I truly loved coming here! Not only was the employee super sweet and inviting, but I love the overall environment. The menu focus more on the simplicity of coffee and teas, but I think the craft of their coffee stays true to what coffee should be! My sister ordered a carrot cake muffin which was super affordable and one of the most delicious muffins I had. It was sweet and moist and we both devoured it in minutes. It is also quite large and for under $3, you can’t beat that!I got the Tangerine Dream which is one of their seasonal items for the summer. If you are looking for something refreshing, sweet, and not heavy, this drink is delicious. I would ask for light ice but other than that, it’s not too potent, it tastes almost like a tea, but is still so good! I would definitely love to come back here!The outdoor seating area is beautiful as well and the overall atmosphere is perfect for working at a cafe. It is affordable, have a range of items, the baked goods are delicious.
How awesome that they are open 6 days a week in downtown Jacksonville? Most things are closed which makes downtown a place you dont want to go to on a Saturday or Sunday. Absolutely love their fresh bakery items and their unique coffee and smoothie concoctions. Plus there is a really nice indoor outdoor kind of space where you can sit and relax.
Quaint little hole in the wall. Had one of their specialty coffees (Killer Bee if I recall) and really enjoyed it! The pseudo indoor area is a nice place to chill with cozy brick accents. Will visit again!
Passing through on a bicycle trip, came in here on Sunday morning, barista Melissa was very helpful with info on not only Jacksonville(had never been there before), but also the surrounding area. (Tell her that I did make it to Brunswick! 🙃)
My favorite spot downtown. Their chicken salad sandwich is the best on earth IMHO. Their coffee is also top notch. Great atmosphere. A lovely break during the work day.
Stumbled on this place after walking across the river as there were no decent coffee shops southside. Beautiful coffee, very fresh roast, excellent cakes and sandwiches at a good price. Hugely attentive staff and a great indoor courtyard garden to sit in. Dont miss this place, its a coffee lovers treat.
Great coffee, lovely baristas. Best place down town for coffee !
Good cold brew, friendly staff and even friendlier customers. Ham and cheddar egg casserole hour the spot for breakfast.As others have pointed out, its a counter with a window facing space with about 3 stools, but the main seating area is a shared and open space where it seems good to chill for a few hours. If Iived/worked here, I would go here regularly.
Great staff, good price, great coffee
Great vibe. Pretty good breakfast and lunch menu. They were very accommodating, conversational, and polite. I got an English breakfast tea, caramel macchiato, and a bagel with cream cheese.
Really cute lil coffee shop with delicious every day freshly baked pastries. Tastier, healthier and cheaper than Starbucks. Definitely, recommend.
Cute coffee shop with a fun vibe! We stayed in Jacksonville overnight while traveling through and my husband found this gem. I got and almond milk latte with coconut flavor and he got a drip coffee. We both also got egg sandwiches which were delicious! Would highly recommend.
This place was phenomenal! I went mainly for the coffee because I love trying local coffee shops when Im away from home, but the reviews and menu told me to stay for lunch. First off, this is only the second place in America that Ive found that can make a TRUE flat white properly. Their baristas are exceptional. The food was outstanding as well. I had their take on the Cuban sandwich, which was on the same level as a Miami Cuban. Their nutella-banana waffle boat was delicious also! I will always come back her when Im in Jacksonville!
Some of the best coffee I have ever tasted!! The batista was nice and the coffee was 10/10 must visit again!!
Im a Jax native who has been to many coffee shops in and around the river city, and this was my first time going to Urban Grind. Will be back. Fantastic outdoor seating and ambiance
EXCELLENT ATMOSPHERE, EXCELLENT PRICES, EXCELLENT FOOD, EXCELLENT COFFEE. Dog friendly. I can see this being my new go to place.
Its an interesting space. Where they sell the coffee is more a counter than a shop. The seating is in an industrial design dim foyer of a creator style office complex. High red brick walls and a grey metal staircase in the middle going who knows where. While cool its not 100% inviting but generally a nice vibe. Coffee is self served in paper cups . Taste was fine.
Awesome! Cant do anything better, just stop... Youll be hooked!
I have gone here every day since the first time getting a iced latte !! The coffee is great, the food is great. But the thing that brings it all together is the service! I love how the man in charge sits right there and says hello to everyone. The women behind the counter are awesome! Haven’t gotten anything wrong so far ! Beautiful place, I truly can’t say anything bad about them.
Great little coffee shop. They have fresh coffee which was delicious. Better than a Starbucks.
The coffee is fine. The breakfast sandwich was dry and warmed over. The smoothie was just okay.
The best coffee shop in Jax hands down! Theyre able to do a keto iced caramel latte.
First experience here was amazing!! Love the environment and atmosphere. They have a fantastic out door lounge with shade to do school work for college students or any kind of computer work. The workers and owners were super friendly and outgoing!! I would definitely recommend their coffee and chicken salad croissant.
Absolutely great experience, everyone was super friendly and nice! The scenery was beautiful and open. If you are looking for a perfect place to have a cup of good coffee and write an essay for school this is your spot. Im defiantly coming back.
Staff are super sweet and helpful. Chicken Sandwiche was awesome!!
Cozy ambience, excellent selection, fairly priced.
Nice place. Has a nice semi-outdoor seating area that’s covered with a roof and good wifi
Really like this coffee shop.Awesome staff, super clean facility.
Great convenience downtown and excellent bakery items to select from!
Great smoothies and caramel macchiato. Nice place to sit and relax with the indoor-outdoor space.
The best coffee in the world and even better service. 10/10 do recommend, worth any drive to come here.
Ordered to make fresh Sandwch, Chai drnk, and OOHHh delightful sugurlss pastree. And stimulating chat. Thnx
Love the place, best coffee I’ve ever had. I recommend it to everyone and it’s worth a bit of a drive.
Great coffee! Loved it!
Enjoyed a large cappuccino. Fresh roasted!
The coffees we tried were good and the service was fast and friendly. Seating could be improved.
Great service! Top tier. Won’t regret spending your money at this establishment.
I was downtown today on business and forgot the 3 things I needed to have a productive day. Coffee bagel and of course a color printer. Urban Grind had all 3 !!
Asked the barista if she could repeat the menu for bagels and she got really annoyed with me and said theres a lot of things I said. Extremely rude and unprofessional
A little expensive for what it is... the juices are too sweet and taste fake.
This is a fast and dependable coffee shop with a great selection. The staff are always friendly and on top off everything, even during busy hours. Prices are unbeatable in the area. Definitely recommend this place to anyone working downtown if you need a quick, quality coffee.
Nice coffee shop
Can’t recommend this place enough. I plan on coming back whenever I can.The best coffee and even better staff.
Best Dirty Chai lattés in all of Jax. Hope the new owners will open on the weekends & receive the business that they deserve.
Good prices and very friendly staff
Amazing cold brew coffee one of the best i have had in a good while !!
Great service and awesome atmosphere.
Best place to get coffee downtown!! Love their latte’s!
This coffee shop makes me feel like Im visiting a small, local cafe in New York and I love it. The decor is cute, the seating area outside is very relaxing and trendy, and the staff is very nice. I’m not much of a coffee person so I love that they offer smoothies and teas as well. The lunch is delicious 👌🏽.
A must when in downtown Jacksonville. Creative food and drink options with friendly staff.
I like the atmosphere of the garden outside, but it was a very small shop that is obviously geared toward the business district. We arrived 10 minutes before they closed and they were not/did not want to brew drip coffee for my husband. He enjoyed his latte and I enjoy my decaffeinated iced tea, which was a nice option that is not common to most places. Not sure I would visit again but did not hate my experience.
The staff was super kind, our food and our drinks tasted great, and we will definitely be coming back! 😃
Nice coffee shop
I recently discovered this cute little cafe! I love that they have irish creme flavored syrup, yum! I did try a sandwich there and it was okay. The baristas are so friendly and there is a very cool outside seating area.
I had an enjoyable experience.I will be back
Eh.. Fast and easy. Not going to win any awards for the food or coffee. My egg salad sandwich could have used lettuce, pickle or anything else to add flavor. $6+ dollars for a plain sandwich or bagel. So basically $10 with tip for a coffee and plain sandwich or bite leaving you hungry. No thanks.I will say the customer service and the staff are very nice.
Nice, chill, environment
Yea this place was pretty cool. Small and the coffee wasn’t nearly as good as Bold Bean or Social House in the historic district but the staff was nice and it was really convenient to our hotel spot downtown.
Loved it! Really cute. The shop is kinda small but theres an outdoor area so its fine. The coffee tastes good!
Great staff, great service
Urban Grind became a part of my daily routine after the first time I went there. The service is fantastic, I always look forward to going in and seeing Stacey and the crew. The coffee is amazing and there is a delicious selection of healthy food. My favorite place downtown by far. I absolutely love this place!
Best chicken salad in downtown Jax! The Tropical smoothie is quite delicious as well. No refills on tea though.. i mean it costs them pennies, maybe a dime.
This place is great. Laid back coffee shop atmosphere, awesome staff, chilled out music, and a great courtyard that even has a fire pit (though sometimes its out of propane).We discovered Urban Grind a few months ago; but prior to that we had been here at least a year and had no idea it was even there as it is somewhat tucked into the building. Great location though if youre looking for good coffee, frappacinos, tea or lunch. They also have great prices.
Pretty good strawberry smoothie and sandwhich wraps. Solid choice in my opinion for a quick stop.
My stop for coffee on the way to work. They stay pretty busy at peak hours. Food and coffee are both top notch.
Omg! The customer service!!! Amazing! The best caramel macchiato I’ve ever had (yes, including Starbucks), anddddddddd I ordered a bagel with cream cheese! They toasted my bagel to perfection, put my cream cheese on it for me and sliced it in half! I didn’t have to worry about mess like I do anywhere else! Super cute and delicious!!!
If you are looking for olivia wilde. This is your place. Friendly and welcoming. A great way to start your morning.
Awesome coffee, lunch and snacks. Friendly staff and great service. The decor is really cool and the courtyard is there to enjoy along with your coffee!
Such a vibey place. I’m so love it. And the caramel macchiato is delicious.
Stacey and if crew are the friendliest. Terrific coffee every time and the bagels are large and filling. Not like these other bake shop that have a miniature bagels with the price of a full one. Thank you Urban Grind.
Nice coffee shop
Love the crew here. Coffee is good here! Yes, better than Starbucks! Ask about the Health Nut! And dont forget to check out their pastries!
The caramel macchiato here is very very good!
Great place! Downtown has very fee coffee spots, good ones at that. This is 1 of 2 places I go to for coffee. Expect a wait.
I loveeee urban grind, they have so many quality products, awesome breakfast, they can make almost anything happen and, their customer service is wonderful.
One of if not my only go to coffee spot when Im in the downtown area.Friendly staff. Service is quick and easy even when they are busy.
Dont waste your time... They missed my order, and stood there looking at me for thirty minutes, and never asked if I needed help. When I asked where my order was, the girl who took my order said, I dont remember you. Are you kidding!? Either shes brain dead, or I was waiting so long they forgot who I was. No offer for a refund or even an apology.I was making it a habit to go there regularly, usually when theyre not busy (10-11 am), and never once did I get the impression they even knew who I was.Such a shame. Seemed like a cool place to get a coffee...The icing on the cake was when I came out to my truck to find a $25 parking ticket! What a day Ill tell you. Lol...Either way, Im now going to Bold Bean and the coffee and service is on a whole nother level... Amazing to say the least.Id recommend others stay away too... Its not worth the hassle or dealing with the crummy surrounding anyways.Hes my beverage from Bold Bean today... I guess this is a blessing is disguise?
Awesome service! Really good savorybreakfast sandwich.
Small shop.. take your paper cup ..hope the thermal pot you chose has hot coffee..presto coffee....like going to your kitchen ...only more expensive and less places to sit.
Courteous and helpful staff. Coffee and pastries were both phenomenal. Take the time to enjoy your drink while sitting in the courtyard
Great coffee, great atmosphere. A+
Love this place! Good prices, staff is always super nice. Go here a couple times a week.
Great food and friendly staff. Fast and efficient
They gave me the wrong order and didnt have the decency to apologize after I had to take the time to bring it back. The young lady said they must have given me someone elses order, but luckily there was one more left, like they were doing me a favor. Will not be returning.
Very smooth peppermint latte. Super soft and fresh bagel. Great service.
So this place is the best thing about having appts downtown lol. I ALWAYS had to stop in every time I was in town. Best coffee in Jax in my humble opinion:)
Favorite coffee spot in downtown Jax. Great tea selections as well. Fresh bagels and other on the go lunch items also available.
