There are some great looking desserts in the front case however I was full from lunch so I didn't try anything. Always leave something for next time they say... I'll be back to give it a try again.

We got Cappuccino and a Latte with Oat-milk. Both coffees were very good and hot. Got a couple of croissants that were warm and flaky and buttery. Good place and I'd highly recommend it.

WHO KNEW this place has been there for a while?? I am flying so fast and dodging crazy crivers coming off of Rte 41 and then wacky stuff on East Venice Road..... but there it is!!! Service was crazy warm and friendly. Felt a little short staffed based on the number of people in there. But it worked out, we are not in a rush. I drank a decaf and my wife got leaded. Really goood brew and had that diner wholesome flavor, not some acidic hairstanding Starbuck powerful stuff!! Be prepared for 'stimulation' because the cup never got cold or down below 3/4 full.... they were topping it off immediatly!!! Service for everything was fantastic!!!!! I got the Irish Oatmeal with berries : very good and almost too much to half finish, very reasonably priced. My wife (even though we had a whole cheddar quiche she made the day before in the fridge) got their quiche. She "said" is wasbetter than hers. I woudl not know since she never offered me a taste and gobbled it up so fast I did not even get a picture??? This is a VERY nice place. While there is a LOT of breakfast competition, it is now on our short list and goto for a nice breaksfast or lunch. We heard some talk of a name change to say its just not about coffee??? and maybe some dinner hours as well????? So keep checking back.

Venice Avenue coffee shop relocation…read more Sugar and caffeine make the perfect pick me up drink. Now, if you can appreciate a hand crafted coffee, I'll bet a caramel macchiato will do the trick. What's really nice is the best tasting caramel macchiato can be enjoyed right here in Venice Florida at the Coffee Café. The barista, Rosie starts your beverage with high quality fresh coffee beans, and that translates to good flavor. Made with espresso shots, whole milk, sweet vanilla syrup, whipped cream, plus a rich caramel sauce drizzled over the cream, it all comes together to nicely complement the coffee flavor. Her service is terrific and you'll feel like you are right at home. This coffee house is located just off the island on Venice Avenue. It's super easy to navigate and park east of the bridge compared with downtown Venice. This coffeehouse is a hit. So order up your macchiato or coffee of choice and definitely try one of their homemade pastries. Salute!

I met one of the owners, Linda. After chatting about her Italian background, and the Puerto Rican background of her 'chocolatier' partner--I will be back for more tasty goodies. I am very interested in the Tres Leches Cake, and my son will absolutely love the Flan. The macaroon cookies, dipped in chocolate are amazing. They also make Empanadas, Italian Cookies, CoQuito, Event trays/catering, Pizelles...so many yummy treats! I love the idea of a cannoli tray--having cannoli crusts that are not soggy (due to being pre-filled) and jars of filling (with spoons), just makes the party that much more fun. :) So happy to have found this small business and will be back for more.

Fortunately, Black Gold falls right in the middle of my territory and I'm able to stop by a few times a week. Great ownership and awesome people working here. I truly love how they support Veteran's and First Responders. Very well done! Coffee is delicious and roasted on site. I belonged to a coffee club and had a monthly subscription. Upon tasting the coffee at Black Gold, I immediately cancelled my subscription and will only purchase coffee here. The folks working here will never steer you wrong with their recommendations.

Freshly Roasted Perfection in Venice…read more I stopped into Black Gold Coffee Roasters and was blown away. I ordered an iced mocha that was absolutely delicious - you can really taste the coffee through the chocolate instead of it being overly sweet, which I loved. The coconut macaroon I got on the side was phenomenal and paired perfectly with the drink. They're roasting beans less than 20 feet from where I was sitting, and even before we walked in, you could smell the coffee from the parking lot. It adds so much to the atmosphere knowing everything is that fresh. Service was top notch: super friendly, accurate with the order, and genuinely down to earth and inviting. This place feels like a true local gem, and I will definitely be returning.
