About This Place

Wake Up Coffee Company, nestled in the heart of St Simons Island at 50 Aviator Plaza, #106, offers much more than your average coffee stop. This charming coffee shop, food service spot, and gift shop delivers a uniquely warm and inviting experience that feels like a comforting island breeze in every cup and bite.

As soon as you walk in, you’re greeted by a cozy atmosphere that blends casual island charm with a welcoming local vibe. The friendly staff quickly becomes part of your visit’s highlight, with their patient and genuine service making every guest feel right at home — whether you're a first-time visitor or a returning regular. One customer shared how they felt a bit scattered initially but found comfort in the friendly, knowledgeable baristas who helped guide their choices.

Wake Up Coffee Company’s menu invites exploration with a rich array of beverages and tasty treats that cater to a variety of tastes. For coffee lovers, specialties like the Island Mocha and Turtle Mocha deliver luscious chocolate undertones balanced by smooth espresso, while the Traditional Cappuy offers that classic velvety froth any coffee aficionado craves. For those cooler days, the Baked Apple Latte is a standout, combining warm spice with creamy sweetness in a way that's perfectly nuanced, never overpowering. If you prefer something iced and refreshing, their Cold Brew Iced Coffee and Chilly Signature frappes hit the mark with crisp, bold flavors.

The food menu is just as thoughtfully curated. Fresh-baked items like the Pumpkin Bread, Cranberry Muffin, and Scones are ideal companions to your coffee, boasting a moist, flavorful bite that satisfies without overwhelming. The Avocado Toast with an Egg is a testament to fresh, simple ingredients done right — creamy, rich avocado paired with a soft, perfectly cooked egg on quality bread. These offerings elevate Wake Up Coffee beyond just a coffee stop, transforming it into a small culinary haven.

Beyond the eats and drinks, the shop doubles as a delightful gift spot. Shoppers can find island-inspired mugs, cool t-shirts, and unique souvenirs that make perfect keepsakes of their visit or gifts to share with friends and family. Regulars like Elizabeth Peed appreciate taking home “The Whistler” blend — a coffee that’s bold yet smooth, distinctly memorable and perfect for brewing at home.

What really shines at Wake Up Coffee Company is the blend of excellent quality, attentive service, and a cozy environment. Customers consistently praise the rich, flavorful coffee, the variety of delicious pastries, and the inviting, relaxed atmosphere — perfect for a quick catch-up, a moment of quiet reflection, or even a casual workspace. The convenient location at the airport plaza is an added bonus, making it easy to stop by and savor a moment of pause in your travel or daily routine.

Whether you're local or just passing through, Wake Up Coffee Company is not just a place to grab your caffeine fix. It’s an island gem that leaves you feeling refreshed, cared for, and genuinely uplifted — a perfect start to any day or a warm respite whenever you need it.

    What a great experience! First time visit as an out of towner and the girl at the counter was so friendly and patient. I was definitely having a squirrel brain moment looking at all the cute and fun things. I ordered the seasonal baked apple pie with almond milk, iced, and it was fantastic! The apple was not overpowering which I have found to be common with other coffee places I've been to. Lots of room for seating! Although I didn't get any of the food (food rating is based on the coffee taste) it all looked really good. I'm just visiting on vacation for a short time so I don't know if I'll be back, but if I was local I definitely would visit more often.

    This is my go to coffee place whenever we visit the island. I get a bag of The Whistler blend ground to brew at the house. It has such a unique flavor, strong but not bitter. They always have cool t-shirts and mugs available as well.

    What a beautiful space they have made here for enjoying coffee and treats and friends! We love coming here when we visit and each time we come, the space looks bigger and brighter and more welcoming. I love the Turtle Mocha and the wife likes Honey Vanilla Raspberry! Pro tip! Pick up a bag of coffee and they will give you a free coffee as well, a great way to get some for now and some later! :) Also, we picked up a nicely designed tumbler, colorful and fun! Check them out and help support this wonderful place! We will be back!

    I can’t visit St. Simons Island without stopping by Wake Up Coffee Company several times during my stay. They offer a well-rounded selection of hot and cold coffee drinks, along with a small but excellent assortment of bakery items. The scones, muffins, and power balls are all top-notch. Yes, it’s a little pricey — but most good coffee shops are these days. It’s absolutely worth it.
