Shop Overview
Just Love Coffee Cafe is a specialty-coffee-focused stop at Orlando International Airport (MCO), designed for travelers who want a quality caffeine fix without committing to a full sit-down meal. Expect a fast-casual counter setup where you can order classic drip coffee and espresso-based drinks alongside grab-and-go snacks that travel well.
The experience is typically quick and practical: you’ll see a steady flow of passengers ordering lattes, iced coffee, and breakfast-friendly items. Like most airport coffee concepts, the emphasis is on speed and consistency—ideal when you’re navigating security timing, gate changes, and boarding calls.
What to Buy
- Espresso drinks: Lattes, cappuccinos, Americanos, and mochas are the go-to choices when you want something stronger than standard drip.
- Iced coffee/cold options: Orlando’s warmth makes iced coffee a frequent bestseller—especially for mid-day departures.
- Grab-and-go breakfast: Look for pastries and breakfast snacks you can carry to the gate (a smart move if your boarding group is called soon).
- Packaged snacks: If available, add a packaged treat for the flight—useful on routes with limited onboard service.
Local specialties/exclusives: Airport coffee shops rarely offer true “airport exclusives,” but you can often find Florida-friendly, travel-proof choices like iced drinks and quick breakfast items that fit the pace of MCO.
Price expectations: Prices are typically higher than off-airport cafés due to airport concession costs. Since this is not a duty-free shop, there are no duty-free savings—consider it a convenience purchase, especially if you need caffeine after security.
Location & Hours
Location: Orlando International Airport (MCO), Orlando, United States. Concourse placement can vary by terminal; the most reliable way to pinpoint it on your travel day is the official MCO terminal map or wayfinding signs once you enter your concourse.
Directions: After clearing security, follow signage toward your gates and look for the food court/concessions cluster—coffee concepts are commonly positioned near main passenger flows to catch both early-morning and pre-boarding traffic.
Security: Most coffee venues at MCO operate post-security to serve departing passengers; confirm on-site signage if you are trying to buy before screening.
Hours: Airport dining hours often run roughly early morning through evening (about 5am–10pm), but they can shift with flight schedules and seasonality. Check the airport directory day-of for the most accurate hours.
Peak times: 6:00–10:00am is typically busiest for coffee. Quieter windows tend to be mid-afternoon between banked departures.
Shopping Tips
- Time your stop: If you’re cutting it close, order the simplest drink (drip coffee or Americano) and pair it with a pre-packed snack to minimize wait time.
- Carry-on friendly: Ask for a lid and sleeve; it’s a small comfort that matters when walking long MCO concourses.
- Returns: Food and beverage purchases are generally final sale. If there’s an issue with your order, address it immediately at the counter.
- Payments: Expect USD pricing and standard card/contactless acceptance at airport concessions; keep a card handy for faster checkout.
- Duty-free allowances: Not applicable here—this is not duty-free merchandise.
