It’s safe to say that Orlando has never seen a surge in local coffee shops quite like the one we have now. With so many options at our fingertips, it doesn’t matter what side of town you are in; chances are you have a decent coffee alternative to large chains.

I’ve personally spent the past year perfecting my own latte creations at home, which makes getting a latte on the go that much more of a treat, and I’m always searching for the best of the best. I certainly have my favorites that live in heavy rotation, but that doesn’t stop me from exploring what is new; and around Central Florida, that is happening quite frequently.  

If you are looking for the newest shops to open in the past year, you’ll find a list of them here. Otherwise, use this list to check more spots off your list or keep supporting your favorite LOCAL coffee shop.

While no map I create will ever be 100% accurate with every place that offers coffee, this is a great start. With this many options, there’s no reason to give your money to Starbucks.
