Best Local Coffee Shops in Destin & 30A
We love a great cup of coffee and it got us thinking - why not curate a list of some of the best local coffee shops (instead of the obvious go-to's, like Starbucks)? With recommendations from some of our local friends, here are few coffee shops in Destin and 30A that are worth a try!
Black Bear Bread Co
A personal favorite, Black Bear Bread Co in Grayton Beach is a great option for grab-and-go coffee, breakfast, and lunch. This local coffee shop also has a bar room that serves beer and wine if you’re looking for a place to linger for the afternoon! Black Bear Bread Co has several locations, including one in Seaside.
Two Birds
With two locations - one in Miramar Beach and another in Panama City, Two Birds is another locally-owned coffee shop to consider. You’ll find classic espresso drinks along with homemade pastries, breakfast, and lunch options. They also serve craft beer and wine.
East Pass Coffee Co.
Open daily from 7:30 am until 3:00 pm, East Pass Coffee Co. was formerly the JumpinGoat Coffee Trailer and is now located on Harbor Boulevard. Not only do they have espresso, iced, and hot beverage options, but they also offer acai bowls, smoothies, sandwiches, and toast. If you’d like to check out their “Sunset Menu” and grab some local beer or wine, East Pass Coffee Co. is open until 8 pm Thursday-Saturday.
Capriccio Cafe
If you’re looking for authentic Italian coffee and crepes (or other tasty options), Capriccio is the place to go! The owner creates a welcoming environment for locals and tourists alike. Tucked away across from Target on Gulf Shore Drive, they’re easy to find on the west side of Destin.
Amavida Coffee
With four locations along 30A, you’re probably not far from an Amavida Cafe. They are known for serving some of the best organic coffee in the area. Focusing on sustainability, they're committed to supporting local community organizations and making a positive impact with every cup of coffee.
Bad Ass Coffee
With locations in Grayton & Miramar Beach, Bad Ass Coffee is known for its Hawaiian coffee roasts. They also serve blended coffee drinks, teas, and more.
Sunrise Coffee Co
Sunrise Coffee Company is another local option in Gulf Place in Santa Rosa Beach. It serves Amavida coffee, Dippin Dots, gourmet doughnuts, and more. If you’re stopping in for a meal, they serve breakfast and lunch and are open from 6 am to 6 pm seven days a week!
Kahve & Cream
Located in Seagrove, Kahve & Cream is a relaxed local coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating. They serve Lucky Goat coffee, Pecan Jacks ice cream, and Charlie’s Doughnuts if you’re looking for a sweet treat!
Cafe Aroma
Lucky Goat coffee and Charlie’s Doughnuts can also be found at Cafe Aroma in Inlet Beach. This local coffee shop also has lunch options like pizza and subs.
Fonville Press
Fonville Press is a coffee shop, market, and cafe in Alys Beach open daily from 7 am to 8 pm. Reopened under new management in 2022, Fonville Press has a great atmosphere and something for everyone to enjoy.
