Bay Island Coffee Company

Super good coffee! Got the iced latte with the cinnamon bun syrup and oatmilk. Even with oatmilk it was really good! Also ordered the breakfast sandwich in an everything bagel 😋, a frozen coconut coffee (also really good!), and a fruit smoothie. One of the top best tasting coffees I’ve had, probably better beans or roasting. The other reviews did not let down. The guy was rude 😂 But not so much, not in a way that we felt attacked. Seems like all they hire are rude people 😆

The food and coffee is usually great and the service is fast, but every time I come here our order is messed up and whoever is working has a bad attitude. Why would I pay to feel like an inconvenience if the person working doesn’t even stay at the window to hear the order? All I say is “Can I get an iced latte-“ and they start making it before they even know I need decaf or oat milk. Today was the worst interaction. Ice lattes didn’t fill the cup and are lighter than any other time we’ve ordered. They taste like milk and sugar. They were out of coffee ice cubes, which would be perfectly understandable, but the person didn’t tell us that as we ordered, so when our coffees didn’t have it, it gave me they impression they hadn't been listening at all. Overall poor service.

Super RUDE!!!! service… the lady attending at the window was not nice at all .. can’t deny she gave us our food fast but kept throwing the window closed in our face … mad face … not even a thank you or have a good day and her tone of voice was like I was doing her a favor NOT COMING BACK HERE rather go to a place where people are happier for their costumers…

My wife and I decided to stop by and check out the coffee shop on our way to drop our kids off to daycare since we pass it all the time and we are sure glad we did. I mean it when I say that the chai tea I had there was the best and I’ve even had it in India. The wife had a breakfast sandwich that was supposed to be a croissant but ended up being a bagel but weren’t disappointed because the bagels there are just as good as the ones we would get in NYC every morning. We will definitely be returning minus the kids so we can spend more time enjoying the drinks, food, and company together.

Great coffee spot if you enjoy friendly staff and have some patience. I absolutely love their chai latte and their breakfast sandwiches are super good. This little place fits about 2 staff members so please be patient if you see a line at the drive thru. Overall very kind employees and delicious coffee to start your day!

Absolutely my favorite coffee in Gainesville. Service is limited to the fact it is so tiny, so it’s definitely not a place to go if you don’t have a minute to spare. Wait time can be anywhere from 10-45 minutes in the drivethru. Yes, I have waited almost an hour before on a Sunday when I had nothing else to do. I love the coffee that much.

Delightful little stall in the middle of the parking lot. We were intrigued so we ordered a hot chai, a smoothie and a breakfast sandwich and WOW everything was delicious! The chai is just the right amount of "seasoning" and was a generous portion for the price. The sausage egg and cheese croissant was tasty and cheap, and the Maui smoothie was PERFECTO! What a pleasant surprise and we will for sure stop here next time we are in the area. Be wary it's just one person so bring your patience.
