What People Are Saying
from Google"Location: Next to multiple food trucks. Excellent to grab lunch & coffee. One accessible parking space. Spacious for a wheelchair or stroller. The area has many tables & umbrellas for shade. Restrooms: not visible, maybe they are a bit hidden? Card payment only. Tips in cash appreciated!"
"Rating: 4.6/5 Later Gator Coffee is a cute pink truck located at the Lawn. I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised to find no line. I ordered one of their summer specials—the Meringue Gator ($7) with oat milk (+$0.75). It's a coconut and white chocolate matcha topped with meringue cold foam and toasted coconut flakes. I expected it to be super sweet and heavy, but it was actually perfectly balanced. All the flavors blended beautifully, making it feel like a refreshing treat rather than a dessert overload. I’m definitely coming back to try more of their drinks!"
"Got the Rabbit Eye. Fun kick to it! The review is about the customer service this morning - 9/17. I didn’t get the name of the employee that took my order/made my drink BUT they made my morning (I’m working off of less than 5 hrs of sleep, back to back nights) They were calm, welcoming, friendly, patient, sweet and informative. They’re energy alone will have me returning to this establishment!!"
