Fun concept and good food! It was busy when we went, but we were seated quickly. Food took a while to come out but it was well worth the wait, everything was fresh and very delicious. We really enjoyed the French toast and the eggs were perfectly cooked. A fun spot to go with a group and try a bit of everything. They also have a bar with first come seating available. read more

Ancient City Brunch Bar - Breakfast Board: French toast, bacon egg and cheese croissant, bacon, scrambled eggs, biscuit - Cafes Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

The place itself is adorable and service was great! The chocolate and white chocolate chai tea was decadent and like getting a cozy hug with every sip. Some of our party ordered from the buffet for $30 and some of us ordered a breakfast off the menu. The idea of all the breakfasts being served on a board is super cute but not at all conducive to a large party like ours. It would be perfect for couples or tables of 4 but for our large party of 12 it was a little silly as we all had to pass around the board to get our food. But it did make for a beautiful photo. The buffet was OKAY at best and not worth the price in my opinion. The gravy was very watery and bland and the pasta salad also had no flavor. The waffles were delicious though so you just had to find what's good to you. I ordered the basic breakfast with sausage, over medium eggs, and it comes with potatoes and a biscuit. Both my sausage and eggs were over cooked. I love a slightly runny egg over potatoes but my egg was over hard and some.. brown on one side and had lots of that crinkly plastic-like edge that nobody wants to eat. They have a huge espresso machine so I'm sure their lattes are delicious. I'd be willing to go try it again but it definitely wasn't my favorite brunch place. read more

husband found this place for breakfast, it's nearby to our hotel. The doco inside is very nice, modern and classy. The menu is extensive, be prepared for a lot of reading to do. I ordered their steak taco and husband got their simple egg breakfast. Wow, the presentation of the food on a board is impressive! Make food tastes better! love this place, so we decided to come back again tomorrow to try more item. And the chef Mo came to our table and very friendly! It's definitely a place you will want to repeat! read more

If I could give them 10 out of five stars, I would. I want to give a big shout out to the owner, Mo. She was so kind and welcoming, and ensures that her staff are too. I truly enjoyed this spot and I would say that if I'm in town again, I would come back! I highly recommend it because I enjoyed the food, the vibes, the music, and the ambience was perfect. I really like the concept of the brunch board as well. What a beautiful venue in downtown Saint Augustine. Below is my rating of the food we ordered: *Empanadas: 5/5 *French Toast Sticks: 5/5 *Egg, cheese, & sausage croissant: 5/5 *Orange Juice Mimosa: 5/5 I came back for the Sunday Brunch Buffet and I was NOT disappointed. Delicious food w/ excellent service. Mo and the waitstaff were still so kind (insert big heart here). read more

This was such a wonderful find! The atmosphere is great, very relaxing. The service was wonderful and the food was amazing!! The cheese grits are absolutely the best grits I've ever had - with 6 of us in our party we were able to share them, as well as the Bruncharcuterie boards we had (honeyed brie, zesty pimento and the cinnamon sugar trio). We enjoyed it so much we went back a second time and we were greeted by the owner and treated like old friends! We tried some different menu items (though we had to get those grits again!!) and everything was fantastic! If you are looking for a nice breakfast place in St A you need to go here; it was fantastic and it will be a regular stop every time I'm in St A. read more

Ancient City Brunch Bar - Bruncharcuterie Board - zesty pimento, honeyed brie and cinnamon sugar trio - Cafes Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

Food- too expensive to taste that average. Service- some great employees but interactions with owner made me so uncomfortable. Ambiance- nicely decorated, only thing they seem to have going for them? Overall disappointed, employees seemed stressed despite having great attitudes, and I couldn't help but do more digging in my social circle to sadly find out there's apparently been many situations of them failing to pay employees for a good amount of money. Don't give this business your money. read more

A very interesting experience! The food was great but the service was meh. My friend has a gluten allergy so she had to send back her hummus (it had crackers) but it took like 15 min for the hummus to come out. I guess the chickpeas take some time to mash up. Also there were many open tables but the wait was 30 min to get a table. I liked that they offered the menu on little tablets and I liked the inside decor of the restaurant. read more

This place is SUCH an upgrade from the old location! The restaurant is spacious, full of awesome decor, a huge wine cellar, and beautiful bar! I absolutely love this place!! Their brunch breakfast boards are tasty and reasonably priced for being in the middle of St Augustine. We also got their coffees, which were pretty tasty. Our server was absolutely hilarious and made the experience so much more enjoyable! And their menus are electronic and so cool! I was so impressed with this new place and the food was great! I would definitely recommend for brunch and drinks!! read more

Really enjoyed this spot! The atmosphere is clean, stylish, and just a little upscale without feeling stuffy. You can tell they put a lot of care into their dishes. I had the egg, bacon, and cheese sandwich, and it was fantastic -- perfectly cooked, flavorful, and definitely one of the better versions I've had anywhere. Everything we tried tasted fresh and well-prepared. Prices are on the higher side for what you get, but the quality mostly justifies it. If you're looking for a nice treat-yourself breakfast or brunch, this place is absolutely worth checking out! read more

Visited St. Augustine and found this gem by pure luck. I tried other "recommended" places around the small town, yet this one had the best food. I tried the French toast, and my partner tried the ham and cheese croissant, they were pretty tasty and both came in one long board (charcuterie board style) which made it easy to share. Have brunch and/or breakfast here over the other "popular" spots. Also service was amazing, but it was the same anywhere we went. Lastly, you can take cute pictures because the place has a nice clean ambience aesthetic. read more

Came here for brunch with my husband. Lovely restaurant. Food is served on wood boards and messages written on them. Service was very good our server was very funny. I ordered the French toast and sausage, and my husband ordered the steak and eggs. Our orders came combined in one board. Individual boards would have been cuter, I think. My French toast was a letdown. Tasted like toast with cinnamon Sprinkleed on it, and it was kinda cold. It didn't seem to be dipped in custard as I'm accustomed to. Big womp. My husband's steak eggs and potatoes were perfectly cooked and generous portion. I had a nice experience and glad I came. I would recommend this restaurant. And I'll order something different next time I visit. read more

Passing through the town and saw this place on tik tok had good brunch. We ordered eggs potatoes, bacon, croissant sandwich, and pancakes. The food was delicious.

Absolutely terrible service. We put our name down about two hours ago, and the "Owner" Troy said it would be within an hour and hour and a half and stated he would call me if closer than the time given. We showed up an hour and half later to check in. Troy, the manager, and a woman server to tell us they were closing even though the sign stated they closed at 4pm. The manager stated, "oh sorry I just got so busy." Troy told us, they would not be serving us even though we waited the time he told us to wait and never told us they were going to close. I had mentioned that, I wish he told us about this so we could have made different plans, instead of waiting and he then said, "oh I got so busy." Absolutely terrible service and no care for the people they are serving and the time they wasted. At about 1PM, I received a call from the restaurant about the mistake they made and how they would be happy to serve us. We are at a different restaurant now which is happy to serve us. I would be aware before putting name down and ask more questions before making arrangements about your trip. read more

Pros: great concept brunch with a full bar. Nice location, interior design Cons: first they brought us a wrong order (messed up both of our orders) so we had to wait extra time for them to fix it. Once they brought a correct order, turns out we didn't have any silverware. I got up, found a waitress asked for it. Still didn't get any. Once I was about to go fetch it myself another waiter realized why we are not eating and brought it to us. The food was waffle house grade but for a lot more money. Disappointed. Maybe their non-breakfast items are better. Never offered any coffee refills. Added 20% gratuity to the check. Once they saw our faces came back, said that they made a mistake and removed it. read more

The food was delicious. We split a turkey and cheese croissant, waffles and the Brie honey and crackers. The latte was perfect on a chilly morning. They also serve mimosas if you're in the mood for them. The restaurant was beautiful and the bar looked great. The service was lacking but maybe because it was the morning after thanksgiving. Would definitely come back to try their happy hour. read more

We tried this establishment when they first moved to their new location. I recommend this place! 1. We did the brunch bar. Please try the smoked salmon if it's still available. Its delicious. Bacon was crisp and the eggs were cooked properly. 2. The fruit was perfect. Very sweet. 3. The pastries were moist and flavorful 4. The caramel ice coffee was amazing 5. The mimosas were okay. 6. The tablets, even though they malfunctioned, were perfect especially for a large group. 7. Not kid friendly. 8. Very modern/ industrial feel 9. Pricing was average for the area. 10. Our server was amazing! He was so attentive and cheerful. Had decent jokes and recommendations. read more

Good location, food and service! One of the few spots open early on a Sunday morning. He had Belgian waffles and I had a GF Blueberry Muffin with steamed almond milk with tea for $24. I really appreciated they had GF and dairy free options. The presentation was so pretty and everything tasted excellent. Family Friendly and cute little place in a great location. read more

I always try to start with the positives- We made reservations and were seated promptly upon arrival. Atmosphere is bright and they had holiday decorations up. The booth was large and comfy. Unfortunately, prices are simply so overpriced that we will never return. I'm including a photo of yogurt that cost $12. It was supposed to have granola with it, and it did not. It was lightly lined with oaks at the bottom of this very tiny 'bowl'. Only a few pieces of fruit were added at the top. Our chai lattes were priced at $5 on the menu, but then we were charged an extra $1 on the receipt for milk. How else are you supposed to make this drink if not for milk?? Food comes out on a board and it was awkward for my party of 4 who kept reaching over for food. Portions were small. Service was slow for a weekend morning, and we left hungry and broke. I know this is Saint Augustine and you get caught in tourist prices, but this one was the most outrageous of all of our dining experiences. read more

This place was just the cutest place I've ever walked in. Nestled on a side street with other cute shops around. You're welcomed by friendly faces and a warm welcoming smile. The decor in this brunch bar makes it feel like home a little bit of grandma's feel where you know everything will be alright and the food will always be great. What I love most is how their food comes out on a charcuterie board plated in perfectly and cooked with love. The staff members here - Brie, Gabby and Cory I really can't say enough great things about them. Helpful, friendly, caring and just flat out awesome. Their hospitality was none other than the best we've had in a very long time. The food was excellent and the presentation tipped it over to fantastic. Waffles were hot and fluffy and they serve that real real bacon cooked just right. Their breakfast sandwiches are huge, I mean everything is cooked to order so you're getting hot off the grill. We will definitely be back here when we come to St. Augustine Make sure when you come to visit stop in and say hi to the Gabby, Brie and Cory they will definitely take great care of you and your loved ones. This was such a perfect brunch spot! WOW www.ancientcitybrunchbar.com @ancientcitybrunchbar read more

My new favorite place for breakfast! The ambiance is cute and classy. We sat in very cozy chairs and had the most delicious mimosas. The pancakes and french toast were perfect. Couches to sit on versus just tables and chairs. There is also a bar to sit at. Service was on point. I will be going back many times because I want to try almost everything on their menu... and drink more mimosas of course. read more

We sat down for about 10-15 minutes before we were rudely greeted. We never got her name and saw her twice in the almost hour we were sat there. When she did greet us she bluntly asked, "do you guys know what you want?". During our time there, another couple sat down and got their food before they got any kind of drinks and saw their server all of about 3 times. Food was good and so were the drinks but the atmosphere and service were terrible. When it was time for the check that was the second time we saw our server and she proceeded to hover over us waiting on payment. Keep in mind, we were still actively eating and finishing the drinks we ordered. At this point, just order to go if they offer that. It's only cute for the boards, not worth it read more

Horrible! First off, the server was great. We ordered two eggs, potatoes and sausage dish along with three pancakes. The pancakes came out black, the eggs were supposed to be medium, were hard, the potatoes had so much seasoning you couldn't even eat them, and to top it off the sausage was flatter than a terrible restaurant, burnt and dry. We ordered coffee and they told us they had run out. Served us a cappuccino with what tasted like sour milk, terrible! The women's bathroom was out of order, however, they didn't tell you this. Two of us stood in line before we realized that the men's was open. The paper dispenser did not work so towels were everywhere. The bathroom cleanliness was marginal. We were not happy with our experience, as we wasted an hour of our time and hungry - they did however, offer to remake our food, which we rightfully refused. The outcome to our dismay, they had us pay for our 2 terrible cappuccinos. Horrible experience, we left hungry without eating. The stress of the manager and general manager, along with the kitchen was extremely frustrating. Don't go here, if you do good luck. read more

Ordered pancakes and Fruit that completed our board. The other couple with us also had a ham, egg and cheese. Everyone enjoyed there breakfast. Wish we had ordered the potatoes. They looked good. Odd thing they do here is no condiments are keep on the table. They are all on a table by the front door. Nice small place to get bunch and coffee. read more

Disgusted with how we were treated. We arrived on Saturday at 1pm to be seated, the host (a man) came up to us and said "the kitchen is closed" we came back the following day, on Sunday at 11am hoping we would be sat, the same gentleman came up to us and asked if we had a reservation and my mother responded "your phone did not work and neither did the site" we were then turned away again. We were only a party of 3 adults and 1 child.. read more

Amazing food great atmosphere totally recommend. Must go! We went with friend and we all enjoyed!

I can only give them two stars for the cute board and concept. We came here based on all of the good Yelp reviews and I'm a sucker for a creative charcuterie board. They were out of stock on several basic items, like crackers and Prosecco...hello you're a brunch spot!I'm assuming this is due to the recent storm. However, this was not a problem for the other surrounding businesses. Our main issue was the rude and unprofessional staff. We were only one of two/three tables there and everyone could hear them, specifically the bartender, talking about his tip from a customer that was still there! Awkward! The staff was whispering and laughing while starring at guests at an uncomfortable level. The food was cute but just okay. The $12 bacon was oven baked and dry. The $12 single piece of quiche had foil in it. Everything else was meh! I'm being generous with my two stars! Do better! read more

We came here for my sister's bachelorette brunch, expecting a fun and celebratory experience, but unfortunately, it was anything but. From start to finish, the service was painfully slow--waiting an hour just for drinks is unacceptable, especially at a brunch spot. You'd almost expect the building to be full? But no there was barely any other people in the restaurant. To make matters worse, they were out of champagne, waffles, and biscuits. At brunch. Our server barely checked on us in the two hours we were there and didn't even bother writing down our orders, which led to multiple mistakes and missing dishes. When the food finally arrived, it was underwhelming at best, and the ambiance didn't help--so dimly lit that we could hardly see our plates. The food was cold and honestly gross. Overall, this was hands down one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. If you're looking for good service, decent food, or even just a lively atmosphere, I'd strongly recommend going anywhere else. I wish I could rate it zero stars but yelp won't let me. read more

Adorable cafe right off St. George street! Started our day here, initially sitting outside but Florida weather had other plans. As it started raining the employees were quick to help us move inside & cleaned a table off for us. First off, brunchuterie board? Yes please! Genius idea & perfect to share! Oddly enough our favorite item off the board ended up being the potatoes, so perfectly seasoned & cooked, def don't forget to add those on! Everything else was good as well & the quiche is huge. The cafe itself is small with few tables & shared seating is encouraged so hope you aren't shy. My chai tea latte was good as well. Overall a neat take on a breakfast board with great service & food. read more
