So there really isn't much I can do since the #LocalCoffee spots aren't ready for me at 5:30 or even 6:30 am. This one was open when I parked and rolled in before dawn at 6:20. Not much going on, it was actually rather quiet inside as I spent nearly two hours charging electronics and sipping at a not terrible blonde roast. My everything bagel needed another run through the toaster and I do miss when they used to have flavored cream cheese. I stayed until people started arriving and moving chairs. Starbucks likes these wood chairs on their tile floor and it makes a heck of a racket. On to the next! [Review 946 of 2024 - 1824 in Florida - 21974 overall]

I did not expect to receive the drink like that. The barista made a face and mimicked my comment under her breath, not nicely. When I received my replacement it appeared to have been mixed together with the whip cream rather than remade. I didn't realize this until I had driven off and tasted it. A wasted $6.72. Very unpleasant experience by a rude employee.

Only thing that I wish was that it opened up earlier so that I could enjoy it before work; 8am coffee is a little late for us early risers but that being said still my favorite coffee place in all of Gainesville and appreciate the dedication to high standards of excellence.

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.

They also have outdoor seating on the patio out front. Concord Coffee offers a nice selection of drinks with unique syrups, etc. Although I didn't order coffee this time, I would be willing to try it in the future! The staff is super friendly and helpful. Their pastry case is limited and I believe they get their baked goods from somewhere local. I wasn't sure what to get and the worker recommended any of their pastries, as opposed to their bagels, as they were delivered fresh today. I ended up ordering the cinnamon roll, she heated it up and that took about 5 minutes. The cinnamon roll itself wasn't anything super special. The dough reminded me more of that of a croissant due to its flakier consistency. The glaze on top was light and the cinnamon inside was underwhelming. I still didn't have a problem with it until I reached the center. I noticed the center wasn't fully heated up and even felt slightly cold. But my biggest issue was the fact that the dough in the center was very much raw. It was not cooked/baked through at all. Disappointing to say the least. I would not return for a pastry or baked good, as I believe you can find better ones around the area for a better price. But I would return to try the coffee. Overall, I think Concord Coffee is a super cute coffee shop located in midtown. The staff is really sweet and helpful as well. I thought the inside was clean and I appreciated the decor. With that that being said, I would stick to beverages as opposed to their food items. My cinnamon roll was anything but special, I feel like one from Publix would have left me more satisfied. By biggest issue was definitely the fact that it wasn't baked through and raw in the center. I will get around to trying their coffee at some point in the future.
