    Salted Caramel Macchiato
    Alison M.

    Super cute breakfast and lunch spot in Indian Rocks! Grove Surf Cafe absolutely nailed it. The coffee is delicious, ingredients taste super fresh, and there's a dangerously good selection of baked goods. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. I had the salted caramel latte and it was spot on -- flavorful without being overly sweet. The avocado toast was honestly some of the best I've ever had: thick sourdough toast piled high with freshly mashed avocado, pickled red onion, feta, crunchy corn nuts, and radish. Total flavor explosion. We also grabbed the Key lime muffin, which was buttery and soft with a perfect dollop of tangy key lime filling on top. Laid-back, beachy vibes with really thoughtful food and drinks. A must-stop if you're in Indian Rocks.

    Wow!! This place has it all - great vibe, wonderful service and amazing food. The sandwiches were so good. The coffees are so great- house made caramel!!! And the bakery items were so delicious

    Super cute beachy cafe with outstanding food & coffee! My friends and I were starving after a night out, we were saved by their chicken Caesar wrap. Dressing was fresh, refreshing with perfectly seasoned chicken. The breakfast burrito was so satisfying, creamy with avocado and a huge filling portion. Absolutely delicious 10/10. Fast service too despite being so busy on a Saturday!

    Breakfast sandwich

    Wow! Fantastic! Delicious breakfast sandwich and well made cold brew. This place was packed as I believe everyone had the same experience. Highly recommend. Staff was friendly. Great seating inside and out.

    Grove Surf Cafe never misses. It's a wonderful spot to grab some bites and coffee before hopping across to the beach. The service is on point and is super helpful if you're indecisive to explain which one is the better one to get if you're stuck in between ordering (since everything sounds and is great). This place gets packed, but the ambiance is extremely cute and has beach vibes all around. There's surf boards and wicker decor. If you're in line you can shop around too at their merch (they have got cute stuff). I've been here multiple times, the food is great. Get the breakfast burrito Also pictured (but I believe it's a special) - is the French toast sticks with vanilla cream for their opening anniversary date and WOW was it good!

    5 out of 5. This place rocks and Indian Rocks needs more places like The Grove. The restaurant opens for breakfast at 8 each morning. The line starts forming well before they open, so get here early. We didn't but came for lunch instead. Lunch was the same. Line forms, or maybe never stops (lol), early. We waited about 20 min to order and another 20 to get food. It was well worth the wait. We enjoyed a round of smash burgers with garlic aioli sauce. Out if they world good!! We also shared a Kale Cesar salad. It was so fresh and delicious. Definitely check this place out. It's right up the road from the Indian Rocks public beach parking area.

    Come feel all the surfer vibes at this cafe across the street from Indian Rocks Beach. So cute, so fun! The workers were so sweet and there's many options to choose from. They have an adorable section of merch as well which was tempting. I thought the coffee was good but not super strong. Maybe it was just the one I got, though. They do also have food here so you can get a good lunch or other and I'll definitely be back to try that. Such an adorable place that's the perfect stop before or after a beach day, or just for the vibes!

    I love the hash browns so so so much Most of there drinks are like coffee and matcha but if you come with a younger kid you can just ask for lemonade it is so so so good

    Iced coconut latte
    Ann M.

    Amazing coffee, food and atmosphere. Our family visited while on vacation and we liked it so much that we visited twice. The iced coconut latte was fantastic and all of the food we ordered was wonderful. Can't recommend enough.

    Hash bowl
    Kaori T.

    The caffeinated drinks are great. Good coffee and cute merchandise while you wait in line. To me there is limited choices on the menu, and I wasn't very impressed with my hash bowl. Cute atmosphere though by the beach and my beau did enjoy his breakfast burrito!

    Overall the experience at Grove met expectations. The vibe is cute (albeit loud when busy!) and on the weekends expect a line out the door. It's a quintessential modern Florida beach cafe. The coffees were good and relatively priced well. We ordered the toasted coconut latte, although I'm not a fan of having chew eat actual coconut in my coffee. We ordered the breakfast burrito and the bacon egg and cheese sandwich. The flavors were pretty decent and met expectations, but the value is a reach. Both were about 30-40% more expensive than I would expect at a beach breakfast cafe, given the size of the portions. I'd recommend don't charge $2 more for bacon in a $15 burrito, and make sure the portions are reasonable to the prices. The prices make you feel as though you may actually be in Hawaii. Overall flavors are good, vibe is good, value is hard to find and would keep me from coming back often.

    Such a great place for a morning breakfast and coffee! Gluten free chocolate chip muffin was amazing and great egg sandwich for my dad! We were outside maybe 10-12 people back, but only took about 15 minutes to get inside to order and get our coffee and breakfast. Inside was great and chill vibes. Tables were a little close together but still felt spacious. Definitely will go back and try the brunch.

    What a success this place is! We had great service and food. The wait was long because it's so popular. How do you make scrambled eggs that fluffy and creamy?? PLEASE ADD ANOTHER LOCATION IN BELLEAIR OR SANDKEY!!

It wasn't bad but also disappointingly not great food wise. Service was pleasant and they brought items out quickly since it wasn't real busy on a Saturday lunchtime. Parking up front was easy. Staff was nice and friendly. Order at the counter and they bring it to your table. Quiche with bacon mushrooms was just ok. Lacked seasoning, richness and depth of flavor. Not bad but not great. The pressed pâté panini with cornichons had a crunch and iceberg lettuce. The croissants missed the laminated butter pastry taste and flakiness. The raspberry beignet wasn't overly sweet but tasted more bready than donut beignet. After that, we still ordered a lemon sugar crepe that missed the mark. It leaned more savory undertones without the lightness, tart and sweetness. More meh. I tried adding more sugar. Was it the lemon in the jar instead of fresh squeezed? The batter? The whipped cream didn't help. Oh well, we tried. All in all folks seem to like it, but I wouldn't really say it's a Parisian cafe or a patisserie that I'd make a long drive. If you haven't had a great French bakery or staying in Pinellas or just want some for the beach, it's great. We were disappointed by expecting more than it was. Unfortunately.

The crab cake was perfectly seasoned, the English muffin was toasted perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was also perfect. The cheesy grits were good as well! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. My guest also loved her meal, ( Salmon Benedict) the salmon was perfectly done without being dry, the eggs were a little beyond poached but that's okay. The home fried potatoes were golden brown and an excellent addition to the meal. The ambiance is super chill which is surprising considering how good the food is. The chicken and waffles were exceptional as well. The four chicken strips with tender, juicy and well seasoned placed on top of the golden brown waffle which was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The butter and maple syrup was butter made this waffle an 8/10.

Even though we're in our early 60's it seemed like we were the youngest people there. The server was awesome and waited on us immediately. They have a decent selection of beers and a full bar. They state that all of their drinks are made: "with a wine base liquor is a fermented beverage flavored to mimic the taste of a traditional distilled spirit". Sounded intereting but wasn't willing to spend the money to just try it. I did try the Grouper Philly sandwich which was very good. I'm always on a quest to try Grouper served a different way and they did a great job. My wife ordered the Grouper Rueben and also liked it very much. We both ordered hush puppies and would agree with a another reviewer that they had good flavor but were very dense. All in all not a bad place and my only reason for not doing 5 stars is the back bar was super small and I felt like our neighbors were sitting super close. Despite that we'd go back and try the front dining room. Good food.

Stepping into Sugar Baby Cafe was a unique experience for Seminole, FL…read more It honestly gave me that trendy coffee shop vibe you would expect to find in St. Pete, super aesthetic and very picture worthy! The vibe was very cozy, clean, and hip, mixing modern design with rattan accents and a dash of greenery. It felt clean, cute, and really thoughtfully put together! Service was great. The staff was friendly, patient, and actually took time to explain popular items without rushing me at all. Loved that!! Parking is a bit limited. It is a small lot with a simple pull-in and back-out setup right onto the road, so it can feel tight. That said, I went around 11am and it worked out just fine with no hassle. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon (plus $2 extra) and homemade lemon aioli on a toasted brioche bun and wow... the presentation was next level. I definitely took way too many photos before even touching it, no regrets! It tasted as good as it looks. Taste-wise, it was sweet, fresh, and super creamy with really nice texture. I also ordered the matcha latte, which was a bit disappointing. The ratio leaned heavily toward milk, making it very milky and lighter in matcha flavor than I expected. Wait time was quick, and pricing felt fair for the quality and experience. Overall, this is such a fun spot for brunch lovers, cute café dates, or anyone just wanting a sweet treat moment. I would 100% come back again!!
