Went in today after a long shift! Walked in an greeted straight away, the nice girl with long hair was super sweet, and when came across a conflict with another customer, completely smiled and fixed everything just for them to be happy, the person at the register was working super hard and efficient multitasking which was very impressive and nice to see. Definitely would go again read more

Great little coffee shop in the Naples area! Narrative is located in the middle of the Mercato (opposite side of the Kilwin's). They had a very cute outdoor patio as well as quite a few tables and chairs inside. There were many people reading a book, working, or catching up with friends while enjoying their items. I love that they use their own coffee beans. I ended up ordering The Honeycomb Latte which was seasonal and recommended by our barista. It was light and so good! The vanilla cold foam was the perfect topping and I thought the Cherrio garnish was cute. My husband got the Masala Chai Tea Latte which was made from a concentrate but still had really nice flavor. This coffee shop definitely hit the spot for a midday boost and I'd certainly come back to enjoy more! read more

I really wanted to love this place. My friend got the banana cream latte and loved it, it was super flavorful and definitely the spot if you want a banana-flavored coffee. I tried it and thought it was delicious, but way too sweet for me. Unfortunately they didn't have a sugar-free banana option. I ordered a sugar-free triple iced Americano instead. I'll be honest, it didn't taste very strong and felt a little diluted. The croissants were good though... not overly sweet and a nice size. Everything we got came out to about $25 total. It does get very busy at certain times, but we came at a good time so it wasn't bad. Overall, it was decent, but personally I probably wouldn't go again. read more

I love Narrative!!! The speciality menu hooked me (forever a Banana Cream Latte addict), but I love their classics like the Cuban Café con Leche as well. They have a devotion to the craft of making great coffee; their apple cider cold brew at Halloween was unreal. Drinks like this are so unique and leave a mark! The atmosphere is also wonderful. I can come here seeking a peaceful work spot or bringing a friend for a fun coffee date. The baristas are kind and helpful as well. I am new to the community, and Narrative has been a big part of making Naples feel like home. It was the first place I went the morning I moved here a year ago, and I have made so many special memories here since. If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing out! read more

Love to visit narrative when we come to town! The coffee and matcha is delicious, the employees are awesome people. The vibe is cute also a good coffee shop if you're looking to do some work. Matcha - 10/10 Vanilla late - obsessed Those are our go-to orders, we've tried others (don't remember the name of the drink) but you can't go wrong here. The coffee is great read more

I had a regular coffee and a breakfast sandwich. The coffee was watery and the only low calorie sweetener they had was Stevia which has a terrible taste . The sandwich was served on toasted white bread and was flavorless and dry. My wife and daughter had specialty coffee's which they enjoyed. I will not be returning. read more

We ordered cafe con leche with the house made vanilla syrup, one iced and one hot - 10/10 recommend. It's super cute on the inside, great for studying or getting some work done. The staff at the counter were super friendly and helpful. The coffee itself is fantastic, very strong flavor and just sweet enough to take the bitter edge off but not overwhelmingly sweet, even with a pump of the vanilla syrup. Will be back next time we're in the area! read more

Went inside to try their coffee for the first time. Had my daughter with me, who got a cup of ice cream right before behind the store. As I was in line deciding on what to order, a staff came up to my daughter and told her "you can't eat ice cream in here" and ask her to leave/wait outside. She's 11! Really?!? I wasn't going to tell my daughter to wait outside by herself. I didn't have the chance to order my coffee with that kind of Service! Do Better! read more

Flapjack latte was AMAAAZIIING. Great vibes inside, but there was a DJ this day so it was a little loud.

Still have this shop high on my list because their coffee is excellent. But their pastries are soggy and service is spotty. It's surprising to me how often they don't get my order correct (I get a black coffee), tables are not clean, and the restroom is pretty dirty. read more

I ordered small cappuccino. It came in a little paper cup. Practically no foam or anything. Tasteless. I paid more than 6$ for it. Very sad.

Everyone's taste in coffee is different and despite the various glowing reviews we just did not enjoy it. Not sure if it was the homemade lavender and vanilla syrup or the oat milk used but something just did not work with the coffee. There was also very limited breakfast options so we had to go elsewhere to get pastry or baked goods to complement the coffee. If anything maybe just get coffee with regular milk and skip the various homemade syrups. read more

Best coffee in Naples.. I've searched and sampled them all and this is the best. Its an extremely pleasant environment also. read more

You can never go wrong with any drink from Narrative! From their Cuban coffee selections to matcha to their specialty seasonal menu, I'm always impressed by the drinks here - to the point I can no longer drink Starbucks coffee now (maybe that's a good thing!) They also have a good selection of bites - I've tried their breakfast turkey sausage sandwich, croissants, and the breakfast burritos and they are all great - but hands down the burritos are the way to go! I've also been here during the evening and ordered wine from their wine selection too and it was great to listen to some live music outside and enjoy a glass of wine while we waited for our dinner reservation. Definitely lot to choose from here and I love the energy! read more

Stopped by Narrative on our way out of Naples. It's located in the Mercato shopping complex. Plenty of free street and garage parking. The shop is really nice. The space is bright and airy with minimalistic vibes. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Great for working. The staff was friendly, helpful and patient with us, especially since we had a pretty big group (7). My group ordered four cinnamon honey oat milk lattes, a cold brew and a pastry. I try to get a cinnamon honey oat milk latte wherever I go and theirs did not disappoint! My group loved it, too. Great balance of cinnamon and honey. Delicious! read more

The coffee is good but the inside is more of a work from home office space place. 80 percent of the tables are taken by people on laptops and phone calls. If you just want to buy some coffee and/or food and find a table to sit down, I would look elsewhere. read more

Narrative Coffee just dropped three new drinks in time for summer. We've been here a total of 6 times now and this was our second time trying these new drinks. I couldn't leave an unbiased review last time as I needed to try the drinks again to make sure they were good and oh man are they good! My wife always gets the Havana drink. Last time I got a pour over so no new drink order BUT I did get the Coldbrew lemonade and I have to say, it's robust, quirky and it had everything I liked about it! The Havana is sweet, strong and enticing! I think I can safely say that Narrative knows their coffee, knows their flavors and knows their brews, too. Definitely worth the 5 star review I gave them months and months ago. read more

This is a cute coffee shop located in the Mercato shopping plaza. It is in a 1,300-square-foot space previously occupied by a Second Cup franchise location. Narrative is owned by Caleb MacPherson who started off his business as a wholesale coffee seller in Cape Coral. Caleb has worked in the coffee industry since 2010 and he moved to Fort Meyers from Canada. He started off roasting coffee has a hobby but in 2016 decided to make the leap to a full time business. The name Narrative refers to how the company wants you to know the story of how your single-origin coffees evolve from seed to cup. This is Narrative's first retail store. They offer their own cold brew, nitro cold brew, and a mobile espresso cart for events. The store has plenty of inside and outside seating for everyone who wants to work while getting a java boost. Outside are umbrella covered tables and couches while the inside has three floor to ceiling windows which lets in the natural light. It is very bright and cheery space, accented by greenery. You place your order inside at the counter and I requested a cappuccino, $4. The foam was nicely decorated and it was strong. It was exactly what I needed to power me back across Alligator Alley. The only slight disappointment was that it was served in a paper cup. I would have appreciated a real cup. Other than that I would definitely recommend them for your next caffeine fix. read more

This place was an all time favorite. They must have sold. Coffee drinks don't compare. So sad about it.

This place was great!! Despite the fact that I walked in 10 minutes before they closed the staff were super friendly. I got a iced coffee with a espresso shot and it was super strong I loved it. Also if you are looking for something after dinner please come here and get the cubano coffee it was amazing!!!!! It's pretty much a couple of espresso shots with some sort of milk on top, tasted like desert yummm read more

Great place to meet up read more

One word to describe Narrative Coffee Roasters? Legit. In other words, this place is the real deal. I find that a lot of coffee spots have a tendency to focus more on "Instagrammy " drinks, but there is a clear focus here on quality coffee beans and brews. First off, loved the atmosphere and ambiance. Very modern interior and a relaxed setting. They are situated in a beautiful location. Great place to walk around before, during, or after your coffee. Ample seating too, so you don't have to worry about fending off caffeine deprived people of their seats! (Always a plus) The baristas were very friendly and knowledgeable. Knew their products well and clearly cared about craftsmanship. They provided a great recommendation for my friend, who isn't an avid coffee drinker. He felt very comfortable and welcomed. They temp the coffee and pour the shots right in front of you. It's always nice to be a part of this process. I had a black Mexican Honey Roasted Drip Coffee. I was given a full run down of the beans origin. That was really cool! The drip was very nice. Not overly acidic or bitter. Some subtle sweet notes from the honey. Very smooth. Roasted well and not burned. Very nice aftertaste. Moral of the story - if you want a legit coffee spot, Narrative is a must! read more

GREAT COFFEE & ATMOSPHERE! *heart eyes* I am so excited that there is a new coffee shop in Mercato finally! The grand opening yesterday, Friday, June 5th. There was a decent amount of people inside (socially distanced) that seemed to come in waves consistently. I wasn't sure of what to expect, but I told the barista that I usually order a caramel macchiato. They only had the flavor mocha today, so I had an iced mocha. Glad I tried out something new because it was delicious!! I talked to one of the baristas and Caleb (the founder, co-owner, and GM) who said that they are going to be getting lavender flavor next week as well as vanilla flavor in the future as well as introduce seasonal flavors. You can taste the difference in the flavor the this is high quality coffee and high quality syrup flavors. There is the option of regular whole milk or oat milk. This is definitely the place to go if you are a coffee person. The different selections of coffees here are described like you would describe a fine wine talking about the notes and flavor hues. If you are dead set on only getting your vanilla skinny latte and noting else, I would recommend going somewhere else. Come here with an open mind to trying something a little different than you might be used to. All the cups are served at the coffee bar without a lid, but there is a little station near the front door entrance that is stocked with lids, creamer, sweetners, and some toppings. For all my people who like their nitro cold brew or like their coffee black - this is your new place for some great coffee. The atmosphere is open and welcoming for everyone. People are studying, meeting for a coffee date, grabbing a quick cup to go, or just in gym clothes treating themselves after a workout. The decor is modern and very clean, great addition to the mercato vibe. Excited to see how they grow here! read more

Oh my heavens! The nitro cold brew is served perfectly smooth, creamy, chill like it should be and the flavor. Seriously if you are or even aren't a coffee drinker you MUST come try the Nitro. You won't be disappointed. But hey don't take my word for it trust yourself once you order it and let that first sip touch your lips. read more

My favorite local coffee roasters! I've been coming to this coffee shop for four years. It's located inside the Mercato plaza. If I have an extra time before work to get myself a real coffee, I would come here. During the high season time however it's always packed. They take no cash, cards only. So plan accordingly. The staffs always show kindness and always consistent with their service. I always get the latte with oat milk. They also have selection of pastries and other sweet bites. Merch also available if you want to rep them and show support. I'm glad we have this in naples. read more

Cool atmosphere but that's about it. Espresso taste like soap almost. Latte with an extra shot of espresso and the only thing good about it is the consistency of the milk. Tasted odd like the espresso was mixed with soap or something. Temperature was slightly warm, perhaps rather than "being a hip barista" going by touch, use a thermometer instead. If I wanted to get a "I'm cooler than you vibe" from some tough barista I'd just go back to Starbucks. read more

LOVE this place! I really like how they have season drinks available. This fall one is delicious. I wish it could stay year round! The service is great. I also had a sausage and cheese sandwich for breakfast but I wasn't a fan. Regardless, the coffee is top notch!! I wish I had this in Fort Lauderdale! read more

I came here for the elite Yelp event. This location is way out of my way. But if I ever find myself in Naples again, I'll swing by here. It's in a little cute shopping center like mall. With parking garages and side street parking. It's very fresh inside, like everything is white with simple decor. You see customers on their laptops working. It's a bougie type place. Some say California vibe. I can see that. I ordered a latte. With oat milk and vanilla. It was really good, and it did hit the spot. Employees were nice and helpful. Cute place. read more

Quality coffee. I got a cold brew with oatmilk and it was pretty good! It made me jittery though which is good and bad. My mom got the iced latte with whole milk which was even better honestly. Vibes were immaculate! Super cute, trendy, take your insta pics here if you're into that. Pricey but worth it if you go with the intention of treating yourself :) read more
