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.

An Absolute Gem in St. Augustine! If I could give Sweetwater…read moreCoffee Bar & Gallery ten stars, I would! 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!).

Sweetwater Coffee understood the assignment…read more I ordered the banana bread latte and let me just say... if banana bread and coffee had a personality, this would be it. It was smooth, cozy, and somehow tasted like a hug but also woke me up like I had responsibilities. This was much needed after we landed from cold Chicago, like "hey girl"! Perfect balance of flavor and caffeine, not overly sweet, and actually tasted like real coffee (which is rare these days). If you're in St. Augustine, do yourself a favor and stop here, you'll leave caffeinated, happy, and maybe a little motivated as well!

I ordered the peanut butter cold foam coffee topped with freeze-dried strawberries, and it tasted exactly like a PB&J sandwich in the best possible way. It was absolutely incredible. The atmosphere was welcoming, the drinks were thoughtfully crafted, and you can tell a lot of creativity goes into everything they do. If you're visiting St. Augustine and looking for something different from the typical coffee shop experience, I highly recommend stopping by and giving Myth & Legend a try.

My visit to Relampago Coffee in St. Augustine was a delightful experience. This charming coffee shop exudes warmth and coziness, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing coffee break. We ordered a mocha, a latte, and a blueberry muffin. The mocha had the perfect balance of rich chocolate and espresso, and the latte was expertly crafted with a smooth, creamy texture. The blueberry muffin was not only moist and delicious but also complemented our coffee choices wonderfully. It was a Sunday morning and it took a little too long to get our orders. But we enjoyed our coffee while gazing out of the windows, taking in the picturesque surroundings of St. Augustine. read more
