Valentine’s Day doesn’t always have to consist of candlelit dinners, rose petals, and black ties. Sometimes, a low-key date with a cozy mug of coffee and the person you love is more than enough. Imagine cuddling up, or getting to know someone, while you breathe in the comforting aroma of freshly-brewed coffee and pastries straight from the oven.
Orlando is sprawling with intimate, laid-back coffee shops that will host the coziest Valentine’s Day date for you and your loved one. You can even indulge in a seasonal coffee drink, like a raspberry mocha or rose latte, to really set the mood.
Pair your coffee date with one of the FREE things to do for Valentine's Day in Orlando.
Orlando Coffee Shops for Valentine's Day
Stemma Craft Coffee Co.
Address: 328 N Orange Ave, Orlando, FL 32801
Stemma Craft Coffee Co. just opened their doors down the street from Lake Eola in Downtown Orlando this past fall. The romantic, elegant atmosphere (equipped with plush pink seating and pink mugs) truly sets the scene for a Valentine’s Day date.
This family-owned Orlando coffee shop is so spacious and dressed up in decor, perfect for lounging with your valentine and chatting for hours.
This brand-new shop also stands out from others because it’s infused with history–the owners come from four generations of coffee growers from the mountains of Nicaragua.
I highly recommend trying their specialty craft drink for a sweet Valentine’s Day treat, the El Güerito: an iced espresso with sweetened milk, pineapple, and grated cookie.
Deeply Cafe and Bottle Shop
Address: 111 N Magnolia Ave #50, Orlando, FL 32801
Deeply Cafe is an Orlando go-to. This spot has a bright, airy vibe with tons of comfy seating and natural light from windows that overlook E. Washington St. in Downtown. If you and your significant other really want to relax and keep it low-key for Valentine’s Day, an afternoon at Deeply is like a breath of fresh air.
I always lean toward their sweet iced lavender latte, especially during the spring season. They also serve wine by bottle, to make your laid-back date a little more special, and amazing pastries from Buttermilk Bakery.
This space is casual and minimalist, but ideal for taking away the pressure to have an extravagant date on Valentine’s Day and enjoy some intimate one-on-one time.
Achilles Art Cafe
Address: 2869 Wilshire Dr #103, Orlando, FL 32835
I love popping by Achilles Art Cafe in the Dr. Phillips area for an artsy and eclectic experience. This coffee spot in west Orlando stands out from the rest because the interior is decked out in local art, which visitors can purchase.
If you and your Valentine’s Day date want to switch things up a little, this is a colorful and unique space to chill out and admire some art together.
Achilles Art Cafe also hosts weekly events, from open mic night to bingo to Tarot Tuesday. You can find an updated calendar of events on their social media.
Grab a chocolate rose chai tea latte with your loved one and enjoy some live entertainment.

You can always count on Qreate Coffee + Studio to come out with distinctive lattes for the seasons and holidays. If seasonal coffee flavors are your priority this Valentine’s Day, Qreate Coffee won’t let you down.
Last year, their Valentine’s Day menu included raspberry mocha, strawberry shortcake strawberry white mocha, rozu, and strawberry milk lattes.
Spend the morning tasting their plethora of unique drinks for a fun Valentine’s date. Make sure to keep up with their social media to see their new seasonal offerings for 2023.
