Hands down, the BEST coffee + sweetest little shop in Gainesville! Not only is it in the perfect location on the downtown square, not only is it decorated so cute & cozy, not only does it serve only the freshest, most incredible types of coffee from around the world (literally) … but it is family owned and operated by some of the sweetest humans this world has. Everyone working here is so kind and helpful in teaching you about the different types of coffee beans sold and served here and everything is incredibly delicious! My husband and I are officially new regulars here and cannot wait to come back ASAP to try everything on the menu & bring home different brands of coffee beans to enjoy at home, too! Thank you Meadowlark Coffee!

What a lovely coffee shop! Stopped in this morning to check out what Meadowlark had to offer.
Discovered a thoughtful menu with a variety of coffees from classic drip to espresso, Americano, Cortado and cappuccino. Try yours with a delicious syrup - mocha, salted caramel, lavender, honey rosemary and of course, pumpkin spice this time of year! The cappuccino with honey rosemary was an earthy, frothy delight with just the right sweetness.
There is matcha, chai and kombucha as well as hot or iced teas - both herbal and caffeinated. My steamy mint tea was warming and perfectly brewed.
Don’t miss the delightful fresh pastries. My pumpkin pecan galette was flaky, buttery perfection and the chocolate chip cookie (definitely a grown up cookie that would be perfect to munch with a creamy cappuccino) was full of chocolate chunks.
Meadowlark staff were very friendly and efficient, moving through a line of customers with smiles and getting everyone’s drinks together as a team.
We took our items to go. Indoor seating is at a premium with just two tables. So, grab your drinks before you head out to explore the Square!
Will definitely be back to try their matcha soon - and get the savory caramelized onion galette - yummm!

Stopped by Meadowlark for the first time today. Very impressed with the attention to detail with their spro, drip coffee, and overall setup. Coffee beans for purchase are some of the best. The shop isn’t large by any means but, seems to have just the right amount of everything needed to be the best coffee shop in Gainesville. If you have time and are driving through Gainesville and appreciate good coffee(by that, I mean great coffee), you should stop in! 👍. JP and the staff seem to love what they do! We were glad we stopped in today.

This is the cutest coffee shop with the sweetest little ambiance. The barista recommended their made in house salted caramel syrup & it was so yummy! It’s cozy inside with 2 small tables & lots of pretty plants- I loved it here!

An oatmilk cardamom latte here before going paddle boarding is just what we needed.
JP and the staff was extremely friendly and the home made syrups were delicious!

DEFINITELY A GO TO SPOT FOR SPECIALTY COFFEE!!!
I wish you all the best of luck! You’re doing amazing things and we will definitely stop by again if we find ourselves anywhere near the area :)
Thank you <3

Top notch!
I lived in both Seattle, WA and Los Angeles; I am an avid coffee drinker and can say with confidence in my experience that Meadowlark has exceptional coffee at par with both of these cities. This is the best quality coffee on the square and they use organic dairy! This was a big plus for me since almost no one takes into consideration the quality of dairy in their coffee drinks. I appreciated that I could choose to put a lid on my coffee instead of being forced to have the plastic.
This is now my regular coffee spot when I'm out on the square.
Thank you for an enjoyable experience and delectable drinks.
I bought a flat white breve and a matcha breve, both were velvety and drinkable right away! (Not scalding, perfectly hot)

Great experience! I got the Peruvian coffee, black. It tasted sweet and light, a very good coffee. Catherine and Reece, the two people behind the counter, were both so warm and welcoming. I highly recommend checking this place out. A cute environment, and it's right in downtown, making it perfect for a cup to go with a short stroll around the block.

The best coffee in Gainesville and the surrounding area!! The vibe and the quality are impeccable. Try the cappuccino
