Island Espresso - Chai, bayshore and banana split lattes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Saint George Island, Florida

Came down to St. George with my family this week, and as a huge coffee lover, one of the first things I did was look up the local coffee shops. That's how I found Island Espresso! I stopped by this morning, and the outside of the shop is absolutely adorable. There's a decent amount of parking, and the whole place feels very welcoming from the moment you arrive. The menu has a great variety beyond just coffee, including flavored milk, Italian-style sodas, chai, and more, so there's something for everyone. They also had pastries and desserts available, although there weren't many left when I visited around 10:00 a.m. I'm not sure if they had already sold out or just make smaller batches, but everything looked delicious--especially the classic cinnamon roll. I'm definitely regretting not grabbing one! I ordered an iced Coconut Caramel Latte with almond milk. They only offer one size (16 oz.) for iced coffee, which was perfectly fine for me. The cashier was kind and welcoming, and although our interaction was brief, she was very sweet. The coffee itself was good! I think next time I'd probably try a different flavor combination, as coconut and caramel wasn't quite my favorite. My sister ordered their specialty latte called the "River" (butterscotch and honey), and after trying it, I have to say it was incredible. That drink completely won me over, so based on the quality of the coffee itself, I'd definitely come back. The inside of the shop is just as charming as the outside. It has a modern, beach-inspired vibe with bright, cheerful colors. I also loved the Bible verses displayed throughout the shop--they were such a thoughtful touch and added to the warm atmosphere. There was plenty of seating with comfy chairs, couches, and tables, making it a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. Overall, Island Espresso is a cute, welcoming coffee shop with great drinks and a cozy atmosphere. If you're in St. George, it's definitely worth stopping by! read more

Was down at SGI last month & decided to give Island Espresso a try. I love the variety of specialty lattes they offer - I think I ordered the Banana Split. I didn't pay attention to the price. I know, I know... even Starbucks prices are outta hand but Island Espresso is a bit more expensive. $8 for a 'regular' size. It was the first time I thought, is this even coffee/espresso anymore? Plus it was just a bit sweeter than I expected but it had several different things going on. I don't remember if there's much difference in basic lattes, either. But given that they do offer more than just coffee/lattes. I do encourage others to give them a try!! (Thought I took pics when I was there but I guess not - sorry) read more

Visiting family here that rented a house for the month and we were desperate for some good coffee nearby! The old fashioned pot coffee at home wasn't doing it for us. We stopped by and got a couple of cups of coffee and two pastries. Yum! Everything was great and fresh. I was eyeing a load of sourdough the had on the counter as well but we didn't have time to eat it as we were only there for a short time. This lil gem has great customer service and a big selection of souvenirs and gifts as well as a play area in the back for the littles. read more

Drinks were okay, menu had a decent variety - wait times were insane. 40+ min for 2 drinks was pretty wild. It was Memorial Day weekend so busier than normal I'm sure, but there should have been 2 people making drinks to account for the influx of guests on the island.. As for drink options - it would be nice if you offered something similar to the refreshers at standard coffee shops, or matcha options with lemonade/juice bases for the non-dairy drinkers. 5 stars for the TC bakery items though - best cinnamon rolls we've ever had. read more

Island Espresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Saint George Island, Florida

My cousins wanted to try out island espresso and it was a pretty cute experience. They have many drink options to choose from. I saw their flavored sodas on their menu and the combos they have sounds delicious and refreshing! I'll definitely have to try the flavored sodas next time. I got their chai tea latte because it's one of my favorite drinks. The spices were nice and it was a great way to start my morning. They had little seating around the truck but people were mostly standing while they waited. We didn't have to wait long for our drinks. read more

Got coffee everyday here while we were in town for a vacation. Eventually ended up getting some bagels too a couple times. Was super impressed by how many options were on their menu. Got a different coffee every time because I wanted to try as much as the menu as I could while we were in town & they were all 10/10. Bagels were also super delicious (I recommend the French toast one in particular). Boyfriend had been wanting to try matcha for a while so I surprised him with one from here & he loved it! Guy who works there is so friendly, helpful, knowledgeable & seems like he really cares about making the coffee & food as enjoyable for each person as possible. Shop itself is super cute! We left to go back home this morning & I made sure to stop by & get myself not one, but two last coffees & a bagel for the road because they were so delicious. This place was one of my favorite parts of being on vacation in this area, which may sound silly - but if you love good coffee as much as I do, you'd understand! read more
