    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.

    Hidden Gem in SODO: Lucid Bean Coffee at Harris Landscaping Tucked inside Harris Landscaping--yes, inside a landscaping business!--Lucid Bean Coffee is one of the most charming and unexpected spots in SODO. With a whimsical kitty cat theme and some of the best coffee in town, this place is a total vibe. The shop is small and cozy, with just one indoor table, but there's a lovely garden seating area outside that makes you feel like you're sipping coffee in a secret oasis. The cat-themed decor adds a fun and cozy touch, and it's clear a lot of heart went into creating the atmosphere. Lucid Bean also levels up the experience with a rotating BBQ food truck on-site, giving the whole property a cool mini-market feel with a mashup of great local flavors and some top notch service too! Must-try drink? The GOLDEN LOTUS--trust me, it's a game-changer. If you're looking for a unique, laid-back coffee experience with amazing drinks, a friendly vibe, and even a touch of feline flair, Lucid Bean Coffee is well worth the visit. A true hidden gem!

    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!!

    A small local coffee shop with a lot of unique options. The service is great. There is some seating outside that is shared with the food trucks if you want to sit for a little.

    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!

    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!

    Such a cute little shop, the outside was so fun and both inside and outside were very cozy. The staff was very friendly! I tired their cookie butter cappuccino and it was delightful!! This is deff a cute little place to study/ get work done with a nice view and good drinks!

    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!!

    Employees are always friendly and helpful. Love the Iced Chai Cappuccino. Creamy plant based milk and you can taste the chai spice which is not overpowering.

    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!!

    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!

    Golden Lotus cacao and carob pinwheel

    Treats, service, coffee options, ambience! Awesome little shop with creative drink flavors that are not typically found in coffee shops. Orlando has really exploded with local shops and this one is definitely worth a visit. Was a little tricky to find with maps, but they're In a local garden center, literally on the corner of Michigan and Shine, that has such a peaceful vibe There are also some shaded seating areas outside, amongst the plants and flowers. If you remember seeing them at events or in a food truck, they have this permanent location now. I ordered a Golden Lotus cacao blend and it has all the perfect flavor balances one could ask for Looking forward to trying many of their other coffe flavor combo creations. Small bakery treats are available fr another local vendor too, got a pin wheel with carob, very yummy I love coming across local businesses like this

    Ask the Community - Lucid Beans

    Are they open these days? Google says temporarily closed as of 7/25

    They have unfortunately moved from the spot in the nursery, but if you follow them on Instagram, they post their popups. Plus they just announced they are working on opening in a new spot.

The orange was not too over powering nor was it too floral, and I was told that they use local homemade syrups, HOW NATURAL?! The ratio from Califia Oat Milk, espresso, and syrups was all very well balanced. Overall, it was a delectable latte and I was very satisfied. Paired with my drink, I had a ham and cheese croissant supplied by Lineage. It was a flaky croissant with ham and white cheese and it was pretty tasty as well. 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 They have decent seating, mostly tables, and then I was sat at a bar top that over looked the parking lot. Nextdoor is a children's playscape when kids can run around and play, and there is a separate area for parents to sit too. The vibe is very 70s Sci-Fi and it's super cute!! Baristas were very welcoming and excited to see all the kids enter the playscape area. Overall: I would most definitely go back. The syrups tasted super smooth and the espresso was very well balanced. It was very tasty!

There is some parking in the front, but more available behind the building. They also offer a few pastries, savory and sweet if you're hungry. The windows make the place bright, but they also offer pull down shades if the sun is beating down on you as you try to work. Friendly staff. They have an indoor kids playground available for rainy afternoons, a unique feature. Note: the place is hard to find, but my GPS took me right to where it was. The facility is a church and opens as a coffee house too. They rent out there space for special events which is a great feature. Check them out! I know they'd love to meet you.

Choosing which doughnut to get will probably be the hardest decision of the day because they have SO many different flavors, and honestly, they're all delicious. What they all have in common is that airy, buttery dough that's packed with flavor. One doughnut will definitely fill you up, but they're so good that you won't be able to resist ordering more! Don't worry if you can choose the staff will provide you excellent recommendations and you won't be disappointed. Their flavors are so unique yet comforting. My go-to is the Maple Bacon. You get the sweetness of the maple combined with the savory bacon--it's the perfect balance! And don't worry if you get stuffed--there are chairs where you can sit, relax, grab a coffee, and plan your next adventure. Definitely a must-try if you're a doughnut lover!

Another reviewer accurately described it as a "cronut", or a mash-up of a croissant and a doughnut. The texture is different but the sweet factor is intact! We chose a Saturday morning to visit because our son was available and wanted to check out Parlor, since he is a doughnut aficionado. We found plenty of available parking spots. The bright interior with east-facing windows and white and blue tile made for a cheery atmosphere. Of course the doughnuts and good service add to the brightness. A French Toast doughnut, Spinach Pesto Breakfast Sandwich (a lovely savory and served in a ciabatta roll), and Proper Coffee (drip) were ordered on this visit and throughly enjoyed while sitting on comfy chairs. The laid-back, family-friendly character of the shop was a welcome change. I'd like to return in the near future after 11 am when the Savory Layered Doughnuts are being served!

    I visit this location daily and have always been patient and respectful. Today's experience,…read morehowever, was unacceptable. I was standing at the express checkout while there was only one employee assisting customers. While I waited, three vehicles were serviced, then two more, and then a third round of cars -- all while I was still standing there. After ringing the bell once, I was told to "wait," which I did. Instead of being helped, I was eventually approached and spoken to aggressively and told to "go The fuck somewhere else," which was both unprofessional and unnecessary. What makes this more concerning is the inconsistency I've experienced over time. One employee repeatedly tells me the store did not receive a shipment of cups needed to serve hot water, while another employee provides the same item without issue the very next day. This contradiction happens regularly and suggests either poor internal communication or selective service. I come here every day for the same simple request -- hot water -- and I have never caused a problem or been disrespectful. Being skipped repeatedly, then spoken to in a hostile and dismissive manner, is not acceptable under any circumstances. Whether the issue was frustration, mismanagement, or employee behavior, customers should not be treated this way. I hope management takes this seriously, addresses staff conduct, and ensures consistent, respectful service for everyone. Walked next door for my hot water instead. It's okay I'll file a complaint. Bad day or not. Instead of me responding in a negative manner I'll take the professional route.. steam coming from my head right now. How'd you guys feel to wait patient for as long as I did then get cussed out window slammed in your face.

The space itself didn't quite have the energy or atmosphere I was expecting from the concept. It's pleasant enough, but it didn't feel as unique or inspiring as I had hoped. There are enough interesting seasonal offerings that I'd happily come back, especially to see what they roll out for the fall menu as they had previous options noted on the walls and they looked great!
