Plenty of parking options and an accessible location with lots of indoor seating (no outdoor seating from what I saw). Visited on a Friday morning at around 9AM and the place was busy, but not packed. Friendly staff who immediately made drinks that were ordered after taking the order (order was just cold brew - very simple). High quality coffee in the Jax area that I highly recommend.

BOLD BEAN '26 (Riverside) - Afterthoughts... Not my first visit, and certainly not my last! This very hippy, laid-back spot is one I frequented often in my pre-COVID downtown workdays, and I'm happy to find myself returning more regularly in 2026--especially since their partnership with Coffee (JAVA) Culture, which supports local coffee shops around town and beyond. Bold Bean has always been a well-kept, spotless, and spacious café--perfect for meet-ups, studying, or simply enjoying your caffeine fix while admiring local art displayed throughout the shop. Service was neat, friendly, and refreshingly quick. Order: Large take-away Honey Latte with oat milk + extra shot (3 total). The taste was just as I remembered: a clean first sip with zero burnt aftertaste. Well done. (Next time I'll ask for extra honey--lesson learned from my BFF.) Noticed they now have a dedicated pick-up order area, which I'll definitely be trying very soon. A must-try and repeat spot. .5 out of 5 (4.5 of 5)

The milkiest, void of coffee, vanilla latte I've ever had the displeasure of paying good money for.

Bold Bean has been my favorite coffee in Jax for years. After my third recent visit, and the coffee constantly being mostly milk and almost having no coffee flavor, I am done. Sad sad times. Absolutely horrible.

This is a great coffee shop! A lot of space to sit. Great set up and aesthetics! Coffee was real tasty as well!

We were looking for a coffee shop on our way to Orlando! We stopped by for a cup of coffee and enjoyed the atmosphere and open concept, however, I didn't love the flavor. The coffee was on the sour side which I'm not used to. Staff were friendly and responsive.

The coffee is okay but we prefer to just make it at home because it tastes better. The food is also okay but they really need to have a menu for their food items along with prices. I paid just under $7 for a bacon and egg sandwich (ok, reasonable) and $10 for the croissant sandwich that just had sliced meat and cheese, not even a top. Pictured is my $19 breakfast with no drinks or sides. Was not good. Next time we will go to Starbucks

Bold Bean Coffee Roasters in Riverside is a solid stop for fresh, well-made coffee in a clean, cozy space. The baristas were friendly. Coffee was the highlight for me, though the croissant fell a bit short of expectations.

If you are looking for a great local coffee shop with a hipster/chill vibe - definitely stop into Bold Bean. I stopped in to grab an iced matcha latte and catch up on some work. I did park on the side street at no cost. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday mid morning however I was able to find a table to sit at. I got a chance to watch the barista make my matcha and I was pretty impressed. Some places I have been to have it pre-made however, she literally took her time to whisk the matcha powder with hot water. It was pretty good as it was paired with almond milk. This was not sweet at all which I enjoyed unlike a lot of commercialized coffee shops. Working here was a great vibe and atmosphere. Everyone was so productive and it just made a perfect afternoon to get tasks completed. They do have free wifi and extended outlets for charging purposes. Whenever I'm in Jax, I will definitely come back to this coffee shop for not only a pick me up but a productive afternoon.

Very first time coffee drinker friendly! The menu explains the different milk ratios and sizes of cappuccino, macchiato, and latte. There are 5 options for pour overs, with the origins listed. We tried the Burundi Nyagishiru pour over and it has a delicious taste and a richness - not too fruity or floral, and not bitter. The coffee process were also reasonable. There's a lot of seating and beautiful art on the walls. The cappuccino was also well made with an option of all different milks, to include almond, oat, whole, and skim. The parking in the area is street parking and it is free.

Susan F.

Super cute coffee spot! We ordered vanilla iced lattes, chocolate croissants and cinnamon sugar croissant and mango popsicles! The croissants were delicious. They served them warm. I would have liked for them to pf plated them as I had flakes of pastry all over the table. The coffee was solid. I ordered a medium iced vanilla latte. It came with 2 shots. I personally like a strong latte and next time I come I would order a extra shot in my latte. Mango popsicles were delicious.

Nice ambience with plenty of room to work or socialize.

Nice place and good selection of coffee and food. They offer hard boiled eggs at a great price which is nice to pair with the delicious pastries! Would love to see a few creative tea drinks on the menu but overall highly recommend!

Zachery R.

Those black specks in your vanilla latte, are in fact, vanilla bean. Excellent music loud enough to hear so I can Shazam it and take the vibe home with me. Exquisite coffees, best coffee in Jacksonville and top coffee in the world imo. Awesome staff and regulars. Some times a barista strikes out but most of the time they hit a grand slam. Come for the beverage, stay for the buzz!

The honey latte (with extra honey of course) is my FAV! Love this place. CoffeeThe baked goods are YUMMMM too. Sometimes would like to have a way to heat up a pastry. Possibly a good thing there isn't a way to warm up those cheddar bacon biscuits. I'd probably eat every one of them! Staff is always very nice and friendly.

Just yum. All I can say. Recently moved to the area and happy to have a local, convenient shop that makes the most de-lish coffee. I generally stick to the honey latte as it's so good I struggle to order anything else. Recently tried spicy chocolate - which was amazing as well.

4 star by normal standards but compared to local options 5 solid. Homemade loose leaf chai, amazing green and black tea selection and coffee galore. Diverse crowd of young professionals, police in and out, and housewife types chatting it up. Workable selection of muffins but nothing to call a solid breakfast option, simple and quick staples at best! read more

Ok, first the positives. The atmosphere is perfect. It is one of the coolest spots to hang out at in Jacksonville. The staff are all awesome. They are helpful, friendly and know what they are doing. Basically, everything about this place is on point except for one thing: the coffee isn't that good. The Lattes are pretty good, presumably because they incorporate other flavors that mask the flavor of the coffee. I've had the honey, curry, and spicy chocolate and all were enjoyable and things I would order again. I especially liked the curry latte because it was just so unique. But let's talk about the coffee as it stands by itself and not in latte form: I've had probably 5 or 6 different types of beans for regular coffee and espresso combined, as well as a macchiato which still let's the flavor of the coffee come through (it's not covered up with caramel or chocolate etc.). I've had the auto-drip a few times, as well as pour over multiple times. I've had it black, I've had it with various amounts of cream and sugar. I've also had a cup of coffee with a shot of espresso in it. No matter what kind of coffee I get or how I fix it up, the coffe always has a sour, almost spoiled type of taste. Not bitter, sour. To the point where I have to keep from cringing every time I take a sip. My girlfriend agrees. She found the coffee to have a sour taste as well. I really, really want to like this place and I think I've given it plenty of chances. I would have to agree with another reviewer (Ethan I believe) in that the atmosphere would bring me back, not the coffee. If anybody has a specific recommendation for a regular coffe I should try (blend/bean and brew method), then please tell me. Until then I'll just stick with one of the lattes and enjoy the killer atmosphere. Update: Today I was in Whole Foods and decided to give Bold Bean one more chance and bought a bag of their coffee (Honduras Marcala). Came home, ground the beans and brewed it in my french press. To my surprise, the coffee wasn't sour tasting and actually had a nice flavor. So, WTF is going on in the shop? Everything I get there is sour with the exception of the lattes, but when I brew their beans at home it comes out tasting fine. I really liked the Honduras that I brewed at home. It not only tasted good but it had a unique flavor. It was a little weak for my tastes, but that could easily be from the brewing process. I've made some of the most delicious cups of coffee with my french press, and then the very next day with the same beans I've made a cup that was just "meh". I'm looking forward to experimenting around with the measurements to really bring out the flavor of this coffee. I'll stick with the lattes in the shop, but I'll continue to buy their regular coffee beans for brewing at home. Update 2: I just found out via Yelp's review filter that I'm a spammer writing fake reviews. Please disregard the above review. read more

I go to school at the University of Florida and nearly every coffee shop there buys their coffee from bold bean so when I came to Jacksonville to try out the original bold bean I was not disappointed. The coffee was simply amazing and for the price and quality that you are getting it at makes it seem like everywhere else you go is just Starbucks. It's located in a very chic part of town and there are a lot of spots in the store to study at as well. The entire place gives out a great vibe. read more

I really enjoy going to Bold Bean and it is a great place to get work done. Outside of the coffee selections, they also have a variety of beer available as well as some light food. Normally I go to coffee shops for coffee and bars for beer so I haven't imbibed there yet but there is a good local selection. My go to there is a black coffee with an espresso shot. Personally I think Vagabond does it a little better but it is still great coffee. The cashiers and baristas are always super nice and make you feel at home. The only complaint I really have is the amount of outlets. Since most people there have a screen of some kind there with them, it would be nice if outlets were more bountiful. Not really a huge deal though, and definitely a place I will continue to visit. read more

A lot of choices in new and different coffee blends and styles. I had a question that I was worried would be seen as stupid, but my barista assured me it wasn't, and explained what I needed to know. My honey latte was strong and sweet, and I was super sad when it came to an end. The atmosphere is what you would expect from most coffee houses: an eclectic mix of people, a pleasant vibe, yummy food stuffs, and of course, coffee! Well lit, great decor, the only thing I wish they had was more seating, but hey. I always seem to come when it's busy :-) read more

It seems that they follow the Starbucks trend for their macchiatos. I like my coffee to taste like coffee, not milk, which is why I even requested a double shot of espresso in my macchiato. Instead I basically got a latte. I'll try them again, but maybe next time I'll ask for no steamed milk. read more

Is this coffee shop super hipstery? Yes Is the coffee/tea pretty damn good? Hell yes. So the hipster ambiance is acceptable haha I will admit, I'm not much of a coffee drinker (my bf is and he loves this spot) but I love tea, so I ordered my usual chai latte, and was quite impressed! (He loved his machiatto and I gushed over how cute the foam turned into a leaf lol) Back to the menu: so. much. variety! All of the imported coffee and add-ons were a bonus. Any true coffee head would appreciate this spot. Dessert items were a little lackluster in my opinion. there was a grit-custard pie (ehhhhh) and some sad looking scones...I decided to opt out. The service was very friendly and personable; the shop was kept clean; music was pretty good; and I really liked the exposed brick and wood beams. I'll go back for sure! read more

Oh, glory. I never feel closer to Heaven than when I consume Bold Bean's creations. The iced coffee with a shot (termed "shot in the dark") is my favorite. If you put milk or sugar in your coffee here, I feel bad for you. But I understand because their flavored lattes are a beautiful thing. The baristas are friendly, helpful, and most importantly, extremely knowledgeable about every product they have. I've been to many coffee shops (such as Volta in Gainesville) where the staff is pretentious to an obnoxious point, but it's such a nice relief to have a down-to-earth and friendly staff. I've been going to Bold Bean since they opened, and do miss the days without the lines. But with a product like theirs, the popularity is well deserved and respectable. The rotating featured art in the shop is always impressive. Music is great, temperature is right, facility is clean, and I guess what I'm saying is beautiful inside and out. Basically if shirtless Brad Pitt from Fight Club were a coffee shop, it would be Bold Bean. Other than all that, I have nothing to say. If you don't like Bold Bean you're a foolish fool of all fools.

Maybe I'm spoiled with Orlando's coffee scene but this missed the mark. Honey latte was good but the spicy chocolate latte was missing the spice completely, great chocolate flavor though. Could have been a communication error, had to correct the person taking the order four times to finally get on the same page. The sizing also is a little off. 15 dollars for three large lattes all in 12oz glasses. That's seems a bit pricey for the cup. Still on the hunt for a great latte in Jax. read more

So far visited this coffee shop once. As my first impress I would have to say it's a very comfortable atmosphere! They press their own coffee and has it on display which is so very neat!! They have a cute little bar, which I was told they serve alcohol too, not just coffee drinks... The art on the wall is cute and apparently gets switched out. The vanilla latte is delicious!!! My friend, a coffee nut, claims it is the best coffee around Jax!! My favorite part is they have so many different latte flavors, about 7, so I can't wait to return to try the other flavors, like their chocolate spice!!! I will definitely be back, maybe I'll see you there!! read more

This is some of my favorite coffee in town. Since they serve beer and coffee, it's nice for groups that may want different things to drink. Only downside is that it tends to be very loud when it gets crowded, so I usually get my coffee to go rather than sticking around. The floor is concrete, and the sounds get magnified.

This place understands the importance of good beans and the proper technique for getting most flavor out of your coffee. Having had the cold brew and pour over a few times as I have passed through I am now 100% convinced that this is a 5 star spot! Impressed with the cold brew and the pour over, but think that their signature cold brew process is one of the best I have had. They do it so perfect. The baked good are extremely delicious and the staff and atmosphere for this place is everything you want from a small town coffee shop.

I'm looking for a quiet wifi spot to do work and enjoy a cup of joe... other than Starbucks. How's Bold Bean? Open for any other suggestions!

Even though it was busy it never got loud while we were there. My husband and I went on a Saturday morning if that helps.

The parking right in front isn't the best but there is ample parking in the shops surrounding the business. The environment was lowkey with several patrons on laptops or catching up with friends.

Which is frustrating, specially when you've been craving something specific from them. I've ordered from the kiosk and an actual person before and the order ends up being wrong. Ever since new ownership took over, I feel like the quality of this place has gone down. Or at least the quality of the food has gone down. The shredded turkey isn't even the same anymore. sliced turkey is no longer the same, you can tell it is from a packaged brand, the one that they use now definitely changes the flavor of the bagel XL. The other day I ordered a bagel XL with sliced turkey, egg,cheese, and cream cheese,l and when I got home it wasn't the sliced turkey but the turkey patty. When I I got home I called them and advised them it was the wrong order. They said to bring it back, and they would make the right one, which they did. But driving back and forth 15 mins each way to go pick it up and exchange it because they wrong is a bit of hassle. Also, it seems like their ordering system is also always printing out the wrong order. And then a few days later I placed an order for delivery and the drink was wrong. I had ordered the peach drink and I got some berry one. I also order a plain bagel with cream cheese for someone and it barely had any cream cheese.

Both were good, but the blueberry matcha really added a nice flavor to the matcha to where it did not taste like grass like how matcha can taste. Even when I drank most of the blueberry flavoring, the drink was still delicious! The Ambiance is great as well! Very calming and not overwhelming at all. The plants around the bar add a nice touch with relaxing music in the background. I really enjoy the days when it's less crowded just because it's easier to find a seat haha, but props to the bar for their busy days!!!!

I don't particularly like brownies, but this one looked particularly appetizing, and the order-taker said it was one of her favorites, so we tried it. That was a mistake. Perhaps I should have tried the mini cream puffs, which are a favorite of mine (3 for $5), instead. Among other things I usually like, they had carrot cake for $7 and a cup of cheesecake for $9 (which seems steep). Their fruit shaped pastries looked beautiful (and a couple next to us said they loved the mango one), but were $12 each. Their fruit-topped Danishes also looked delicious, but weren't available any more at lunch time. They also offer milk shakes and loaded (sweet) croissants. There are only four stools here next to a bar, if you want to eat in. The bathroom was pretty good. I probably wouldn't come here again, but if I were in the area I might try some of their other pastries or sweet treats.

The hubby and I went to the Bold Bean after church today after reading about their business. I was interested because they buy their coffee from fair trade and roast it right here in Jacksonville! Who knew? When we got there around 12:30pm, it was packed. The vibe there is easy going and the smell of coffee draws you in. We each ordered a coffee, but didn't want to order the same. I got an Ethiopian blend, and he ordered a Columbian. We decided to go for the pour-over method becuase that's how my German grandma and my mother made their coffee. The process is pretty cool, but what made it even better, is that the barista does the whole thing right in front of the customers...very cool. ok...now time for the truth about their coffee...simply fantastic. I was a little worried about the way they would do the pour-over method; I guess I'm a little protective because od my european background. I was not disappointed! The coffee was the perfect temperature and the taste was so smooth. They offer several methods of brewing coffee which indicates just how authentic they are as coffee roasters. I ate a pumpkin bread, which was moist, but could have been a little more 'pumpkiny.' I recommend this place to just sit, read the paper, relax in one of several leather chairs, and enjoy a little time on Wi-Fi. It is also disabled-friendly, if that's the correct term to use. A gentleman in a wheelchair was able manuever easily because of the space and the solid flooring. The prices are quite reasonable as well. read more

Bold Bean Coffee Roasters is the kind of place that instantly makes you slow down and savor the moment. From the first sip, it's clear this isn't just coffee--it's a craft. Each cup is thoughtfully brewed, highlighting the depth, balance, and character of carefully sourced beans roasted to perfection. The atmosphere strikes a beautiful balance between modern and inviting, making it just as ideal for a quiet morning coffee as it is for catching up with friends or getting some work done. The baristas are knowledgeable and genuinely passionate, always happy to guide you through the menu or recommend a roast that suits your taste. Beyond the exceptional coffee, the attention to detail stands out--from the consistency of the drinks to the welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger a little longer. Bold Bean Coffee Roasters isn't simply a stop for caffeine; it's a destination for anyone who truly appreciates quality, craftsmanship, and a thoughtfully curated coffee experience. read more

I ordered the large iced coffee... it was just that, a large iced coffee. I really enjoyed the product and the atmosphere of this place. Most importantly, the coffee was great. In response to the one negative review, if you feel like you need to review a place negatively because it is full of "hipsters" or because you cannot figure out the complex function of the water dispenser then you should probably resort to purchasing your folgers at walmart and surrounding yourself with better suited Wendy's patrons. If personal style and youth offends you then coming out of the trailer to greet the day must be painful. All with an interest in good coffee and enjoying the company of young professionals keeping to themselves will enjoy opening a book or scribbling a cartoon here morning, night or day. read more

We are definitely loving this coffee shop! When it comes to coffee, my family and I always find ourselves turning our backs to this coffee shop. Their regular coffee, espresso, caffé americano, café latte, cappuccino, long black, and even their smoothies have a distinct taste that makes them stand-out from the rest. One of their amicable waiters has also told us that their baristas underwent long-spanned training before brewing behind the shop's bar which is why they perfectly craft latte art and make the best-tasting coffees. read more
