Which I did not enjoy and was heavily let down. But the service and quickness about pumping out food and drinks made up for it. Would recommend!

The establishment offers on-street parking directly in front, which is convenient; however, spaces can be limited, so I recommend arriving early to secure a spot. The interior is spacious and well-appointed, and the staff were consistently courteous and professional. I ordered the cinnamon coffee and found it excellent--robust, well-balanced, and flavorful, not diluted as is unfortunately common at some other cafés. The quality and care in preparation were evident. Overall, The KOOKABURRA is a delightful and ethically run café. I plan to return and would recommend it to others seeking a welcoming atmosphere and a reliably good cup of coffee.

We rolled in on a ridiculously hot day just 15 minutes before their 3:00 PM closing time. We were celebrating my sister, so we ordered a bunch of fun drinks and sheepishly asked if it was okay to just finish them while they closed up. They didn't just say it was fine--they made us feel completely at home! Here is why you absolutely must stop in if you are in the area: The Drinks: We had a blast tasting everyone's orders. My Lavender Lemonade was completely on the money--exactly what I needed on a sweltering day! The Amazing Staff: Ashlynn was an absolute doll. She was so sweet and accommodating, even at the very end of her shift. Above-and-Beyond Hospitality: The owner, Mike, is simply awesome. He came over to chat, found out we were celebrating my sister, and hooked her up with a free refill! But the magic didn't stop there. We mentioned we were having a party for my sister later, and Mike went out of his way to give us bagels and this marvelous butter-flavored cream cheese that was literally to die for! He even packed up some extra so we'd have plenty for our bagels later. I cannot wait to come back to St. Augustine just to stop by this wonderful place again. I absolutely love it here. Please make sure you add it to your itinerary (just remember they close at 3 PM!).

We also witnessed a group being turned away rather abruptly. They may have been a little rowdy, but when we spoke with them, they seemed respectful and not disruptive. I understand emergencies or staffing issues can happen, but the way the situation was handled came across as unnecessarily rude. I also hope the difference in skin tone between the group who was turned away and the individuals who were served immediately beforehand with fresh full drinks was purely coincidental, as I would hate to think otherwise. Hopefully this was an isolated incident. Overall, don't think we will be back which is unfortunate because we had a very good experience the first time we came here. The second time we came, they were closed an hour and a half before posted closing. Came back here for a third time and left empty handed and with uncertainties.

Ayla's knowledge about the different ice cream flavors and her enthusiasm for the products were evident. She went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience, even recommending some unique toppings that perfectly complemented my choice. Her friendly and attentive demeanor made the visit truly enjoyable. Overall, Ayla's outstanding customer service made my visit to the ice cream shop memorable.

The location was clean and welcoming. The unique variety of flavors were refreshing. I tried the cacao nibs which were amazing. The ice cream was wonderful!
