    I absolutely loved this coffee shop! The service, the music, the vibe, and most importantly the coffee were fantastic. This place has a lot of coffee options. I chose the vanilla latte half sweet and it was perfect. They also have all of the standard coffee drinks and a few others. On my next visit I want to try the lavender latte. They also have tea and an assortment of baked goods. The blueberry scone was delicious. It was busy and bustling with activity but there is a lot of places to sit including a sunroom. They have freshly roasted beans in assorted styles and some fun but basic merchandise. I bought their stork sticker for my luggage. If I was local this would be a regular stop. Highly recommended

    A friendly smile and a lovely lavender latte. Cute vibe. Would absolutely come back if I were local.

    Chocolate coconut iced coffee

    Probably one of the best coffee shops I have visited while traveling. The iced chocolate coconut coffee is delicious and reminds me of a Samoa cookie. I also snacked on the chocolate chip banana bread which was extremely moist and fresh. The shop is adorable and the baristas are so friendly! Highly recommend.

    Wake up coffee is a cute coffee shop in Brunswick. The food was yummy and the coffee was spot on. The service was very attentive too.

    Afternoon pick-me-up
    Kristine S.

    I was in desperate need of an afternoon pick-me-up! Thank goodness that I found Wake Up Coffee close by. I ran inside and ordered a hot white mocha latte. The girl who took my order was friendly and kind. My drink was ready within 3 minutes and just like that I was out the door. My white mocha latte was the perfect temperature and tasted great! It wasn't too sweet which I really appreciated. Thank you Wake Up Coffee and keep up the great work!

    Delicious pastries

    A delightful little cafe in Brunswick. While visiting Jekyll Island, I wanted some good coffee (good coffee is not available on the island) so I headed into Brunswick. Upon entering I saw they were making their own chocolate sauce for the mocha and unloading a tray of scones from the oven...I knew it was going to be good. I ordered a Hot Mocha and Blondie pastry. First, the blondie was so delicious I hoovered it before I remembered to take a picture. I asked the nice lady if I could get a corner piece and she obliged and it was the best decision I've made in quite some time. It was delicious and not overly and obnoxiously sweet like a lot of the baked goods I've tried down here. The Mocha was rich and delicious. A perfect blend of rich mocha chocolate flavor and espresso. This is definitely worth the trip off the island.

    Wake Up Coffee is one of my all time fav coffee spots in my area. Both locations on St. Simons Island and in Brunswick are so cute and cozy. I love the remodeling they've done in both while keeping their cute & simple aesthetic. They have fresh pastries and some breakfast items like their avocado toast! I always order their turtle mocha with almond milk & whip cream hot or iced and it's never disappointed!! I love coming to get some work done, chat with friends, or solo! Such a brunswick gem and they deserve all the love

    First off these people are by far the most kind and friendly people! Second off this place is so dang adorable I would love to even live here! Lastly dang delicious coffee!! Visiting states one of my favorite things is checking out coffee shops, and this place was by far worth visiting ! I loved it, every bit of this place is amazing!

    Very cute, and the food was great! The service was amazing, our drinks and food came out very fast.

    Large Honey Vanilla Raspberry Oatmilk  Latte... robust and not to sweet AMAZING!
    Addi P.

    I got their medium honey vanilla raspberry latte with oat milk and it was so delicious- their coffee beans are so fresh you can taste it in the cup and it wasn't fairly sweet or overpowering, the perfect balance to your morning. Will definitely try again!

    Iced coconut latte with oat milk
    Sarah B.

    Boy oh boy, wasn't this a good find!! I feel as if I am a coffee connoisseur, and this was the best coffee I've had in a very long time. (And I drink it everyday). Even coffee aside, I would give this place 5 stars for the barista and the atmosphere alone. This place was immaculate in every way it could be! I would love to this area just to be near this coffee shop! You definitely should give it a try!! I got an iced coconut oat milk latte, and my boyfriend got the watermelon lemonade. I've already talked about how good the latte was, but the watermelon lemonade was a major hit too. Not too sweet, not too sour, perfect amount of watermelon flavor. I just love this place!!!

    We drove 7 miles out of the way to avoid Starbucks and get great coffee here (during our 6 hour drive up 95). It was worth the detour!!

    I can't find their menu online. I read that they have some non-dairy milks, which is great. Do they have any vegan pastries?

    They have soy and almond milk. I am not sure about Vegan pastries, I am a carnivore.

    Would like to know if they have sugar-free options for those of us whose bodies are treating sugar like poison? Ugh! Imagine that! Quote from my 103 year old nana, Bessie Alberta Gammon Johnson. Mine is "What's up with that?"

    Yes, they have sugar-free options. Vanilla, hazelnut, caramel, and coconut syrup.

    Hey, it's a small, loud and somewhat dingy seaside restaurant next to the marsh that is exactly…read morewhat you want after hanging out in the hot Georgia sun all day. The food was served fresh, they took their time to make it right, and I would call it above average as far as hole in the wall seafood places go. Our waitress Marie was not to be messed with and she knew what to do and went to do it. The guys playing live music were actually very good but of course it was way too loud for such a small room. They would have done a lot better with me had they just played their acoustic guitars without any amplification. this could be said of any Seaside restaurant though. We did have to talk at full volume to hear each other at a small table all the way across the room from the band. There is pretty much zero parking anywhere so you will probably have to park somewhere and walk to this place but it was a very enjoyable dinner with big portions of fresh seafood and it really hit the spot. The service was good, as well. Plus, it's pretty much the only place around to get any kind of seafood. We will be going back and I would recommend this place for visitors.

Server was rude and said she didn't know we were out there. We told them when we had come in. She had also made eye contact with us when she brought a guy some ice. While taking our order, she hit her vape right at our table. After about 30 minutes, we got our fried pickles. They were lukewarm and hard as a rock. After an hour and 20 minutes, our food never came, she had never come back out to the deck to check on any of the tables, and our drinks were empty. We decided to leave. When we went to the register to pay for our drinks and leave, she threw her pen, said they only had 2 people working and 1 cook, and said we don't have a problem with locals here insinuating that we were the problem.

The prices were also very reasonable for what you get. Parking can be an issue. I went on back to back days because it was close to my hotel. I ordered the same thing twice and both times it was solid! My omelette was filled with veggies and cheese. It was cooked perfectly. Even though I ordered my hash browns extra crispy they were just regular. The second day I had a biscuit instead of the toast. It was flaky and pretty good. This place needs a better jam to set it off! The coffee is served hot and fresh. The server was on top of keeping it filled regularly. If you are in the area check it out. For soft drinks and tea they use styrofoam cups. For water and coffee they use mugs and reusable cups.

I searched for breakfast spots, and chose Zeig's Cafe because it's not a chain and I wanted something made to order. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of food and the portions. I ordered a breakfast plate with grits, scrambled eggs, and toast. It was hot, fresh, and hit the spot. I literally couldn't finish everything. I ordered take out because I had a long drive ahead of me. The dining area was small but quaint, and had plenty of seating available. The waitress that took my order was sweet, accommodating, and made sure that I had plenty of napkins, cutlery, and jelly/butter in my bag before leaving. When I'm in town I wouldn't mind dining here again with a friend and trying out their lunch options, because I was so impressed with their breakfast menu. Definitely recommend checking out this local place. Breakfast did not disappoint!

The waitress was very friendly and professional, and seemed to enjoy her job. The restaurant I have to say was clean well organized, and had a very comforting ambience. Almost like a home like feeling. Listening to the team jovially talk to each other other made you feel that you were at home. I will start out talking about the broccoli salad, OMG, that was outstanding! Though the portion was on the smaller side, the flavor was rich! I had the two for two for two breakfast, which was the two eggs, two pancakes and two strips of turkey bacon. The pancakes ice would say we're very good and of course you can't go wrong when you do eggs correctly like they did. My aunt had some type of pancake that was made into the shape of a bowl and that was phenomenal. I wished I had gotten that. My uncle's egg white omelette was overfilled with fresh vegetables! It looked outstanding. Overall, I would definitely drive back for this restaurant

Unfortunately, our experience with a relatively new server fell short of our expectations. The manager attempted to make amends but the damage to our experience shaded our perspective. Training is key to customer service and attention by management is necessary but as what typically happens when service suffers a manager becomes consumed by other aspects of operation, then failure occurs. This is a dangerous trap for operation that must be avoided. Sometimes so many problem areas occur but first priority should be focused on the front of the house where customer impressions and experience begin. Learn from mistakes but don't lose focus on where priorities begin. Bacon quality was fatty and lattes were almost 1/2 foam for a large cup. Best of luck to this team. Concentrate on improving your dining experience offering.
