Love this place because you feel like at home. Coffe is awesome, especially I like chai latte. Music outside, many Easter European people (Personaly like Easter Europe). The most important are prices in coffe grinder. For big coup of coffe you pay only $3, while in franchise coffeshops you pay $7, which is ridiculous!!! read more

This is totally an Eastern Euro style coffee place: The coffee is yummy and they play trance. Trance! Some nights, they'll have a DJ so it gets loud. I'm not sure why this place has such bad reviews. The service is fine... The Bosnian dude is very nice and will recommend and make you some good drinks. Plus they sell Milka chocolate bars... Mmmm... Milka!! read more

I DJ here on most Monday nights. Usually a good crowd. The owner is very nice and is always willing to help you. Beers are cold and the food is good. Great atmosphere and nicely decorated inside! Very clean restrooms. read more

Giving up Starbucks for this place, loved it! Iced coffee was legit and the girl barista was very friendly, helpful on our first time in. The frozen coffee was pretty tasty too. read more

Finally visited this place and it was fun. Should have gone earlier. Great coffee and beer selection. Owner is funny and great music with live DJs. Very hipster. Will return. read more

My first time here today, was an awesome vibe with cool art on the wall. Great selection of coffee. So much cheaper than the stupid corporate Starbucks. The guy working was really friendly and I will definitely be back soon! Espresso yo self! read more

I love this place! If only Jacksonville had more coffee shops like this one, then I would be a happier girl. Pros: - Super clean - Nice staff - Immediate service. Maybe because I was there on a weeknight. - Affordable. Puts Starbucks in a shameful place where it belongs. - Internationals hang here ;) Cons: - Smoking outside. Not really a con, but the door was open so I could smell the smoke rolling inside. Luckily I didn't leave smelling like a smokestack. read more

Awesome coffee shop! Good music, well kept inside, and surge protectors for your computer. The drinks and snacks are yummy too. Free wifi. read more

One of my favorite local businesses. Great coffee with friendly staff. I love to sit in their well maintained outside seating with a coffee or beer to watch the world pass by. Check this place out....you won't be disappointed. read more

Horrible coffee- not clean. 2 shots of espresso in a lg latte? Weak. Stay away!

Decided to try this place for the first time. I got hot mocha with crema cake This place is very chill and family friendly. Also if you want to go get coffee other than the usual Starbucks and you're around Southside and Baymeadows, this will be the way to go. read more

The staff is so friendly and they know my order as soon as I walk in...even when there's a line, once it's my turn my drink is always ready before I even order! That's service. There are desserts however I've never tried but they do look delicious. Try this place out, support local businesses!! read more

I usually stop in here for some delicious coffee after a great dinner at Manoloun right next door. I really like this place more specifically because it is NOT a chain establishment. I prefer to frequent locally owned businesses. The coffee is always very good. The prices are very fair. And the pastries are yummy. They do serve alcohol (I think beer, and maybe wine). They also sell coffee by the pound which is very good. read more

I was very excited about this place when Google Explore suggested it. My main issue is with customer service. While the employees strive to offer professional and friendly service, the owner can be disrespectful at times. I feel like the owner doesn't take seriously certain types of customers, even though I ALWAYS tip according to the amount of money I spend. I aim to support local businesses, but I find that the drawback to smaller mom and pops shops is that they can be inconsistent either in quality of products, logistics, and/or service. When something happens, there are no proper channels to address issues, as opposed to a corporate chain where they often have a 1-800 number available for customers. Although the coffee does taste good, the lack of consistency in customer service bothers me. I have a demanding job in IT. When I go to a coffee shop I want to leave relaxed not pissed off because of poor service, especially when provided by the owner. I've been coming here almost daily for 2 months, but I won't be back. I am disappointed. read more

I love this place. I usually spend3_4 afternoons a week. The people and atmosphere are great. Anything you need is here.

nice prices that's for sure. and I like the coffee selection of light, mid and dark roast.

After a small eco debate with myself, I had to subtract for styrofoam but it was a mental battle cause this is a cool java joint to get your caffeine on. Such friendly service. I would up here after the Sippers travesty. My americano is perfect and I was allowed to portion my own cream. I love the Euro gay bar dance vibe in the early morning that mixes perfectly with Arabic repartee. Do not miss! read more

I had a iced double cappucino, it was foamy and delicious and made very quickly. I will be returning for my specialty coffee drinks.

The chocolate mint latte was great and the tiramisu was even better! The guy that owns the place was very friendly and made our drinks himself. Highly recommend. read more

My husband and I absolutely love this place!!! We're from Miami and we're used to the amazing Cuban coffee (especially my husband). He goes here I believe every single day because they come really close to our beloved Cuban coffee. Please try it, you won't regret it!! read more

If you're looking for a coffee house with the most welcoming staff and delicious cake as well as sandwiches that leave you begging for more, than this is the place! Sometimes when i come to coffee grinder i manage to make a friend or two because the environment is very welcoming :) definitely recommend the place! read more

What a nice establishment with an extremely welcoming vibe. My first time here for lunch and am extremely pleased. I didn't know what I wanted and I like to converse with employees to see what's good and the employee had no problem talking about what iced drink and sandwich I'd enjoy after I expressed what I usually like, and they were spot on. I'll be back to experience the breakfast and nightlife here. Disappointed it's taken me this long to step through the door. read more

Very euro, laid back but funky and great quality coffee.

I can sit here for hours and read or hang out with friends on the couches. It's got a relaxing atmosphere to it. I love their lattes and the tiramisu is my favorite! The people that work there can hold a conversation with you and are very personable. I love this little coffee shop. read more

Very professional inside and ready for any type of coffee you want on the ready. The girl was very helpful and even though there was a line and I waited a little bit, the coffee was exquisite and I loved every minute of my business meeting because of it! read more

Step aside Vagabound and Bold Bean! I've just found my favorite coffee spot of all time! This place has the most homey vibe without trying hard! Plus, the coffee, food and service is the best in Jax and I can't WAIT to take my friends here in the future! read more

Cute European style cafe. Love the lattes and the desserts. Very decently priced. Much better than any Starbucks I've ever tasted!!!!!

The coffee was perfect. The atmosphere was nice. The guy behind the counter was great. I didn't get any food, but the girls with me said the bagels and muffins were tasty. I don't have a single complaint. And they even sell Kinder and Milka chocolates :-) read more

My go-to coffee shop and #1 recommendation to anyone. The owner and employees are very friendly with delicious coffee, tea, and snacks. I come here to do my homework, meet with friends, or read a book. read more

Coffee was delicious. And they had hot tea which is not always the case in Florida. Laid back vibe. A bit dim inside so we opted to sit outside. It is very pleasant, although the vibe here is "cigar bar" so sit inside if you want smoke free. read more

The ambience is young and hip. The desserts are the best. I had the tres leches flan cake and it was so moist and delicious. I can't believe I just found out about this place. I will definitely be back again. read more

Wanted to try some great coffee , I googled and found this spot. It's nice and cozy. Free wifi and delicious coffee . Will definitely come back . read more

I've been coming here with my mom for years, I finally returned with some friends, and was happy to see that they offered Almond and Soy milk. The soy cappuccino I had was amazing! My friends also enjoyed their drinks, and the overall atmosphere of this location is so nice that I can't help but return often! read more

I love this little coffee shop. I am so tired of chains and this spot down the strip from Dunkin' Donuts is my morning go to. The girls that work in the AM are so friendly and I can't wait to try some of their pastries! read more

Love this place. The staff is wonderful and the people are friendly. This is a great place to hangout or get some work done. Every time I go I have an espresso. Love their espressos! I've been to Bold Bean and I much prefer the Coffee Grinder. Also the Tres Leche cake...mmmmmm. That is typically my reward for sitting down and working for six hours straight. I wish there was a place on the westside like this - Starbucks is not an option. I have to drive 30 minutes to get here but it is worth it. read more

I always enjoy coming to the Coffee Grinder and I for one love their cold drinks. The barista has always been extremely nice to me and I've never been disappointed with my drinks or food. This place is extremely convenient coming out of the FSCJ Deerwood campus and stopping by to have a quick drink with friends. LOVE this place!!! read more
