Patrick served a regular coffee w/milk within minutes of ordering. VERY strong coffee; I recommend asking for 1/3 coffee + 1/3 water + 1/3 milk & LOTS of honey (or sugar), unless you want a straight-up, RockStar brew w/lots of gusto packed into one cup... think 'Truck Stop' coffee... & under $3, too!! Me? I will be ordering their 'Affogato' (espresso w/1scoop ice cream) next time. The freezers are well stocked with LOTS of #IceCream choices with #WaffleCones to cool off in the afternoons. Patrick manages the store for his Pops, John; super nice, friendly guy, made the coffee taste better. (Note to self: When offered a sweetener, TAKE IT!! ) Easily accessed off the A1A, across from #BeverlyBeach, with 2 designated parking spots available, bc summer hasn't quite hit; it's still early in the season. read more

I heard this shop had great coconut ice cream so I had to go try it. I ordered a small and it was a good size. It was bigger than my posted picture as I had already eaten some. They had a lot of flavors but I didn't look carefully because I was all in for the coconut. My husband enjoyed the spumoni. Both employees there were super friendly and they were eager to help and make suggestions. The shop had seating inside and outside and we were able to watch the customers get greeted and served quickly. Most interesting thing was the female employee checked in to see how we liked it. That has never happened to me in an ice cream shop. read more

After enjoying Crescent Beach we decided to stop over for some ice cream, and weren't disappointed! They have a nice selection of ordinary and some not so ordinary flavors to choose from. Service was top notch and we were encouraged to sample anything we wanted. Portions are large -- I had to tell her to stop adding ice cream to my cup to avoid over indulging! I had my first affogata and let me tell you, it was fantastic! The espresso was nice and strong but contrasted nicely with the sweetness and richness of the ice cream. I suspect it will be hard to beat this one, but after eating it I am hooked and am looking forward to my next! We will definitely come back here the next time we're at this beach. read more

Because what's better than ice cream and coffee? Island Ice Cream Cafe is a small business in Crescent Beach. When I spent the weekend in the area last month, we not only came here for ice cream on Saturday, but again on Sunday for coffee! The versatility is palpable. The place has character as soon as you walk in. Brightly painted walls and around 20 seats. Thinking back, I honestly can't remember the flavor I dove into, but it was astounding in said moment! Maybe Salted Caramel? Geez Matt, you're getting old... You know how much I support locally roasted coffee, so seeing none other than Bold Bean on the menu won me over completely. The owner told us how the upper management team from BB trained them thoroughly. Totally recommend when in the neighborhood, especially after a classic Florida beach day! read more

Such a cute little ice cream shop. The employee was so great and very helpful. She recommended excellent flavors followed by a generous sample! There were tons of great flavors and a few non dairy options. I chose cookie dough and pecan praline and my boyfriend got the gator tracks and fishhawh. The portion size was much larger than I was expecting, no complaints here! Make sure you double check on their open hours before you go. There was a sign in the window that noted March hours being different than the hours posted online. Next time I'm in the area I'll definitely have to stop by again. And hopefully get a good picture before digging in! read more

Quaint ice cream shop & cafe. Just opened last week. The owner & staff are very sweet (that's good for an ice cream shop)! Their shop is right on A1A & there's nothing like it in Crescent Beach. Btw - if you haven't been to Crescent Beach - it's worth the drive! Walking into the shop is like taking a step into the Caribbean. There is a beautiful mural that covers the length of the wall. It was done by a local artist & really fits the location. They are currently offering 36 flavors & coffees from Bold Bean! read more

My family of 4 (2 adults, a 10 yo, and a 6 yo) got some ice cream here on 4/5 during our Spring Break vacation in the Saint Augustine area. There was a large selection of traditional and unique flavors (I'd compare some of the selections to those offered by Mayfield). The service was great. We took advantage of the small, but nice, seating area they had inside (since there was some rain in the area). We also noticed that they also offered coffee, milkshakes, and other goodies! read more

I'm just having good food, others because they've got special service, this restaurant has neither of them. Very sad with the rich heritage that they have and the fact that they can grow their own oysters. Unfortunately, 90% of the time when you go to commanders half the menu isn't even available. So if you like hush puppies and fried crap from China, this is your place. But if you want fresh seafood, there's a whole bunch of others in St Augustine and elsewhere.

Cone Heads Ice Cream

Stopped here for something sweet after spending the afternoon on St. Augustine Beach with my…read morefamily. This was my first visit to Cone Heads, and I had a very enjoyable experience! 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!

The staff here was very inviting and attentive, the menu is also themed and fairly priced, we ordered "The Ford Galaxie" two eggs your way, a choice of meats, choice of toast or biscuits and home fries or grit - although the winner here in my opinion is the coffee it's delicious, strong and robust. Unfortunately everything here wasn't perfect the "West Creek Whipped Spread Butter Blend" is an abomination, it ruined everything we put it on, my bad for not asking for real butter after applying it to my toast, my grits and the English Muffin we ordered, it was inedible to the point we left everything on the plate this stuff touched it wasn't refrigerated as suggested on the label I'm guessing. I usually eat only real butter so what was I thinking - so my dilemma is how do I review this place fairly based on that stuff and the fact it ruined our food since we loved everything else.

The menu has about ten different burgers to choose from, as well as other sandwiches , salads, and even about ten breakfast items. All of the names of the items have a car reference since the restaurant was previously a filling station. The decor also has a car ambiance. I chose the mustang burger. It had American cheese, bacon, bbq sauce and an onion ring on it. It was very tasty. Side options were fries, coleslaw, sweet potato fries or onion rings. I went with the onion rings. Portions on the burgers and the sides were very good.

Fabulous! It's the 1/2 lb. The Rolls Royce Burger!! Blue cheese, bacon and grilled onions! Don't miss Obi's!

Inside we saw it was clean and new...great design. We sat at the bar and met, Geo, our bartender. As we arrived early, 5:00 pm, he had time to connect with us ... this is why we like sitting at the bar! His drinks were excellent! For appetizers, we ordered (1) calamari which was perfectly cooked (not rubbery) and had a delicious sweet and slightly hot sauce; (2) pork dumplings..perfect and (3) 6 oysters on the half shell ..very fresh and tasty! We were filling up fast but still had room for two sushi rolls which, again, were delicious! Just looking at the dessert menu filled us up! Another thumbs up to the manager who stopped by to check in and speak with us for about 5 minutes! If we lived in St Augustine, Kingfish Grill would certainly be a regular hangout! Great food, service and friendly staff. Perfect! A++

We glanced at the menu and ordered at the register. Bring cash! Helps local businesses keep more of their profit than paying high service fees for card payments. 3% charge for card swipes. I love the cash payment way over cards anyday but I'll leave that for a forum discussion. We sat outside and food arrived promptly. Ratings are as follows: * Kids Pancake 10/10 (fluffy, air, tasted like vanilla it was delicious. *French Toast 4/10 I could be wrong but I thought the menu said cinnamon roll on a brioche bread. Not sure tasted like regular white bread flat and not cinnamony. * Kids egg breakfast 10/10 she left nothing *Coffee regular self serve 10/10 dark roast! Delicious and fresh Total $37 could be because I paid with card since I only had a $20 on me. Nonetheless great spot, friendly service, and I loved the outside space.

The venue is on A1A, right by St Augustine Beach. This was our first time there. They serve food but we had dinner beforehand, so we only had drinks. It's a nice little venue though. The show itself was awesome and Mick was so nice to meet afterwards! Why am I giving a 5 star review when we didn't even try their food? I'm at fortunate to know a few people that many would consider to be famous in the world of music. I have tagged along with them when they've done meet & greets at venues of various sizes from hundreds of fans to thousands of fans. Many, MANY venues handle these things very poorly. It ends up leaving fans feel as if the artist doesn't care about them when it's actual the venue that is unprepared and/or is treating the fans that dirt. That was absolutley NOT the case at Cafe Eleven. Every person we encountered from the staff seemed genuinely concerned with making sure the fans had a good experience. For us, this started a week prior when they took the time to email us to double check something about our order because our order was a bit odd. My wife paid for part of the order and our friends paid for the other half. The venue actually took the time to reach out to make sure we knew everything needed to match up. We did know that ahead of time but the fact that they even bothered was a touch I don't think I've ever heard of another venue taking the time to do. Well done Cafe Eleven! Based on that alone, I wouldn't think twice about driving down from Jacksonville next time there's an event at Cafe Eleven that I'm interested in.

The texture was spot on--chewy on the inside with that essential slight crunch on the outside. Sometimes bagel shops treat coffee as an afterthought, but the iced coffee here was smooth, bold, and served over plenty of ice. It stayed cold even in the Florida humidity. The line can look intimidating because the space is small, but the staff moves with impressive speed. I was through the line and outside at a table in less than 10 minutes. They've clearly mastered the "morning rush" flow. If you're visiting on a weekend, get there before 10:00 AM. They are known to sell out of certain bagel flavors

Crucial Coffee Cafe

Crucial Coffee Cafe is one of those places that feels like you accidentally discovered it while…read morewandering around St. Augustine and then immediately start wondering how many other people know about it. First, the coffee. Absolutely spot on. A beautiful brew and exactly the kind of thing you want in your hand when you're starting a day of exploring the oldest city in the country. The lattes were excellent, the people were nice, and the coffee was doing all the heavy lifting it was supposed to do. Now, the building itself is part of the experience. It's an antique shack that looks like it may have been standing there since someone first decided Florida needed a coffee shop. Quaint, quirky, and definitely not your typical Starbucks-in-a-strip-mall experience. The business can be a little confusing because they offer coffee specialties, but also beer and wine. So depending on what time of day you visit, you can either caffeinate yourself for an adventure or sit back and let the day take a slightly different turn. Here's the move: order your coffee, walk outside, and grab a seat. Across the street, you've got a view of the river. A great cup of coffee, a historic setting, and water views while you wake up? That's a pretty tough way to start the day. Five stars. This is exactly the kind of unique, slightly quirky, locally flavored place that makes exploring St. Augustine fun.

I had a great experience at Island Ice Cream Cafe thanks to Kayli! She was so friendly, welcoming, and had such a positive attitude. She helped me with my order, made sure everything was perfect, and made the whole visit even better. You can tell she genuinely cares about customers and works hard to create a great experience. Outstanding customer service like hers is hard to find these days. Kayli definitely deserves a raise for all the hard work and kindness she shows every day! read more
