    Tito's Bloody Mary

    Busy busy spot! Long wait to be seated and it seemed like the host is trying to talk you out of staying. We had time to kill so we decided to wait. The food also took a long time to arrive but the server was apologetic about that and seemed genuine about it being out the norm. The food was good breakfast food and would be worth going back. The real reason we would not return is the noise inside. Just loud and seemed to echo already but then on top of it they were allowing guest to play their own music on their cell phones.

    My husband ordered a plain stack of pancakes and said they were really good. I told him it's a pancake place so they better be good...lol. He ordered sausage patties and eggs over easy on the side, which he also enjoyed. I'm gluten free and there was not a pancake option for me, which was disappointing. We were originally going to another restaurant in the area and I was looking forward to their gf pancakes but they were closed. I had the all meat omelette which had a ton of meat in it and cheesy grits which were good too. My order also came with a slice of Texas toast which I handed off to my husband. I was freezing on a Monday morning so you may want to bring a sweater or jacket. Our waitress of friendly and efficient. It looked like they had a terrific coffee bar too with optional flavors and other breakfast drinks.

    Amazing Breakfast! Busy place but definitely worth the wait! Delicious breakfast in a nicely decorated restaurant! Food was amazing!

    Be prepared to wait but also to have your mind blown! The pancakes are HUGE here. Everything is à la carte but don't get fooled. The pancake alone could feed an army. The food was so good, the iced coffee was ice coffee-ing, and the vibes were perfect. Everyone is so friendly and attentive and despite the long wait we weren't made to feel ignored. If you want to feel so full that you feel like you'll explode then come here.

    We had breakfast here. The name suggests breakfast is their operation and it was a good suggestion. We ate out front. The atmosphere was very pleasant with the open air. Dahlia served us and took very good care of us. The food was good. Know that they add 20% gratuities to groups. We had 6 in our party.

    Something we plan on trying next time

    Come hungry!!!!! I had the eggs, bacon and cinnamon pancakes. Incredible breakfast. My wife had the avocado toast. Server was very attentive and even brought a coffee to go. It was outstanding! Definitely worth it.

    The food was good but not great. My server was cool but not the best but I know she was busy so I'd blame that. She was just going through the motions. There was a wait but it seemed to move really fast.

    The short stack- amazing! The omelette- holy cow amazing! So much meat. And the steak was phenomenal. Pretty nice location, nice vibes but the food was the steal of the show. My wife and I sat at the bar and the bartender was amazing. We will definitely be back.

    My wife and I were in Destin for vacation and decided to do brunch at The Pancakery. My wife loves a fight of anything, so when she saw a flight of Mimosas, she had to try them. Heads up warning. The flight of Mimosas are not samples of various flavors, they are full sized Mimosas. I had to help her drink them, since that four is a lot to drink. I liked the cranberry and she liked the mango. My wife had the crepes (see photo) and I had the chorizo burrito. She loved the crepes. My burrito was good, but it really needed a big side of salsa. The restaurant is a nice little place in a strip center and the servers are good. The Pancakery is worth a try, but beware of the Mimosas.

    I definitely recommend planning ahead and joining their waitlist online *at least* an hour in advance! The wait for us was a bit long because we weren't aware of that, but it was so worth it. Very yummy, filling, and presentable. Staff is so kind, as well! We were seated outside and while it was very humid, it was a nice experience.

    My husband and I love having breakfast here. It's walking distance from our condo and we have never had a bad experience. The avocado toast is amazing!! Went again this morning and tried an omlett. We highly recommend. We are early birds so we've never had to wait for a table.

    Service was speedy and pleasant. There is indoor and outdoor (parking lot) seating. Inside it's a little tight with tables. Pancakes were good, light and fluffy - good size - nothing to write home about, have definitely had better ones. The name is a little misleading if you like pancakes as they are just average. Prices were somewhat typical for breakfast 10+. Sausages were a fail for almost $5 - 2 small jimmy dean type and not really even fresh/skip that.

    We visited The Local Market because we kept hearing they had "the best Cuban in Destin." After…read moreeating there, I honestly do not understand the hype at all. First off, this is not a real Cuban sandwich. The bread was completely wrong. Real Cuban bread, especially if you've ever had one from Ybor City in Tampa, has a very specific texture and press. I even explained before ordering that I only wanted the outside pressed and toasted, while the inside stays cool. That's how an authentic Cuban is made. Instead, they brought out a sandwich that was heated completely through. The meat, cheese, everything inside was hot. It completely ruined the sandwich. When I politely asked about it, the employee seemed irritated and had an attitude about remaking it. They eventually brought another one out, but honestly it still was not good. The bread tasted wrong and the sandwich itself just wasn't enjoyable. It got worse from there. My grandson ordered chicken tenders and fries. The tenders were bad, and the fries tasted like old grease that should have been changed hours earlier. My wife ordered a shredded chicken and cheese sandwich that honestly smelled questionable, like the chicken may have been turning. The final straw was the fruit cup having visible mold growing in it. At that point we lost our appetite and decided to leave. Very disappointing experience overall. Poor food quality, bad execution, and not worth the money. We will not be returning.

    Gotta love local!!!…read more Got some pizza here on a week day during our Fl summer vaca b/c we were looking for something locally owened. Got the hawaiian, pepperoni and cheesy bread. All super good! Crust was a thin crust, not too paper thin though, so a nice in between of thin and regular. The cheesy bread was SOOOO good! The cheese on the bread was nice and thick and gooey! A+++ on the cheese bread in my opinion. Great helping of cheese. So if you just want cheesy bread that's light or mid on the cheese I would recommend clarifying your preference b/c they're serious about the CHEESE part of the bread! Called ahead to see what the busiest times are and typical wait times, b/c wasn't sure if we should order assuming longer wait times or if we should wait to order until closer to being ready to be hungry enough for everyone to eat. Called and the gal on the phone was SOOO nice and friendly, advised week day order before 5pm and will be ready within 30 mins. Advised we'll order before 5 and will probably put order online and she asked for my name and advised she'll keep an eye for my name to come through, which I thought was just an extra step of nice courtesy that I wasn't expecting and just thought that was so thoughtful! Was about $90 for two big pizzas and the cheesy bread, but SO worth it. The pizzas were also BIG! So was very happy with the portion sizes. Happy to spend this money for the quality and supporting local owned establishments that put out quality product! I would recommend purchasing here over other franchised chains.

The burritos came out on paper plates with plastic utensils, keeping things very casual and laid-back. The burritos were cooked perfectly and came out fresh, rather than sitting around. The potatoes that came with them were great as well and paired nicely with the burrito. Overall, Cafe Destin is a great casual spot for breakfast or lunch. The food was fresh, the service was friendly, and everything came out just right. I'd definitely recommend giving Cafe Destin a try!
