We ordered a number of Açaí bowls and they all got devoured and no complaints. They give you the option for peanut butter or almond butter, both options tasted great. Good size portions. The seating area was really nice with plenty of seats and tables. Wish someone was willing down the tables as there were a number of tables that were sticky. The line was long, but moved quickly. The setup to order was oddly positioned, but seems like you'd order where the line forms and then pickup closer to the street, however the set up isn't that way. Went to get some shirts but the lady working was simply rude and we left. Overall, not a bad place to grab a bowl, smoothie or coffee. read more

North Shore Cafe - Açaí bowl - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Anna Maria, Florida

Believe the yelp reviews..not TikTok Before heading to the beach craving something cold and somewhat healthy was on my mind. The aesthetic of the store is really pretty, there is no inside so you order from a window and wait for your order outside. The person inside yells out your name for you to pick up your order. The backyard has pretty white gravel rocks and a seating area. The line although long, moved fairly quickly, the girl at the cashier was friendly and welcoming she also recommend a few things etc. Now on to the food - the Açaí bowls are really big definitely shareable. I ordered the açaí bowl, which on the menu says açaí , strawberry, blueberry and mango... unfortunately that is not the bowl I received, my bowl had strawberries and bananas and almond butter.. no mango, no blueberry. If there was a shortage or not available I'd expect for the staff to communicate that when placing my order .. which was disappointing. I also ordered a croissant but that tasted like a bjs Costco croissant lol idk why I expected homemade lol. The bowl was also very watery nothing like coconut water, it didn't have much flavor in the açaí base itself which was disappointing as well. Overall I wouldn't return. there other places nearby with better ratings. read more

I'll start by saying this is a really nice place. Plenty of outdoor seating including some seats near a pond in their backyard. Gravel and cement floors make it fairly easy to move around and they're pretty close to the beach. Our cashier was really cool and gave us an idea of drink sizes and such so we were looking forward to our food. The wait wasn't bad at all, but I was a bit confused once I collected our order. My chai tea was totally fine, but neither bowl was as described in the menu. My dragon fruit bowl mentioned mango, pineapple, coconut water, etc. I did get dragon fruit as my frozen section but got it with strawberries, bananas, peanut butter and honey. Pretty much like a regular açaí. I'd already eaten from it when I realized, so I'd say be mindful of your order. read more

This place is just ok, there's a lot of popularity from tik tok and instagram but the açaí bowls were okay, there's matcha was very bland and watered down and the chai was also very watered down and just not great quality. The service was very good, workers are very nice and it's a cute picture spot. read more

Went back to North Shore Cafe and immediately realized we made the wrong call -- should've stuck with the avocado toast. We had it before and it was definitely the better option. The açaí bowls this time were a miss -- not frozen and way too soft, more like a smoothie than a bowl. Not even close to what we're used to at Sweet Blenz in Vero. Still a good spot overall, just order wisely. read more

My older daughters wanted to try the TikTok hype. Food is still good. The service, was good they got the order correct at the ordering window. You still have to cross paths between the ordering window and pick up window. You still have to eat at dirty tables, you still have to clean up after yourself and you still have to cut through line to throw away your garbage and pick up the dirty handless lids. Did we not learn from Covid about sanitation? Oh and still limited seating 9 tables and 6 chairs facing the waterfront. read more

The first time we tried to stop by it was super hot and the line was oh so long! We decided to try another coffee shop instead and come back on a less busy day. We came back and the line was just as long but I was determined to try this place (for science lol!) I had Bob stand in line while I went down the street with my kiddo to pick up our delicious donuts from The Donut Experiment. When we returned he was still in line to be fair they did have a large fan which made it a little cooler. When we arrived at the window I ordered my usual dirty chai, Bob got his fav a matcha and my kiddo got a classic smoothie. The smoothie was really good and served with a boba straw which my kid is obsessed with drinking everything out of right now lol! We treated ourselves to the large cups and they were huge! The chai wasn't as flavorful as some of the other places we tried so I would probably try something different if we go back. They also have food we had just ordered the donuts so we didn't try it but lots of people around us did. It's a cute little spot with a courtyard with tables and a view of the water. They even had a gift shop with hats, dresses, jewelry and such so fun! read more

Um... okay. Their açaí bowls are good, they always have been. All I'm wondering is why are these girls working at the front so miserable?! Customer service is always going to be a pain in the butt when you're dealing with general public, (the people in front of us in line proved that) but don't take it out on the people that are being overly nice. Like it's ok!!! Anyway, it's always cute or whatever. Gift shop and all read more

This was THE BEST COFFEE we had (by far) on the island (and we tried several places). The place is absolutely beautiful and the outside space is incredible. The branding is really great and the merch selection is really next level. Now to tell on myself, when we went to order, my wedding ring accidentally dropped into a small crack between the deck boards under the counter. I panicked but the owner (Scott) and his wife were super gracious and said they'd get somebody there to pull up a board so I could get it. Thankfully there was a contractor across the street that was able to fish it out. Crisis averted! Thanks again Scott! Needless to say, I went back every day the rest of my trip and bought more coffee and merch . Shoutout to Dalton and the crew for being awesome! read more

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! read more

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. read more

Coming from up north I have never had acai before and this was great!! Service was quick and the acai was unique and very tasty.

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. read more

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 read more

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. read more

I wanted so badly to not believe the reviews about the açaí bowl. Ordered one and the blended açaí part (the entire base of the bowl) was so tasteless. The almond butter was the only redeeming factor. Please consider changing your açaí recipe because for that price it should taste good. If you can find a Backyard Bowls and take some pointers it could be a game changer for you. read more

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 read more

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. read more

The service at the Cafe was great both times we visited. The girls working the register were very helpful and friendly. I think the price is on par with other coffee spots, so we had no issues there. The drinks we ordered were delicious. However, the shop - which has some super cute options - was absolutely terrible. The girl working the register was the rudest person I've encouraged in a customer service industry in a very long time. She wasn't rude to just us - she was rude to every single person who walked into the SUPER tiny shop. We asked for help looking at a necklace and were told "honey you can do it yourself ".... Then we took a look at some shirts and were scolded being told "umh those are stock, you can look at what's hanging ".....okey dokey. Another young lady asked if the trinkets at the counter were glass to which the employee responded "umh nope, actually they are plastic". Another woman came in to ask about the restroom and was told "you need to be patient, someone is clearly in there". Not sure what her issue was - but I wouldn't spend another dime in that shop if she's working. Absolutely rude and for no reason. read more

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 read more

North Shore! Come for the view, stay for the tude (attitude). Or come to spend loot and get nothing but snoot. Either way you shake it, I've seen countless patrons given much attitude, sass and snootiness from some of the most over privileged girls you've ever met in the country. They are way too young to be this arrogant and indifferent toward others in a customer service position. They are here to earn a paycheck to pay their cell phone bills and tinkerbell makeup, teaching them responsibility, so their parents tell them anyway. Instead they bring from their homes, their first world entitlement problems to showcase and display at the North shore cafe. Sounds like a bad country song in Anna Marie island. read more

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! read more

Such a cute spot in the middle of Anna Maria island right near the beach. They have mostly breakfast foods, smoothies, açaí bowls, and sandwiches. They have parking but not a lot of spaces but there are spaces on the street. I love the aesthetic of the area with ample outdoor seating overlooking a waterway. It is a nice view and reprieve from the beach. I got the cold brew, dragon fruit bowl and the blackberry lavender mimosa. The dragonfruit bowl was huge! It filled me up for the whole day and both the coffee and mimosa were delicious. Definitely a must visit! read more

This review is based on a very short experience so take what you will out of it. We visited AMI for the weekend and we realized it's not the most dog friendly place. It's just a bummer in particular for us because we're used to places being dog friendly in St Pete. This happened to be another business that only allows service animals. Which I guess that's on us for not checking beforehand. Since we were already there, one of the people in our party stayed outside with the dog while the rest of us attempted to check out the store and the restaurant. Upon entering, we were not greeted, no one was helpful or answering questions, and it was honestly very discouraging and we did not feel welcomed. It was very off putting and we decided against buying any products. Hopefully their staff gives others a better first impression. read more

Location is awesome. Sits right on the water and pine street. We had Açaí bowls as a family - not a ton of selection and somewhat basic. Service is just okay. Quick and easy stop for a quick healthy breakfast or lunch. Pricy with okay service. read more

Such a fun, cute place to grab a coffee of bite to eat. The menu is limited and mostly consists on açaí bowls, smoothies, bagels, croissants and pastries. There are a few sandwiches options including hams and cheese and a buffalo chicken wrap, and they offered some fancy mimosa flavors in addition to Bloody Mary's and lattes. There is the cutest outdoor space with tables and chairs, right on the waters edge. You must stop and get your Instagram moment in from of the Anna Maria mural. Note: the bathroom is clean and GORGEOUS, but locked (for good reasons). Ask for a key to go pee! read more

This place is easily one of the best on the island, great vibes, good music, mostly good drinks. I waited in linen for about a hour but it moved fast and the staff had a sense of urgency. My matcha was pretty good, and my friend's chai was ok. The yogurt açaí bowl was pure perfection, and the croissants are delicious. Not worth a detour but totally worth a stop if you're near. read more

Overhyped for mediocre food. It's literally just a place to take pictures for Instagram. The line is long and the set up is so odd that it's pretty frustrating for those waiting to order and waiting to pick up their food. I truly think you should skip this place for breakfast and come here for a smoothie (if the line isn't too long) and to take pictures. read more

North Shore Cafe - Iced mocha latte in the backyard area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Anna Maria, Florida

This place is in a cozy little spot tucked in and bordering a river which makes for some very scenic views while enjoying breakfast. The staff was absolutely exceptional, but there were some things that they could have done differently in order to better serve their customers. Pros: The food was very delicious! I ordered an avocado toast with a poached egg on top and my friend ordered yogurt with peanut butter, coconut shavings, bananas and strawberry slices. The staff was all very friendly and made sure to answer any questions we had about ordering. The outside eating area is very cute and while it was hot outside, we sat by the water for a bit before we needed to find shade. Cons: The layout of this café is a nightmare. Guests were not allowed inside even though it was clear they were before, and you have one window which people order and pick up food at. You stand in a line and at the same window while we were trying to order, another worker was shouting people's names. What they could have done is had people order inside, walk outside and then pick up their food at the window. There were a ton of workers in the kitchen so we were not sure why my toast took 15 minutes to make but maybe they were behind as it was a Saturday morning. If this place could logistically look at their layout and work process, I think it would have a much better flow. read more

Skip this place. So many other solid coffee spots on the island. Less "aesthetic " or whatever you kids call it these days, but better coffee and no lines and most importantly no attitudes. I don't need to feel berated while ordering my iced latte, thank you. read more
