My favorite coffee spot in SoDo, hands down! They make specialty coffees which I would call craft coffees (they are just THAT good) but they also can do regular stuff like a latte, cappuccino, etc. They use quality beans from a great roaster too. Long story short, they are nice and they make great coffee!! Ohh and they have caffeine free options too!! I leave with a smile on my face every time :-) Do yourself a favor and stop here for coffee, you won't regret it!! If you have time feel free to hang out, they have lots of outdoor seating and even some food trucks!!!! Thank you Madison and Edward!!!!! read more

The garden atmosphere is really cool and the people are awesome. Super friendly in that non pushy way and the service is excellent. The coffee is brilliant. Parking easy and they have a few food trucks/stands here for the snacks. Great vibes! read more

Lucid Beans - Cookie Butter Cappuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This is such a cool coffee concept in the SoDo District! We went on a Saturday morning and they were BUSY with what appeared to be lots of regulars which I love to see. The duo working (I'm assuming the owners) were slinging the drinks and taking orders. They were super nice and patient with every customer. They have a pretty robust menu with lots of unique coffee & tea options. It felt like It was in an apothecary where they make magical elixirs and concoctions. It was so hard to choose because everything sounded so good. I wanted something spritzy and refreshing, so I went with the cactus juice (ginger beer with prickly pear cactus syrup, cherry & lemon), as well as the cookie butter cappuccino -- AMAZING! The shop itself is located at the Harris Garden Center, so the outside seating is basically a plant oasis and there's also a BBQ food truck parked outside serving food. Such a little a hidden gem and I highly recommend checking them out! read more

This cute little coffee shop snuggled in between a flower shop and some food trucks, has the best coffee and vibes. The owners are so nice and there is so much options to choose from! Not only are the drinks cute! But they are also delicious and themed! I could come back here a million times and there would always be something new to try. read more

Another place I'm just not getting the hype for I guess. $20+ for 2 basic drinks and a tiny flavorless cookie? I get supporting small local businesses, but at those prices your product needs to actually taste good. I do like that they don't serve dairy milk but wish they had more options than just almond and oat. read more

Lucid Beans - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I'm a huge fan of coffees with cayenne pepper. I live in Tampa but was in Orlando for the weekend and woke up with the caffeine monkey on my back the day I was leaving to head back home. I got online and looked up places and saw this place had some unique options with cayenne and cacao. I drove 40 minutes off route to get the worst tasting coffee I've ever had. I gave the place 3 stars still because my friend ordered a specialty biscoff coffee and that was pretty good. And all of the staff were super sweet. I'm sure had i taken a sip before I left, they would've been able to make me something else. read more

A fantastic cup of coffee and a great little spot. Everything was perfect, the coffee was perfectly roasted and served at a wonderful temperature. The milk was perfectly foamed. Everything tasted wonderful. Everything was prompt and the barista was insanely helpful. Would recommend! read more

T his is my hidden gem in Orlando. It's ran by the sweetest couple who make amazinggg coffee, matcha and more! I always try something new every time I go, and I love that they are open to making things that aren't on the menu sometimes. It's not pictured, but the latest combo i've tried was their Guava queso latte. A combo I would have never thought about, but they complimented each other so well. It's a must try!! read more

Cute place but tiny! Almost missed it when driving past. It was poppin right when it opened. Limited parking. Inside is cute only 2 spots to sit so not really a place to sit sip and work. Got a chai tea drink. Was flavorful, maybe a tad on the sweet side? Servers were kind and informative. Loved the colorful straws. Outside very green and nice to sip your drink amongst the plants! read more

I love that this place is close to my house and it's in a garden (well, garden center, but still)! The ambience is relaxing and magical! I love supporting local small businesses so I had to check it out! I got the Pumpkin King and it was delicious! Service was friendly! This place is becoming so popular, they may need to expand the staff! It was a bit of a wait on my coffee but I expected that and it was totally fine! They were working as fast as they could! I will definitely be back to try some other menu items! read more

I participated in the Coffee crawl and was around the area so my sister and I decided to put Lucid Beans in our GPS and check them out. It was located in the SODO area, right in a little plaza that had a BBQ truck, and a plant nursery. We went inside and were instantly greeted, in which we explained it was our first time. I had decided on the White Lotus which was a toasted vanilla chai espresso with a sweet cold foam and wowwww!! I love a good chai, but it was perfectly fall and like a warm hug! My sister ordered the Mirkwood Matcha which was a purple sweet potato & brown sugar spiced matcha and it was also a banger! I definitely enjoyed our drinks, and can't wait to try more on the menu. This place is a hidden gem for sure!! read more

I'm always looking for places with unique drinks, particularly tea as I'm not a big coffee drinker, and not that into Boba. I finally stopped by with the dog in tow and could not have been happier. The service was amazing. They were super welcoming to me and my dog, even giving her a couple of treats. I got a butterfly pea flower tea latte and it was heavenly. I'm looking g forward to working my way through their full menu! I've been several times now and have yet to try a drink that I didn't like. read more

My new favorite coffee shop! The sweetest owners, clean, quality ingredients, DELICIOUS! I'm obsessed with their Chai, they make their own blend! The location is super cute as well, you can sit outside and read or check out the plants for sale. Add this spot to the top of your list!! read more

By far my favorite coffee shop in Orlando and we even buy their whole beans to make at home. The quality is exceptional in every way. Every drink is made with love and their service is so kind and sweet. I was following them around while they did pop ups and now that they have a set location I can visit all the time! This time we got the espressito. Another favorite of ours is the dalgona and the bitter beer latte. I especially love that they're located at a plant shop now because the atmosphere is beautiful calm and serene and there are some food options if you come around lunch time on certain days. I look forward to continuing to be a frequent customer!! read more

Excellent cookie butter latte and delicious fresh sourdough. Cute interior and vibe outside too.

We were welcomed as soon as we walked in. Menu is easy to read. Owners offered help in exploring their options. We ordered three iced drinks and were made perfectly. We walked around the outdoor plant nursery. By the time we walked back in, drinks were ready. Only complaint was I drank my coffee too fast it was so delicious! read more

This was an absolutely delicious experience and as much as I wanted to try everything on the menu, the Totoro Martini was iconic as my first drink and the foam texture was everything. The Kaguya's Sakura Moon Milk, was also delicious, according to my friend who ordered it. They have the cutest souvenir glasses where you'll get a discount everytime you bring them back and get another drink too! Friendly and kind service. The owners have done really well overall with their nostalgic brand and lovely atmosphere. read more

I had the White Lotus Chai. Chai is made in house. This drink was so good. Can't wait to have again!

We got the vanilla latte and dalgona coffee, both were delicious. There's no up charge for oat milk because they default to plant based, which is so nice! The two that run the shop are kind and welcoming. This was a hidden gem and I can't wait to be back. read more
