They have electrolysis water that is interesting but very enjoyable. It's a smaller shop but makes the most out of its space. The service here is great.

Along with working in a coffee shop I have also visited hundreds of them over the years and I can…read moresay without hesitation that Social House Coffee absolutely stands out. It's just a quick scooter ride from my boat, making it an easy destination whenever I need great coffee and an equally great atmosphere. The staff are the most welcoming, professional, customer-focused, and genuinely personable team I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I am always glad I stopped in. The shop isn't large but it is a warm and inviting with comfortable indoor seating as well as a pleasant outdoor shaded seating area in a great neighborhood on Herschel Street. Coffee nerds will appreciate the beautiful Victoria Arduino Black Eagle espresso machine, a fitting centerpiece for a café that clearly takes its craft seriously. I also appreciate that they still offer 2% milk as an option as many coffee shops have eliminated it in favor of only whole milk and alternative milks, so it's a welcome choice for those of us for whom whole milk is no longer an option. Most importantly, Social House Coffee is one of the few cafés I've visited that truly embodies the "third place" philosophy and is a place you want to spend time. Whether you're stopping in for a quick espresso or settling in for a while, it feels like a community rather than just another coffee shop. If you're anywhere near the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. It's the kind of place that reminds you what a neighborhood coffeehouse is supposed to be.

Stopped by Zap Cat Espresso Bar and instantly understood the hype. This spot has immaculate vibes,…read morefriendly energy, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to cancel your plans and hang out all day. I went with one of their seasonal drinks. That's Hawt: a datil-infused honey latte topped with bee pollen. First sip hits you with smooth sweetness, then that signature datil heat slowly creeps in and lingers in the best way possible. It's bold, creative, and incredibly well balanced. Even better, it's a collab with Bee Friends Farms, which makes it feel extra thoughtful and local. Customer service was top-tier. Welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely happy to talk about the drinks. You can tell they care about both the craft and the community. Zap Cat is absolutely a place you can settle into, sip something great, and lose track of time. If you're anywhere near Mayport, this one's a must-stop.

We really liked that they use single origin coffee unlike Starbucks, lol. The space feels modern yet comfortable, with plenty of windows for people-watching or enjoying the nice weather. They offer both indoor seating and an outdoor patio, making it a great spot to sip your favorite coffee, tea, or espresso. They also have a nice selection of breakfast items, including pastries and muffins that pair perfectly with your drink. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and created a positive atmosphere from the moment we walked in. As an added bonus, they also have a drive-thru if you're in a hurry. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd definitely stop by again.

The parking right in front isn't the best but there is ample parking in the shops surrounding the business. The environment was lowkey with several patrons on laptops or catching up with friends. I had no idea what I wanted but definitely wanted to try their drinks and a biscuit. I ended up having them customize an iced caramel latte and ordering a cheddar and cheese biscuit. Everything tasted amazingggg. The biscuit was fresh and I didn't feel heavy after eating it. The latte had the perfect amount of sweetness. Both items complemented each other well and the pricing was very fair. They do sell their own coffee and it seemed like everyone had a cup. I think one of the better things about it is the drive-thru for people who don't want to get out the car. I am confident enough to use the drive-thru now that I have a go-to order. I rate this place a 10/10 and I will definitely be back to try some of the pastries and different coffee flavors.

Selection: Banana Bread Latte (Hot, 16oz with oat milk) If banana bread ever took liquid form--this is it! From the first whiff to the final sip, the aroma and flavor perfectly capture that warm, baked goodness. The oat milk adds a creamy depth that complements the banana notes beautifully. I'm usually a 12oz Java connoisseur, but this time I went 16... and still left wanting more! Final Sip: JAX Coffee Company has brewed up lasting memories and easily earns a spot on my "must-return" list. A true MUST TRY for any coffee lover in Jacksonville! .5 (4.5 of 5)

I loved seeing that. I noticed they had a wall of tee shirts and other things for sale. I loved the high ceilings. The decor was nice & cozy.

The food is also incredibly good, and you can't go wrong with anything. Their baked goodies are made fresh daily, and everything I've tried has been delicious. If you want to have lunch, the club wrap is so good--you must try it. The staff is always friendly and the owners are lovely people.

Lotsa tables without being crowded at all. Outlets available all around the room. Cons: Essentially an advertisement for the church surrounding it. At 8 the space is full of teens. At 9 there are toddlers running around while their mothers gather to chat. Very loud. At least 5 tv screens cycling between essentially 4 images, one variant being about coffee. One for grief services. One for preschool. One for divorce services. They do not offer decaf espresso. I'd say that if you can look past the running screaming under-supervised children and the constant advertisements for rather depressing topics (other than coffee and preschool) and churchy vibes it's a good place where you know you'll get a seat and an outlet. I personally won't be returning.
