First time customer here. This place was great. We wanted local coffee before we hit the road back home to Georgia. The barista was so sweet. The menu was extensive. We went with the cappuccino and iced coffee with coconut mocha syrup. Delicious. Will be coming back. read more

I ask for cappuccino with extra shot... it was very good. The carrots cake was very juicy and delicious. The banana cake was excellent. read more

I would say they are awesome but two of my favorite baristas are no longer with this business for a range of reasons. They were creative and gave amazing suggestions for anyone who was willing to try something new. Since then the customer service and passion that I'm use to from this place is mediocre at best. read more

Great coffee and I love their bread puddings! Best coffee I have had in Pensacola the 2 weeks I have been here. Definitely worth a try! Staff has been excellent everyday I have been there. The place looks nice and has a relaxed feel about it. Wish I had more time to enjoy my coffee there but had take out every time. read more

They mess with their hours. Now close at 5 pm. However when I arrived at 4;30, said sorry no coffee as they were cleaning in order to close at 5 pm. Ridiculous. Close, then do cleaning. You have lost a customer. read more

6/28/21 - Went through the drive-thru to get the toffee mocha poetchino. It was as delicious as always. The barista, however seemed like he was ready to go home. Drove up and he gave a very sad hello. May have been a bad day for him, but was not expecting that since every time I come to visit the baristas were always very happy and enthusiastic. read more

Great coffee shop, courteous and attentive staff. Nice place to be on a lazy afternoon.

Great place. Best quiche. Bill and the staff are great. Highly recommend this establishment.

I stop by almost every morning (much to my wallets dismay ) but y'all these ladies are awesome sauce! And the Milton is always my go to. It's a hopping place but they keep the lines moving and are always upbeat and extremely pleasant. I can make a mean latte myself at home with my Breville espresso machine but I keep coming back to support this coffee shop because of the people who work there! Best in town, hands down! read more

No more Starbucks runs for me when I'm in Pace. The Poe is my go-to drink and is just delicious. I will usually get bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwiches also that are (they don't skimp on the meat)! I miss this place for sure when I'm working away from home. read more

Damn good coffee and an cool interior setup. I'm a cold coffee guy and this place didn't disappoint. The coffee cake is very good as well! Will return whenever I am in town. read more

I stop here almost every morning and usually as I'm pulling up to the window they already have my drink made. I'm not sure of the ladies name( she has blond hair and usually wears in in a braid) but she's is always super nice and very happy! She has great customer service skills and knows how to treat people. The other girls are nice as well. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Perfect little coffee drive through right by the interstate! Very quick and friendly service. Definitely will need to remember this one for when I'm passing through. read more

They never disappoint. My husband and I always visit when we go in to town (we live an hour away). I LOVE the one with hazelnut (I think), I can't remember the name of it. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this place !!! Truthfully I was looking for a breakfast sandwich but I'm so happy this is where I went looking. Their food menu is mostly pastries & bagels and I ended up sticking with coffee. I recently discovered I'm not a huge plain Latte fan, so I opted on a themed drink called the Poe, espresso, dark chocolate, and raspberry drizzle. It was absolutely delicious - a flavorful combination that was well blended and not too sweet. The lady helping me was really great in giving me options on hot v. iced. A really great experience especially when I admit how groggy I am in the mornings . read more

Coffee is amazing! Staff is very friendly and always fast service. Great little drive thru.

These ladies are phenomenal! I had a wackadoodle coffee jones this morning, and they actually coached me into identifying a modified version of the thing on the menu that best reflected what I wanted in my cup. They even kindly wrote my name down so that people would know how to make my weird-ass order the next time I come through. Amazing customer service and a solid delicious warm yummy cup of coffee. Will definitely be back. read more

Yes! We need more stand Alones. I have been waiting for years to see one of these in my hometown and it's finally here. Owner is a really awesome guy so stop by and get a drink and be happy read more

The Drowsy Poet - Yes finally! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

This was my first visit to any of the drowsy poet locations and my first experience was really great. The little drive-through was quick and convenient and pretty easy to navigate and the gentleman working was extremely nice and friendly and helped me with my choice. I had the special of the Bees Knees which tastes really amazing. If I lived closer I would definitely visit more due to the great service and delicious beverage. read more

This coffee is a party in your mouth every time!!! The owner is so friendly my wife and I could have talked to him for hours!! Great place! Go visit if you haven't had or need your coffee today!!! read more

My family and I were forced to flee Tampa due to hurricane Irma. My parents are elderly and my brother and I thought it would be best to get them out of there. We left at 10.pm and could not find any available rooms from Gainesville to Tallahassee. That said, we ended up getting a few hours of sleep at a rest stop about an hour from Pensacola. The next day We decided to try and go to Biloxy to get a room and stopped for coffee at the Drowsy Poet in Pensacola before another 3 hours of driving. The coffee, the latte and the chai latte we ordered were all outstanding, but it paled in comparison to the compassion we would stumble on to at a time when we needed a helping hand. After talking to the person at the front counter and exchanging our stories. A gentleman named Bill told us he was the owner and within moments he graciously offered us a much needed random act of kindness by offering a fully furnished 3 bedroom house he had bought for his parents who currently live in Pittsburg. We couldn't believe how easy Bill Made it for us to accept his offer. His daughter quickly showed us the house and Bill dropped by to make sure we had everything we needed. He didn't know anything about us, he just knew we really needed help because of our parents and he didn't hesitate to solve our current problem. My family and I are so grateful to be able to rest in a safe place and monitor Irma . This is something we will never forget .... ever. Thank you for great coffee and the amazing display of love by you and your family. It is greatly appreciated more than you know :) i read more

Great tasting coffee, fast service, all in a convenient spot just off I-110. If you don't know about the Drowsy Poet's other location you might not think the coffee here would be as good as is it. To top it off all the baristas have been quite nice and greeted with a smile and that can't hurt! read more

It is right next to PCA. Stopped in for coffee and it was really good and fresh. I would definitely recommend.

This was fast and convenient. The person working the drive thru was friendly and committed on the music I was playing. I will definitely return. read more

Fast and friendly, they use real espresso. Never had a bad experience! Try the flat white-better than Starbucks for sure.

Passing through getting gas in desperate need of coffee and this place saved the day the coffee is absolutely amazing!

I love this place. Great coffee and 1st class service. Lattes are delivery hot and perfectly brewed.

YUM! And I love the kid drinks for my little one! Too cute! Also, you guys should sell shirts!

I absolutely love this place! The coffee is fantastic, and the owners and staff are always so friendly. They do different deals almost everyday, that you can take part in if you follow them on facebook. I stop here at least twice a week, and I have never had a bad experience. read more

A coffee drive-thru kiosk. I love these establishments. I saw these all over the place in Alaska when I visited years ago, and I remember wishing there were coffee drive-thru kiosks like these in Pensacola. Well, here is one, right next to a Raceway off of Airport Blvd. Staff is cheerful and friendly, and that is commendable considering they have to sit in what is practically a box in a parking lot. Coffee is just as good as at the Drowsy Coffee Shop on Brent Lane. Do they carry every single item that is carried on Brent Lane. Probably not, but this is a drive-thru kiosk. Convenience is key. Fill up on gas and caffeine at one convenient location. read more

Potent brew. Love it. Friendly Barristas and coffee is roasted right there. Think this will probably be the annual coffee spot for our Pensacola trips from now on. read more

I love this place, every time I go I am never disappointed. These people truly care about their customers and the quality of their products. If you are in the mood for a coffee with a twist I definitely recommend the Poe because you get the nice dark chocolate flavor with a hint of the raspberry which adds to the prominent coffee taste. It seems like it is too sweet but it actually just wakes up all the senses. If you find yourself in this area, you should try this little place and you will be greeted with a friendly welcome and a delicious treat. read more

Best local coffee in town! I like supporting local businesses and am happy to say the locations on Airport and the newest at New Warrington and Navy are a great place to refresh. The owners are friendly and personable, and the coffee is great! read more

Coffee was average - not a lot of flavor for a private company. I got a latte and it was very watered down...over done with flavoring. Maybe ask for a double shot of expresso if you want to taste the coffee flavor. read more
