    Seating with a view
    Lala C.

    Saw the positive reviews so I thought I would pop by for a smoothie. Well, order ahead or don't be in a hurry as there are only 2 people working here. Very friendly but disorganized. Separate entrance from the outside is convenient and plenty of parking in front of the iheart building where the cafe is located. Seems to be popular for BLT and Cuban type sandwiches. Smoothie menu lists yogurt but they do not have any yogurt. Strike 1. When I address it ( after the smoothie is made) , I am informed that they have yogurt. Add a few minutes to waiting time for this to be completed. Strike 2 Smoothie is ok, would not go out of my way again to eat here.

    Cute cafe! It is in an industrial park. Look for the banners out front. We came here on a Saturday for breakfast. Hubby and I both got the bacon, egg, and grilled cheese. Sandwich has two eggs on it. It was really big. Hubby and I could have shared one. It was really good. There are plenty of other breakfast options. Owners were very nice. I would eat here again

    Cuban sandwich

    Great flavor on the Cuban sandwich. Price was a little higher than I would prefer to pay for a sandwich though they offer a discount to local businesses so that helped.

    El Cubano Sandwich

    Delicious Cuban here! Loved how efficient they were and the variety of options. Plenty of parking near by since it's at the bottom of the office building. Plenty of outdoor space or I door during the lunch hour. Honestly surprised they weren't busier.

    Cubano on rye - the best

    This is a hidden gem run by Dan, a true craftsman who has assembled a menu with his own creative spin on some classics. You could really tell how much he cares about each detail of the food that he will be serving just by the way he was running the kitchen. All of the ingredients in El Cubano were of great quality, and due to my obsession with Ryebread, I opted for that little change, and it made for the best Cuban I've ever had. It was loaded with meat and flavor, even some salami which gave it a nice touch. My wife ordered the smoked salmon croissant which was also the best I've ever had of this style by far! It was so good I almost got so lost in the flavor that I forgot I was driving. The croissant was perfectly toasted and topped with an over easy egg, avocado, pickled onion, cream cheese, of course some serious quality smoked salmon, and a special touch of craisins which gave it the sweet and salty that makes me salivate just thinking about it. Both of our sandwiches were so heavenly that we had to come back for the same order and regretted not making it back a third time, but definitely will next time we're in town. Dans passion for his creations shine through so obviously in the quality of the product, also in the way he described how to cook the egg with like four different adjectives to make sure it was done perfectly the way my wife wanted it. I had no clue you could describe how to cook an egg so in depth lol I had the opportunity to have a nice conversation with Dan and it's clear that he's generally just a great person which makes you want to support that much more. Many places serve great food but when the owner cares to get to know his clients and add to the experience it can almost feel like you're visiting a friend and this couldn't be a better example. With this good spirit, which reflects in his work and his demeanor, Dan will find success in whatever endeavor he chooses to pursue. It was a pleasure. Natasha who seemed to be the backbone of the kitchen also seemed to be such a nice person, ask her about her delicious cachapas! Tin, the new manager/owner has also setup a great Groupon deal. You can't go wrong here!

    I had the green smoothie (not the name, but close) last week and was oddly satisfied, the ingredients were fresh and very tropical. So I thought I give them a try with the food, I had the Cuban sandwich, you can really taste the slow-cooked pork is the star here, enhanced by a tangy marinade, simple condiments, and, of course, cheese. The owners is really personable and genuine. Great customer service, I will be a regular.

    Delicious! Natasha and Kiara prepared it perfectly. They were very kind and professional. The restaurant is clean and comfortable. I am very pleased, thank you !

    BLT, SO GOOD!!
    RaymondandJody Q.

    The Mangroves Cafe is AMAZING! We had smoothies, Cubano sandwiches, pizza bread, and the very BEST BLT that I have ever eaten! The staff is friendly & our cook was a VET. Go support those who fought for your freedom!!

    Excellent cuban

We were seated as soon as we arrived, and throughout our visit the service was really good. My friend and I were having a very hard time deciding, and when we asked the server, she flat out told us that the two things we were torn between were awesome and we should order both and split them. We got the shrimp and grits and the lobster Benedict. On their own, the grits weren't anything special, although they were texturally great. Now when you add the shrimp and gravy . . . This dish is a whole other deal. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, and the gravy was super well balances. It had the perfect level of spice. The lobster Benedict had a perfectly poached egg, and it worked so well. The mornay sauce was a lovely touch. I'd definitely order it again, but I would also definitely order the shrimp again. Long story short, our server was right, they were both amazing. I also got a standard Bloody Mary, which was solid. I would definitely go back to this place. It's got an upbeat, family friendly atmosphere, and I think it's a great spot for locals and out of towners alike. It's also well priced. I'd also love to try their beignets or French toast next time. They've also got a huge lunch/dinner menu that I'd definitely want to try if I were in town for longer.

Ambience was like your regular breakfast place or diner, but definitely family friendly. We were there with our 8 month old baby boy and felt comfortable. Food tasted pretty okay, we ordered coconut shrimp, fish n chips and chicken tacos for brunch! The fish was a little undercooked and the batter was still a bit wet inside. Other items were not bad. For drinks, I ordered their popular pomegranate mimosa which came really flat (no bubblies) and in a wine glass! I sent it back and got a mojito instead - which tasted a lot better! Additionally, we were not aware the breakfast menu closes at 12 pm and we were already seated, so kind of felt obligated to order from the lunch menu at around 12.05 pm! It was too early for a sea food lunch for us! We saw the table next to us had ordered breakfast just a few minutes before us but we were denied because it was already past noon. Overall a pretty average experience. I was expecting a little more authentic experience but turned out to be just like your local diner.

The location alone makes it a convenient and easy choice if you're staying nearby or heading out for a morning walk along the beach. Breakfast was exactly what you hope for at a casual beachside café. We had coffee, an egg sandwich with bacon, and a Western omelet with cheese. Everything was cooked fresh and made to order, and it definitely hit the spot to start the day. Simple, satisfying breakfast food done well. The service was great--friendly, attentive, and welcoming without feeling rushed. It's the kind of place where the staff makes you feel comfortable right away. Another thing that stood out was the pricing. For a beach location, the prices are very fair, which makes it an even better value considering the quality of the food and the location. If you're looking for a relaxed, no-frills breakfast with good food, great service, and an awesome location near the beach, Beach Shanty Cafe is well worth stopping by.

The brussel sprouts appetizer is HUGE. It was double the size I have received at other places, so took some back to the hotel for leftovers. They also came with a tasty dipping sauce that was unique as well. The Caesar salad was neutral; no strong flavor yet not distasteful. No anchovies taste either. I could take it or leave it. The filet steak was tender served over some mashed potatoes and thick asparagus wrapped in salty, yummy bacon. The smoky old fashioned and expresso martini (with Baileys added extra!) drinks were tasty. Make a reservation online and Uber/Lyft if you are close as it's easy in and out!
