Amavida Coffee Roasters

Amavida has always been a seaside staple, and after their unfortunate move to the edge of central square, they still uphold their wonderful quality and fast service. I would say they rank exceptionally high in the available coffee options, however their breakfast and seating options fall short of the new black bear coffee location near by. I think they are still well worth a visit and I encourage visitors to try their donut truck out front too!

Recently discovered this coffee shop, and I’ve got to say, definitely one of my favorites. Great coffee, and even better customer service!

Great place to bike to in the morning. Everyday we wake up, I bike here to bring back breakfast for the rest of the family. They have great pastries and even better lattes. I haven’t found something on the menu I didn’t like. Highly recommend to anyone looking for convenient but delicious breakfast and coffee.

From the outside, the shop looks really pretty, that is the only positive thing I can say. I ordered an espresso for over four dollars, so one might assume that (as it is my most expensive espresso so far) it has to be the best espresso in the world. Well, I couldn't be more wrong. First of all, the espresso came in a paper cup, secondly, it was even with a lot of sugar undrinkable, definitely the worst espresso I ever had. Worst of all, it didn't even wake me up. I don't know what I drank there, but it surely was not a real espresso.

I’m Italian so I know how an espresso is supposed to taste. And I’ve actually had so many bad espresso in so many countries. But I’ve never had one such terrible as here. At least the cappuccino decoration was pretty nice. It costs around 4 dollars and it’s served on a paper cup, just to say.

This place is awesome! The staff was extremely friendly, the pastries were fresh and delicious, and the coffee was heavenly! The atmosphere is really chill, it's a great place to hang out and drink a coffee near the beach.

If you're looking for coffee I highly recommend you head down to this place!

Cool coffee shop with super friendly and service oriented staff. The place was clean and COVID conscious. We had breakfast and coffee and all items were delicious. From their quiche to croissants to avocado toast to iced lattes, all were tasty.

Craft coffee is important. When you combine a group of individuals who take the craft seriously with a roasting setup and a vision to rise above what’s accepted as common, this place is the result.

Proper shots, nitro cold brew on tap, local kombucha, and a serious commitment to quality.

Adding to my Craft Coffee map of the universe.

Fantastic shots. No complaint there.
Label on muffin: $4.50
I was charged $5 plus tax.

I challenged it. The man said “it’s inflation”.
I protested again and eventually got a free muffin, but with no apology.

That amounts to stealing to charge more than the menu or item says.

Watch out!

We were here for a 4 day stay and didn't find great coffee until here! on the 4th day! We'll be back in the morning on our way out of town! The baristas know what they are doing so listen to them. The Ethiopian Worka pour over was no less than amazing and the ham and cheese croissant made my tummy do a happy dance. Can't hardly wait to get this bag o' beans home to brew.
