The Happy Manatee
9908 Gulf Dr, Holmes Beach, FL
Crema's Take
“Tucked away on Anna Maria Island, The Happy Manatee has perfected the art of the relaxed breakfast destination, where homemade everything—from egg bakes to scones—replaces the usual frozen cafe fare. The vibe here strikes that sweet spot between energizing and unwinding, making it equally ideal for a solo coffee contemplation or lingering over breakfast bowls and fresh juices with friends and family. It's the kind of spot where locals keep coming back because the care in the kitchen matches the warmth of the service.”

We ate here a couple times because it was real homemade food, not frozen junk food. The breakfast bowls are amazing featuring homemade egg bake, super yummy avocado toast, and the healthiest juice around. Prices were way better than most the places on the island and you fed your family something healthy. We stopped in after lunch and tried the lemonade. It is so good!. Everything I tried here was just wonderful. kYour our go to place next year!
Such a cute spot! Great food, coffee and service!
Ok best coffee shop on the North side of Anna Maria Island in my opinion! We went to a handful of different ones over the week and I liked this one the best! The vibe was very relaxing and energizing. The owners were super. Really good coffee! Definitely not too sweet. The scone was also yummy! Honestly wish I could’ve bought some of their decor😄😃
The Happy Manatee is awesome!!! We love the vibe and the service was great. We stopped by today and tried the Coconut Bowl - it was delicious. Can’t wait to go back tomorrow and try the Açaí bowls.
Amazing scones! Great service!
