    Every time I'm in Bradenton I make my way to this cafe. Their coffee is great and the courtyard to sit, relax, and enjoy my breakfast is picturesque. It does get busy! So if you can go early and snag the Adirondack chairs that sit overlooking the water. Highly recommend!

    iced vanilla almond milk chai(huge!!), plain croissant, dragon fruit bowl, everything avocado toast.

    great food and coffee! The açaí bowls were delicious and refreshing and there were tons of options for beverages(including super large sizes). Staff was friendly and it was a very organized operation. Line was long, but went fast and food and drink did not take more than 10 minutes. Cute backyard area to hangout, good amount of seating but goes quick since it is usually quite busy

    Line on a Sunday morning!

    Super cute coffee shop! Total AMI vibes. As someone who grew up coming to this beach, this is such a little gem. Lots of outside seating, small waterfront view, cute gift shop in the front. The Açaí bowls are HUGE! Come early! Line was crazy long. Waited about 30+ minutes in line, but coffee, food and vibes were great.

    We went on an overcast day so the sun was no problem for us outside. After we ordered outside, there was a bit of a wait but I noticed this place is pretty popular. I recommend the strawberry banana smoothie! My husband said the buffalo chicken wrap was meh but I enjoyed my turkey sandwich

    The setting is nice, with some canal front seating. I like the Serena & Lily style chairs. The serving window is a bit backwards you have to walk around people already waiting for their items. They have a cute gift shop. Avocado toast was good, pumpkin cold foam was too sweet for my liking, but I prefer black coffee typically. There is also an Instagram worthy "postcard" mural.

    North Shore Cafe is such a cute little gem by the water! There was a huge line (it's clearly the spot), but the staff was so sweet and quick with orders. I got the regular açaí bowl, delish and tried a matcha (not usually my thing), but honestly, it was so good. Loved the whole vibe

    This place is a vibe! It's worth checking out. I only came for the coffee and can tell you the iced honey lavender and hazelnut lattes with oatmilk were good! The acai bowls looked good and our huge! There's even a nice shop they have next to it with some good stuff especially the hats. I took off a star for what seems like the same reason everyone else has which is the service and experience. This place has a large lobby with cash registers and A/C and looks like you can order inside but for some reason they make you order and pick up from a window outside. If this place was located right on the beach that would make sense but it's not. And while the patio has shade and is very chill the place to order outside has zero. If you're the business owner and you're reading this I would kindly recommend you put up some type of shade, tarp, fans or something because standing in that line in this Florida heat and humidity for a coffee is brutal! Or open up the lobby to share the A/C with your customers because the employees sure looked like they weren't sweating and looked very comfortable.

    Açaí bowl

    Went here for lunch & got an açaí bowl which was so good- definitely recommend! It was a very popular lunch spot with lots of people but had a big outdoor seating area with chairs and tables. Food only took about 10 minutes which was surprising since it was so crowded!

    If you're looking for coastal vibes, here's your spot. The service is just meh though. You can tell they are busy all day and don't love it lol. The gift shop girl was very kind though! Such a cute gift shop with so many awesome shirts, hats, jewelry, etc. The açaí bowl was okay. Melts very quickly so it was kinda soupy. Not enough peanut butter, maybe pay for extra if you enjoy that part? The avocado toast was delicious! The lattes are average. Not enough shade as there is only outdoor seating. They definitely need more seating as well. Prepare for a line and a wait! Great aesthetics and picture wall though

    A cute outdoor patio with healthy food options. Very busy but the kitchen is fast and once you put in your order, it's out quite fast. The food was good, but options limited (esp since you can't order the "lunch" items while the "breakfast" items are still being made). FYI, the large option for drinks is LARGE!

    Stopped by here after reading the reviews online. The place is very cute, it's an outdoor window you order from and even on weekdays there was a line. I ordered a latte with oat milk and added hazelnut and caramel flavor. After waiting about 30 min in line and another 20+ for the 2 coffees and açaí bowl to come out the coffee was just okay. After seeing the long line and wait I truly was hoping it was going to be some out of this world coffee, but sadly that was not the case. It wasn't bad, just very simple to the point where I barely could taste the flavor and they forgot the oat milk too. I am not sure if it was just an off day, but for me it's too pricey for what it was. The açaí bowl was also okay, very pretty but nothing to rave about. Not sure if I would give it another shot, but I'm hoping it was just an off day because the place was cute and I loved the aesthetics.

    Delicious sourdough poached eggs & great coffee. The cinnamon honey syrup is a nice touch. Parking is a little limited but they also offer delivery

    An excellent açaí bowl at North Shore! There was a line but it moves pretty fast. I wasn't overly impressed with the coffee but the service was friendly. Cute little tables and chairs to sit if it's not scorching hot out, otherwise I am not sure if there is any seating inside.

    Long lines which they could do more to keep moving faster. Food is overpriced and OK
