    Southside Coffee should be on your list of St. Pete coffee shops to try. Good drinks & food, a cute patio area to sit, and super friendly/ kind workers. It's a tiny store- there's hardly room inside for a few people to stand comfortably but fortunately they have outdoor seating- but that's still only half a dozen or so tables. I tried the Mexican Mocha, as I always enjoy trying "spicy" drinks. This one met expectations, with a little cayenne kick at the end of the sip after a strong mocha taste, it was just right. Their breakfast sandwiches were also fantastic, pretty simple but that's what made it work. They had some other drink options like kombucha or mushroom lattes; I almost tried the mushroom one but just wanted real coffee so maybe next time. There is a bathroom hidden in the corner of the shop if you can squeeze in there. I will say here, Southside (Coffee) is the best side (aka coffee).

    Southside Coffee offers some mighty tasty lattes. This was our 2nd time there. Today I had an iced vanilla maple latte & my friend had an iced chocolate coconut latte. Both were full of amazing flavor & totally hit the spot. The interior is super tiny so we sat outside. Sadly we baked in the heat. The one negative about Southside is their hours of operation. They close at 1 pm. That means if you ear lunch from noon to 1, you can never drive here to get an afternoon post-lunch coffee. We would come a lot more often if they were open until 2.

    Window above the door! Beautiful. Many, many years ago, this coffee shop used to be a window store.

    This is a very pleasant small coffee and pastry shop in South St Petersburg. It's only 5 minutes from Central Avenue. The limited seating is outside and the atmosphere and service are friendly and professional. The espresso is 1000X better than Starbucks burnt roast but I forgot to ask where they source their beans. Next time! They also have some interesting and unique lattes like Mexican chocolate and French if you like that sort of thing. I'm a pure espresso man myself. Life is good with a local coffee shop!

    Everyone is so nice every time I come in. Every time I order, I get my drink within a minute or so; they are very quick! And my latte is delicious! I wish there was a Place inside to sit in study, but the place is so small. I wonder if you all will get a bigger location one day! But it is the perfect place to get a drink to go or I always see people sitting out front chatting away

    Coffee NIP

    After a beautiful sunrise at St. petersburg I was looking for a place to have coffee and quick breakfast to eat. I came across Southside coffee and decided to have Coffee Nip and bagel with cream cheese after browsing through the menu. The order was prepared successfully by the owner and I got my order in 5-10 minutes. The coffee was freshly brewed and it was hot and delicious. I loved the bagel as well as it was tasty and delicious with cream cheese spread. Loved this coffee shop.

    I love the coffee here. Just got a mocha and it tastes like real chocolate milk. They also have great gluten free baked goods for our loved ones who can't eat gluten. There is cute outdoor seating, and the service is fantastic.

    Iced French latte... obsesssed

    Southside coffee is everything I love about a local coffee shop. Even though it's tiny inside, it was extremely cozy and welcoming. My French iced latte was perfection. My best friend said her Mexican mocha was amazing as well. I would come everyday if I could, so it's probably good I don't live around the corner. The staff was nice and quick with our order. My croissant was the perfect size and fresh. If you're in Coquina Key area...this is THE place to get your caffeine fix.

    My friend lives down the street next to this coffee place. She always raves about it so we went on in. It's small but out so charming. There is four stools inside for seating and a couple chairs outside to sit and enjoy your coffee as well as any of there sweet treats. I talked to Sheila for a bit she was so sweet and very helpful about talking about the menu and the bakery items. I asked Bryan who was making the drinks his favorite drink and he said the Mocha so I got that with coconut milk and a extra shot of espresso. I also ordered a spinach and mozzarella croissant sandwich. While Sheila warmed up my sandwich Bryan made my drink. I waited maybe ten minutes as there were a few drink orders ahead of mind but it gave me time to take in the place. It was really so cute and they were so happy it was the perfect way to start the day. My drink was great robust, full of mocha goodness, plus the addition of the coconut milk gave it a bit of nuttiness. The croissant sandwich was light and flaky the spinach was seasoned and the cheese was melty. I can't wait to go back and try more of their offerings

    $9 for a small coffee. It was not a bad coffee, but it wasn't good enough to justify spending $9 on, to be frank.

    Place: Perry's Porch Server: Aaron…read moreDining Experience: Perfection This establishment kept popping up on my algorithm on Instagram, so you know what that means -- it's the Universe telling me to go! My friend met me for dinner last night and from the first interaction with the hostess, to our dining experience with Aaron, the food, and the people watching...it simply got an A+. When I'm dining out, I need equal parts ambience, aesthetics, and the quality of food that hits my palate. The crispness of the Sauvignon Blanc was beautiful. For an appetizer we shared the crispy artichokes and trufflekopita. Both are a must try! They continuously give you a mouthful of flavor and are perfectly seasoned. For our entrees, we got the chicken francaise. The bucatini it was served on was delicious. For sides, we ordered roasted vegetables and OMGGGGGGG, get the Rosemary bread. The cherry on top was our service from Aaron and his recommendations on dishes and accompaniments. Superb all the way around - we will be back!

    Very convenient location right on St Pete pier. Not the…read morelargest but does have a good amount of seating, and again giving the location, I can see why there's usually a wait. Opted for the blackened chicken sandwich with the salt & vinegar fries. The service was friendly and let me know to get the lemon aioli to dip the fries in, which did elevate them! The sandwich was good but I love blackened seasoning and I feel like I didn't really get a lot of that flavor. Overall, a decent meal for a decent price of $20. Willing to try it again!
