Subculture Coffee Jupiter — Restaurant in Jupiter

Much needed Coffee Shop in the area - but wrong coffee shop for this area with terrible food and disinterested staff

The problem with this place lies in the restaurant name. This is a coffee / breakfast company that prides itself on not succumbing to the norm. I personally applaud this. They don't hire the norm for employees, they don't serve the norm for food, and they certainly don't decorate for the norm. This works great in West Palm Beach on Clematis. We go to the Clematis shop regularly when we are at O'Sheas for football. The shop fits in on Clematis. The store seems more "natural" in the Clematis zone, and doesn't seem contrived. The clientele on Clematis match the staff, and it all seems to work in beautiful harmony.

This branch of Subculture is in Jupiter, next to the Wyndham, the Woods, Jupiter Grille, high-end art and clothes shops, etc. The coffee shop is out of its element here. It doesn't fit. When you go in, it seems forced and contrived. You walk in the door, and it seems like they are trying too hard to be out of the norm. It is forced. It just doesn't fit with the rest of the area. It is similar to putting a tattoo parlor or CBD shop in Disney's Epcot. It would just be out of place.

The coffee is good, but there is only one roast choice, and the largest cup is 12 ounces - nothing bigger. The other issue is the staff. Disinterested to say the least. No smile, no warmth. It seems that they are doing you a favor by being at work. I believe this is because the company goes out of their way to hire people that don't fit the mold. Unfortunately, it appears that they not only don't fit the normal mode, they also don't want to be there.

The biggest problem isn't the coffee, nor the disinterested staff. The biggest problem is the food. The food is as strange as the shop tries to be. You cannot just get a normal blueberry muffin, scone, or breakfast sandwich. It is all strange ingredients in gluten-free or vegan form. Orange cardamom nut muffins. Gluten free and sugar-free (and taste free) coffee cake. Spinach empanadas. It is impossible to find just some plain, normal breakfast fare like a muffin or a bagel. They are missing out on so much revenue from people like me that just want a normal muffin. I applaud having options for people with food allergies, but you may not want to make that the only thing you serve. You cancel out the 90% of the population that just wants a normal breakfast experience.

I wish the store luck, but unfortunately, I will not be back. In the meantime, when I am in the area, I just grab a large coffee from the Wyndham - the coffee shop is in the lobby and they have a good...

It was alright, but I probably won't go for food again. I visited during lunch to grab a quick bite to-go. I enjoyed the decor and the comfortable lounging options they had. It seemed they had a large menu of draft and bottled beers, as well as wine which caught my attention. As for the food, I ordered a pressed Cuban which took over 20 minutes to receive and there was only one couple that had also ordered food, who I'd like to add ordered 5 minutes after me and received their food before mine too! Probably due to the fact the staff were busy talking to each other and eating their salad behind the counter, opposed to helping their co-workers with orders. As it took longer than expected, I rushed out with my tiny box of food. Upon return to my office, I noticed they gave me a Turkey and Ham, not a Cuban. It didn't even have pickles on it, as stated and expected! Also, the serving size of the sandwich was extremely small for $11. The size may be satisfactory for a child or petite woman, but definitely not an adult male. I was pretty disappointed for trying a spot with so much hype. I will try it one more time, but as stated not for food. I would give a 2.5 out of 5 star if possible, but I will be generous as they are still fairly new and probably working out the kinks.

On another note, a lot of staff for a small place that had a lot of dirty patron tables. I also witnessed two staff walk by the overflowing table where patrons are requested to leave their used plates and the staff did nothing about it. They walked back to the "kitchen" and continued to chat with friends. Also, the menu boards are nearly impossible to see until you are right in front of the cashier. Maybe include some small, laminate menus right when you walk...
