    What a cute place to pop into on our way home! Really good coffee and such cute merchandise by local artists. Loved all the murals and art. Staff was really nice.

    Cozy inside

    What a cute little coffee spot! Inside and outside seating. Lots of art work on the walls with local artist goodies for sale. Staff were very nice and quick. If you're in Cocoa Village definitely give them a try. Very chill vibes.

    the coffee to me was alright nothing crazy, i did really like the cold foams that they offered. i got the churro cold foam which was pretty tasty on my iced latte. there's lots of seating to hang out and chill inside and some tables outside. they also had merch for sale which was cool. they attended with a smile and my drink came out pretty quick. personally just wasn't really impressed with the coffee that's why i'm rating it a 3/5

    Bespoke popsicles and some for adults only!

    Loved finding this little hipster seeming independent coffee shop! The person who took our order was wearing a shirt that said "Death Before Decaf" and the whole place has a bit of a rocker vibe. We got our bevvies super fast on a busy Saturday morning. The coffee my partner ordered "had a rich darkness without too much acidity." A teensy bit off the beaten path of Cocoa Village and absolutely worth the walk. Loved it! 10/10 would recommend.

    We always seek out the local coffee shops, and this one is ELITE. The espresso is the real deal, and you can absolutely taste the craft and care in their housemade syrups. I got the Cortadito (as good as I've had) and the lemon breeze latte (magical!). The staff was very friendly and welcomed questions from the customers. Cannot recommend this place enough - just excellent!

    Great coffee, they are always doing fun events to bring in community. Their changing seasonal menu will keep bringing you back! If you are in town visiting it's a must try. Truly a great place to catch up with a friend or get work done.

    This was our very last stop before driving back home from vacation, and I'm beginning to count down the days before I can come back again and try more of their things (including the popsicles!! They looked so good) . This coffee shop is a cute, cozy, and definitely bustling establishment that really feels like a community watering hole in the best way. Their banana bread matcha was absolutely delicious (and the homemade banana milk is perfect for someone lactose intolerant like myself), and their dragonade refresher was sweet but incredibly tasty and perfect for the hot weather. The cashier was sweet and they were fast and efficient, as well as the folks making the drinks. I immediately bought a bag of beans from them as well, and I can't wait to try them later on. Check these guys out if you're in the area and want a delicious handcrafted drink!

    I visited this coffee shop twice on vacation and enjoyed it! They have a great coffee menu, with specialty drinks as well as a case of popsicles. Staff was friendly, and super helpful!

    Normal coffee

    Normally have a great experience with two of your brunette baristas. Today the blonde barista with a nose ring made my coffee and filled in up 3/4 of the way. It's a six dollar coffee. Not cool.

    Be right back, going to drive 30 minutes a day to get coffee here! Not really, but I am so glad I finally tried their coffee. I ordered a double espresso and then also a ginger bread iced latte. So delicious. The espresso was smooth and didn't have that burnt flavor like some coffee shops, and the latte was just perfect on the sweetness (not too sweet), the barista said the flavoring is made in house *of course*. I bought my 2 year old a fresh watermelon popsicle because win win, something for both of us. I love the eclectic hipster vibe inside. It definitely embodies a few shops in Orlando that I've been too, but much cleaner and classier in my opinion. This place is hands down one of my favorite coffee shops already.

Just walk through for a memorable event. "Les" was working the bar, and was friendly and very efficient. He took my order and in no time flat I was enjoying an excellent coffee called the "Dalgona". This is A Korean whipped coffee drink made by whipping together double shots of espresso and sweet cream and adding to the top of vanilla sweetened milk. It was delicious!! Coffee options include Espresso & Lattes, Specialty Lattes, Craft Brewed Coffee - including French Press, Pour Overs, and Frappes. There are several Tea options as well including matcha, green, chai, Yerba Mate, and Black (to name a few). This is a really cool place with exceptional drinks! I highly recommend you check them out and support locally owned businesses.

If you're ever in Cocoa Beach, do yourself a favor and visit this beautiful and amazing café. You'll love it!

    I'm picky about where I have breakfast because when it's local it's often a regular old diner with…read morethe same dishes as other places. Merritt Island Pancake House is different from a typical diner. Even though at first this looks like a low-brow diner, the special touches say a lot. They keep with the islands theme in the decor, dishes, etc. There is a whole wall with colorings from children who have dined here. There yummy dishes with lots of gluten-free options (I had GF lemon blueberry pancakes that were great). Something that impresses me is their fruit choice--blueberries, blackberries, strawberries--instead of the typical cheaper fruits. I was really glad with the eggs because they even taste better (creamier) than a typical diner egg (like possibly cage free brown). Maddie was my server and she was sweet, easygoing, and good with the menu. I'd like to bring my girls here and was glad I tried it.

    Mixed review: Generally a 5-star experience. SERVER: Today,…read moreAlex, our server, was excellent. Super service. Plus, he was personable & friendly. Attentive. Professional. I asked for some lemons in my water "to kill the taste of Cocoa city water from the mainland". And Alex brought a cup full. Just enough to do the trick. He understood. FOOD: The food was great, as usual, except for the burnt sausage bits in the gravy. That was unusual and disappointing, but we were so hungry we ate it. Eggs were perfectly cooked as ordered, and pancakes were excellent (the best of any restaurant pancake anywhere) Sorry, Mom. ATMOSPHERE: Generally, the decor is plain. American flags, Firefighter logos, etc. Some art (attached) OPERATION: BUT today, Father's Day, they must have been short-staffed. The restaurant was about 25% full, lots and lots of empty tables, many tables covered with dirty dishes. Servers were moving quickly with one female server ambling about as if they were closed and hoping everyone else would do whatever needs to be done. It was 25 minutes until we were seated. Then, Alex was great. Then, we waited for our food. The entire restaurant was filled with the strong smell of burnt food. Real bad. Over one hour later, our food arrived. It was hot and, by then, we were extra hungry. We had a great time talking and sharing stories as the time passed. Usually, there is a line outside and all the many benches inside and out are full of people. So, you expect to wait, but today there were very few people. About 4 groups ahead of us. I do recommend you give them a try as the food is usually great.

    I was in desperate need of coffee yesterday so I asked some people under the Myrt Tharp Gazebo…read morewhere I could find a good cup of coffee. They all said absolutely OSSORIO bakery across the street. I got there about 9:30 AM and there was a line so obviously they're good. However, the line moved very quickly! They're very quick taking orders much faster than Starbucks could ever hope to be and not only taking your order but getting it to you. I appreciated that. It smelled so wonderful in there of roasted coffee, baking breads with just a hint of cinnamon in the air. If I could put that in a bottle I would definitely use it as an air freshener! Everyone was so friendly and understanding because I was in desperate need of coffee so my ability to articulate wasn't great. The coffee was perfect, just the right amount of milk and sugar I didn't have to change a thing. I'm up in Cocoa Village occasionally and I definitely will be stopping in here. I didn't get any of their pastries or food but everyone else who was having it said it was fantastic. Definitely worth a stop!

It was nice and hot and the pizza was enough to share but the meat was way too done and just meh. We sat outside enjoying the sun and service was fine. There's parking in the area. Would return to.
