Finding a peaceful place to study or unwind in Tallahassee can be a challenge. But for anyone seeking that perfect balance of caffeine, comfort and quiet, Foxtail Coffee Co. might just be the answer.
Located at 1327 S Monroe St, Unit 103, Foxtail Coffee opened its doors less than a month ago and has quickly become a local favorite. The cozy shop, open daily from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., offers much more than the usual coffee shop fare. While you’ll find the familiar espresso drinks like cold brew, lattes and fresh brews, Foxtail also serves up a variety of tea options and blended drinks. Whether you’re in the mood for something classic or craving a new twist, there’s something on the menu to keep your taste buds happy.
For those who need a little something to munch on while they sip, Foxtail’s food menu doesn’t disappoint. You can grab a flaky, buttery croissant, a gooey cinnamon roll or a classic bagel. But they’ve also got heartier options for breakfast or lunch, like a bacon, egg and cheese bite that’s perfect for fueling up in between tasks. And for the ultimate treat, be sure to check out the attached Kelly’s Homemade Ice Cream for a scoop (or two) of their indulgent, creamy flavors—because, let’s be honest, coffee and ice cream go hand in hand.
As a self-proclaimed coffee and tea enthusiast, I couldn’t resist trying the iced chai latte with oat milk, raspberry syrup, vanilla syrup and a swirl of caramel cold foam. It was, quite frankly, delicious. For size reference, it was a little bigger than your average Starbucks grande, and I was happy to finish it in under 10 minutes. Each sip was a perfect balance of chai and flavor.

I wasn’t the only one enjoying the vibe. Malani Scott, a first-time customer, shared her thoughts on the atmosphere, saying it was “relatively quiet” and felt like the perfect study spot. With its serene decor, soft background music and relaxed ambiance, it’s no wonder the place is quickly becoming a favorite for those looking to focus or find a little peace in the hustle of daily life. “The variety of drinks keeps you motivated,” she added, highlighting the mix of options that keep you coming back for more.
The music at Foxtail is at just the right volume—not too loud, but enough to fill the space without disturbing conversations. Despite the shop being full, you don’t feel like you’re competing for airspace or trying to concentrate over a loud crowd. It’s a quiet haven, even when it’s bustling.
What truly sets Foxtail apart is its atmosphere. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the vibe feels more like a local hangout than just another chain coffee shop. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with a warm smile and a relaxed energy that makes it easy to stay for hours.
While Tallahassee is home to plenty of coffee spots, Foxtail Coffee Co. stands out for its ability to create a space where you can truly unwind in peace. So, if you’re in the area, give Foxtail Coffee a try. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s the kind of place where you can relax, recharge and savor every sip.
