    We're always on the hunt for new coffee in JAX, especially places that make their own syrups. Cicada ticked all the boxes for coffee - delicious, cool vibe, great staff. Can't wait to come back!

    It is very hidden - it's basically a shed down a driveway. It one small area , very strange. Limited menu. Got a mocha cold brew. It was fine. One size of drinks as well, one the small side. They did have some outdoor seating.

    Great drink. Super cute. Order inside. Cute patio to enjoy. Lots of shade. Very nice customer service. Sweet people. Glad I found.

    If you're wandering through Riverside and need a caffeine fix that actually hits different, you have to stop by Cicada Coffee. You can find them tucked away right behind Cultivate Jax. This spot has such a cool, effortless vibe, but the heart behind it makes it even better, it's family-owned and operated by a mother and her two daughters. You can really feel that local love the moment you walk in. ​I grabbed their Shakerato, and let me tell you, it's a total game changer. It's essentially an Iced Shaken Cortado, but they level it up with their in-house smoked vanilla. The balance is incredible; you get that bold espresso kick smoothed out by a subtle, smoky sweetness that is pure magic. ​It was frosty, delicious, and absolutely perfect for a warm Jacksonville afternoon. Supporting a local, family-run business while sipping on one of the best iced drinks in the city? That's a win-win.

    I don't always love a minimal coffee menu but at Cicada it really just works! I love the tucked away spot in the back. It's a simple vibe. And the customer service 10/10! I definitely will be returning more than one time!

    Cute coffee spot, clean and bright inside. Ordered a matcha and one of their specialty coffees cicada alley. More expensive than other local spots and the cup size is small with too much ice. Overall the coffee was delicious and the sweet almond cold foam was chefs kiss. Service was friendly and inviting. Next time I'd ask for no ice so I can really get more of the coffee flavor profile.

    Really great coffee stand tucked inside Cultivate. I loved the Cicada mocha - I rarely go for anything other than drip coffee or cold brew, but the friendly folks behind the counter described it as something different, with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of bay leaf. It really was unique! I'll definitely be back to try more soon, and to browse around the shop as well.

    The best foodie quest so far this year…read more I fell off in love instantly with the cottage style house setup. As I walked up to the counter there nothing but smiling faces staring back at me. I ordered an egg sandwich on sourdough bread with an iced tea. I also ordered a sourdough rosemary & garlic loaf to go. The iced tea had a mild minty flavor and it tasted out of this world. Definitely refreshing. The food tasted so fresh and "real". I can't wait to go back!! I chose to sit outside because it was sunny out and I loved the outside eating area set up. There are plenty of colorful tables/seating outside. You can choose a table tucked away from the peaceful street view or sit out near the tree and street view and enjoy the sun. Outstanding experience!

    First time at community loaves and what a cute, neighborhood spot. Menu is small but everything is…read morefresh. I tried the egg sandwich with sausage links added and the bread it came on was delicious as was the sandwich. I also tried a bite of a friend's pastry the cardamom swirl which was wonderful as well. Lots of coffee/ tea options too. The inside is a little crowded especially for a large group so we sat outside which although their outdoor area is cute, is tough on a Jax summer day. There were tons of ants and bugs that made it difficult to sit down and enjoy. No fault of the restaurant but would recommend eating inside if you can find a spot. Food came out quickly and the staff were all pleasant.

    Wow wow wow Talk about a breath of FRESH air! Omg I am so…read morein love with this place! My first time going in and I couldn't be happier. The decor and vibe alone makes your mood happier. So I was very excited to try Greenhouse. I ordered an iced matcha latter with oat milk and vanilla and lavender and later tried a THC mocktail. Both drinks were delicious and the thc mocktail absolutely did what it was suppose to do if you catch my drift I stayed for 3 hours and about to accomplish so much work! I'm will definitely be back!

    Hello everyone! I am new to the area, and have only visited The Greenhouse Bar twice thus far. Each…read moretime that I have come, I have sat at the bar and have received excellent service! The bartenders check on you respectfully (like not every five minutes, but in a reasonable timeframe where you can enjoy your drink in peace and put in another order when you are ready). This time, I ordered the Passenger Princess and Pie in the Sky with blueberry matcha. Out of the two drinks, I think I enjoyed the Pie in the Sky more! 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!!!! Regarding the food, I have never ordered food from there so I cannot speak to it, but they do have a toaster oven device here where they can heat up food. I am not sure if they have a kitchen in the back. However, I do know that you can order food here. 10/10 recommend you checking this place out! You can even get a plant!

    Matcha me please!…read more So I've been wanting to try Foxtail for a while. So today I decided to pack up my work computer and make my way to Murray Hill. Also, if you haven't been to Murray Hill please go! Upon walking in I was greeted by the two baristas. Wyatt was the one that helped. Wyatt was super nice and the conversation just flowed. The vibe in here is very chill and you're able to work peacefully. There is a lot of seating throughout the coffee shop. I had a matcha and it was good a little on the sweeter side but I just let my ice melt down. Needles to say I will definitely be back to try more items on their menu.

    Stopped in this morning to grab a quick cup of coffee…read more The parking lot for the business is located behind the store front, but there is ample parking. The business is located at a round about on Edgewood Ave. It has multiple tables and chairs to sit in, if you want to linger. Upon entering, I made my way to the counter where I placed my order for a small cup of coffee with room for cream. They serve a medium roast, no other drip coffee option per the barista. Despite being the only one ordering, it took me a few minutes to get my coffee bc the staff were more concerned about chatting than making a cup of coffee. The condiment, cream and sugar cart is located near the front door and has everything you need. Not a bad cup, but not on my normal route.
