I often stop off at the Drunken Monkey Coffee Bar after work at Full Sail so I don’t have to drive all the way home before going to an event to sketch. Everyone sipping their coffee seems to involved in some form of work be it digital or traditional. It is right across the street from the plaza theater, so I often end up waiting her prior to a performance at the theater. The coffee bar is also half way between Full Sail and downtown which makes it the perfect stopping spot for me. If I plan to sketch downtown later that evening.
There are plenty of tasty sandwiches on the menu as well which makes it a fine place to grab a bit for dinner as well. I’m a creature of habit and if I love a spot I return often. I also like getting to see the ever changing art on the walls which feature local artists. I always support any business that supports the local arts scene.
I no longer go to Drunken Monkey since they used one of my sketches on their server home page without consulting me..
