I definitely agree with other reviewers about the quality of the coffee and the price. The baristas know what they're doing and $2.50 for a good cappuccino? Seems like a steal to me! I've found the service a bit maddening though, which is why it's only a three star review. I really like getting my coffee in ceramic cups if I'm staying to work and most coffee shops I've been to will do just that if you ask or tell them it's for here... not Wyatt's. It doesn't seem to matter if I spell it out, I get my coffee in a to go cup. The staff is nice-ish but seem a bit condescending. I haven't given up yet, and will update my review if I figure out what the magic words are since the coffee itself is quite delicious (their pastries, however, are atrocious, though I say this as someone who bakes for a living and is very particular). I would say the other downside is the size, it can be tricky to get a table if you want to work, but that's fairly standard with small cafes. I have found the vibe a bit arrogant-preppy, now if only Cym's ramshackle interior and cheery staff and Wyatt's superior coffee could spawn a lovechild, I'd be quite content. Oh, and better pastries... Though I guess as a silver lining, at least I'm not tempted to buy them! read more

Whenever we visit Gainesville, this is our "go to" coffee shop! We love the atmosphere and they have the best cold brew ever, excellent staff and don't get me started on the baked goods. If you have a chance to try the Big B.E.C. Sammy DO IT! You won't be disappointed. read more

Great coffee and pastries. The blueberry muffin is phenomenal! Great atmosphere and service. Highly recommended

Very knowledgeable and friendly (NOT rude or snobby like some other coffee establishment employees in Gainesville) staff. Unique selection process; you pick a coffee bean grower/producer, and choose from the different options based off descriptions of the bean aroma and body. The employees are very helpful if you're looking for something specific. I went in during exam weeks and asked for their strongest brew, and they made a single cup of the strongest coffee I've ever had. It was amazing. I tend to get the nitro cold brew latte. Which is like liquid crack. But if you go in later in the day there's a chance they will have run out. So GO EARLY and go often!!! read more

Downtown's awesome corner coffee shoppe with DELICIOUS homemade muffins & pastries...chocolate peanut butter banana gallete ? Spelling ....OMG TO DIE 4 !! Tasty cappuccino with oat milk...no problem...yum. read more

Went in on a Saturday morning around 9am, there were a couple of people there but wasn't too busy. After waiting 15 mins for our coffee's I asked the barista to check on our order, was informed that they had forgotten to put it in. We ordered 2 double shot latte's which were lukewarm and tasted burnt and bitter. It is very conveniently located in the heart of downtown, but I would not recommend going there. read more

This place is pretty solid. We've been a few times and tried a few different versions of your standard fare, cappuccinos, lattes, etc, and our drinks were great every time. It's a really cute space we like to go to after a date night downtown. read more

Stopped by on the way back to North Carolina as we are always looking for unique coffee shops and Wyatt's did not disappoint!!!! Along side the exceptional customer service, I am drinking the best latte I've had in a long time! Ordered the Smoked Mexican Mocha per the baristas recommendation and wow is it good!! Perhaps most impressive is that he took the time to craft it exactly as I ordered and it's spot on. Great find!! read more

best coffee in gainesville. fuxk opus, wyatt's nitro cold brew is perfect and their staff is always amazing.

Although I still love coming to Wyatt's coffee shop I've been saddened by the recent changes that they've made. Across the board all the drinks have gone up 50cents-$1 and they've shortened hours from 6am-midnight to 7am-10pm. While this shop is still very good and one of the best shops in Gainesville, it's no longer the top coffee shop that it used to be. In all honesty the prices that they were charging before and the hours that they kept were probably cutting significantly into their profits; it's just sad that this place is no longer the incredibly affordable and undisputed king coffee shop for those who need to be productive throughout the day. Pricing is still competitive but I probably won't be coming back is often given how popular it's become and unbelievably crowded and as a result dirty at times. I'm happy it's getting so much local business these days, but it's bittersweet when the quiet oasis that used to be Wyatt's has really become a crowded beach that's no longer the paradise it once was. read more

Wyatt's Coffee - Cold brew getting me through the day - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

See all

The coffee is good, the cappuccino didn't have a burnt bitter flavor. The smoked Mexican mocha was fantastic. I enjoyed every sip of it. The staff was very kind and friendly, good atmosphere, although it gets busy. The music was a little loud for my taste. I wouldn't study for long hours here, but it'd be nice to park it for an hour or so or to bring a few friends to sit and chat. WIFI also realllyyyy good. Overall, 4.5/5 for their yummy coffee and good vibes. I still have to try their cold brew which I've heard is great! read more

I stopped by with a friend and we both ordered hot lattes. Both drinks were lukewarm, almost cool when we received them. The taste was just okay. After we were finished, I brought our cups to the counter, not knowing there was a dish bin across from the counter. One of the baristas rudely let me know that the dishes go in that bin and not on the counter. I wasn't aware of that since it was my first time. So, overall, not impressed with the coffee or the customer service. read more

A little pricey but great vibe and really nice people. Always order the 16 oz it's much more worth it read more

Wyatt's Coffee - Vibe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

This place focuses on the uniqueness of individual coffees from Florida roasters. The coffee is always fresh and always hot because its made to order here. If you are feeling like something other than coffee they also have a nice tea selection as well as an extensive chocolate selection. Staff has always been great and friendly and am always looking forward to my next visit. Cheers! read more

Wyatt's is the coffee shop Gainesville deserves. Tons of natural light welcome you into this study haven meets curl-up-with-a-good-book-and-a-coffee nook. The drinks are made with care & are damn good. It's got a good amount of tables, chairs, and plugs, but it's normally going to be pretty swamped with undergrads working on homework or catching up, so plan early if you'd like to go & camp out to be productive. The nitro cold brew is unreal. As someone who regularly knocks back espresso & a cup of coffee, I was totally willing to go all in on this, and it delivered. The smoothness was such a unique palette teaser. It's not like anything you've tasted before. I was also thankful that it didn't leave me with the coffee jitters (but, like I said, I'm a coffee regular). The honey latte is also amazing!! Not overly sweet but just a hint of the honey to balance out the coffee. Though I'm no longer a student, Wyatt's is a great spot to get my own work done and enjoy downtown gainesville. FYI, They have "names of the day", meaning if you're the lucky name, you're getting a free coffee. Crossing my fingers for the day "ERICA" gets called... read more

This place is quickly becoming one of my favorite coffee spots. The atmosphere is small but clean and bright. The baristas are friendly and the coffee quality is exceptional. Their lattes are always made very well. Although they have limited latte flavors, the coffee tastes so good and I don't miss my usual flavors. They also have great pastries and muffins from the Mill, which I love. read more

Good coffee and nice place. But it's so cold when it's cold outside ‍not the best place to have cozy coffee in the winter...

Sadly not impressed. Extremely bitter espresso with a strong, burnt flavor. Soy latte was handed to me Lukewarm, and the espresso sat on the bottom with milk on top. So at first I wonder if there was any espresso at all. But then it hit in one gulp and overtook everything. Barista barely made eye contact and took a long time despite nobody being in front of us. My husband tipped her a good 20% (being a barista himself he doesn't mess around with tipping people), and she not only didn't seem to care but acted ambivalent to having a job. Not a good vibe. His almond milk cappuccino was similar, more a latte with no foam and 1/3 of the cappuccino cup empty. It's always disheartening to find coffee shops that that look great but have no pride in their actual product (or maybe their barista training???). read more

This little coffee shop can be found in an ideal location in downtown Gainesville. The decor is modern and cool, and you'll find a lot of the two tops occupied by studying students and chatty couples. The menu is simple and includes your typical coffee house faire. I tend to order the latte which is served in big round mug. The coffee is rich and nutty which I really like and the baristas seem to take their time making it. They also serve some bagels and pastries along with a really nice lemonade which I'm partial to on an extra warm day. I would recommend stopping in and giving this place a try. read more

The best coffee in Gainesville if you have 15 minutes to wait. Went 3 times and enjoyed everything I ordered, but couldn't believe the slowness of service. It wasn't that the staff was slow (they are amazing, friendly, and good coffee takes time), but it was obvious they were understaffed for the many, many people that were coming in. Clearly this place is in a prime location and is going to get slammed because it offers a superior product (GREAT coffee), but the Owners need to wise up and recognize that fast service is a necessity for coffee drinkers - and might require more people. read more

This is my new favorite local coffee spot in Gainesville. I've been going there regularly for a couple months now and my drinks have always been consistent and made exactly the way I like. They also have a great punch card system if you're into that. I know I fill mine up like once a week. Also if you happen to have Tessa or Maddie Grace (sp?) making your coffee you're in luck because they're the bomb.com (not sure if people still say that, but you get my point). The decor is super clean cut and modern, the branding is up to par with larger corporate coffee companies, and it's all Florida coffee which I never knew I'd like so much since I'm such a Colombian snob. Anyway, if you haven't been definitely go give them a shot (pun intended) and see for yourself. read more

I ordered a vanilla latte with light sweetener, and it was very good. This place has a nice atmosphere and a friendly staff. I would definitely recommend giving them a try. read more

High quality coffee! So many different options. I appreciate that they allowed us to sample the coffee blends they were offering that day. Great customer service, and cool environment/ ambiance. Best coffee shop in Gainesville. read more

This is the best place in town!!! I highly recommend. I had the chocolate cappuccino and a blueberry scon. sooo goood :))

The overall vibe was very nice; however, the coffee is nothing out of this world that it is worth $5 for a 16 oz. Also, the bagel was a serious disappointment to bagel connoisseurs out there. If your looking for amazing decent priced coffee and amazing bagels and breakfast sandwiches that don't dent the wallet so much go visit Bay Island Coffee. I decided to try Wyatt's so that I could see if anything would match up to Bay Island Coffee and nothing ever really can. read more

Lol snooty & avg coffee way over priced- & customer service is extinct- small interior, cramped feel too.

Such a great place to study at! There's plenty of room if you want to do work by yourself or with some friends. The coffee is also great. Unfortunately, they don't make cold drinks, unless it's cold brew, so you're limited on those scorching days when all you want is an iced coffee. I had a latte with almond milk and it was just beautifully done, I didn't need to add anything to it! Their pastries also looked amazing. Definitely going to go back and try the chocolate muffin! read more

One of my favorite coffee shops in Gainesville. The staff is always so positive and kind when I come in to study. Delicious coffee and such a great place to meet up with friends at. The inside of the store is decorated so wonderfully and I recommend this place to all of my friends. 10/10. read more

very nice place! it's very nice inside but sadly there is no seating inside because of covid at the moment. but! the coffee was really nice and came out fast :) from what it looks like they seemed to have a limited menu (only drinks) but it was really really nice, i'm definitely going again!! read more

Good coffee selection and knowledge brewing. The place is small and seating is tight. Parking is also a little tricky but I enjoyed my visit and would come here a again. They also have a nice tea selection. read more

Starbucks was closed and I decided to try this little jem. Being a lover of coffee, I enjoy finding new spots to go to. The coffee was great, and the baristas were super friendly. Will definitely stop in again. read more

Good coffee, nice employees, yummy snacks and chill environment. Seating is really limited which is the only down side

Not much on food so don't go hungry - in fact skip it all together. Ordered coffee that was weak weak weak - ugh. Not the way to start a busy day. The service was friendly. read more

The place is super cute, the employees where very, very nice. I'm giving Wyatt's 2 stars because of those two reasons. The coffee... Asshole.. Batch brew??? More like snatch brew! No but really my black coffee tasted like it was 3 days old and so sour.. Sorry, I will not be returning. read more

Love the atmosphere at this little corner coffee shop. Lots of windows to bring in natural light. A mix between tables for working and comfy chairs for chatting with friends. There is a good list of espresso and coffee items on the menu, without getting too wild and crazy. The baristas were all very friendly and knew what they were doing. It was very crowded and they did not appear stressed by the high volume of people (definite plus!). They have a small selection of pastries that don't appear to be too homemade, but I think their main focus is definitely on the coffee. I had a cold brew coffee which was very refreshing on a hot day! read more

Relocated to downtown Gainesville. I came for the grand opening and was enjoyed the great coffee and my muffin was fantastic! Really enjoyed my visit and will come again! read more

so glad they opened up in a better location so that more people can be exposed to the amazing coffee that Wyatt's has to offer. Just what you'd expect from a quality coffee shop- vibrant atmosphere that is ideal for sitting down and catching up with friends or studying. The coffee itself is great. Bold, aromatic and reasonably priced, it's sure to make the customer leave satisfied. Wyatt's coffee is yet another establishment that makes the downtown scene of Gainesville a hip and ever popular go-to for weekdays and weekends. read more

The interior is really nice, feels comfy and seems like a nice place to study. They don't offer iced espresso drinks, unfortunately, but the nitro iced coffee definitely made up for that. I've had their cold brew before moving locations, and it was one of the best cold brews I had. Their prices seem fair, especially for the quality of the coffee they serve. read more

Great, independent coffee shop! Delicious coffee, in a relaxing, comfortable, bright space. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the service is a bit slow and on a busy Sunday morning, the 2 employees were solely focused on fulfilling online orders instead of serving live customers standing in front of them. read more

My favorite coffee in Gainesville. Staffs are friendly, environment is good. Very good place to spend your afternoon.
