Lotsa tables without being crowded at all. Outlets available all around the room. Cons: Essentially an advertisement for the church surrounding it. At 8 the space is full of teens. At 9 there are toddlers running around while their mothers gather to chat. Very loud. At least 5 tv screens cycling between essentially 4 images, one variant being about coffee. One for grief services. One for preschool. One for divorce services. They do not offer decaf espresso. I'd say that if you can look past the running screaming under-supervised children and the constant advertisements for rather depressing topics (other than coffee and preschool) and churchy vibes it's a good place where you know you'll get a seat and an outlet. I personally won't be returning.

Cute vibes, unique drinks, and perfect for a little treat-yourself moment

The flavor of the coffee, the crema of the espresso shots, and the perfect foam of the milk--I can never complain about this place. I don't add sugar or syrup so I can taste the coffee, and it's that good!! They create beautiful latte art, and I always enjoy watching it. The food is also incredibly good, and you can't go wrong with anything. Their baked goodies are made fresh daily, and everything I've tried has been delicious. If you want to have lunch, the club wrap is so good--you must try it. The staff is always friendly and the owners are lovely people.

Mechanism Coffee Roasters - after thoughts:…read more Continuing my "JAX COFFEE CRAWL 2025" -- Stop 10 of 10! FINAL STOP -- made it!!! Visited on a bustling Saturday morning and easily found parking. The shop is spacious with high ceilings, offering a comfortable mix of seating: tables for solo study or group meetups, barstools along the wall, and cozy couches for those just looking to relax and reflect. Having visited before, I'm happy to share they've remained consistent -- clean, inviting, and always backed by friendly, attentive service. Selection: Apple Cinnamon Chai Dirty (12oz, Hot with Oat Milk) -- a beautifully balanced drink where warm cinnamon and crisp apple flavors mingle with spiced chai and a smooth espresso shot. The oat milk rounds it all out for a cozy, fall-worthy cup. Though their limited store hours may be a small drawback, it's quickly overshadowed by their strong focus on quality -- in both their coffee and food offerings -- and their genuine connection with the community. A solid staple in the JAX coffee scene. MUST-TRY & REPEAT!!! .5 of 5 (4.5 of 5)

They have cool flavored salts for sale (I purchased the Vampire Killer) and other interesting items. I ordered the iced Doughfee coffee and it's NO JOKE!

Their donuts are brioche style and so so so fluffy! My favorite donut here is the creme brulee! It's filled with that delicious cream and the caramelized sugar on top makes it crazy good! The owner is super nice, kind, and friendly! He always goes above and beyond to make sure we get top notch service and high quality donuts! The shop is also super clean and kid friendly! Plenty of seating and also an area for kids to play. They occasionally do seasonal flavors like ube, pandan, coconut, sesame, etc. I've also tried their coffees and lattes and they're all delicious, no complaints! But their savory doughninis though! Oh my gosh! The sandwiches are exquisite! My favorite is the fire pesto (turkey, cheese, egg, pesto, and chili oil on top). I cannot tell you how good this sandwich is! Every bite, I always savor, because it's one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. Their fries are also fire! Perfectly fried, crispy and golden, with some special seasoning on top! Prices are really reasonable for what you get and the quality cannot be matched! That's why I'm a regular! They do sell out sometimes so make sure you come early or call ahead! Definitely check out this donut shop, you won't be disappointed!

There are many flavor varieties to choose from and makes it difficult to decide what to get. I tried the Dulce de Leche and loved it so much!

The cafe also serves savory pastries, sandwiches, coffee, tea and refreshers. I've visited twice and tried the Blueberry Muffin Latte hot & iced. I prefer the hot over the iced because it had more of the blueberry flavor. This place is definitely one of my pit stops whenever I'm in the area!

It's the kind of coffee shop where you can grab a great cup of coffee, sit down for a bit, and actually enjoy the atmosphere. The space feels modern but relaxed, making it a nice spot whether you're meeting a friend, catching up on some work, or just taking a break from the day. The coffee here is excellent. You can tell they take their beans and roasting seriously. The espresso drinks are smooth, rich, and full of flavor without being overly bitter. They also have a nice selection of specialty drinks if you're in the mood to try something a little different. They offer a good variety of breakfast items and pastries as well, which pair perfectly with the coffee. Everything tastes fresh and well prepared--simple but done right. Another thing I appreciated was the friendly service. The staff is welcoming and efficient, and the overall energy of the place feels very positive. It's also convenient that they have a drive-thru if you're in a hurry. All in all, Brass Tacks Coffee is one of those local spots that keeps people coming back. Great coffee, good food, and a relaxed environment make it an easy recommendation if you're in the Jacksonville Southside area.
