    Stopped in this past weekend before walking around the Palafox market. I ordered a matcha latte with coconut milk and pistachio syrup. It was very good matcha, you can tell they use quality matcha powder. My sister got the cookie butter latte which she loved! My niece who is 8 months old enjoyed the "lil rex" with strawberry.

    I'm gonna be honest... I only found this place because I was walking to Fosko's x) But I am ALWAYS looking for smaller and/or lesser known businesses to support, so I decided to try it. First, the people are great. I had the pleasure of interacting with multiple employees, all of which were so friendly. I was welcomed in immediately, which was such a pleasant experience, especially when you're used to almost being ignored when walking into the bigger, busier shops. The vibe in here is so chill and romantic. Easy background music, warm lights -- "inspired by European cafes and old Hollywood movies" was the inspiration, and it couldn't be more accurate. Multiple little nooks for you to sit down at. I got the iced chai tea and banana bread, both of which were delicious. If you're a student or you work from home and are looking for a new place to enjoy your work days -- REX IS IT.

    Great coffee, friendly service, and a relaxing environment with WIFI. A nice spot to relax and enjoy a moment during your day! There's lots of modern comfortable furniture to sit, bring your lap top, and get some work done while sipping on a cup of deliciousness.

    I've been on vacation in the area for about a week now. Tried multiple coffee shops that seemed really popular but found them all disappointing. I suppose I'm a bit of a snob and want my latte well made. I stopped by here and noticed the good reviews online. It was excellent! The people working were nice, and seemed to know what they were doing. I make lattes at home myself and am a former barista, and noticed they did it all right when I briefly watched them make it. It was delicious. Highly recommend

    Great new coffee shop downtown with the most Delightful of spirits serving you! They also have THE best espresso never consumed!

    Such a great spot to grab some coffee and a snack. I loved their nitro cold brew. We also got their Latte which had a really good flavor.

    Brilliant concept for the Java lovers and liquor imbibers alike…read more The interior is luxe by Pensacola standards. Large overstuffed pin cushion leather sofas. Coffered ceilings. Exposed, real old brick that's from god knows when. Lots of copper old fashion coffee roasters. Bespoke bar. I dig the vibe and haven't even tried the patio yet. The Irish latte was delish. The whipped baileys cream on top delightful. My husband had the French 75 which was mildly citrus in such a pleasant way. Zero burn or bitterness for a straight black coffee beverage which impressed me! We had an omelette and the blueberry muffin. Omelette was tasty, fresh, hot and had ample cheese and ham. I liked the Dijon topped on. The muffin was really extra. It was large and it was covered in coffee cake sugar kind of crumble. Really big, generous serving of blueberries. It was super moist. Hate to add to the hype of this place because I admit, theres already a line out the door, but I only just recently discovered it after being here nearly a year. It's a wonderful Find and I'm already planning to make it one of my regular stops.

    I went there this morning and it was amazing the service was amazing! However the star of the show…read morewas the food I got the Carmel frappe and it was so so good but it was sweet I really do like sweet and I got a the strawberry crepe with whipped cream and it was amazing it was moist and very filling the strawberries were very fresh my sister got the s'more's crepe I didn't taste it but she said it was bus and my aunt liked it too. The interior was so nice it had many comfy couches in the first area but the had a long dining table it was so cute inside. The only thing I didn't like about my food is that it had the whip cream on it and not inside it but it was amazing and I would get it again

    Best bagel in Pensacola. Full stop…read more If you are along the water and looking for a breakfast spot, then Bagelheads may be your jam. Bagels and pastries of so many kinds plus phenomenal breakfast sandwiches and so much more. Almost everyone loves a good bagel, and they even have some gluten-free options (with some qualifiers). You can get a number of cream cheese options or other toppings, and their lox has that phenomenal smoked flavor. The Lox Works, complete with cream cheese & capers, can be done on your choice of bagel. In fact, any of the breakfast sandwiches can be done how you want it, and there are literally a million combinations. There's plenty of seating inside & even outside, so you can enjoy the view of the placid gulf as it laps up to Pensacola Beach while enjoying your breakfast. Bagelheads even offers their own roast coffee blend, called 'Mac Daddy', and it's a very robust cup of coffee. Self-serve coffee runs you $3.50 & you can get a dozen assorted bagels to go for $20, which will make whomever you bestow them upon very happy. You can even drive-through! Great local small business with an outstanding offering, great service, and a great brand.

    Craving AWEFUL food and even WORSE service, then come to Bagelheads! I swore after seeing the bugs…read moreand dirt that I'd never return, but lo and behold figured I'd give it another try after the "revamp." Spoiler alert...just as bad!!! Bad doesn't even begin to describe this place. Want to see the dumbing down of America on full display...just come here to watch the employees in action. Ever wondered what food service looks like without management...again, have a look here. In a tale as old as time, order was misplaced, food was cold, and no shits by the staff (other than a piss poor attitude) were given. 20 minutes for cold egg bites and a toasted bagel (that wasn't toasted) with butter (not melted), all for only having 2 people order in front of me. Coffee urns are never changed out, and always empty and/or cold. The only this they're able to do consistently well is to turn the iPad around when paying and expect a tip! Save yourself the time, trouble and money...GO ANYWHERE ELSE!!! There are too many good eating establishments in this town to continue supporting this miserable, pathetic excuse of an eatery. It used to be great, but has changed for the worse.
