It's a cute place near the coast. They have pictures of indigenous people harvesting crops - so cool! They support the local farms too. There's limited seating inside - about 10 seats. Only 2 plugs so you can't really do work but it seems pretty quiet. If you get the high top table, there are 4 seats and you can do work but I suggest maybe bringing a power strip. *HINT for business owner to add power strips to the outlets or maybe extension cords* The staff is super friendly and unique! You can order food from here too, but in case you don't want to eat there are food truck across and restaurants all around. The coffee is great I had the 16oz iced Americano and the coffee they use is so robust. If you need sweetness, they have organic granulated sugars, liquid blue agave, and honey. read more

Perfectly good coffee, but the nice teenage staff were hilariously clueless about coffee. The tea was too strong, the cream was curdled, but the folks who were getting big flavored drinks seemed happy. read more

People who don't like this coffee must be the super sugary types who think Starbucks is amazing. Don't expect that stuff here. It is a proper coffee roaster. The variety of beans is very impressive. I took a bag back to our place and paired it with a pastry from Crust. read more

Their coffee was the best. They had different pastries to select from also. The help was very informative and helpful. I'll be back.

Salted Carmel cold brew and iced mocha were some of the best I've had! Service wasn't super friendly but it was extremely busy and seemed a bit overwhelmed. I will definitely be back though! read more

Yummy yummy coffee, line was worth the wait Got the vanilla chai latte with soy & a few others read more

It's got coffee so that's good...but this is a classic case of a coffee shop relying on a cool name, cool aesthetics, and some local art instead of putting the attention on okay well..the coffee. It's totally just OKAY. And I would say definitely overrated. But if you wanna go here's what you need to know: They are taking social distancing quite seriously and actually doing an exceptional job with it. Because of this you should anticipate to wait anywhere from 12-15 minutes if you're there during the morning hours. The menu is big and it includes breakfast items like duh avocado toast (among other overrated foods). The paper straws they use dissolve reeeeeally quickly so this is definitely a place to considering bringing your collapsible reusable straw (it's 2020 don't play like you don't have one yet). We tried cold brew and an iced chai. The chai concentrate was pretty spicy (in a good way). I don't know this was just such an underwhelming experience, considering how many fabulous businesses I got to experience in Water Color. read more

Un fortunately cannot rate zero Minus one. Cashier couldn't consider slight change in order Minus one cashier sneered when i reduced tip from 15 to 12 % Minus one barrister mixed a very weak black tea. When asked told me it was normal Minus one tea was a scented tea. Minus one having to write a negative review on a beautiful day Im off to a nearby competitor. YMMV read more

Delicious coffee and very family friendly. This became a morning staple on our trip! The cinnamon roll was our favorite treat to grab too!

Great little coffeeshop at seaside! Always end up here at some point- the dirty chai is amazing. Quaint shop. Great for chatting with friends. Studying could be good if one goes in the separate room. Overall, great vibe, great drinks read more

Type of Food: Artisan coffee and small bites Address: 25 Central Square, B1, Seaside, FL 32459 Phone Number: +1 850-213-1965 Hours: 6:30am-7pm Phone Number: 850-213-1965 Hours: 6:30am-7pm Reservation or Walk-in? Walk-in Parking: Seaside Town Square (very limited) This is the only coffee shop we went to! I think it might actually be the only artisan coffee shop around there too. It did not disappoint, though. My husband is a coffee snob, and he did not mind going here twice a day. There are two locations. You can find info for the second Amavida Coffee & Tea below.

Great coffee and really good pastries. Always a must stop when we are visiting Rosemary!

I like this location and I LOVE that they are open later because the need for caffeine never stops. I wish they did provide a smaller cup option for ice espresso drinks. Just ask for less water or milk in drinks for a good experience. read more

I popped into Amavida, desperate for some tea and based on positive recommendations. I ordered an iced chai tea latte with soy milk, and it was one of the best chai teas I've had in a long time (this is saying something since I have a lot of Tibetan and Indian friends!!). The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and I was surprised at how quickly I received my drink. While I didn't eat there, I did have a bit of food porn ogling of their food case... the sandwiches and baked good items really looked delicious. I'll definitely be back next time I come back this way, which I am hoping will be very soon! Amavida definitely has won my tea business. read more

Coffee and customer service was great, reasonably priced for a good quantity. You most likely won't find a better bang for your buck in Seaside. Cheddar cheese biscuit was amazing. read more

I tried a different coffee shop every day on vacation from Santa Rosa up to Aly Beach, and Amavida had the best coffee of anyone. Really , really good. And loved the whole vibe of the place. I'm glad I got there early...I can imagine that it gets busy since it is Seaside. read more

This coffee shop is right in the heart of Seaside in the plaza. It's gorgeous inside with local artwork and pretty spacious. All of the employees wore masks and they had plexiglass up at the counter. I had the iced lavender tea. It was delicious! My friend bought an oat bar. I had a bite and it was not too sweet and perfectly baked! I was really surprised @ how excellent this coffee shop was in the middle of a pretty touristy area! Plus, they are one of the few places along the Florida panhandle we've found on our trip that are taking COVID precautions. Highly recommend. read more

Probably one of the best lattes I've ever had. It was busy so I wouldn't plan to go and stuck around, but worth the crazy!

loved this coffee shop!! the menu looked great but I was too late for food :(( my cold brew was amazing and they were super quick! They also had the SOFTEST tshirts!! read more

Favorite breakfast in seaside if you are gluten intolerant don't miss the GF Carrot muffin :)

A seaside tradition. Always have a great experience here every time we come. Prices are in line with the rest of seaside (high), but the drinks and pasties are always great. Great cold brew too. It can get busy and slow at times... but we love this place. read more

Donuts were more like croissants than traditional donuts but still good. Iced toasted caramel latte was great but pricy ($8.50!) although that's fairly typical for the area. Barista was super kind! We enjoyed the shaded outdoor seating. read more

Wow, I'm not sure why this place is only 3.5 stars on Yelp. Either people in Seaside just aren't Yelpers or they just don't really know what's in front of them. I gave this beachside coffee shop 5-stars for the following reasons: a) TASTE. The white chocolate mocha was just like Seaside--a little slice of heaven. Soooo good! b) QUALITY. The coffee is 100% organic and fair trade. Why do I care if it's organic or not? Well, coffee is one of the most chemically induced products in the world. Would I want to be drinking chemicals dressed as a latte? No, and I'm sure you wouldn't like that either. So, a "high five" to Amavida for setting themselves apart from the average coffee shops. c) SERVICE. Excellent customer service by the staff/barista. I bought a medium iced latte and went on my way to cruise around the block but immediately dropped the drink by accident. I went back right away to buy another serving (since the latte was THAT good). I was getting ready to pay, however, the barista offered it as complimentary after hearing that I dropped it accidentally. I wasn't looking for a freebie but what a great move that was because now they have found a loyal customer in me and although I will not be able to go there everyday (I'm from San Diego after all), I will definitely be buying my coffee from them online. Besides coffee and teas, they also serve food with a Latin flair. Love this place! read more

This place is absolutely horrible. A group of us are at this place and we all ordered something different to try a variety but nothing tastes good. They even messed up our orders and we had to go back to the counter a few times. This is probably the closest thing I've tasted to liquified sh*t in a cup as I can imagine. They should change their name to "ASS-presso Coffee and Tea". I'm now looking for gum to get the taste out of my mouth. read more

Good coffee, friendly staff and the wait wasn't bad at all. I had an Americano & it was quite good. Lots of seating outside and in the main pavilion so I was able to relax and enjoy my drink this morning. read more

My friend and I wanted some good coffee so we decided to go to Amavida. Usually we get two iced coffees and they come out in five minutes. Today was different. We walked in and the line was not long at all it took about two minutes to walk up to order. We ordered one iced coffee and usually it will ask you if you want your receipt then the name for the order. Today we did not even get asked if we wanted a receipt and the cashier did not give us the name for our order. We sat down to wait for our coffee and it took about 15 minutes until one of us went up and asked. She said it would be ready soon. About 6-10 minutes later the coffee comes out and the lady claims someone took our coffee. read more

The espresso was pretty weak and the vibe of the place didn't make up for it. I'd head down to Alys Beach instead.

Really bad coffee. Tasted like it was super watered down. Could barely make out any hint of espresso. Very confused by how this business has such good ratings and reviews. read more

Coffee was decent, however the donut food truck ran out of all donuts before 10:30 am on a weekend day! A bit of a disappointment.

I enjoyed a really nice ice coffee and scone here this morning. The coffee had a great flavor and the scone was moist. Overall, it was a really cute stop for a quick bite. My only complaint would be their lack of seating inside and outside of their establishment. However, you're so close to the Seaside amphitheater that there is plenty of places to relax elsewhere. I'm sure we will be returning here several other mornings of our vacation! read more

when we first showed up there was a very long line that tool forever, before we got to the register i could tell that the workers were not working to there best availability, they were moving slow and not putting much effort into there job. When i ordered the lady working the cash register was not friendly and left me waiting like ten times. After we ordered about 3 people behind us got our stuff before hand. & i do mot recommend the smoothies unless you want an icy not impressed, this place needs to work on the way they deal with costumers. read more

After doing a general browse for coffee shops in the area I am extremely satisfied with Amavida Coffee Roasters, down in Seaside! The staff was super friendly and I was very pleased with my cold brew! My girlfriend ordered a chai tea latte and was also pleased with how it turned out. The best part of the whole experience was finding out Amavida is fighting against mass incarceration and has partnered with Equal Justice Initiative (EJI). I urge everyone to do their research for more places like Amavida, who work towards combatting serious issues that plague our society! For me, this was a solid selling point after stepping foot inside! Overall, I have been to several coffee shops within the area during my time down here and Amavida tops all of them, from a product standpoint towards their approach with customers, to finally their commitment to take a stand on such a pivotal societal issue. I could not be more satisfied with my experience, I will certainly be back! read more

Had an iced vanilla hazelnut latte with almond milk. It tasted more like an iced coffee with flavoring. Just stopped there once on vacation. Would have to try more things to get a full opinion. Cute place and very friendly staff. Across the street from all the food trucks that sit in downtown if you're also craving food. read more

Stopped in to get my coffee fix and had a great time. Small shop but quality is fantastic. Got an Alpha(steampunk) cup of their reserve coffee. The barista explained the alpha process and the Ethiopian reserve bean to me very well. Great experience. Not a lot of room to sit and chill inside but this is seaside so grab a cup of coffee and go outside to enjoy the weather. Observations: they have a large assortment of teas and have nitro cold brew coffee on tap which are both fantastic. read more

Covid-safe with masks. They request no more than 10 in the store at one time, though that wasn't enforced. Somewhat high-priced for fair-tasting coffee and a dirty chai. Chai tasted funny, like grass. Great location in Seaside though. read more

EXCELLENCE!!! That is the word to describe my amazing experience at Amavida during vacation. What a surprise find. The coffee, Peruvian Light Roast, was an amazing morning refresh. We ordered breakfast reluctantly expecting to get the typical bland cardboard tasting food you get at Panera and Starbucks. When I opened my carry out box at the picnic table I was very impressed with the attention to details. The avocado toast was fresh and generously portioned. The sesame and caraway seed sprinkle with the pickled onions was a really nice and beautiful touch. My goodness, the BREAD!!! The wonderfully toasted bread under both the almond butter banana and avocado toast was high quality and crunchy and soft. The best surprise for a person who likes a little heat was the ramekin of crushed red pepper for avocado and amber honey for the almond butter. Everyone was friendly and we felt safe during such an uncertain time. My sole suggestion would be to clean the exterior dusty door frame on top of the door on a regular basis and windows. I know with the salt and sand that is a constant struggle. read more
