What a great coffee shop! It was busy so everyone knows a great place when they see it! Service with a smile and coffee was top notch! We tried some of the classics and were not disappointed! Cold brew, latte and matcha... anything you get, is well worth it and before we leave, we might be back a second day in a row!
Cute and busy coffee shop. I stopped in on my drive from Orlando to the panhandle for coffee and a driving break. I found this coffee shop to be full of people meeting, studying, working, etc. I had my 8 month old baby with me and did feel like this wasn't the most baby friendly space for us. I didn't want to disturb those around us so we left pretty quickly. Aside from that, the coffee was great. I believe I got one of their seasonal options- a carrot cake latte. I also ordered their granola which was a large portion and very tasty.
I'm a fan of Resident & Wyatt's so I was super excited to see that they were having a matcha pop up for the month of April. The matcha pop up is with Hue Matcha where they are showcasing some amazing matcha drink offerings. While it's not a full service offerings, I do love that from 8am - 12pm you can still stop into Resident to meet up with friends or get some remote work done. I had my eye on the banana pudding matcha latte with oat milk this morning. They were also offering blueberry matcha scones for $6 that looked so delicious. I did enjoy watching them whisk the matcha and prepare the drinks to order. The matcha was very good and not too earthy. There was a subtle sweetness to it that was simple but good. The cold foam with the Nilla wafer definitely gave that banana pudding feel to it. I also would have preferred the original one just because the quality of matcha was so good. However, I love the simplicity of this pop up and hope that Wyatt's and Resident implement this as a regular pop up or sell this matcha in their store. I'm looking forward to stopping by next Monday!
Love, love, love this place! Their specialty- the Resi coffee is my new favorite coffee. It is delicious and they use milk from a local dairy and there is a hint of orange that takes it to the next level. The pancakes are also to die for! The space is great, and the service is excellent!
the coffee was so bad? the resi tasted like they threw orange zest into the coffee and called it a day. the waiter was really nice though and got me a different drink, which i thought was very sweet of him. i then got the sherry coffee, which is their seasonal drink, and it was SOO below mediocre. i got it with oat milk but i feel like it shouldn't have changed the taste THAT much like it felt borderline undrinkable. breakfast tacos are ok but it's not worth coming back here for that. however it was a nice place to get work done. not too many outlets but once we found an area with outlets it was a pretty good time
Well decided to try this place out as we were craving an iced coffee. Was pretty busy, had to wait to order , but not too long, The guy who took my order was friendly .Took my order and gave me a number to hold onto till my order was ready. Coffee #1 - basically iced coffee , they call it cold brew , milk and supposedly sugar , very bland , nothing that make it a stand out coffee. Coffee #2- was their Big Pumkin - another coffee that was ok at nest.- had a distinct taste, couldn't put my finger on it, sprinkled with cinnamon, they called it their version of a pumpkin spiced latte, they might want to reword that, not even remotely similiar. They have hipster vibe decor, and alot of young adults in their doing school work. Looks more like a UF campus coffee shop.
"The best breakfast bowl I have ever had" - my partner. I am one of these people that has their go-tos when eating out, but decided to branch out and I was not disappointed! I always love a breakfast bowl and this one was phenomenal. It had potatoes, avocado, pickled red onion, and the salsa on top gave it an amazing little kick. I tried a few pieces of the brisket and it was sooooo tender - if you're looking to add a meat to your bowl definitely go with the brisket. The latte was also delicious! This place is generally pretty busy, but we got there early and had no issues finding seating.
This spot is a great addition to the Gainesville coffee scene. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is fun and relaxed. It's definitely more of a restaurant vibe than a coffee shop vibe in terms of noise level and crowd, and they are strict about what tables can be occupied by those with laptops, so just keep that in mind if you are the type to work from different locations. The food is tasty, with a nice variety of options. I only wish the coffee menu was a bit more expansive or had a couple more seasonal options. The items that are on the coffee menu are delicious, though! My go-to is an iced Resi with oat milk.
Overall worth a try if you're in Gainesville often. But may have come in too expectant. I do think it comes down to preference so with that said all the food has a very strong corn flavor and the coffee tasted very citrusy. The avocado toast is spicy would keep that in mind. Masa pancakes are a good take but again very corn tasting. Service was great for a busy Sunday morning very kind staff. Ambiance was very friendly and pleasant.
I stopped by Resident Coffee after seeing that they recently opened. A few months back, I noticed a sign on their door during my walks along 43rd Street saying they were getting ready to open but needed some extra funding. I'd pass by occasionally with my mom to check if they had opened yet; so when I finally saw on Instagram that they were officially open, we made plans to go together. I ordered their Café de Olla, made with their house cinnamon-spiced panela syrup and topped with vanilla cold foam. It was delicious, sweet, warming, and full of flavor. At $8 it's definitely a splurge, but since it's specialty coffee made with freshly ground beans, it felt like a nice little treat. The space inside is modern yet cozy, with beautiful natural light. It's the kind of place that feels perfect for studying, catching up with friends, or just relaxing with a book. It was busy when we went, but in a good way..people sitting down, enjoying their drinks, and soaking in the ambiance. The barista who took our order was super friendly and mentioned he was Cuban, which gave my mom the chance to chat with him in Spanish. He offered great recommendations and you could tell he really loves both coffee and working there. I really hope this place sticks around because I'd love to come back to try some of their food and maybe spend a few hours working on my laptop.
My new go-to spot for remote working and brunch with friends. I love grabbing coffee downtown Gainesville but dread the sometimes wildcard of difficult parking - Resident has easy peasy parking options (such as big parking lot). The menu has some fun food options that look great for adults and kiddos. I initially tried to order a caramel latte to which there is a twist with theirs in that it has unrefined sugar and citrus - the barista was great at figuring out a good drink option alternative. There is ample indoor seating, plenty of outlets, floor to ceiling windows (love the natural light), soft lighting, and great music. A bit of a long line to order but it moved fast. The staff were friendly, made good suggestions, and speedy. If you are looking for a quick stop or a place to camp out and get some work done - 10/10 recommend trying this new spot out!
I would rate this place a 4.5! Incredible food and service. The drinks are incredible and all of the espresso is curated by the owners. You can tell their menu has thought and it leans heavily into hispanic influence which is a plus! The only downside is that this place stays really busy but it's a fast turnover and there's plenty of seating. Definitely a must try in Gainesville.
My second experience was unfortunately not quite as good as my first one here. The service was still very good, but my food and drink were not the best. The pumpkin spice latte had some flavor to it that was a little off to me and I didn't enjoy it all that much. The chorizo burrito was alright, but the tortilla was a little burnt on the outside and kind of a chewy texture. The ambiance is still very cute and very clean, my main problem this time was just with the food and drink.

My favorite way to start the day.. Great service, highest quality ingredients and dedication to excellence. From my favorite Avocado Not Toast to a rotating selection of Pour Overs. 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. read more

Very cute and aesthetic place to get coffee or brunch! They have a delicious hispanic fusion brunch menu, I tried the chorizo burrito and biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were made from blue corn and were delicious, I do wish they gave more gravy as it got dry towards the end, but still delicious! Chorizo burrito was yummy as well! Not as big as other reviews say tbh, but it was nice and had a good spicy kick to it. Drinks were good! I don't drink coffee, so I can't speak for that unfortunately, but I did purchase some beans for gifting! read more

This might be the BEST coffee shop in GNV. I've heard only positive things about this place, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. I've actually been here once for coffee, but I had to try the food to give my full review. IMPECCABLE! Most places are give and take with coffee and food, and it seems like it's usually really good coffee, or really good food. Very rarely is it both really good food and coffee. Resident is the rarity because WOW, the food quality and taste was amazing, and so was the coffee! Whether you're in the GNV just passing through or a GNV resident (pun intended) you need to check this place out! read more
I love this place! It's a really great brunch place to eat and hang out. The coffee is so good. Not that many different drink options but quality over quantity. The coffee is smooth and very high quality. The food is really good and I like their masa pancakes the best. You place your order first and they bring the food out to you. Seats can be limited during the really busy hours. Love this place so much! read more

this place is sooo cool. first off, the menu is so exquisite but also they have something for everyone. went here with my friends and they made me get the pancakes which i am SO GLAD I CAVED AND DID. the coffee is fantastic and the food is even better!! and the quality of the food is totally worth the prices. the service was quick and the pancakes didn't even hurt my tummy. pretty sure they make everything gluten free as well!! highly recommend read more
I came to Resident Coffee Roasters when I had to get stuff done for work. I got the Resi and the cinnamon roll and it was absolutely delicious. I met the management and he saw I was hesitant on trying the Resi since I originally wanted the iced caramel latte but he told me I can try something else if I don't like it. The Resi was absolutely delicious and it's my favorite! I highly recommend checking it out and it has a light airy feel to the place. read more

Here celebrating a friends birthday, I ordered a chorizo burrito and cafe de olla cold brew. The service was good and food/drink came out quickly. The ambiance is really nice and served our 9-person party. I felt like the chorizo could have been a bit flavorful with seasonings. I felt like the cold brew could have used a bit more sugar. I would like to come back and try other things on the menu in the future. read more
I've now visited resident coffee roasters twice, and enjoyed my experience both times. My first visit was to study and simply try the coffee, which was really good. I got the latte that had the panela (a sort of caramel-y flavor) and citrus. I'm not a big citrus in my coffee person, but this was really good and well balanced. I was also surprised to hear that they make all of their own syrups in house! Seating is a bit tough if you were there to study as it gets busy really quickly, and some tables are marked off for no electronics. However, my second visit was to go meet a friend and we had the best time! We decided to have brunch and I got the superfood bowl and though I'm not really sure what was in it, it was really good!! I'm not usually the biggest yogurt person, but this just had so many textures. It was hard not to like it! Usually cafés are either really good at food or really good at coffee, but I'm so happy that there's a spot that excels at both :) read more

I was so excited to have another coffee shop in this area, they had a vision and they absolutely nailed it. Walking in it felt modern and clean, the Latin music was playing keeping it fun enough to hang out but not to loud that you couldn't study. To my surprise they also have food! I definitely thought it was just a coffee shop, but the food was delicious and the coffee was excellent. As a fan of coffee I'm seeing this one easily move to the top of my favorite coffee shops in Gainesville. read more
It is quite literally the most perfect coffee shop I have ever been to. I have been drinking their coffee for a while and was so excited when they announced that they would be opening a shop. The shop is so cute! The earth tones and plants make it so cozy and welcoming. The music playing was so vibey and soothing. It was the perfect vibe for studying, getting work done, or just hanging out and enjoying good coffee and food with friends. The coffee is my favorite in Gainesville. I got to try to Cafe de Olla Cold Brew which was DELICIOUS. The vanilla cold foam was absolutely amazing. It was the best cold foam I've ever had by far. We also ordered food. The masa harina pancakes were so tasty. They are corn masa based so they taste a little like corn but the combo with the fruit makes it so light and tasty. It's not overly sweet despite all the yummy fruit flavors combined with it. The Kentucky chicken biscuit might have become my new favorite breakfast item in Gainesville. The biscuit is made of corn so it's great for gluten free people! The chicken is cooked perfectly and the breading is so light and tasty. The egg was cooked perfectly. The sauce that is on the biscuit was so amazing we were literally trying to scoop off what was left on the plate with our forks after finishing the food. The service was of course amazing. Everyone I've ever met who runs Resident are always super friendly and their staff at the cafe is no different. They were wonderful at making suggestions and checked in on us. Truly an amazing experience and one I could not recommend enough for everyone to try!! read more
This place has some YUMMY matcha! I keep coming back to-2 weekends back to back! The first matcha I had was delicious! I typically prefer sugarfree vanilla syrup in mine but because they don't offer it in the shop, I went with their vanilla and it was really good. This place is POPPING though! I like that it's a big coffee shop and LOCAL so lots of seating, food options and modern design, natural light, big windows and friendly staff but I call this place club "resident." It's like everyone has flocked to coming here which great for business but the students are now crowding up the shop with their belongings and it's just a lot people and a lot going on-I'm so used to coffee shops being so chill, quiet and relax so it's definitely a different vibe perhaps it's different closer to when they are about to close. I still will come back as I have yet to try their actual coffee and food! I've heard good things about their good. I'm so glad coffee shops are actually having real food and not just pastries to their menu! I think also coffee shops are becoming the new "in" thing before deciding to go to an actual restaurant. Definitely try Resident, so happy it's on the northwest side of town! read more

Great new breakfast spot we found by an online influencer. The coffee was their authentic bean and on point. The food was excellent, full of flavor in every bite. This being our first time here, the service was excellent. The woman at the front taking our order was patient and explained the concept to us. The vibe in the restaurant was pretty cool, with soft lighting and positive energy all around. Watching the baristas do their work was added entertainment and how they navigated the "rocket ship" of a coffee machine was impressive. We highly recommend Resident for your next cup of coffee and breakfast bite. We will be back! read more

Honestly was so hungry that I destroyed the brisket burrito before snapping a picture. It was super fresh and delicious! I also ordered a tasty nitro cold brew! My friend ordered the avocado not toast, bacon and cafe de olla cold brew. She loved the earthiness of the masa, which paired nicely with the pickled onion and avocado. The cafe is spacious with lots of area for studying. Servers are very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back! read more
