    Surfer Omelette with grits and toast
    Lindsay S.

    We ate here two mornings in a row because it was close to our hotel and we enjoyed it enough to come back! Just like Crabby's, "beachside" is in the name but it's more beachside adjacent, which is fine. We saw 2 local police officers and what we thought were other locals there, so we knew it must be good. The first morning hostess was very young and kinda had the Gen Z Stare about her, but she seated us just fine, if a bit unenthusiastically. Our server, who ended up taking care of us both mornings, was fantastic: very down to earth and personable. Oh and they have Coke Zero, my favorite! (Sometimes it's hard to find) I ordered the Breakfast Burrito with hash browns and my husband ordered the Chicken Fried Chicken with home fries. The description for my burrito says "eggs, cheese, sausage, and crushed avocado". But it was like 85% egg, 14% cheese and avocado, and maybe 1% sausage. I'm not even sure I would have known sausage was in it if the description had not said! It was good, but they could really stand to increase the sausage in the burrito. The hash browns were good, very crispy and simple. My husband loved his chicken and it also came with a huge serving of eggs, a biscuit, and home fries. He said those were a bit deceiving because they didn't seem like home fries - but they were still good. He really loved his breakfast and I enjoyed mine, but was a bit disappointed. The second morning's hostess was more friendly and we got the same server from the day before, who almost remembered our drink order! This time, I got the Surfer Omelette with grits and wheat toast and my husband got the Smokehouse with bacon and a biscuit. I loved this omelette more than the burrito although once again, it was a bit skimpy on the meat (this time, bacon instead of sausage) but it still had more than yesterday's burrito, which wouldn't have taken much. Still, I polished it off and was thoroughly pleased. My husband liked the Smokehouse but said yesterday's chicken was way better. His main disappointment was the biscuit - he could tell immediately that it was a leftover biscuit from yesterday. It was crumbly and cold, unlike the fresh warm biscuit from morning #1. So he and I had opposite experiences both days: he loved morning #1 but I loved morning #2. It's a cool place, with good service, food comes out fast and good, and they play classic rock or what I hear kids these days calling "Grandpa Rock"? Anyway, highly recommend this place if you're in St. Augustine!

    Yummy seafood crepes!

    We ate here two mornings on their outdoor patio while on our honeymoon, mainly because hubby likes breakfast all day offerings and I'm more of a bring on lunch girl. Because I'm a planner with a picky eating hubby, I always study the menus of restaurants beforehand so there are less disappointments. This one was a winner and the main draw in for me was the seafood crepes and they did not disappoint! Hubby had the big breakfast. Day two I had the sunrise burger with hash browns and all the hubby wanted was pancakes. Definitely a winner!

    Came here just on a Sunday morning and we didn't have to wait no time at all with around 10 people! Service was super fast and the server was extremely friendly . Food was fresh and it came as we order it! The omelette with the potatoes was delicious! Super cute diner style breakfast spot !

    Yummy love their biscuits and grits are delicious.

    Beachside Diner was fantastic. It had a great feel from the moment you walked in the door.. We split the shrimp and crabmeat crepes. They were AMAZING! We each had a hash browns casserole. The food was great. Our server, his name escapes me right now, sorry, he was there when we needed him, but he didn't hover. He seemed to know what we needed before we asked. The ambiance was a lot of fun. This place kept busy, and the staff did not appear, at any time, overwhelmed.

    Cobb salad

    Went for late Valentine's lunch. Hubby had the fish and chips and I had the Cobb salad with a mimosa. Both meals were great. Highly recommend this place and will will return again.

    Great service we had a table of thirteen and Max was our waitress who did a great job. She made sure everyone was taken care of. I had the Smokehouse Classic which was 2 Eggs, bacon, home fries and a bagel. Wife had the Neat Lovers omelette (4) eggs and split it with her sister. My over medium eggs were perfect not crazy about the home fries not what I expected. Otherwise everyone else's meals were excellent. My wife and sister both loved their omelette they split. The place has a great vibe love the atmosphere of the place. Will still give it 5 stars beside the potatoes

    Decor is fun - gives it a great atmosphere! Service was friendly, excellent and knowledgeable! Hair of the Dog Bloody Mary was great. The mix was not too spicy and tasted great! The marinated bean had a serious kick to it, though. The Brunch Tower Bloody Mary was huge! Same flavorful mix but enough chicken and waffle to serve on a side plate and take leftovers home. Coffee was excellent and refilled as needed. The 2-2-2-2 was great! A side of hash browns were also fantastic!!

    Protein Combo
    Megan E.

    My husband and I came in for a late breakfast on MLK and enjoyed a protein heavy breakfast. We got the protein combo that had eggs, bacon, and sausage. Very yummy. Service was very quick. Cute diner setting by the beach. They also have a military discount :)

    Corned Beef Hash
    Elena G.

    Great diner! The food was good, and unique, but stuck to the good diner feel. The wait for a table wasn't bad even on a busy Sunday morning. The service was wonderful- kind people, helpful. A little slow but honestly the place was slammed. The coffee was also great and the Bloody Mary was excellent! Definitely a top notch diner.

    Broken Egg & Chicken Biscuit
    Kate M.

    A perfect Beachside Diner the name says it all. Elevated diner food. Portions are huge. Recommend the chicken biscuit over and over their chicken is phenomenal. The crab and shrimp Benedict was fantastic with a side of hashbrowns. No one had complaints and service was excellent with the waiter refilling coffee often and giving suggestions. We will be back.

    Belgian Waffle, Hasbrown, Eggs
    Erica C.

    4.5 Service- Host didn't really smile. Waitress was amazing and super friendly. Vibe- super cute and retro inside, nice covered outside for fresh air. Food- Waffle was good, eggs were ok. Cheesy hasbrowns still had some crisp and received a thumbs up. Regular breakfast with gravy also had a thumbs up. Shrimp tacos- basic fried shrimp, but met the needs of my daughter. She added some of my avocado to them. Avocado toast- two pieces, lots of fresh avocado. Wheat toast, plainer- healthy option. French Dip- roast beef, but very good and flavorful. Bloody Mary- cucumber vodka infused in house, added datil for some spice. Very good with fresh veggies. Will be back!

    Simple but good!
    Dwight M.

    Very clean! Love this place! Has to be the best breakfast on the island. Always fresh and hot. You can make it simple or get a large breakfast with many options. Never tried lunch but menu looks great.

Therefore, this gets a long wait for breakfast/brunch. It's hard to get a parking spot but there's free parking across the street. They have a big waiting area next to the restaurant which is definitely needed as we ended up waiting like 45 minutes around 9:30 am on a Saturday. The food was definitely worth the wait though. I got the burrito smothered with sauce and cheese and the flavor was fantastic. Flavorful but not super spicy or anything. It's also HUGE. Highly recommend. Service is a little questionable, if it was quicker they could probably help with their long wait. It was hard to flag down our girl when we needed something & it took ages to get to check.

The service showed a real lack of knowledge and attentiveness. When I ordered whole milk for my coffee, the response was essentially "is half and half okay?" -- no, it is absolutely not okay. These are completely different in taste and calories, and it's not a reasonable substitute to casually suggest. What made it worse: oat milk, almond milk, and whole milk were all visibly sitting in the fridge right there from where I was seated at the bar. Zero effort to offer what was clearly available. The atmosphere didn't help either. The space feels like someone started building a café concept and never finished thinking it through. It's uninviting, disorganized, and oddly off -- not warm, not designed with the customer in mind. Nothing about the food, the presentation, or the space gives you a reason to choose this place over anywhere else. Not particularly tasty, not nicely decorated, not a vibe. Not sure what keeps people coming back, honestly.

The parking nearby is 2 hour on side streets, but if you need a parking garage there's one not too far. I highly recommend ordering a French press of coffee! It's very delicious! You will get 3 cups of high quality coffee to share at the table or have all to yourself. As far as dining al fresco, the front courtyard is beautiful! However, on our trip it was too cold to dine outside. We were seated at a large table inside that accommodated our large group. They had several tables inside, but I could see on a busy Sunday or Saturday morning this place would get waitlisted quickly. Everyone loved their meals. No complaints. I ordered the lobster roll.

Here's a breakdown: Eggs benedict: 1/5 The restaurant did not have pork so we had to substitute for regular bacon instead. The whole dish including the potatoes was cold and the hollandaise sauce also was not fresh. Bahn mi: 2/5 As pork was not available, we had to substitute with shrimp which sadly was very bland and did not go well with the sandwich. The bread also was too toasted for my liking. While there wasn't anything outrageously bad about the bahn mi, I've definitely had much better. Shakshuka: 4/5 Great flavor and cooked very nicely. I would definitely get this again!!! Only critique is again the dish was cold. Coffee: 4/5 I really enjoyed the French press coffee including the options for non-dairy milk! However, it was on the weaker side and slightly sour tasting. We will for sure need another cup of caffeine later. Overall, I may come back to try one of the toasts; however, for the price there are definitely much better plentiful options in St. Augustine.
