Highly recommend if you are in Destin.

Although this was not the place we originally planned for Saturday brunch, a long wait at…read moreBistrology caused us to shift our brunch plans here and just have a more reasonable wait. They were very packed here with customers elbow to elbow at every table the entire time we both waited and dined. So, it wasn't the most relaxing atmosphere but that could probably be fixed by going on a weekday or just earlier in the day when others are sleeping in. There were so many yummy food options here. I'm a savory breakfast/brunch girly, but with it being called The Pancakery I did want to give the pancakes a try. I liked that most options came with a side of pancakes so that was perfect for me to get both my sweet and savory fix. I chose the gulf shrimp omelette with a side of pancakes. I actually enjoyed the pancakes more! We were given warm syrup to go along with it. The omeletet was decent, just not too flavorful or memorable. The highlight of our visit was our sweet waitress. Im blanking on her name at the moment, but remember her mentioning she was from Nepal. She gave us each a pretty pink pen to keep. There was also a promotion where if you posted your pancakes on Instagram you got a free reusable bag. I loved the bag and it will always remind me of our visit!

On the main road here in Destin…read more The music sounds clubby inside. Considered the crab croissant, but the pics on here didn't look so good and the croissant didn't look golden brown or flaky, like I tend to favor. We ordered the spicy carb scramble, cup of coconut grits, iced coffee, less whipped cream, jerk chicken basket, island burger and Blue Mahoe beer. $51.71 for everything except the island burger and the Blue Mahoe beer. The iced coffee comes topped with whipped cream, it's mixed with chocolate. It's obviously very chocolatey as a result of the added chocolate. The Blue Mahoe beer is made with mango, it's different for sure. The base of the beer tastes like a Blue Moon, maybe. Shows mango cart on the cocktail menu, no idea what a mango cart means though. Service was good, although our waitress seemed like she might be new since she didn't know the specifics of the menu items. Not sure why I was thinking the jerk chicken would not be on the bone, so that made it a bit messier than planned. The island burger is spicy, my FIL enjoyed it. The spicy crab scramble was good. Could have better jam to go with the toast, the grape jelly didn't look anything like a jelly and was quite runny for my toast at least. The mixed berry was a bit thicker for spreading. The coconut grit was quite creamy, just a very subtle coconut flavor. The jerk chicken sauce is super flavorful and quite good. The cabbage slaw on the side was bland and seemed like an afterthought to me. The fries were partly over fried and as if the oil had saturated into a few of the fries to make them look translucent even. Still overall a nice lunch.

When I'd gotten back to the hotel I was irritated, because they didn't provide me any syrup. Needless to say, I didn't need the syrup, there were some preserves/ jelly included and it was amazing. They were perfectly cooked and they tasted amazing. The omelets were huge and they have these breakfast fries that were seasoned to perfection. All in all, I see why they had a long wait and line out the door. Next time we come, I'll definitely come early enough to eat inside.

We were told to sit anywhere we wanted and, once we knew what we wanted, just head up to the counter to place our order. We both decided on the breakfast burrito--my friend got theirs with bacon, while I went with ham. 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!

While staying in Destin, we wanted to try a breakfast place we haven't tried when we visited a year…read moreago. This place came up and we decided to go here one morning. It was confusing at first because on GPS it says breakfast table then Red Rooster Cafe when we get there. Hence the old Jeep in the front. We go in and wait to be seated. The inside to me kinda felt like I was in someone's house with all the old furniture, I thought it was cool. We were seated pretty quickly and took sometime to order off the menu. I got a Bacon, Medium eggs and toast plate with a side of fruit while my friend got hash browns with a biscuit. The breakfast was pretty filling and they actually made some pretty good coffee although I loaded mine with creamer. Our server was totally awesome and was cool about me asking for a to go box so I can feed my bread scraps to the seagulls. I think he told us where to go and what beach and they actually fly up to us. That was cool to engage in conversation with him. This would definitely be a great place to return to.
