My husband and I stopped in for drinks and immediately the atmosphere was amazing! It felt cozy and at home. Lots of menu options, but I went with the turtle mocha iced latte and it was PERFECT! Reasonably priced and super friendly staff. The deck of the adjacent Unwine’d bar is adorable and a great place to enjoy your drink listening to live music. Definitely on our list of favorite Surf City spots.

While I only had the iced coffee here, it was so good. Place was bright and cheerful on the outside and inside. Staff was super nice. They offer a lot more than coffee including t-shirts, etc. I’ve attached a couple of photos of the menu.

A delightful place – more than just a coffee shop. All kinds of coffee and espresso, but also ice cream in multiple flavors, snacks, and the next door “Unwine” shop where alcohol is served. The patio is open, although shielded from the sun by a floating cover tarp. Light and airy. They have live music most of the time, and it is so nice to relax on their patio with coffee or such, and listen to the music. I highly recommend this place. We have been here twice, and will be back again soon!

Stopped here three times while bicycling in the morning during our vacation. Staff is super nice. They are quick and knowledgeable. Drip coffee was pretty solid. Great outside deck to kick back on and enjoy the beach mornings. We stopped back in later in the week on our way to dinner and got beers — bartenders were fun and knowledgeable and super nice. Good selection of drinks!

I absolutely love this place. I come here multiple times a week. The patio is dog friendly, which I love because I like to bring my pup with me. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing, and they also have really good coffee with so many different flavors to choose from. The staff is extremely sweet, and most of them remember me by name. I also love their fresh, homemade donuts!

My family has been coming here for vacation for the past 6 years, and every year we make it a point to stop at the Daily Grind at least 2 or 3 times! Their coffee and food are both delicious! The staff is always kind, fast, and efficient also!

I love this place so much!!! Great breakfast sandwiches, donuts, and coffee. Small business will 100% have better service always than big chains so please support local businesses. I work for Ridgeside K9 and all of our trainers meet up here at least once a week for great service, good breakfast, and to train our dogs. 10/10 recommend for locals and tourists to check this place out!

An absolute must if you’re in the Surf City area! Not only is the coffee and food unbeatable, but the huge outdoor seating area is is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning by the beach. The owners are friendly and welcoming as well! Well worth the weekly drive from Jacksonville!

I am the type of person who sticks to the same coffee every time I go somewhere but, when I came to the daily grind in surf city. I have been coming back here almost everyday. I love trying there different flavors of coffee the staff are so sweet and friendly. The owner is fantastic and really takes pride in his business. If you love coffee go here this place is amazing!
