Yum and they carry Noli kumbucha. I'd give it a 5 but I dig black bear coffee best in Greytom beach.(sorry). I also enjoy the coffee inside the supermarket next door called "modico" read more

Very good coffee. I had a white chocolate mocha and my husband had his regular quad shot mocha. The people working seemed very nice and friendly. They were curious where we were from. Very informative about the area. The area....a variety cute little shops outside. A row of food trucks to satisfy your cravings. It was a very nice little area in Seaside Florida. I only wished it hadn't been raining most of the time we were there. I would loved to have walked around. read more

Coffee: some of the best I've ever had. They won some kind of Roaster of the Year award, and it shows. Latin Food: top-notch. We got a couple of things among us - 2 "taquitos" (they're really tacos), an Arepa, and a Torta. They're all excellent, and all $9.95. Pro-tip is, the torta is the most food for the money. But either way, it is hands-down the best food in Seaside. read more

The barista with the green hair has got to go. She had an attitude, rolled her eyes while giving me my drinks, and wouldn't even look at me directly. Great shot of espresso, but geez... my experience does not make me want to return. read more

Stopped here while we were visiting the little town as the entire family needed an afternoon pick-me-up. We tried quite a few of their coffees- from cold brew, to vanilla latte, to drip, and even an iced americano. All in all, it was good coffee but not great. Their was not extra Jazz for me and nothing really stood out. I would stop by again when I am in need of some caffeine, but I would not go out of my way. The name is pretty sweet though as it means love life in Spanish. If only they loved coffee that much, Amacafé. read more

Great coffee but quite pricey. I also didn't love the customer service. But I know Seaside is a different world than I'm used to.

Stopped in this little shop for tea. They had a nice selection. I decided on coconut oolong tea. The fragrant was delicious. The wait was not long and the decor was nice with nice art hung on the wall. I asked the barista where they get their oolong tea. Her response was... I believe oolong tea comes from china or Taiwan. ??? Really?? I said, yes. I understand that. Who makes this tea. She told me the brand. The 3 baristas at the shop could not stop looking at me and were not pleasant at all. I smiled and tried to be friendly but felt the stares were due to the fact I was maybe the one Asian there amongst the thousands of white people there. I certainly did not feel welcome here nor will I come back. The tea was nice but the service was not. read more

Hmmm. Long line. Slow service. Coffee was sour like Starbucks. Ordered a double espresso macchiato and got a single shot which tasted sour like the water pressure or shot was not properly drawn. My GF ordered a coffee w vanilla and cream. Neither the vanilla or the cream made it to her coffee. We left after a $13 tab. Never go back read more

This is by far the best Coffeeshop in town. It's a B corporation and follows ethical business practices in addition to creating a friendly vibe & great coffee! Only downside of this location was the fact that there's a tshirt store sharing the space in what I assume is a way to bring the rent down. I'm guessing it's probably hard for a business like Amavida to stay afloat in town while the rents must be rising astronomically. Wish them the best of luck for the future! I'll be back if I'm ever in the area :) read more

I guess it's 4 stars because there are so many great cafes out there and the standard is high for me. The chai tea latte has great flavor. The iced mocha was good. About 8 seats inside, more outside. A fair amount of merch inside. Most impressive is their chocolate bar selection - Dick Taylor and Askinosie, 2 of the best in the US. Music seemed like a 60s and 70s classic rock- too old for most customers. read more

While on vacation in Seaside, we made a morning habit of getting our bikes, riding to the downtown area and stopping at Amavida for a beverage and breakfast. Featuring organic-earth friendly- chakra calming - oneness inducing coffee (at least that is what I gathered from reading various literature) and teas for your breakfast. Ok, for me, I like a good smooth cup of joe, the regular stuff that they serve as part of the daily morning service. While their special blends looked great, I was very happy with my standard fare. For me the highlight was the breakfast options. Scones (wife loved the savory ones), sandwiches and pastries. All very tasty and well made. The shop is small, so be prepared for a line. Still, get your stuff, then grab a table and sit out front and watch the world go by. Also, don't forget to breathe - it is, after all, Seaside. Enjoy. read more

I worked in Seaside last summer, and Amavida quickly became a go-to place when I was looking for a caffeine fix or a light lunch. The coffee is great, and the chai tea became a part of my daily routine. Most of the food is decent, but the chicken salad sandwich is amazing; I could probably live off those (and I think there was a week where I did.) The people who work there are great, and they often have live music performing outside. It's the best place in Seaside to go to for a pick-me-up. read more

This is the coffee shop on the central "square" in Seaside. I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but it was chilly and threatening rain, so when a friend wanted herbal tea, I agreed to join her. They've got a pretty long list of teas. I chose the tumeric ginger herbal tea thinking it would be zesty and full of anti-inflammatories needed post race. Sure, it's hard to mess up stocking tea and heating water, but I was impressed with the double cups and how they put the edge of the tea bag in between them to hold it in place for the steeping. That and when I researched the Rishi tea that they were selling on the shelves, I came to find out that it's an iced tea and one bag is designed to make 1 quart. So I was getting super concentrated tea, and I loved it. The coffee smelled good, too. read more

Incredibly rude service and wrong order that was placed. I really like the coffee here and have been to this place every time we are in town and have never been treated with such disrespect. read more

A couple years ago we went here and had terrible espresso. .. . .tasted fermented, of all things. BUT today we went back and had a totally different experience. My wife got the small sized latte with an extra shot, but little did we know that it normally comes with 2 shots, so hers was a triple. It was excellent, excellent. I got just an espresso with a dab of soy. It too was fabulous. I'd say the best or second-best espresso I've ever had. They do make their espresso by hand - not in a super-automatic like at Starbucks - so I suppose the quality can vary from visit to visit, but ours was top-notch today. Would definitely go back, and would recommend to anyone. read more

My decaf Americano was excellent with the delicious crema, in a cappuccino cup and served with a real spoon. I asked for the 8oz with two shots. It was so nice to see a place offer 8 oz servings. The staff made up the order correctly but they were more involved with their own conversations than with the customers. This particular shop has only bar-type of seating along with outside table and chairs. Not a comfortable chatting atmosphere but certainly a handy place to get a drink to take to the shopping area or the beach. I considered getting some beans but their selection was limited. Appreciate that it is fair trade, organic and locally roasted. read more

I love Amavida, their iced coffees are amazing for the summer and their warm mochas are perfect in the winter. For a cup of water it is $.50 but that's reasonable for discouraging people to waste plastic cups. I talked to their barista about this and apparently they aren't charging for the water but the cup because it's a waste for water, they kindly said that if I had a bottle to fill it would be free. Their pastries are fantastic!! 10/10! read more

This is definitely above average coffee in an excellent location. The milk for their cortado was served too hot a couple times but perfect the other couple of times so there is a little bit of inconsistency depending on who's on the machine. I've had nothing other than the coffee here so I cannot comment on the rest. The location is to die for. Textbook definition of tourist trap but still very, very beautiful and well worth visiting and walking around. read more

Amavida, a local coffee shop, also sells Latin American food at its Seaside location- go figure, right? Prices are more affordable than many restaurants in the area and the food here is simple, straightforward and good. You know what you're getting, and it's not an overpriced Niçoise salad that's more of an appetizer than an entrée. Good Mexican food is hard to find on 30a, especially if you don't want to, or can't, venture out to highway 98 to the Mexican mercaditos and restaurants. The Amavida in Seaside hired a Hispanic woman to cook some authentic dishes to go along with their coffee and pastry options. Watch out, she makes a mean red sauce that will leave you in tears if you eat too much of it! You can sit inside at the air-conditioned bar or brave the sweltering heat and sit at one of the outdoor tables. From left to right, we ordered the P1 El Gallo Mexican Chicken Burrito $8.95, A1 La Reina Chunky Chicken with Avocado Salad Arepa $7.95, and the E1 El Boriqua Picadillo Beef (Spiced Beef), Carrots, and Potatoes Empanada $6.95. All portions were hefty enough for lunch and tasty enough to return. The burrito and arepa were simple but good. I would have liked the arepa to be seasoned more, but that's typically the nature of arepas. The empanada was a stand out- a thin, fried outer shell generously filled with seasoned beef and vegetables served with a tangy green salsa. If you love empanadas as much as I do, I would absolutely return to the Seaside location to grab a simple lunch or hot snack. Oh right, and the coffee... I can't really comment on their coffee drinks and pastries since our sole reason for going into Amavida was their Mexican food but maybe next time I'll actually order a beverage! read more

There's this lady in the back that makes the most amazing chicken avocado arepas (chicken and avocado between two corn pancake tortilla bun things) which makes for a really good lunch. Amavida roasts their own fair trade coffee and the baristas know their stuff. If you like the burnt bean taste of Starbucks coffee espresso, you won't get that flavor profile here. It's a small space and so indoor seating is limited but there is enough room to plop down with your laptop and check some emails. read more

Fantastic coffee! Service very good fast service. Small shop with a long line that moves fast. Love The bottled water in aluminum and earth conscious products. read more

Espresso was great prices fair/pricey but after I made a purchase I asked for a water and was told it would be a 55 cejt charge? Are you kidding me? I spend $5 in your store and I can't get some water, absurd. Couldn't believe it when she told I have been to many coffee shops and I work in one never have I ever heard of charging people for water. Wouldn't recommend for that slimey way of extracting money from tourists. The baked goods are really good though read more

Pretty decent iced lattes!

Great location in the heart of seaside with a small and somewhat congested interior but they do offer outdoor seating. Boisterous atmosphere so not the best spot for studying or reading. I visited with a group of girls and we ordered a variety of beverages: Green Tea, Soy Latte and Iced White Mocha, all of which were sadly underwhelming. On the positive the pricing was reasonable compared to your standard mainstream coffee places and they have a huge offering of milk options, pastries, and local items. read more

Small coffee shop, but quality coffee! I love the flat white! Very little indoor seating, however, they have a long bar facing the window that's great to get work done. read more

My friend and I came for some breakfast coffee and we both ordered iced vanilla lattes! When we got them, they did not taste like coffee. It had a fruity tang to it that was not delightful! We tried to fix it with creamer and sugar but it just made it worse! If you are looking for some normal coffee this is not for you! read more

I am so glad I chose this place to come to for my morning coffee. The customer service couldn't be friendlier and the coffee selection is fantastic. The inside...it has some seating but not too much inside. There are several places outside to sit. They have free wifi as well. I noticed they have a rack of newspapers for everyone to read which is very nice. The grub.... i tried the Ethiopian that they were offering and I am considering getting some for my home. It is quality coffee and I wish I Could bring one of these to birmingham. I didn't try any but their pastry case looks incredible. They are all about fresh,natural,and quality products here. Definitely a must go for coffee read more

One of my favorite coffee shops. Service is friendly and fast. Great location on the beach side of Seaside. Perfect place to ride your bike to and drink your coffee on the beach. Bike racks are right in front of the coffee shop. Nice touch is there are kid size cups and they will make the hot Chocolate at kid temperature which will not burn their mouths. I also like that they have skim milk on the stir and cream bar so you don't have to ask for it. read more

I came here almost every day during my stay and it never disappointed. Everyone was friendly and I appreciated how seriously they took COVID by providing masks. All the pastries were superb too. Getting my morning latte here with breakfast got me up early each day! read more

We were recently in Amavida Coffee shop while staying at our friends home in Seaside. We went there Monday morning. We ordered two iced coffees. One regular and one decaf. One regular milk and one nonfat. I took one taste and thought it the worst coffee I ever had. I even went back to the counter and asked if the date on the milk had expired, thinking that was the problem ( besides the coffee tasting bitter and watery, really not good coffee). I was told it was fine. I walked out of store and tried it again and threw it in the trash. My friend who I was with took a taste of hers and She threw hers away also. I would not go back. We waited ten minutes for the worst beverage and it cost us ten bucks. I would avoid this coffee shop. Spend your money elsewhere. read more

What a cool place. I love how eco friendly they are. Their plastic cups are made of corn and the straws are made of paper with cute turtles printed on them. Ice coffee really hit the spot after swimming. read more

I love bike riding on 30A and visiting coffee shops! You have to go to Amavida if you are in Seaside or Rosemary Beach The BEST coffee and the area was so cute! read more

This was terrible, sour, bitter coffee. Don't go here, or at least buy something that covers up the taste of the coffee, like a mocha. This place was an expensive yuck. EDIT: Jennifer - it was a regular cup of coffee -- the kind that a coffee shop should be able to make well every time. read more

Went here every morning during our vacation. Coffee is good. Food is good. Really appreciate the social distancing and mask wearing of employees and thoughtful layout to manage the line. read more

+ soy is unflavored (unlike sbux vanilla soy) - bad parking situation - not a lot of seating - no vegan food options despite advance inquiry indicating they did - unfriendly staff - inattentive staff (stood there for eons while baristas chatted each other up) - unwilling to remake a drink that tasted way too sugary (dropped it in the garbage on the way out the door) - one barista was eating and sipping a cappuccino behind the counter in view of customers - they don't know what ceremonial grade matcha is and def don't use it (the matcha used for lattes is presweetened and oversweetened. The other "matcha" option is sencha, NOT matcha no matter what the label says) - overpriced for a gross drink that won't be remade - long waits (perhaps due to the staff eating and chatting instead of making drinks) Save your money. Walk next door to pickles and have a two dollar black coffee instead. Never had a good experience there and gave them several chances. Won't go back. read more

Favorite coffee shop on 30-a - as good as a roaster from a bigger city. Really like espresso drinks, the Latin food is awesome. Look forward to morning coffee here every time I'm in town. read more
