Breaking Wave Coffee

Love this place.
Much better than the next door coffee shop. Good vibe, they actually turn the AC on here unlike next door. Good food selection, you can have some savory options instead of just sugary foods.
Coffee actually tastes good too.

This was my first time to visit this coffee shop in beautiful Sarasota, Florida. My wife and I are in the area visiting from Colorado. The location is great near Sarasota Harbor, and parking is rather limited. I arrived this morning right after they opened, was not greeted upon entering, the person who took my order did not greet me, was not friendly, and kinda acted like I was bothering her by being here today. The inside dining room area is decent, simply decorated, clean, and the seating is hard and uncomfortable after sitting 5 minutes. They have upbeat music playing. My coffee is okay, nothing to write home about. There is free WiFi and it works well.

Nice strong, bold espresso, better than starbs
On the pricey side ($8 for 12oz latte, oat, vanilla plus tip) but they serve it nicely, have quality cups, obviously quality beans. It wasn’t too crowded which is a great thing if you have work to get done, but it also made me curious why there were three times as many people 2 shops down at the O&A roasters.

I appreciate their modern decor, simple layout and array of healthy plants 🪴

Breaking Wave Coffee was assisting at an open house Showtime Realty agents and broker attended. These two were delightful and served specialty coffees with industrious, happy attitudes. They were really great and we loved the coffee!!! They are the best traveling coffee stand in the State. Maybe the country. Loved it!!!

Mocha latte was delicious! The Aussie bite was a perfect compliment to it! A pretty smooth not too punchy with mocha and coffee tho😌 a bit hard to find parking and not too many spots to sit if you bring a child with you😊friendly baristas

Great place for coffee. Went to a couple coffee shops and thisnone had the best coffee so far. They have limited food selection but great coffee. Great place to chill and work also.

By far THE BEST coffee in Sarasota. The care and attention to detail in which they prepare and present the drinks and food is superior. The texture of milk is perfection. The espresso is dialed in every time. Staff is super friendly. I highly recommend!

Absolutely love this place! Consistently exceptional espresso drinks - I am partial to their Cortado - great staff and excellent location!

Tried this coffee spot while out and about downtown Sarasota with the kids bc mama needed a quick pick me up. Coffee was good, but what made this place even better was the barista that helped us. He was super helpful and actually played/joked with our kids. I thought he'd be annoyed with them (usual attitude we get at some places) but he was so kind with them. They had a great time just talking to him and playing coffee shop with him. Sure made it a lot more relaxing for this tired mama even if it was just a few minutes. When people go out of their way to be kind, it says a lot about them!! We'll be back and will be recommending this to our friends ➕family.

Best coffee shop in Sarasota! Excellent staff, the best coffee, love the vibe and non pretentious atmosphere. All the staff is top notch and alway friendly. The owner Rondu is such a great guy and takes the
time to get to know his customers. Always a pleasure coming here.
