Black Gold Coffee Roasters

Always organic espresso, need I say more? They do brew some organic coffees but not daily.

I would say this spot is more for grab a coffee and go or meet with a friend and hang out session. The environment is not a work friendly space although people do work from there. There is a lot of traffic in and out and the music is very upbeat and makes it hard to concentrate on work.

As far as the coffee. My first try is always an Iced latte with caramel so that I can keep my reviews consistent. I wasn’t too much of a fan. I think the caramel had way too sweet of a taste. I do plan to go back and try a different flavor. Also, def more expensive then surrounding places. $7.22 for a medium iced latte with oat milk. Might make sense since it’s organic

They do have tables with outlets if you need plugged in. There are also 3-4 tables outside on the sidewalk.

Stopped in here after seeing it on the map. This is one of the best looking coffee shops I have seen in my travels. Talked the the owner for a while and learned more if the coffee trade industry.
Friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, and good selection of food fare and coffee (of course)
If you want a small town coffee shop feel, this is a perfect stop!

After a year in Venice we have decided to part ways and move back home. Over the last year, we’ve become good friends with the owner and the staff at Black Gold. These people are some of the most genuine and down to earth people you could meet. Not only is their coffee amazing, but their level of care and attention to detail when it comes to their customers is just a beautiful thing. We will be visiting often, even if it’s just to enjoy a cup of their famous coffee❤️

First time visitors. Service was good. Coffee is great. Inside was cool vibes. Coffee roaster, bags of beans, high and low bar seating and tables inside and out. - Iced lattes. Caramel for the wifey with all the sugar free syrups and low calorie milk options. All the flavor and calories for my "Turtle" iced latte. (chocolate/caramel). Sprites for the kids, they are not ready for this Boujee coffee yet. 😄🤣 -- Took away a star for the sprites. $3 for a 12oz can of Sprite? I almost took away 2 ⭐ stars for that. Coffee was great. The soda price was NOT! - Parent's if you are going to bring your kids "Pregame" their drinks and snacks before you get here.

I couldn’t have more positive remarks about this place. While I have only been a handful of times, their iced lattes and cold brews are two of our favorite drinks here. The food is table service but drinks are counter service. There is ample parking and seating. Beautiful art that decorated the walls. Two bathrooms for customer use, outdoor seating options, and a viewing area into their roasting properties.

The barista staff is kind and helpful. They have many options of beans, ground or whole, merchandise, pastries, breakfast sandwiches, bagels, hot and iced drinks, on the go beverages as well such as water, bottled options. They even have GF options.

We will be a return customer forever!

Coffee was good. Some people in the group mentioned the espresso was burnt. The pastries were delicious, make sure to ask them to be warmed. There was a line out the door but was served quickly.

As a coffee lover, I wanted to try it while passing by! I am glad I did. Alissa was so nice, gave me information according to what I am looking for. Got organic Honduras, can’t wait to try. I also tasted Costarían medium roast, wonderful 🤩

Coffee shop owner Gary Lauters has established a lovely coffee house with an in-house roasting service in the heart of Venice, FL.

The products are unique and of surpassing quality: smoothies, iced and hot coffees of varieties you'll likely find nowhere else, pastries, mixed coffee treats, French press made to order, truly fresh-roasted beans from around the world, sandwiches, bagels, croissants, paninis, shakes, Rishi teas, house truffles, apparel, and works from local artists. They offer gluten-free and vegan

All of the goods are made on site, so one can certainly be assured of freshness. Everybody is quite fastidious about the quality of the product and the service was particularly friendly and swift. Our serveuse, Savannah, was particularly bright, quick, and friendly.

The products all seemed amazing. I certainly enjoyed my "Bullfrog" (chocolate/mint/espresso served iced or hot). My friends raved about the cold brew. However, I found that above even the superb quality of the products they craft, the knowledge and passion brought by the proprietor was remarkable.

He was kind enough to take my whole party back to the roasting area and gave us an interesting tour and discussion about coffee production from seed to cup. When one learns of his professional credentials, it's not a big surprise that his considerable knowledge is heavily bent toward coffee. He could easily be among any number of executives in corporate coffee, but from discussion, it is plain that he has a bone or two to pick with some of the titans of the industry, primarily for what they are doing to biodiversity. In chatting with him, you'll find that personal relationships have a great deal to do with the varieties of coffee he offers. Many of these varieties are of sorts from small harvesters that don't receive much exposure from larger businesses.

You owe it to yourself to make a stop, have a chat, and maybe learn a little something in the bargain.

Been going here for years. Delicious coffee with a menu that changes often. Nice little retail to purchase coffee beans or Black Gold swag. Super friendly, crazy knowledgeable owner that was working the roaster while giving us a rundown of the business. Love going here whenever we visit FL.

Looking for the REAL taste of coffee, Black Gold is it. With fresh food and coffee beans from all over the world you can taste the culture in each sip! Don't forget to buy some delicious chocolate goodies! Worth it!
