    UPDATE: I would suggest never letting them cut the bagels because over half of them were cut from the top slanted down to the bottom and one was actually cut from top to bottom. Four of them could not even go into the toaster if I wanted them too. The bagels are fantastic, but they're cutting skills Are severely lacking if you want to toast a bagel. If you just want pieces of a bagel then you're set. This by far is the best bagel place in Northeast Florida! It is truly difficult to find a decent bagel around Jacksonville and Saint Augustine however, this is a true local owned gem! The bagels are prepared fresh with a variety of flavors including ghost pepper bagel (not something I'm brave enough to try. They had ample pumpernickel bagel, which is one of my favorites and they will cut them through a machine for free. The customer service is outstanding. I was greeted with a smile and she was very patient as I was selecting the bagels. The atmosphere is warm, friendly and inviting and has a small hint of a New York deli. Even though it's a bit of a drive, it was worth every single mile! Between the outstanding bagels and the customer service you cannot go wrong here.

    Bagel with Cream Cheese & Lox
    Donna C.

    I was craving a solid lox bagel and found this bagel place close by on 210. I was lucky getting there at 9:30 to have gotten a bagel at all. This place is hopping!!! I saw many people order ahead to make sure they got their bagels. So much so I ordered the last everything bagel, or so I thought. It was already called for by an online order. Garlic was what I ended on. Delicious! Scallion cream cheese and all the lox fixings. It hit the spot so well. Will come back!!

    Very busy bagel shop but A hidden diamond in the rough. The line was out the door. I ordered a half dozen of bagels. 2 french toast, 2 cinnamon raisin and 2 everything bagel with honey walnut cheese spread. I had to wait 15 minutes for the cinnamon raisin bagels which are a hot commodity. There is no bagel shop close to us. The next closet Bagel shop is in Mandarin, bagels R us. I was not a fan. However, Bite a Bagel, I am a fan. This place hit the baseball right out of the park! Homerun!

    This place is my go to for bagels. It gets REAL busy on the weekends, but worth the sit. Staff is also super friendly. They do have some tables, but I always get to go. Best bagels I've had in the area by far.

    For some odd reason, I have never once visited this shop since I moved around this area in 2005 til this day. My manager was amazed and told me to try it this weekend. And so, I did. Lol. Came here with my sister and the shop was quite busy, but not hectic. Opened the door and smelled the great fresh coffee and bagels. Nice and cute decor and the staff were friendly. We ordered: - Everything bagel w/Lox Spread - 1/2 dozen bagels (blueberry, 2 asiagos, 2 wheats and a garlic) The lox spread was amazing and I love savory tastes. Based on their website, lox is raw sugar cured smoked salmon. This cream cheese spread was also mixed with capers, scallops and a hint of lemon. The family enjoyed the bagels as well. I recommend this place and would love to revisit again and try their hot bagel menu and coffee.

    lox with veggie cream cheese on a sesame seed bagel
    Lynnea B.

    These bagels are extremely fluffy, doughy, starchy, and filling- just how I like them! My favorite is the sesame seed but the everything is a close runner up. They have an outstanding selection of cream cheese, I enjoy the scallion cream cheese or the veggie cream cheese as an upgrade to my usual lox bagel. Whenever I'm craving a New York style bagel, this is the first place that comes to mind. The bread is fresh and fluffy!

    After reading negative reviews, we opted to try this nearby bagel place anyway. We read about long waits and bad service, so when a friendly cashier quickly got our order together, we were delighted. There was barely any wait on this late Saturday morning. There were also warnings on the wall that wait times may be long - so they do acknowledge it may be a part of your experience. The bagels and cream cheese were moderately priced and pretty delicious. I had an Asiago with jalapeño cream cheese, my husband had Asiago with bacon cheddar (yummy and smoky), and my daughter had chocolate chip. We all enjoyed are heavily cream cheesed creations. I got the flavored coffee which was like Jamaican coconut or something. It was really good. Not super strong but typical taste of flavored coffees. (Think Panera's hazelnut). Also the staff seemed chipper and busy. It was a casual vibe with a little outside seating. We will certainly be back!

    Was in the area and stopped by for a quick bite. They offer online ordering and you can just pick up outside the front door to help with social distancing and if you are on a time crunch. I went inside an ordered as there was no line at the time. They have an impressive menu that offers breakfast and lunch sandwiches along with traditional bagels and spreads ranging Inna variety of flavors. The sign out front showed that they have seasonal flavors like pumpkin right now as well. I went basic and ordered a blueberry bagel with blueberry cream cheese & french toast bagel with walnut spread. Seating inside is labeled for customers dinning in only to help with social distancing. Once you place a to go order you have to wait outside with the online orders. There are social distancing markers on the floor when you come in to order. The staff is was friendly and helpful.

Therefore, this gets a long wait for breakfast/brunch. It's hard to get a parking spot but there's free parking across the street. They have a big waiting area next to the restaurant which is definitely needed as we ended up waiting like 45 minutes around 9:30 am on a Saturday. The food was definitely worth the wait though. I got the burrito smothered with sauce and cheese and the flavor was fantastic. Flavorful but not super spicy or anything. It's also HUGE. Highly recommend. Service is a little questionable, if it was quicker they could probably help with their long wait. It was hard to flag down our girl when we needed something & it took ages to get to check.

The service showed a real lack of knowledge and attentiveness. When I ordered whole milk for my coffee, the response was essentially "is half and half okay?" -- no, it is absolutely not okay. These are completely different in taste and calories, and it's not a reasonable substitute to casually suggest. What made it worse: oat milk, almond milk, and whole milk were all visibly sitting in the fridge right there from where I was seated at the bar. Zero effort to offer what was clearly available. The atmosphere didn't help either. The space feels like someone started building a café concept and never finished thinking it through. It's uninviting, disorganized, and oddly off -- not warm, not designed with the customer in mind. Nothing about the food, the presentation, or the space gives you a reason to choose this place over anywhere else. Not particularly tasty, not nicely decorated, not a vibe. Not sure what keeps people coming back, honestly.

The combination of imaginative cocktails, exceptional food, and a unique atmosphere makes every visit memorable. The cocktail program is outstanding. We enjoy trying a variety of their exotic and inventive drinks, and they never disappoint. The flavors are bold, creative, and unlike anything you'll find at a typical restaurant bar. The Yellow Submarine cocktail is quite possibly the best drink I have ever consumed. Made with curry-infused Bermuda black rum, lime, ginger, and Asian five-spice brown sugar syrup, it sounded unusual on paper but came together beautifully. I enjoyed it so much that I ordered four of them that evening, something I rarely do. That was three years ago, and despite returning several times since then, I have never seen it on the menu again. The food is equally impressive. Two years ago, I ordered the Skillet Roasted New York Strip served with Yukon Gold potato-anna, roasted asparagus and spring onions, watercress, and black truffle hollandaise. To this day, it remains one of the top five restaurant meals I have ever eaten. Every component on the plate was exceptional. The steak was perfectly prepared, the crispy potato galette was irresistible, and the black truffle hollandaise elevated the entire dish to another level. It was the kind of meal that stays with you long after the plate is cleared. I would gladly drive 300 miles just to eat it again. Most recently, I had the wild mushroom bisque, and it was the best soup I have ever consumed. Rich, creamy, buttery, intensely mushroomy, and perfectly balanced, it was everything a mushroom soup should be. The addition of crispy pickled onions and crème fraîche added texture and contrast that made an already outstanding soup even better. My wife and I enjoyed it so much that we returned the very next day hoping to order it again, only to discover it had already rotated off the menu. My only complaint about The Ice Plant is that some of their greatest creations seem to disappear as quickly as they arrive. While I appreciate the constantly evolving menu and understand that seasonal changes are part of what makes the restaurant special, there are certain items that deserve a permanent home. The Yellow Submarine cocktail, the wild mushroom bisque, and the Skillet Roasted New York Strip with black truffle hollandaise are three of the finest things I have experienced there. The fact that I can vividly remember one of these items from three years ago and another from two years ago says everything. Great restaurants serve good food. Truly special restaurants create dishes and drinks that stay with you for years. The Ice Plant has done that for me more than once, and that is why we continue to return whenever we visit St. Augustine.

When I arrived with my pregnant wife and my service dog, he asked somewhat curtly if it was a service dog. After I confirmed and thanked him, he rudely placed the menu on the table, turned around without saying another word or showing any basic courtesy, and just walked away with his back to us. It was a pretty cold and uncomfortable welcome. That said, the restaurant is absolutely charming. I really loved the interior ambiance--it's cozy, well-decorated, and has a very pleasant vibe. The food was extremely delicious. We ordered the Half Pound Ice Plant Burger and it was juicy, fresh, and packed with flavor. You could taste the quality in every single bite--the meat was perfect, the ingredients fresh, and everything very well balanced. Definitely one of the best burgers I've had recently. Despite the initial host experience, I would return without hesitation for the food and the atmosphere. Highly recommended, but they could improve the initial greeting.
