La Vela

Master blend! No need to go to a high-end bakery any more to enjoy a great coffee. They recommended a machine for my house when I asked them for advise and now we enjoy our La Vela’s Gold Blend at home as many times as we want in peace and quiet. Should have made this move earlier…

Salamon, the owner, was amazing to accodate me and make me a coffee. Their facility as roaster is nice and they do catering events and delivery. Great quick interaction and great cappuccino!

Amazing coffee! Delicious and unique creations you don’t find anywhere else! The owner is very knowledgeable and a very nice guy. He knows and understands coffee better than anyone I’ve ever met. 10/10!

leo was fantastic, coffee had amazing flavor, quality is unmatched!! 10/10 recommend

This coffee is absolutely delicious!! So smooth and creamy. Really easy and enjoyable to drink even for those who are sensitive to caffeine or acidity. The beans are so top quality that it tastes good anyway you make it - hot, cold, etc. Unlike most coffee, you can actually taste the different flavors in this blend, all of which mix together so well. Significantly better than any blend at Starbucks or Dunkin. This coffee is so good you'll want to start making coffee at home everyday!! Cannot recommend enough.

We showed up thinking this was a coffee shop but it’s actually the roasting facility for the brand, not a coffee shop. Regardless, Leonardo was so incredibly nice and immediately opened the gate to offer us whatever coffee we wanted. It was genuinely one of the best coffees I’ve ever had in Miami. Thank you La vela!

The coffee was so good!! Super fresh and smooth. They roast the beans right there, so you can really taste the difference. I liked it so much I bought a bag to make at home.

Was recommended by a friend to try their coffee and I love it. Setup a monthly subscription, first package got lost but their customer service team was impeccable and they were able to send a new package over. Great service and tasty coffee.

We are the owners of Shanti Kava bar. The bar is primarily a kava bar with coffee/espresso as an alternative for those that don't drink kava. What has happened now is people have found out how incredible the coffee is and it has become one of our best sellers. I have heard comments over and over again that we have the best coffee in St. Augustine. Not only the best coffee but the best people to work with. Can not go wrong with La Vela, I promise you that!

La Vela Coffee is so much more than a coffee roaster to us — at this point, it truly feels like family. From the very beginning, Marc and Salomon welcomed us with open arms. We had the opportunity to visit their roastery and see the entire process firsthand, which made us fall in love with their passion, knowledge, and dedication even more. Every step is done with so much care, and it absolutely shows in the final cup. The coffee itself is outstanding — rich, balanced, and incredibly delicious. Our customers genuinely cannot get enough of it, and we constantly hear how much they love our coffee. Beyond the beans, the support has been unmatched. Marc and Salomon helped us through the entire setup process for our grinder and espresso machine, and they are always there whenever we need help, advice, or troubleshooting. Knowing we can rely on them gives us so much confidence as a small business. We truly could not recommend La Vela Coffee more. Thank you, Marc & Salomon, for everything you do — we are so grateful to be working with you.

I use La Vela coffee since almost 7 months and it tastes amazing. I chose the gold blend and every guest compliments on the quality and the taste. I love supporting local family business and it’s always roasted to perfection. Thank you Marc for letting me discover this specialty coffee and for keeping such a good relation with your customers!

I’m loving La Vela Coffee—and that says a lot because I’ve never been a coffee drinker. Now I can’t wait to make my cup every morning! I’ve even gotten my family hooked on it. Not only is the coffee great, but the customer service is wonderful too. Their follow-up and quick responses truly stand out.

Amazing experience. The team didn’t just sell coffee, they taught us how to appreciate it. They explained the differences in quality, origin, and flavor in a way that was approachable and engaging, and completely elevated how we experience coffee. Knowledgeable, welcoming, and truly passionate about their craft. Highly recommend.

I have been ordering coffee from La vela for years, and their consistency, quality, priced and customer service is unparalleled. Any time I have had an issue their customer service team has immediately responded and gone over and above my expectations to right wrongs. I recommend them to any of my friends who I’ve turned on to the home espresso game. I buy their blends with every order, and enjoy their rotating seasonal single origins as well. Can’t say enough positive things about this company. La Vela is top notch.

Great find! We were looking for some good coffee and came across La Vela. We thought it was a coffee shop but it was actually a roastery. Marc showed us around the warehouse and let us try their delicious coffee.

Exceptional roasting and unmatched freshness. You can tell they care deeply about quality and consistency. Easily some of the best beans I’ve tasted.

We initially thought it was a coffee shop, but it turned out to be a distributor. Still, they kindly made us coffee, and we ended up buying a bag of fresh coffee beans that had been roasted just a week prior. Absolutely amazing! the best coffee ever!

We recently had the pleasure of working with La Vela and I cannot recommend their coffee catering services enough. The team was a pleasure to work with. They were always quick to respond, answering all our questions and ensuring everything was tailored to our needs. Since we were launching our own coffee brand, we supplied the beans, and La Vela provided everything else (barista, equipment, ice, cups, milk, etc). Their flexibility in customizing the setup really helped in keeping everything "on brand" for our launch. Not to mention that the drinks were absolutely delicious—our guests loved it so much that they kept coming back for more!

I had a meeting nearby and stopped here. The owner, Berta, was absolutely unbelievable. She showed me her roasting facility and had a wonderful employee prepare me the best cup of cappuccino I have ever tasted in my life. La Vela does pop up shops! They also cater coffee at events. Please consider them as coffee caterers for your next event!!! You will be very pleased and your guests will love you for it!

Coffee is really good, but I think your shop or catering truck is infested with roaches. Saw one come out of your catering cart at a company event. It happens, which is why it's still 4 stars.
