This is such a cute cafe. Everything is fox themed which is adorable. Got a London fog which was delicious. Also got a pesto and cheese focaccia. The sandwich was surprisingly so good! The soft focaccia bread with the rich savory pesto. So delicious.

One of my favorite coffee shops to visit. Such a warm and inviting space and the staff very welcoming. Ordered a honey comb latte which had honey and caramel.....really good. My husband ordered the hibiscus iced tea and it was also flavorful and refreshing. We also ordered two breakfast croissants. The spinach and ricotta was soooooo good. The turkey and cheese was good too but could have a few more minutes in the warmer. Still, we ate it all. Primarily indoor seating available. One table outside. Definitely a nice ambience all around. Will return!

I love this coffee shop and visit every year. I like the taste and quality of the coffee and food, plus the atmosphere is cozy and cute. It can sometimes get pretty busy, especially around tourist season, but I've always had wonderful service.

I love this coffee shop! The honey comb latte is amazing! I prefer it with almond milk. Cute decor too. You can tell a lot of care goes into the preparation and shop overall.

Went here for the first time today and I absolutely loved it! I'm very picky with my coffee shops, especially ones that I study at, because they can't have the music on too loud and they need to have enough outlets LOL. But clever cup coffee shop checked all my boxes and the coffee was so yummy!!! Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot to get some work done or just chat with friends!!

First time visiting this coffee shop yesterday - I got a really good latte. The girl who helped me; I think her name was Victoria, was so kind and patient not only with me but with the other customers as well. She helped me decide on a perfect latte combination. Overall Great coffee and great customer experience. I will definitely be returning!

I had a late afternoon business meeting there. My first time. Coffee was great. I did not try the food but my guest loved the deserts. It’s very convenient for meetings and comfortable. I will be back.

Stopped in The Clever Cup in south Sarasota for a quick bite and to squeeze in a few minutes of creative time in my art journal. Enjoyed a delicious croissant with raspberry preserves and a freshly brewed caffe. Delicious! Place is cute with an artsy vibe. I believe the owner is an artist and paints with coffee . I ate my croissant pretty quickly, sorry. But, here’s a pic of my little paint sketch to prove that yes, you can hang out and chill with your paints.
