Easy Luck is such a gem in Orlando. They have a variety of coffee and toasts (we only popped in for…read moresome coffee/matcha but will be back to try the food). We had the cherry blossom matcha, which was a perfect balance between the cherry blossom flavor and matcha. It was sweet but not TOO sweet and there was a little flower in the cup as well. So cute. My husband got the flash brewed iced coffee which was SO interesting. He had never tried anything like it but the flavors were bold and it was really smooth. The staff was so sweet and we got our drinks super quick. We can't wait to come back.

I got their Chantilly Cake Latte (seasonal) and their croissant breakfast sandwich. My colleague tried their burrata sandwich. The latte was good (a bit sweet) and mostly just tasted like amaretto, but I like that flavor profile. The croissant sandwich was delish with ham and muenster cheese. The croissant itself was big & fluffy. As with most things these days, it was PRICEY. Two lattes and two sandwiches (with tip) came to $50 which is more than I typically budget for a quick breakfast. Service was friendly and quick, and there is free onsite parking which is a big plus! I saw a lot of people lap-topping it working from here, and it seems to be a nice quiet ambiance for that.

I've been catching Ligature at their local pop-ups all over town for years now, and I'm so glad…read morethey finally have a shop in the heart in the SoDo district. I stopped in this past weekend to finally check out the new digs and it's such a vibe. It's a minimal space with a clear brand identity, and I just love the overall simplicity. What makes Ligature stand out in my opinion are all their house made syrups. They make some really unique flavors that can be added to any latte or matcha. I honestly can't wait to try them all: burnt honey, brown sugar vanilla, toasted coconut, citrus orange blossom, and mocha. They also have a rotating draft latte that is currently spiced pineapple which sounds amazing. I was in a matcha mood, so I got an iced orange blossom citrus matcha and it was divine. Perfect for Florida summer! The barista was very nice and explained the different syrups along with her recs -- much appreciated. I'll definitely be back soon!

I've been wanting to try Ligature as it's the newest coffee shop in Sodo. I went in this morning to…read moretry one of the draft lattes they have. When I got there, they were already out. When I asked about when they would've back in stock, they didn't know when they would have more which was a little disappointing. They have a really limited menu, so I ended up getting an iced mocha with oat milk. It was pretty good. I was able to get some work done while enjoying my drink. They have seating, but it fills up before 11am so come early. One thing I like is that they offer oat milk with no charge, and the draft lattes are made with oat milk as well. Hopefully, I can try the draft latte next time

I was really excited for the guava matcha. While I love their matcha, I was a little underwhelmed by how little guava flavor came through. You can see the tiny layer of guava in the picture, and I would have loved a bit more of it in the drink. I am willing to give it another shot with extra guava! The carrot cake croissant was incredible! I also tried the jalapeño goat cheese scone and was pleasantly surprised by the level of spice. I could eat that every day! And of course, service is always great. The space itself is one of my favorite parts of Lineage. It is bright, airy from all the natural light making it such a great place to hang out!

It was pretty terrible with zero sweetness and pretty small... like Napoleon. I also got a pastry in the form of a chocolate croissant, and the croissant part was one of the best with a super crispy crunchy exterior, but there could have been more of the chocolate filling. It was more than some others I've had, but still not enough. Is there ever enough filling though? It's not convenient for me, so I doubt I'll be back to give it another try. I was expecting some toasty and roasty coffee. Plenty of other coffee places popping up.

Which I love because it shows they pay attention to their customers. I've tried a couple things already. Their vanilla matcha is my favorite. Their coffee is good but it could be stronger. I got the cafe con leche and as a Hispanic, our "cafe" is STRONG so I was expecting a good punch. It was too light for my liking (too much milk). I will be more detailed when ordering going forward. It was a good drink, just felt it could've been just a bit stronger. That being said I have tried the honey nut cheerio latte and that one is amazing! I like how they heat up the pastries before handing them to you. They always taste fresh. Other than that the place is always very clean. Very bright inside quiet. Good place to work, study or just relax. They do have outdoor seating available and small area for pets in the back.

The coffee was the perfect color, smooth & just the right amount of sweet without being overwhelming. What really made this drink stand out, though, was the real piece of flan cake on top. It was such a fun touch because I got to enjoy little bites throughout the drink, and finding it again toward the end felt like a sweet surprise. It definitely lived up to the hype and was the perfect way to kick off my Florida trip. I'd absolutely come back for another one.

They have a large selection of coffees and pastries and in the morning they have sandwiches too (I was too late to check those out). I had a sugar free, vanilla iced latte with almond milk and a warmed banana bread. Both were delicious. I ordered for "in" so it came in a nice glass and the banana bread came on a metal tray. There is plenty of seating around the cafe and they have places to plug in for charging your devices. It seems many people come here to work and hang out. I'll definitely come back next time I'm in the area.

On a Sunday morning, it was pretty packed, and parking was a gentle challenge. We were able to secure a table for 4, ordered our treats, and waited for them to call us. I was actually very pleasantly surprised at the fact that they had gluten-free options, and although I usually don't eat breakfast and usually drink my coffee black, I thought I would treat myself. A chocolate-banana muffin and seasonal raspberry latte with almond milk later, we were having a wonderful chat. May I say that it has a great vibe and dogs are allowed, so I was happy. The muffin was very good; I had to save some for later. The rasperry latte offered an interesting combination of flavors. Can't wait to try a regular latte or the coffee black.

It's Sunday, I needed to explore the other things this city has to offer. On my search I came across Mariam Coffee. Roughly one block away from Lake Eola, this small coffee establishment is in a great place. Nice little courtyard under the Radius, an apartment complex, right in the heart of downtown. As soon as I walked in I was greeted by a familiar smell. Not the typical American coffee joint, the unique smell I associate with the Middle East. I was there for business a couple of years ago and grew pretty fond of a good traditional Turkish coffee. I didn't even bother looking at the menu, I asked the man at the counter who turned out to be the owner, "what do you recommend?" He asked one simple question, "hot or cold?" And my response shaped the rest of my morning. "Hot. As hot as you can get it." He offered me a Turkish coffee saying, "I'll make it traditional. Will that be too strong for you?" Absolutely not. I needed to have it just the way they make it in the sandy deserts of the Middle East. He pulled the pot and began preparing it. I recognized the familiar box of sand, used to heat the coffee. After a few seconds he brought it to my table, the time had come. He used a different bean than I was accustomed to. It was floral. Like a blend of coffee and tea. It was amazing. I definitely recommend this spot. Get a coffee. Enjoy the ambiance. Sip it with friends.

You can rarely go wrong with Turkish coffee, so visiting Mariam coffee was a must!…read more Inside the shop it's quaint and super cute. They have a lot of coffee types to choose from, both Turkish & Middle Eastern inspired as well as some American favorites like pumpkin spice or s'mores. I went for a cardamom latte as the owner said that's one of the most popular drinks. And I get why- it was strong, smooth, and a hint of sweet with the cardamom. Oh so delicious. They have some yummy looking baked items as well- no actual food but the coffee stands well on its own. The storefront is in an odd corner of downtown Orlando and I'm honestly not sure how it'd be trying to park and come here. I walked so it was fine but I could see that being the one issue trying to visit.
