Curia on the Drag is a wonderful reinvestment of an existing space! Actually, it's an eclectic artistan wonderland located in plain sight on NW 6th street. With a mixture of coffees, teas, wines and beer, how could you go wrong?
The service can be a bit pedestrian at times, but few would mind too much - your wait can be counterbalanced with a tour of the palm lined main entrance, boutique coffee deck or the main interior space, which is an eccentric fusing of Art Deco and Thrift Shop Couture.
Overall, Curia on the Drag is one of the best coffee shops in the city, where parking is seldom an issue. If you're looking for a beverage - caffeinated or otherwise - you'd be hard pressed to find a place with more style and nuance.
Did I mention they have olive trees and a Velociraptor in the parking lot?
Hands down the best plant/based food I've ever experienced. Creative, flavorful, we tasted 6 items in the menu - LOVED them all! Even my 11 year old thoroughly enjoyed his Baja tacos. I over ordered - but guess what- we finished it all! We also loved the secluded and private driveway and grounds which included a coffee shop, and a small art shop.
This is the most beautiful and innovative place in Gainesville with real quality art, food, coffee , wine and talented staff.
A well thought space serving our community with heart and soul.
Love it!
I have a lot of good to say about this place by seeing how many mutual friends like this place before I even had the opportunity...
go vegan or grow home
Amazing vegan food!!!! Had the Villy and mac and cheese. Definitely the best vegan philly I've ever had. Will definitely be back. 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱💪🏼💪🏼
Best vegan food in north central Florida. The comfort food, like mac & cheese, is especially yummy. The BBQ jackfruit quesadilla is my favorite.
Coolest spot in Gainesville .. the atmosphere is Amazing .. a great place to get grounded around some conscious people �
I think it is great. The vegan Jackfruit Quesadilla was to die for!!!!! The Quinoa Black bean tacos were yummy!
Best place in the world. Loved every second of working in the kitchen. �� gonna miss you all very much!
This place has the best atmosphere and the most amazing food. Perfect for a relaxing Sunday lunch. I will be going back regularly!
This place isn’t just a coffee house or restaurant or bar... They really seem to care about their community and are constantly having different events happening. From yoga classes, to 101 drawing classes, to free projection movies outside! There is always something to do.
Amazing the shredded jack fruit twisted like pulled pork. I was very impressed. Best vegan spot I have been to yet!
Very cute place to get coffee and hang out or to sit down and do some homework. I got a coffee and sat for hours doing homework. There’s free wifi and tons of parking, not a ton of inside seats.
They have a cute outdoor section as we and a cool interior. Coffee / snacks are very reasonably priced and I recommend trying this out if you’re looking for a switch up from your traditional study environment
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.
Enjoyed the tea selection here and the overall ambience. Didn’t get a chance to try the coffee but would definitely give it a try on another visit. In addition to coffees and teas they also have a cooler with other drinks available.
Amazing place, amazing food! We have a very good time in this place! I recommend it 100%.
I really like going here! Such a nice atmosphere. If you are there and the food truck is open, I do recommend trying it out! The coffee place is nice and I do love getting their guava and cheese pastries. If you can’t find a study table there, you can study near the food truck area outside or the open space building next door!! There is a limit on outlets tho.
Met a friend for lunch and it was great to sit outside on the pavillion by the food truck. I got the phish tacos (baja style, with cabbage) and loaded tots - both were delicious! Love that they have so many vegan options. The coffee and teas and great too - lots of selection.
Easily one of my favorite spots in Gainesville! It’s right around the corner from our home and they always have the most unique and delicious gf/v baked goods every day- they literally are never the same, and they do it all well! The tea selection is pretty big so there is something for everyone. The environment inside the coffeehouse is super cute and outside is even more fun being connected to a great vegan food truck, a small shop and beer garden and bakery and even more!!
Pleasant atmosphere with ample outdoor seating. Tasty vegan, gluten free muffins & plenty of flavor options for coffee.
