    I love this place! My favorite is the Bella Fonte - a waffle with Nutella and strawberries with whipped cream on top and it's absolutely delicious! They have a lot of milkshakes and stuff as well which I have yet to try. The service is always really great and quick! It's a small dessert store in the historic st Augustine area with a few high top seats, perfect stop for a quick dessert!

    Logan provided an excellent customer experience. He was incredibly friendly and gave us some great recommendations! Food was great and the facilities were very clean

    Definitely go to Cousteau's Waffle & Milkshake Bar! They have great flavors of ice cream and different types of waffles that tasted amazing. We had the delicious Mint Monster Ice cream and the incredible Belafonte Waffle. It was a nice treat coming from the beach. The vibe and the themes in the store is perfect. It was busy but Noah served us in a timely manner. He made sure to thank us for our patience. We were Impressed with his performance and service to the busyness of the shoppe. We will absolutely go to Cousteau's again!

    Cousteau's waffle and milkshake has a variety of ice cream flavors and treats to choose from. Handmade waffles and handmade milkshakes here! I ordered the matching pajamas : Two halves of a waffle sandwiched around your choice of ice cream, dipped in chocolate. I had the Andies chocolate mint chip ice cream and to be honest, the ice cream was the stand out of the treat! Staff were friendly and the ambiance was quirky but cute.

    We've been here twice for dessert and love it. Plenty of easy parking and comfortable seating area in a clean and welcoming space. Love having this so close to our home - we will be back again and again!

    Let me start by saying I am not a huge milkshake/sweets person. I came here because a friend recently told me about the amazing decor and how the entire business is themed after Wes Andersons movie Life Aquatic. I left with a delicious milkshake! It was a little confusing finding this location. We first came to the location in downtown St Augustine. This location has some themed decor but nothing like their beachside location. The decor is actually pretty amazing. I really enjoyed looking at all the pictures and hand painted Murals. The associates were friendly and helpful. They have handmade waffles, hand spun milkshakes and just simply icecream if you don't want it all. The milkshake options all sounded really tasty. If you love milkshakes this is the place for you. I got a espresso milkshake. I also purchased a hat, sticker and shirt because the theme is pretty epic :)

    If you are looking for a unique dessert experience in a Wes Anderson themed location, then this is the place for you! However, you don't have to be a Life Aquatic fan to appreciate Cousteau's. I am not traditionally a milkshake girl, but upon reading the menu I was willing to make an exception. I ordered the Ping Island (no whip) which was a combo of chocolate, peanut butter, marshmallow and graham crackers. Amazing mix of flavors. Even though I'd just eaten dinner I downed this shake like it was my last meal . My friend opted for a waffle treat - the Whirlybird - with an apple compote. If you don't want bells & whistles, there is a wide selection of ice cream available by the scoop or pint. Fast, friendly service to boot! It was 1000% worth the calories! (We went to the Beachside location).

They have more flavors than I can even remember--truly something for everyone, including sugar-free and dairy-free options. The "single scoop" here is absolutely massive; at most other places, it would be considered a large. It is incredibly well-priced (under $6!), so you really get your money's worth. I got the Dairy-Free Coffee Almond Fudge, and it was fantastic! While I wish they had a few more dairy-free flavors to match their massive traditional menu, I love that they don't upcharge for the dairy-free options. That is a huge win in my book. The vibe is exactly what you'd want from a local mom-and-pop shop: kitschy, eclectic, and covered in cows. They even have rocking chairs on the front porch to relax in. The crew is always friendly and helpful, too. Pro-tip: This place is popular for a reason! If you're visiting on a weekend, be prepared to wait a bit. Trust me, though--it is so very worth it.

Cone Heads is located right on A1A Beach Blvd, just a block off of the beach. It is in a standalone building that is inviting with both colorful signage and plenty of outdoor seating. They also have a drive-thru and a private parking lot. When we visited on a Tuesday in July around 5:30 PM, we had no issue getting a parking spot. There were some other customers enjoying some ice cream, but there was relatively no line when we entered the store. The ordering happens inside, and you walk right into the ice cream cabinets and counter. All of the flavors are displayed and can be seen from the order line. Additionally inside, there are some tables to sit and eat at, along with a restroom. They sell a variety of merchandise along with their food and dessert selection. I liked seeing the community cork-board, where there were a variety of different posters and advertisements for events and services around the area. The menu consisted of traditional ice cream items one would expect - cups, cones, sundaes, banana splits, milkshakes, and more. They also had a Seasonal Special section on the menu, which I assume changes somewhat frequently. This trip, that item was a Donut Ice Cream Sandwich. There are some sundae combinations on the menu, but you can customize your own if you choose. There is hard ice cream, soft serve, and also some hot food options - hot dogs, sausages, and tamales, primarily. For drinks, they had canned soda, bottled, water, and some coffee options. As far as to-go, they had pints and quarts available for the ice cream, along with a freezer full of pre-packaged pints, quarts, and ice cream sandwiches for a grab and go situation. Having never been here before, our group needed some time to look at the menu and flavors before ordering. There were around 30 different flavors of hard ice cream, which included No Sugar Added and Dairy Free varieties, in addition to traditional full dairy varieties. I thought that the flavor selection was a healthy mix of traditional favorites and unique offerings. The staff working were friendly and helpful with answering all of our questions about the flavors. I even got to try a couple samples before making my decision. After much debate, I landed on trying the Donut Ice Cream Sandwich. This was made to order, and I got to choose the ice cream for the filling. I opted for the Kahula Chip for a coffee and donut flavor combination. I did enjoy this treat! The donut was fresh (and from a local spot), and the ice cream complimented it nicely. I thought the price was also fair for the size and specialty of the dessert, at $5.50 before any tax. My dog was waiting patiently in the car, so we ordered him a Doggie Ice Cream. It was a small boat of vanilla soft serve with peanut butter sauce and a Milk Bone. For my magnet collection, I also purchased one of their logo to take home with me. I personally did not pay the bill, but I thought the pricing here was fair and in line with any other similar type of shop. They took both cash and card. This shop is exactly what you would want out of an ice cream shop on the beach - fun, colorful, and local. They incorporate various other local businesses into their products. The theme of the establishment is appropriate for being a block away from the ocean, and there is a lot of color and fun decor to look at around the building. The staff were all pleasant, the product is tasty, and the price is right. Really enjoyed discovering Cone Heads on this trip, and will make sure to stop by again during my future trips to St. Augustine!
