Someone did great job with decorations (doors, furniture, tables....❤️) It looks amazingly old school and kinda new with the "modern" coffee bar and barn style furniture and indoor doors.
So, we had coffee and kid's drink (orange twist). Both was delicious.
The lady behind the bar is super nice. I wasn't in good place in my mind and she just made my day better with smile and perfect cup of coffee.
I'm excited to ride to the top the tower.

Love the vibe of this place and it is a wonderful location for coffee with friends. They have plenty of tables with table games and ample seating. The iced coffee I got was delicious, they have a citrus twist on many common drinks. I gave it a 4 because the selection was fairly low and with only one employee it took a while to wait for the others in line to order, pay & get their coffee because they do pour overs. I will be back.

Stopped here on a whim (and in search of a good latte) and so thankful we did. I couldn’t decide between the salted caramel latte or the orange cream latte so I ordered both. The salted caramel is my usual go to at any spot so I ordered it as a safe bet and the orange cream was advertised as a special (plus I had read some reviews on it) so decided to try it as well. Hands down the orange cream was my favorite of the two. Quite possibly one of the best lattes I have ever had. They have a special orange cold foam/whip cream they add to the top. For anyone debating trying it, I’m not usually an orange flavored kind of person but it was the perfect amount. Almost a very subtle orange taste, nothing overwhelming or over powering. Would 100% suggest trying it! Salted caramel was also very good , just more of your average (but good) caramel latte. Again, would highly recommend this spot and hoping to get back here before we depart FL! Thanks Citrus Coffee .. wish you were located in NY!

Sun Kind of Living spent a lovely morning hanging out with Aria while she perfected her barista art skills on this oak milk late. It was so delicious! It’s great employees that are passionate about what they are doing that truly make the difference. Thanks for spending the morning with us Aria!

Citrus Coffee is such a good place. I would say it’s a hidden gem! Who would think there’s coffee shop underneath Citrus Tower?! One thing’s for sure: once you come here once, you’ll be wanting to visit again and again!
Citrus Coffee is unique in that it offers a variety of orange and Florida-themed drinks. For instance, you could get a latte with orange syrup and orange whipped cream, or you could get an orange “Frappuccino” without any coffee - just a good blended drink! I believe there is an orange hot chocolate, other orange drinks, and my personal favorite: the orange Red Bull cream soda!
Idaho and Eastern Washington have a MASSIVE trend where every single street has food trucks you can quickly drive up to and get any wild combination of sodas or energy drinks. These places have hundreds of different syrups, and most famously, you can add cream to the drinks and it actually elevates them so much more! So you can imagine how good Citrus Coffee’s drink is when it has their signature orange syrup added to Red Bull and then cream to top it off. Such a good drink and you’d be missing out if you never bothered to try!
There also is a selection of snacks (granola bites amongst other things) made by local shops in Minneola. It’s neat that Citrus Coffee teamed up with these people to sell their products! Come here to shop local!
Finally, there is a ton of Central Florida-themed memorabilia decorating the shop. It looks really nice, and it pays nice homage to what the Minneola/Clermont area used to look like decades ago. You can learn a lot all while having your excellent orange drink!
I can’t wait to go back, and I hope Citrus Coffee adds some more signs to bring more traffic to the shop. Definitely put some more signs on Highway 27 so people can easily see where the store is! Don’t miss the chance to visit this place! It is awesome!!

I wandered in on Saturday when I was looking for an Independent Coffee place and was greeted by a friendly staff member. This place is unique and infinitely site specific. I ordered the Orange Cafe Latte with a hint of orange. It’s a delicious drink. The place took me by surprise when I saw they had an arcade, seating area, Clermont memorabilia, and you can go up the tower to peer out at the whole area! The coffee here is top notch, they are adding food soon. The vibe is excellent, and I will be sure to come back.

New hidden gem, Not so hidden. Lol This is a coffee shop at the base of Citrus Tower. So modern and up to date. It’s so cute inside and you can hang out on the main floor or take a ride to the top of the tower and enjoy views while sipping your coffee. Definitely a must see attraction I’ll be coming back to!

This local coffee shop is the cutest! It’s open, airy, and relaxing with plenty of space to social distance and wifi to get work done. Staff wore masks and were super friendly. But come here for their specialty, the iced Orange Cream latte, because YUMMMMM!! Holy cow, that thing is GOOD. The vibe and flavors are a wonderful celebration of Clermont’s historical Citrus Tower and citrus industry. Next time, I’m trying the Pumpkin Pie latte, with actual pie in it! 😍
