Lillies Coffee Bar

Goodbye dear friend,
It is with a heavy heart that I write, not a review, but a farewell letter. I loved Lillie’s coffee, while they may not have been the coffee shop I frequented the most due to location they were my favorite. They had THE BEST cubano and cappuccino; and their space. Oh man, so much outdoor seating, 2 blocks from the beach, live music on the weekends. I could sit for hours in the sun, drinking coffee and reading. It was an absolutely amazing coffee shop and a tragedy to see it go. I was there on the closing night and it was like saying goodbye to a friend that you know you would never see again.
I will miss you Lillie

Chill and welcoming atmosphere. Baristas were very friendly, and service was quick. Loved my coffee! Espresso was rich. Definitely coming back!

Always a warm and welcoming place either inside or outside on the patio in the sun or shade. If your looking for great small bites or just a great coffee beverage this place is a must and the location just works well being in the heart of everything. Get there early for great dessert selections from the counter or be there late to enjoy the ambiance of the end of day cup of tea. Strongly suggest the veggie panini

I like the coffee and desert options here. I am a vegetarian and lunch menu is not appealing to a vegetarian. I ordered a panini with olives in it, however it came out too salty.

I’ve come to Lilie’s every time we visit the Jacksonville Beach area and consider it to be one of the best coffee shops in Florida. Today I ordered an iced Breve, and I can honestly say it was the best iced coffee I’ve ever had. Like chocolate milk for grown-​ups!

This was a slice of Austin’s 6^th Street in Florida. Everyone was really nice and professional while staying true to the bohemian roots. It was so nice I had to go back twice in the short time I was in town.

Best éclair we ever had! But before topping off with the Éclair, we enjoyed the breakfast burrito, and the egg and cheese croissant with turkey… yum! Friendly fast service and a very charming patio. Indoor eating is nice too, with a trendy beachy feel… u will love it!

Went here for Breakfast with Family and my Maltipoo. Literally, the best Iced Tea I have ever had… and I’m a huge tea drinker. Also enjoyed their Iced Mocha. The muffins we had weren’t anything spectacular but still yummy. The place was pretty busy (ppl come and go quickly though), but the staff is super nice and good about clean up. Very dog friendly. We probably saw 15 other dogs while we were there and they have water bowls set out for them. If you’re going for breakfast food the list is small, but the coffee and tea are spot on. Also, it is surrounded by some cute little shops.

Had a wonderful experience at Lillies today. The coffee was good, great service, and a nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend!

Coffee is some of the best in town. I prefer it over Bold Bean. Service can be great to mediocre, just depends who’s behind the counter. Food is usually great, but my everything bagel has tasted bland a few times which is a shame.

Very solid little coffee shop in a prime location. I had a latté which was very good and a breakfast sandwich which was A-​OK. Pro tip is getting your food/​bev to go and taking the short 5 min walk down to the amazing beach. The beach seems to extend for miles and will make everything consumed instantly taste better. Make sure to check it out if you’re in the area!

Best spiced chai tea almond milk latte! SUPER dog friendly!
Aside from that, they’re very limited in their menu. I love the vibe and the fresh pastries/​bagels, but I do wish that there was a little bit more variety or substance. Maybe just one day have something like pancakes or French toast?

The salad I got here was delicious and I absolutely LOVE their coffee! The location is quaint and cute and I love that it’s LOCAL! Definitely one of my favorite places for a great cup of coffee and you can’t beat the location!

I come here every time I go to Jacksonville Beaches/​Neptune Beach! Their food is AMAZING (try a wrap or sandwich) and they have great coffee. The location is so cute and right on the beach. They have music here a lot too! If you share a photo on instagram and tag them they will usually like and comment. I think that is so important for such a cool and upcoming business, especially a coffee shop! Thanks for being great Lillies Coffee Bar!!!

Great little local coffee shop. The desserts look amazing. The 16 oz mocha was my drink of choice minus the whipped cream (approx. $ 4.50). It was smooth and just sweet enough. I was asked if I wanted a to go cup or a real mug. Nice touch having coffee in a real mug! Perfect.
I frequent Starbucks (almost daily) but Lilly’s is better. The shop has personality and a coziness that Starbucks lacks.
There are several personalities here. I’ve noticed that everyone seems relaxed and welcome. There are students studying, a couple having a business meeting, a few just enjoying each other’s company and myself. I was able to curl up on the couch and relax for a while.
There are a few other local shops nearby, too. The beach is a minute walk. There are colored lights wrapped around the palms, probably just for the holidays. Very festive.
I will definitely be coming back

Well that didn’t take long. I was was walking around and couldn’t stop thinking of the carrot cake in the dessert case! I came back and had a slice. Listen up people, they are not playing around! This slice was worth every penny of the $ 8 i gave for it. It was enough for at least 3 people. Moist and decadent!

This is an adorable coffee, ice cream, beer, pastry, breakfast, lunch and tea bar. Yes, this place has just about everything and you can stay here for hours in their comforting environment. The Iced Dirty Chai Tea Latte & Hot Chai Tea Latte are pretty darn spectacular! And the «Lillie’s» in-​house coffee cups are the perfect size. For just $ 8, you can take one home for yourself!
I also shared a Mini Pumpkin Cheesecake with my sister and it just pairs really well with the beverages we had. The guy making the drinks probably could have been a little warmer, but whatever. He knows how to make some really tasty drinks so I’ll give him a pass.
If I lived closer, this would probably be my favorite coffee & tea café. But one thing is for certain, I will definitely come back to try other goodies on the menu very soon.

Headed to Lillie’s for a meeting, and after the confusion of where the line actually started (I was informed by what seemed to be a «regular») I had a nice iced coffee in hand and back to business.
I never did find the bathroom thou.
I do love the open courtyard with ample seating… what an awesome little place to come and have a bite and some coffee in the morning.
I’ll definitely make it a point to come back and try some of the food. The iced coffee (straight black) was smooth and was a nice refreshing treat.

I am very pleased with this little coffee shop at the beach. It has a nice laid back feel to it and the food I’ve eaten here has been very good.
I ate the lox bagel last weekend, complete with smoke salmon, capers, and onions. This weekend I had the ham apple sandwich.
The latte was exceptionally good this morning, and the some of the baristas here can make latte art (heart and leaf and two made a rabbit for me) but you have to ask.
There is usually enough seating, but there is also the option of sitting in the courtyard right outside. Bold Bean is the only coffee shop in town that beats this place. Looks like this will be my new favorite weekend spot.

Lillie’s (or the new Shelby’s as some of my sister’s friends call it) is the perfect place to hang out on a nice afternoon. With plenty of seating inside & outside you have a bevy of options and if you want to stay a while you won’t be getting any sideways glances from other patrons.
They make a delicious spiced tea latte. And I agree with the barista who told me it was made with a lot of love; you could taste it! We didn’t partake in any sweets this time, but the individual cakes and the macarons (yes, they have them) looked like the perfect treat.
While the squirrels are always fun to watch, I’ll have to come hang out with my new friend Lille when I need a day away from my normal office.

I love going to Lillie’s and I recommend it to anyone in the beaches area looking for a morning pick me up in the form of coffee… although they also offer mimosas and wine!
I’ve met some pretty cool people while sipping on my favorite drink (Iced Chai Tee) and eating my favorite breakfast (bagel with lox & all the fixin’s)!
I have yet to have the opportunity to come in the evening and enjoy the live music in the courtyard, but there is no doubt in my mind that it’s worth a stop in!
I love supporting this local business and I’m sure that if you try it out you’ll be a regular in no time!
