Curia On The Drag

Curia on the Drag is one of my favorite cozy spots in Gainesville. The ambiance is incredibly relaxing, made even better by the beautiful jazz music that plays softly in the background. It creates the perfect atmosphere to unwind or get some light work done. As a big tea person, I especially appreciate their wide selection of teas. The mint tea with honey is a personal favorite. It is refreshing, soothing, and just the right amount of sweet. There’s plenty of outdoor seating if you like the fresh air, but as someone who prefers indoor spaces, I find the interior to be warm, welcoming, and ideal for reading or studying. All in all, a gem of a café.

This place is so cool! If you have never been here before it is important to note that the food truck, the store, the coffee shop, and the bar— are all one business. You can sit anywhere. And the vibes are immaculate! 100% vegan menu. My vegan friend loved it, I thought the food truck was pretty good and the baked goods were amazing. 10/10 recommend if you’re in the area.

Cute coffee shop! Good coffee and a lot of options. Plenty of seating and a great place to relax or study. There is a thrift store right across the way which is also fun to go explore. Get the coffee, skip the bakery items! They have gluten free options individually wrapped but sadly they are awful. This is the one thing I wish they would improve

always look forward to seeing anthony at the food truck! he provides quick and quality service. plus he always makes the food so bombbb 😀

This is one of my favorite local spots in Gainesville! I love the unique venue and cool environment. The staff has always been super attentive and fun too. Anthony is a funny Corky guy and always on the ball. I bring all my friends here and very grateful for the vegan options

Update: Returned and attended their annual Valentine’s Day Market on a cloudy day. Enjoyed the coffee and all of the vendors but especially the art work. Cool vibe and nice way to spend a part of the day. Parking can be harrowing but would definitely return! Really only got to see this from the outside but enjoyed the fact that all of the shops are connected and open up to a courtyard to recline, eat or gather… very cool place for sure.

I accidentally found this place on my way back to South Florida and I only stopped at the food truck… and let me just say- I’m going to make it a point to stop again when I’m back next month and actually go inside the coffee shop too! I got the Baja "fish" tacos and the best yucca fries everrrrr!! I’m not even vegan but this meal was on point! And make sure and check out The Auk Market in the same lot before or after your amazing food!
