Stopped by Artessence Coffee Shop and had the best morning. I ordered the breakfast tacos — great price, good portion, and just really satisfying. I also got an iced matcha and they suggested adding lavender… so good. Such a simple upgrade but it made it extra special. The vibe in there is just as good. There was a little crochet circle of ladies chatting away, and strangers casually striking up conversations over coffee. It just feels welcoming and easy. Definitely one of those spots you want to hang out in for a while.

This restaurant is owned by members of the Springfield community and bring the charm of the neighborhood to their restaurant. The cordial nature of the owners with the subtle upscale nature of the venue, with the charm of the puzzles available for customers, this cafe is a relaxing opportunity for passerbys. The coffee is well curated and masterfully crafted, and the food menu while limited right now excels in quality. A worthy entry to the growing Springfield community.

To walk into a coffee shop in Jacksonville that evokes the feeling of being in a New York neighborhood cafe that highlights local artists with perfectly made food and drinks is a rarity, but Artessence hits the bullseye not once, not twice, but thrice. The new ownership has helped to elevate the space and provide the community with a really spot. Highly recommend!!
