    Came in with some friends to get them some coffee. I don't drink coffee, so I was happy to see multiple different drink options. The man at the register was very sweet and got all our orders in quickly. I settled on the strawberry lemonade and a bacon breakfast sandwich. Both came out quickly and were so good! Everyone else liked their drink and food. Love that it's close to me so I can check them out again.

    Stopped in to try DNA on a Saturday mid-morning. Was happy to find there was plenty of parking. That may not be the case during the week due to the location though. Interior is really lovely and was unexpected. Service was friendly and helpful. My sister was excited they had a cookie butter latte as a seasonal offering and her granddaughter had the cute unicorn drink with cotton candy in it! I had a blueberry iced latte with blueberry cold foam. Everything was really tasty.

    I love a cozy coffee shop but a coffee shop that also sells beautiful plants... You captured my heart! Tucked away in beautiful 5Points what a great addition. I ordered my go to Hot Americano. I needed an Espresso buzz. The barista was friendly and happy to chat about he collaboration with "Rae of Sunshine Tropicals". Thanks for the hospitality. See you again soon

    As soon as I walked in the gorgeous decor caught my eye. I love a cafe with nice decor and seating area. Makes me want to come back and get work done. My kids loved it too especially the games in the table. I forgot her name but the lady was so sweet and the boys said she was really nice. My kids enjoyed their drinks that they were gone before we left. I tried something new and it was really good. It reminded me of chocolate oranges I had when I was at my grandma's house.

    It's In The DNA Coffee Shop is one of the coolest and most thoughtfully designed coffee spots in Jacksonville. The ambiance alone is worth the visit. Warm lighting, plants, beautiful murals, and cozy seating that makes you want to stay awhile. The furniture is especially unique, with coffee tables designed using Scrabble boards and chess boards, which adds a really creative, playful touch to the space. I ordered the Oakley Shaken Latte, made with oat milk and brown sugar, and it was absolutely delicious. Smooth, lightly sweet, and full of rich flavor without being overpowering, the kind of drink you end up wishing was bottomless. Everything from the vibe to the drinks feels intentional here. Whether you're coming to relax, catch up with friends, or just enjoy a really well-made coffee, It's In The DNA Coffee Shop delivers on all of it. Add this to your coffee shop list.

    Stepped into tranquility this morning and was served by a sweet girl named Serenity. It was my first time in so she gave me insight on the place. It has that warm feel as soon as you walk in. They have unique and fun drinks too not just your typical coffee drinks. I had the Biscoff Latte. It was perfect. Not too sweet. They have cute little Sugar Gliders in there too! Everyone should believe in something. I believe in, It's in the DNA Coffee!

    Fresh Strawberry and banana crepes. Yum!

    We stopped by this hidden jem for a coffee and was surprised to find delicious crepes and avocado toast! The coffee is strong and delicious, the service is friendly, like a neighborhood bar without the booze, and the atmosphere is modern garden. Comfortable spots to sit and sip or sit at the bar and chat with the barista. This will be my go to coffee spot whenever I'm in town for a visit!

    If I could give more stars I would! Our first time here and we will be back. Great location away from the crazy traffic of five points. Cozy spot with bar and lounge type seating. Even a few places to sit outside. I didn't get her name but our server was fantastic! I ordered the Monkeying around and my husband the Floridian. Both were delicious and our server did a great job with the extra touches. We also sampled the Monte Cristo Crepes. So good!

    I am going to give 4 stars for the time being... I would say the coffee was just okay.. the muffin wasn't bad, it was just okay! The sweet girl working wasn't sure of any question that I asked and had to call to ask. Just slightly lacking in quality service. The vibes were super cute and photogenic! The music was pretty loud and obnoxious so maybe not your study spot but for sure a hang out spot. I will give them another chance since they just opened and they have so many options, so I'll not make my final decision on them just yet! For now I'm giving 7/10 total experience.

    Place is decorated nice. Has small outdoor seating area as well. They have a physical menu booklet. Which I love. Seemed like a mom/ daughter owner. Very nice ! My drink was good. No complaints.

    Visited on their grand opening. The shop is in a fantastic location and the decor inside is cozy and inviting. They have a nice mixture of more couches and tables & chairs for working or casual meetups. I tried a lavender latte which was really tasty and the coffee wasn't bitter at all. I wouldn't say it was my favorite lavender latte I've had but I did not try any of their signature drinks. The staff was friendly. I'd definitely stop in again when in the area.

    Highly recommend this place for coffee or specialty drinks. Service was great as well. However the food was okay and the portions are kinda small. Overall definitely worth a try. The decor is really cute and it makes for a great place to study.

Arrival was effortless thanks to their convenient parking options. Stepping inside, I was immediately enchanted by the ambiance. While unassuming at first glance, the decor is exquisitely appointed, featuring a charming bar area alongside a breathtaking display of artisanal cakes and delicate treats. The venue is pristine, elegant, and impeccably maintained. The hospitality was top-tier from start to finish. My server, Evan, was remarkably gracious, attentive, and ensured I was seated comfortably, making the entire experience feel thoroughly luxurious. To unwind after a long day, I ordered an Espresso Martini, which was mixed to sheer perfection smooth, rich, and an absolute delight. For my main dish, I selected the Duck Wonton Napoleon, which was nothing short of divine. The flavors were sophisticated, beautifully balanced, and executed with real skill. From the pristine cleanliness and chic decor to the stellar service from Evan and exquisite cuisine, BB's earns full marks. A thoroughly marvelous evening I shall most certainly be returning

We ordered the Brussel sprouts as an appetizer, they were phenomenal! Then we both decided on steak for dinner. I got the filet, and ordered it medium rare and it was perfect. My husband ordered the ribeye and his was medium, his was also spot on. Then of course, we had to get dessert. I got the German chocolate cake (this apparently isn't their normal one) and my husband got the dulce cheesecake. The waitress we had was great, and she recommended lots of tips and favorites to try. The only negative thing that I would say is that it's a bit cramped, so it was very loud and hard to hear each other at points. This was an amazing dinner. We will be back

We didn't really need the reservation as we arrived right after they opened and it was not busy. We were greeted immediately and wished happy anniversary by multiple staff members. They also brought us two glasses of white wine to celebrate. The space is beautiful, bright and clean. We asked for a recommendation between two appetizers and chose the shrimp with garlic and chili. We added sourdough toast on the recommendation and we were not disappointed. The toast was perfect to dip in the sauce and the shrimp were delicious. I also ordered their old world fashioned and was super happy. I try old fashioned everywhere I can and this one is definitely in my top three. Unfortunately, my entree was not as good as the rest of my meal. The flavor of the scallops was strange, I am guessing from the pea flavor. I love mushrooms and risotto, but this one was not good. The risotto was not super creamy, seemed a bit uncooked. Based on most of our meal, I would definitely return to try other entrees.

The overall restaurant looked clean and great for a date night. We weren't feeling too hungry so we ordered the following based on the waitress and our friend's recommendations: 1) Crispy Brussels sprouts 2) Duck Fat Corn Bread 3) House made pasta + sugo The crispy brussels sprouts were a bit undercooked and lacked flavor but if you prefer a less crispy Brussel sprout dish I would recommend it over the duck fat corn bread. The duck fat corn bread was disappointing. It was an odd combination of flavors that did not mix very well. The corn bread was mushy and the crisp Napa cabbage with the random ranch/spicy sauce combo did not pair well and left my mouth feeling confused. I had high expectations for their house made pasta as they had a pasta maker out for viewing. The pasta was overcooked and every bite was an interesting mix of flavors...some bites salty...some bites unseasoned. There was barely any meat present and overall we ended up not finishing our meal and wrapping up the night. The only good thing we had was the homemade soda that I did not get a picture of but I believe was the hibiscus one. Overall I would recommend this place for drinks but not dinner.
