Great tasting coffee in a unique setting!
Definitely worth exploring all the nooks and crannies!
It's WOW Top 3 best coffee shops in town. #1 in best ambiances Pics updated 5/23
This place used to be a wonderful spot for coffee, tea, sandwiches and baked goods with a quaint sitting area. About two weeks ago however, there has been drastic changes done to the place that I am not found of whatsoever. Sandwiches have been completely removed from the menu, now only leaving the establishment for drinks for the most part and the seating/table/counter arrangements have altered as well, making it not as good of a place to lounge. Along with that, the new setup up makes it awkward to find a spot to stand in a line whilst waiting for your purchased good(s) to be ready. This was going to be a spot that me and my significant other were going to turn into our secret hideaway, but now we've certainly changed our minds with these new implementations. It's turned into another generic coffee shop. It's not a bad place by all means, but most certainly not the gem it once was.
Update 4/7/23: so glad they’re open again. The coffee is just as good! I got the purple rain, the whole latta latte, and raspberry danish. They were all delicious and I look forward to coming back!
Absolutely the best coffee in St Pete
When I was walking downtown just casually, I walked into this coffee shop! Like wuuuht!🤯💥 Why didn't I know about it more.! Coming from a Former Starbucks Barista. I absolutely love this coffee shop. I drive 30 min's to get great coffee from Crislip Cafe. 1.Great parking. 2. "Light my fire" is my favorite drink 3. Love the art decor that's all for sale. 4. I felt at home,Drinking coffee. 5. Hours on Saturday - Sunday 9:00am-5:00pm WE NEED TO FLOOD THIS COFFEE PLACE WITH LOVE AND BUSINESS.💕❤️🌅
Very good
When I tell you I am DEVASTATED that this place is closing, that's pretty much the understatement of the year. I've only recently within the last few months become acquainted with Crislip Cafe and it's among the better coffee shops in St. Pete. It has it all! Great location with decent access to parking. Good selection of affordable beverages and treats to choose from. Ample and varied seating. Strong wifi. Interesting and friendly patrons. And this is just off the top of my head. St. Pete took a major L losing this one.
Our favorite! Busy place but SO awesome. Amazingly nice employees make delicious coffees, teas & breakfast type sammie’s. This is a great place tucked away from the busy street in a gorgeous "arcade" with an eclectic mix of art, shops & if you just push through to the alley, beautiful murals! Highly recommend!
Super cute place with good espresso drinks (got an iced white rabbit). Friendly service, nice vibe.
100% new fav spot in St Pete for hanging out and/or coffee. The whole spot is a great vibe but also cozy with comfortable seating. There are games avail, indoor and semioutdoor hallway seating, all very attractive. Tried their taste of honey coffee, SO delicious. Their vegan choc chip cookie was unusually delicious. Will be back again and again
A charming cafe adorned with local art, a thoughtful music station, and polite friendly people behind the counter. Look for the iron-glad gate and venture down this historic-looking hallway for good vibes and treats!
Cool digs and tasty coffee!
Walked yesterday and passed the best smelling coffee! Had to go check it out! Ordered an iced raspberry beret and a Raspberry danish. The drink was so good I almost ordered another one! The danish was fabulous! Will most definitely be going back!
I've been wanting to try this coffee shop for months and finally did. I love the location and the outdoor seating area in the covered mall area. The one star is for the ambiance/smell inside the shop. Upon entering my senses were assaulted by a nasty patchouli smell which was overwhelming. Not everyone enjoys this hippie smell and it triggered a migraine while I ordered. Unfortunately I cannot return to this shop until they dispense with using essential oils and other scented sprays. It truly stinks. Oh, the coffee is adequate.
Great place got a goats milk soap loofah from Tarpon springs and delicious coffee. Cozy great vibe
Came here for the first time two days ago and already can't wait to go back. One of the best coffee spots I've been to in St. Pete so far. This place is extremely unique and definitely a hidden gem! Loved the whole atmosphere and vibe and can't wait to try everything on the menu!! I got the Cafe Bombon and omg I could've had 10 of those! So delicious!
Not family/ kid friendly. The teenaged manager/barista just said I can't come back because my 3-year-old was running around. Clearly she doesn't have kids. And then she lied and said he broke a door handle. I said could you show me the broken door handle? Of course she could not. This is all typical of St Petersburg. It's generally an unfriendly place.
I would give 0 stars if I could. Don't waste your time or money here. I came here to work remotely tonight because they state they're open til 10pm. I say down and wasted 45 minutes trying to log in to their wifi with no luck (and no help or care from the girl behind the counter), only to be told that they're closing at 6pm....... I have been here multiple times, I've had orders completely forgotten about, wrong orders, incredibly long wait times, and baristas severely lacking in knowledge and customer service. This was the last straw today. I will never be back and will share all of my horror stories of this place with everyone I know. Horrible.
