Serendipity Brews is easily one of my favorite spots in Mount Dora. Great beer, seriously good food, and some of the best service around. The staff always makes you feel welcome and the whole place just has a great vibe. It's the kind of spot where you stop in for a beer and end up hanging out way longer than you planned. Good people, good food, cold beer and just vibing in Mount Dora. What more do you need? read more

This place is exactly what the definition of the name is! Locally owned and operated and one of the few you'll actually see the owners working in on a regular basis. Come for the coffee, beer or food. Stay for the vibe and real people. Come back for all of the above! read more

I wanted to grab a pick me up from a local spot and stumbled into this cute cafe. The guy was nice and helpful and recommended the brown butter bliss - it was so good I brought my husband back the next day & also tried a banana matcha as well as a hot honey pizza bagel. I liked sitting at the bar and chatting but they have plenty of tables as well for studying, working or just having a nice drink! They host open mic nights, karoke, etc so definitely a gem in the neighborhood! read more

Coffee and beer! Truly a place for the brews. We came for coffee but bought a few beers to take home. This is a super cool place in Mt Dora with cool vibes and a nice relaxing space inside. Staff was very nice and helpful. We tried a couple of the beers. Got some coffee and enjoyed it there. Very cool place with some great beers and great coffee. read more

Unfortunately I can't comment on the food. Sat at the bar, was never acknowledged. Turns out the owner/manager was sitting beside me, talking over me to another customer, never acknowledged me. As I stood up and left, neither said a word. Guess they didn't need the business. Cody's instead benefited. read more

What a true gem in Downtown Mt. Dora. Best coffee and cold brews around. The wife had the Avocado toast and I had their special buffalo chicken bagel pizza which were both amazing and full of flavor. The staff were on point and friendly. So much so, we ended up back here at night for some delicious craft beers! Amazing selection. Definitely recommend this little shop when visiting Mount Dora. read more

I had a simply decent experience with a delicious parfait. The yogurt was hearty, not runny, fresh fruit, layers of honey, & fresh crunchy granola. So good! The spot was cozy with lots of seating. They have a kitchen that brings food to your table, but no servers. The bathroom is adorable, but very small so not mobility friendly. Unfortunately as expected in old mount dora. I visited on a busy art festival day, and i noticed some staff acted frazzled which came off a little rude. Im going to assume it was a fluke due to a busy time because that parfait was so good. read more

This is a great place to grab a coffee or a craft brew. Seeing how it was 11am I opted for the former ...and maybe someday will try the latter, ha! I opted for one of their specialty drinks - the "Smoked Cappuccino". This is an espresso, with choice of milk, rosemary syrup, smoked with cherry wood chips and rosemary, and served hot. The employee was attentive, friendly, and polite. He had my drink made in a matter of minutes and my 16oz drink ($6.00) was delicious! The inside has a bar area seating for approximately 6-8 people. Additionally, there's indoor table seating, as well as two outdoor tables for those wishing to enjoy the outdoor experience. I recommend you check them out!

Serendipity Brews - Smoked Cappuccino 16oz - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Dora, Florida

It's been almost a year since we've been back since our awful experience the first time. Thank you, Dave for serving us last night. You were very kind! I forgot what the beer was called - but it was a 7.7% ABV Belgian blonde. It was the most refreshing beers I've had in a while. The place was kept clean and the Halloween decor is on-point. I wish they didn't get rid of the couches for the lounging area. Live music was played only outside, which was kind of a bummer. read more

My husband and I enjoyed our time at Serendipity brews in Mount Dora this weekend. We came in with our dogs (woo! dog friendly establishment) and were greeted by the woman in charge. She was kind and sweet, asking to pet our dogs and ensuring they had water. My husband ordered a 16 oz beer and I ordered a 5 oz beer. We sat in the back at one of the tables to cool off after having been at the dog park. The ambiance was laid back, chill, and TAYLOR swift - which I loved. They had cute decor on the wall. We will definitely stop in and try their coffee next time. read more

This review is just about their coffee/service/ambiance, we did not eat while we were here. The first thing that I noticed when walking in is that it's set up like a cozy bar. You wouldn't think they were selling coffee, but you can definitely smell it when you walk in as well as see all the different options to choose from on the board. Definitely creative when it comes to the coffee selections, never seen something like it anywhere else not even starbucks. You can tell that there was a lot of thought put into these crafted drinks. I order the raspberry one (I forget the name of it). It was really good but I wish I had asked if it would be sweet because it was way too sweet for my taste, but the flavor in itself was great, it didn't taste artificial. My friend ordered the smokey and she thought it wasn't sweet enough so we end up switching our drinks and happily sat on the comfortable sofa while we looked at the retro decor. It gave me 90's flashbacks being there. They had a bunch of craft beers listed as well so if craft beer is your jam, I'd try it out; but as for me, I'd definitely come back for a coffee here. Well done, well priced, great service. read more

Serendipity Brews - How did they know tho?! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Dora, Florida

We walked in and waited. The barista was there helping a couple in front of us. We were not greeted. She went to the back so we decided to use the restroom. We came out and she was still not back. When she came back, she continued to help the couple in front of us. We still were never greeted. Then she went in the back again. Absolute worst service! read more

This place is great. We actually stopped twice while we were in Mount Dora. Both times my kids got sodas and my wife and I grabbed draft beer, cider and mead. We didn't eat any food, but we tend to drink our calories. read more

Cute little spot, walkable street parking. Few spots outside to sit and eat inside a handful of spots was pretty packed when I went. There are also bar spots. Did eat food just coffee. Ordered the $5 mocha, the hot chocolate with coffee twist was good, didn't taste overly sweet. A nice assortment of unique drinks. The baristas were quick and friendly. Would come here again when in mount dora. read more

Great place to stop in for a bite, coffee or just learn about Mount Dora from a local or two. I was out for a walk and started getting way too hot (cause you know summer) so I stopped into Serendipity Brews to cool off and grab an iced coffee. As I was looking at the menu they had so much more than I thought, from coffee drinks to booze drinks and from a simple bagel to a hearty breakfast burrito. They also had an area that looked like a band preformed at. The staff was super nice and gave some tips on places to stop by. I not only got my coffee I also stayed a bit to chat and got a bagel which was WAY better than expected! I would absolutely make this a stop on my list. read more

We recently spent a day in Mt. Dora and this was one of the last spots we tried. It's a nice and cozy space serving coffee, sweets, and beers. The people working were friendly and happy to give recommendations. We tried a few different beers and enjoyed them. The best one for me was an Untitled Art red velvet pastry stout recommended by an employee. It tasted like red velvet cake in a glass, very rich and indulgent. It was the perfect nightcap to end our evening. I'd definitely come back here either for coffee or beers and just to relax for a bit and enjoy the chill atmosphere. read more

Absolute favorite bar in Mount Dora and I'm not even a huge beer lover. Great cozy, homey spot to hang out at and every time we visit it's either Nate or Mara behind the bar and they're both awesome!

AMAZING! The vibes are immaculate, everyone is super sweet, and the food and drinks are bussin beyond belief. The bagel pizza bites quite literally brought my friends and I to tears they were amazing!!!! Absolutely go here it's such a vibe. (Also service is top notch) :) read more

Yum yum yum! Such a cute and quaint coffee bar. They offered many seasonal options, and the barista suggested the Christmas Crack, so on her suggestion that's what I tried! She was also very attentive, as I had asked about the syrups being non-dairy and she said they all were (yay for them for thinking of that!!) However, I completely forgot to ask for non dairy milk in my actual latte!! The barista caught my error and actually came over to me as I'd waited and asked to confirm the milk! I was super impressed with her attentiveness! I let her decide for me and she made an excellent choice of cashew milk! My drink was AMAZING!! Sweet and salty, such a combination I never thought to have but perfect!! read more

Really cute coffee place in Mt Dora. We were in the mood for a festive coffee and this place definitely fit the bill. Such clever names for their holiday coffees and a comfy interior. The first coffee was served on the cool side not hot so we asked for her to make another and she did. The rest of our coffees were nice and hot and tasty. I had the Mariah Freaking Carey- just the right amount of peppermint and chocolate. My sis in law and mil got the Cookie Butter - they both enjoyed it. read more

Serendipity Brews - Magnanimous Thiology - IPA Trippel 10.5% - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Dora, Florida

I did not have any food when I was here, so this review is primarily focused on the beer. I was driving back up back roads from Orlando and looking for a brewery or taproom to buy a beer. Found Serendipity and they had their beer list on Untappd, where I could easily see ratings. Beers all in the upper 3s to mid 4s, which is a sign of a great beer spot. This is a quant little shop in a shopping district in Mt Dora just to the east of the lake.Ample street parking, both on the main drag and down the side roads. The place has a couple of seats in front and is cozy inside. I have pictures of the front, including seating, the door, and the bar area. There is also a little seating area in the back. This is a combination of taproom and coffee house, with some food items, as well. I was here for the beer and Serendipity did not disappoint. This day there were brews from breweries like Arkane, Tripping Animals, and Stoneflower Craft Mead. Only 14 taps, but extremely well curated. The bartender and barrista was very friendly and offered excellent service. The ambiance is chill and very inviting. If I am down this way, I will definitely return. I will also consider getting some food and/or coffee next trip. read more

I've been wanting to check this place out forever and wow was I disappointed. When I walked in I was really hopeful--such a cool concept to have craft beers and coffee. There is a small bar when you walk in and a cozy seating area in the back. I had never been there and with the unique setup, it's not very clear where to order a coffee. The dude behind the counter couldn't be bothered to say hi. After I stood there for about a minute he pointed over to the end of the bar where they take coffee orders. I placed my order and was looking around the counter when I found their seasonal menu. I asked the guy if I could switch my order and he said he had started making my drink already. Ok cool, no problem--I let him know I'd just order the other drink in addition to the one he was already started. He finished making my coffee, handed it to me and went back to chatting with the guys sitting at the bar. For all of the hype this place gets, their customer service is terrible. Oh and the coffee was overpriced and tasted burnt. What a really well thought out space with an awful execution. read more

this place was a little local spot we decided to stop at before heading out of mount dora. the guy who made our drinks was really nice - i noticed a summer menu they had included an iced mango matcha which i certainly have never seen or had before so i decided to try it. it was super different and honestly pretty good! i love that they had things on their menu you don't see very often. it had a cool hangout spot towards the back of the coffee shop with cool decorations and seating. read more

A cute coffee shop to sit and sip on a brew and maybe have a cake. We ordered the carrot cake to accompany my cappuccino. Honestly, the coffee was not a show stopper. The cake was delicious! A huge slice for sharing. A nice place to enjoy the atmosphere of Mt Dora read more

Serendipity Brews is in a wonderful location. There's a lot of coffee options in Mount Dora, but Serendipity Brews definitely holds its own. They have a really interesting atmosphere. It's the first coffee shop I've visited that has a DJ perform select nights. I ordered the Johnny Cash, which is coffee with 2 shots of espresso. In more common coffee terms, I ordered a black eye. It wasn't my favorite caffeinated beverage, but it gave me the caffeine I was looking for. No complex notes and it tasted somewhat burnt. My guest had a smoked cappuccino, which they really enjoyed. I'd come back here! I would most likely opt for one of the more creative beverages. read more

AWESOME coffee shop located on the main drag in Mount Dora. This place is adorable and super instagram-able if that's your thing. I am all about ambience and delicious coffee and they definitely exceeded my expectations. The coffee was delicious and the guy making it made it with love and I tasted it down to the last drop. I ordered a caramel latte with a double shot of espresso. It was excellent and he added some salt to make it more of a salted caramel. It was amazing. It came in this adorable yet large mug. Great value. I took a red velvet cake to go and was so glad I did. It was airy yet delicious and if they have it when you go, I highly recommend you try it. read more

Delicious coffee and tea selections. An IMPRESSIVE selection of beers and fun ones on tap. We enjoyed the chicken wrap a ton and the avocado bagel was tasty but we wished the bagel was a bit crispier and the avocado had been flowered like other pictures showed. Flavor was good but presentation was lacking. ps! Dog friendly!! read more

A sweltering hot day outside called for an immediate beer. Saturday early afternoon, surprisingly not many people inside this main street cafe where there's usually a lot of tourists walking about. Not a ton of seating inside, but was able to squeeze a party of 5 at one of the tables. Decided on the Avocado Toast ($8) and a draft beer ($7). Beer comes out quickly, local IPA that was hoppy and pleasant to sip on. Toast came out a little bit later - a layering of ripe avocado, tomatoes, and some seasoning over toasted white bread. The bread itself could have been thicker to keep the ingredients intact, but otherwise a good pairing with the beer. Service gets by customers quick and the drink menu is extensive. Would like to see some smaller snacks to go with the beer but otherwise a solid respite along the street. read more
