place was it was kind of slow. Overall, good coffee shop and I recommend it. read more

I didn't get a chance to try their lovely bakery options however did get to try the coffee. I ordered a recommendation from the server for something sweet which is the beekeeper latte, which was amazing. I went mid day and there was no line, so everything came out fast. read more

I think either I sold this place short last year, or the pastries have improved. I'm especially partial to the morning bun, but the cinnamon roll had plenty of fans in my house. It's also a reliable stop for coffee (and they'll also grind some beans for you to stock your vacation house), and for brunch -- with an especially nice piece of french toast, crispy on the outside, incredibly tender on the inside. And the service was very friendly too. read more

My fav coffee whenever I go down to FL beaches! A bit pricey but expected for the area, and I will say the coffee is great! I normally get a cereal milk latte with whole milk. I have been to multiple locations and would say it is pretty consistently great! Also doesn't taste too artificially sweet. As for breakfast, the pastry items are OK. They are good, but I don't know if it is worth the price. For a meal, I got a turkey, egg, cheese sandwich with sourdough (not pictured) but 4/5. The vibes are always good at this coffee shop. The service was slow, but it was SO busy - 4th of July weekend! Normally the service isn't too bad. I recommend checking it out, whether it is just for a coffee, or sitting and eating to enjoy the restaurant. read more

Still my fav coffee on 30a. Lots of people beefing about the 15% gratuity when you buy food, and agreed that sign is small but I don't think it's that criminal. I'd tip that much anyways so whatever. I do have to say their SEG sandwich isn't that great. Too much biscuit and the egg wasn't great. But their pastries are lovely. read more

I agree with the 3 star rating for this place. A lot of pastries to pick from but they were just okay, and seemed to be pre-frozen. We tried 3 in total. Breakfast bagel Sammie lacked flavor. Bacon was mushy and the there wasn't enough cheese. The coffee was smooth but for someone who loves creamy lattes, the tan line wasn't sweet enough for me. It's a busy place, even on a Thursday, but it didn't knock my socks off like I expected. read more

Caution! This place with tax the hell out of you that isn't discovered until checkout. There is an automatic gratuity of 15%, there's an Arts & Entertainment (A&E) of 2.5% then of course there's state tax. The food on the other hands was mediocre at best with the standout being coffee. The artisan breads and pastries look good although I got burned on my order of Sausage, Egg & Cheddar biscuit as the sausage was a dry puck and biscuit was so big all you really tasted was biscuit. It's a lot of biscuit! You can have this place Seaside and every patron is best served walking 100yards to the A I R streams of food choices. Again, BBB does have good black coffee. Having to do it over, I would have ordered a bacon, egg, cheese on bagel, maybe. read more

Wonderful coffee and breakfast place. The staff is very helpful and takes time to assist you in anyway they can. It's nestled in a beautiful part of Seaside with indoor and outdoor seating options! Try the Beekeeper latte(honey, almond milk and sea salt) or the Hummingbird latte(lavender, honey, oat milk and sea salt), both very yummy! read more

Excellent service from Ms. Hannah and team @ 30A, provided excellent service. The gluten-free sandwich is the best with no seed oils. Highly recommend this coffee and bread co. It's located right by the seaside of 30A, a famous beach in Panhandle Town, Florida. read more

Black Bear was disappointIng because, for some reason, they cut back the amount of yogurt in their granola , fruit, and yogurt plate. They reduced it be 3/4 so that they shouldn't even mention that the dish has yogurt. We asked why and they said that's the new serving. Congratulations, you ruined a great dish. read more

Had to try this place while on vacation since the first time we drove by, there was a line out the door. We got there 3 minutes after opening and there was already a large line. We waited at least 30 min to put our order in. The specialty lattes (tan line and cereal milk) were both good but enjoyed cereal milk a little better because more flavorful. I found it interesting they didn't have anything caramel flavored on the menu which is my husband's go to. They had a large pastry menu- my kids got the sprinkle cookie and the cinnamon roll. The cinnamon roll was huge and very tasty! We didn't try any breakfast sandwiches but probably would next time. I was honestly just not wanting to wait. The cafe is cute and has plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy your coffee. It's nicely nestled into the Seaside area so convenient for grabbing something and then doing some shopping read more

Delicious food! Service was great and if you go at the right time, you don't have to wait super long. Seaside is a busy place so if you go before 8AM, you don't get in the rush. (If you plan for breakfast) Cute, small space on 30A! read more

Best breakfast sandwich of my life time! The pastries... incredible! Please do not miss out! read more

If you order a large coffee it will be mostly milk. There are 2 shots in every size they make so if you get a size small you will have a stronger darker latte. The pastries, breakfast sandwich, and kids grass-fed burger were yummy. The pastries we enjoyed were the pistachio, croissant, almond croissant, chocolate chip cookie, cinnamon roll, and the lemon blueberry scone. We loved them all. The olive rosemary sourdough bread was delicious we used it for sandwiches at home. We also grabbed loaves of the multigrain and plain sourdough. Expect to wait 20-45 minutes outside as this place is very popular. It's a great location right in Seaside area where the Truman Show was filmed. read more

Very good, the service was great and it's nice and cozy inside, also definitely recommend the Cereal Milk Cold Brew!!

My family and I were staying nearby for a week on vacation and this was a frequented establishment for our coffee and breakfast hankerings. This is a cute little shop located right off of 30A right next to the town-semicircle in SeaSide! Walking in you can see the awesome pastries, breads and other breakfast items and smell the espresso dripping into their craft lattes. The staff was friendly, offered good suggestions and it was a quick turnaround time! They make their own syrups in-house and I had to get the Honey-Lavender Latte with a splash of oat milk. I am a sucker for honey lavender and they crafted this latte well, the perfect combination of coffee and sweet syrup! I also had to get a slice of sourdough toast (as that is what they are known for) and it was AMAZING!!! I immediately went home and spread on some Kerrygold butter and I really do not believe that it get's better than this! This is an absolutely must-try if you are in the area! read more

While we did wait in a line out the door, it was well worth it! From the outdoor porch to counter it was about 10/15 minutes. Once we ordered our drinks were ready in about 5/6 minutes, and food about 10 minutes after that. My husband had the breakfast burger, which had some delicious bacon! One of my girls got the cinnamon roll (delicious and pretty sweet! Big enough to share for sure!), and my other day and I had the sea salt bagels and cream cheese, very good! Our drinks were the Hummingbird (YUM!), Black bear latte and Mocha, all great and not too sweet! We ate outside and had a lovely morning there! Service was nice and fast. read more

Delicious even if it is pricey! Worth every penny! Best coffee and pastries, the burger is awesome as well! Line gets long, so go early!

My friend and I stopped in for lunch--I ordered the BLT with a fried egg, and she had the avocado toast with a poached egg. The food was absolutely delicious! The service was decent; you place your order at the counter, and the staff brings it to your table. The music playing in the café added a nice touch to the atmosphere. There were a few annoying flies, but aside from that, both the place and the food were fantastic! read more

Charming spot for a morning pick-me-up! The coffee selection is impressive, and they pair it with a solid breakfast menu and a tempting array of pastries. Prices are on the higher side, but that's pretty standard for Seaside. Service is decent--nothing flashy, but friendly enough. Overall, if you're in Seaside and craving a good cup of coffee, this is your best bet, especially since options around town are a bit limited read more

Super long wait, small indoor area! But worth it for the taste! I loved my iced chai latte with lavender and vanilla syrup, super good! The staff was super sweet although they were super busy! Very expensive with all the tips they add on. read more

Really surprised their rating is so low. This place is great. Super cute space with lots of shaded outdoor seating. Great coffee. Great pastries and breakfast sandwich. I had the pop tart with mixed berries. Perfectly tart and not too sweet. BEC uses Nueske's bacon which is soo good. I'd highly recommend. read more

THE. BEST. BREAKFAST PLACE. EVER. Absolutely loved this spot. The line is always out the door but the staff is so good at making sure your food and drink still is ready quickly and correctly.

Seaside - Be aware that the lady at the register automatically adds a 15% gratuity to every order (without advertising it or telling you) and then you will automatically get prompted by the register to add an additional tip. I felt like this was intentionally deceptive. We were a party of 4 and each ordered individually and it was on every ticket. Keep in mind you order at the register, you find a table, they bring you your food, and then you bus the table yourself. Also, a friend had an issue with her food and when she went to the register to ask if they could fix it, the lady was very rude and wouldn't do anything until my friend produced her receipt. Even then the lady acted rude and bothered and started throwing dishes around to the other workers saying something about getting it fixed. I felt bad for the poor young man working there who was so nice. My friend was almost in tears because of the experience. The food was just fine. Not worth the bad experience though. The lady at the counter was older with grey and purple hair. Also, every store in Seaside charges you a 2.5% A&E 'voluntary' tax on each purchase. My group gave the City plenty of money the first day so the second day we caught on and started asking merchants to remove it. They say it's for the markets and concerts, but yet the market vendors get charged to set up. I feel like this is excessive. read more

The good food is overshadowed by the arrogant tip culture. To automatically include a 15% service fee (tip) and then ask for an additional tip?! Absolutely ridiculous. And then the server who brought out our food had an attitude and begrudgingly brought our drinks to our table. I find it noteworthy that the owners never respond to the comments made here about this practice. read more

Stopped in on a Tuesday morning around 8:15. About 15 minutes wait. Only tried the coffee. No caramel flavor but have others and state they make their own flavoring. Pastries looked good and fresh. Medium coffee with a flavor is $5.75 a cup. Line died down around 9:30. Coffee was ok service was ok. One person commented about gratuity, but I was offered a screen that allowed me to choose what to give read more

Not worth the wait. Food was decent. Waited 30+ mins for very decent food. I think it's just a monopoly in Seaside for breakfast.

Food is excellent and service was excellent. Been there twice in the past month and sat inside both times. The flies inside are awful. Way too many flies that you are constantly fighting with. They need to invest in ceiling fans or do something to control the flies. No matter how hot it is I'd suggest eating outside! read more

Good food. Good service. Great coffee, never a super long wait either. In and out. Really good iced coffee

The experience at this place was really disappointing. The staff was rude, there was nowhere to sit, the customer service was terrible, and the food wasn't good at all. I don't understand why this place is so popular on social media, but I wouldn't recommend it. Save your time and money. On top of that, an older lady with grey and purple hair was rude to my friend when she pointed out a mistake in her matcha order. My friend had asked for oat milk, but the employee used whole milk instead. When my friend called her out, the employee was rude and insisted she had used oat milk, even though it was obvious she hadn't. My friend is lactose intolerant and ended up with bad stomach problems because of the mistake. read more
