The brews are good, the staff are good, the stools at the bar are uncomfortable and there are only a FEW small tables just outside, none inside. It is not a place to "meet friends" unless there are only a few friends. There are other bars in other areas of the place, but beer tasting is not available & only a few of the fresh brews are available in those areas. There is food available to order -- good bar foods. read more

What an adventure! But well worth the journey. This is actually part of a little "complex" that includes a beachy type restaurant, a game area (with pool table, etc.) in a separate building, a pool area in the interior courtyard and finally we arrived at the brewery which fronts the pool courtyard. The brewery tasting area is small, maybe 8-10 stools at a bar. There are also a few outside tables which we took advantage of. Server at the bar was super nice and helpful. Everyone there was quite friendly. Maybe because it's so small, you feel like a little community right away. All the brews are great. I think they rotate what they serve so just venture in and if you're not sure, just ask. We also got a beer to go and they did a great job with that! Worth a trip and a fun outing! read more

Opening day today, 4/21/22 offered 4 beers (plus a guest cider). I like the pace that the brewer is setting. All the beers were very good. The IPA was pretty classic West Coast, mildly hoppy, a little strong, but easy drinking. The Marzen is a great rendition of this style. It's malty, a little sweet, and very smooth. The 100 Oranges is advertised as a Belgian Single, but I'd say it's less Belgian, and more lager. The citrus and coriander come through nicely, but neither overwhelm. It's a summer beer. I didn't have the Brud Leicht, but consensus around me was that it was a very light version of a Michelob Ultra. For those that drink that style, you're covered. The building housing the brewery and bar is brand new. It's a clean and attractive space, albeit a little small. To get there, walk toward the north from the outside bar, through the building with the pool tables, out to the pool, the make a right to access the ramp and door to the taproom. Tanks are on display behind the bar. I like the number of taps on the wall, there's plenty of room for expansion. Cynthia was tending bar. If you're lucky enough to be there when she's working, you'll be well served. I'll be back. Next time I'll ride my bike to save a parking spot for you. Cheers to #5 in St Augs. read more

I didn't take any pictures, but Bootlegger's is a gem! Although owned and attached to Jack's, the entrance is separate and to the side (by the pool). It's worth the extra walk- JUST DO IT. The bar area inside is really lovely-- small- but perfect for conversation with Cynthia - the manager- and any other patrons who come in. Half of the outdoor area by the pool also has dedicated seating and brewery customers can also enjoy the pool when it's open! Playlist is awesome, daytime and nighttime vibe is awesome (thanks to Cynthia!). And for now, the brewery itself will be the only place in which you can try the beer, which is outstanding, especially when you consider it's a first batch! We tried them all in a flight (highly recommend doing that). There is currently the Brud light (named after the owner!) about 1000x better than it's cheap commercial namesake and TOTALLY crushable on a hot summer day at 3% ABV, a Mexican lager (Little Guitars) that is totally true to style and super drinkable as well (also low ABV hovering at 4%), 100 Oranges- a fantastic Belgian style blonde that has a great balance of malt without being too sweet, the Murder Red, which came out not red in color but tastes true to a traditional Irish Red (malty not too bitter), the Hey Boo Boo FANTASTIC west coast IPA- balanced hops and perfect piney, resin flavor. And finally- the Marzen lager (my favorite and was totally true to style!) Truly the best first batch of beer I've ever had from a new brewery-- can't wait to see what Brud comes up with next! I am SO happy our town has another brewery! And I think it will quickly be ranked one of the best in our area! read more

Bootlegger has some good brews, though I only had the IPA. My wife had a flight and enjoyed all the brews on the flight. This place is attached to a BBQ place and is not an independent brewery, so you can only get food from the BBQ spot, which is a bit annoying, but not a big deal. The service was great and the vibe was very low key, which was really nice. read more

Great brewery, if you can find it. It's supposed to be in Jack's BBQ but it's separate. I don't see a future for them of they don't get their marketing figured out. We were told to go around the building through the fence, around the pool, through the gate, and up the ramp and then go in the white door. Kind of ridiculous. Apparently there is a problem with the Bootlegger name. If he can stay in business with the small amount of people that were in there, good for him. I just know he could do way better with the beer that he serves. It was really good. The people that were in the restaurant, eating his barbecue raved about it. Imagine if he could get his crap together. If you can find it, I do recommend it. read more

Good beer but made us leave as they said we could not bring outside food because we got tacos next-door. Meaning we didn't get beer at the taco place just so we could support them. They said it's because they serve bbq which isn't advertised anyplace or offered anytime we've been there. Beer is okay but Bog brewing is better experience overall and has food right there. Also it was Father's Day and we were with our sleeping toddler. Person working also asked if we lived around there but last time we were there, only people, she talked to us quite a bit. Not sure what the vibe is they are going for but very odd for a location like theirs. You will see if you go. read more

this place is a must when traveling through Saint Augustine. The food is an absolute must stick in your mouth. From the corner bar to the tiki bar to the barn and to the brewery in the back it is quite an eclectic place and has something for everyone. Pool tables, public pool, which I might add, was up to par and nice and clean. And the staff were over the moon. I spoke to at least two dozen locals and I tell you when the locals eat there you know it's good. The brewery was amazing. Must try the guava kombucha. Cynthia was a doll ....from 1 to 10 I rate this place of nine only because I couldn't stay longer. if you want to experience true island life, this place is paramount!!!!.

My friend ordered us the Pork Belly Kimchi Fries, I got us an order of the Cheese Curds, and for my entree I got an order of the Asian Sticky Wings. I probably would have never ordered the kimchi fries on my own. Sometimes kimchi can be fickle and really hit or miss. It was definitely a hit here. More on the sweet and tangy side but worked really well. Fries seasoned perfectly, and the pork belly cubed and cooked to perfection. Out of all of the times I've been to Wicked Barley, these fries have to be one of the best items I've had from there. Cheese curds were pretty basic. Tasted great, but nothing to write home about. If you like Cheese curds, you'll enjoy theirs. I originally had my eye on the jerk chicken wings and I was warned by the waitress and my friend that they are REALLY hot. Jerk chicken is generally one of those thats right on the borderline of too hot for me. To give you an idea, if you're familiar with Butthutt BBQ's jerk chicken, theirs is as far as I can go for spice level. So I switched it up to be safe, and I am glad I did. Sweet and sticky, these had really great flavor inside and out. Would definitely get these again in the future. Brought a couple home to the hubby and he seemed to enjoy them too, and he normally doesn't like, what he refers to as, "sweet meat". I had three different beers in my favorite tasting style, sour. I had the PB&J sour, the mango sour, and the orange cream sour. The orange cream was my favorite of the 3. We enjoyed the sounds of the band Splittone in the background and enjoyed the whole vibe of our meal. I'm hoping to visit again on a future weekend and possibly bringing one of my pups along with me since they are dog friendly.

I'm at fortunate to know a few people that many would consider to be famous in the world of music. I have tagged along with them when they've done meet & greets at venues of various sizes from hundreds of fans to thousands of fans. Many, MANY venues handle these things very poorly. It ends up leaving fans feel as if the artist doesn't care about them when it's actual the venue that is unprepared and/or is treating the fans that dirt. That was absolutley NOT the case at Cafe Eleven. Every person we encountered from the staff seemed genuinely concerned with making sure the fans had a good experience. For us, this started a week prior when they took the time to email us to double check something about our order because our order was a bit odd. My wife paid for part of the order and our friends paid for the other half. The venue actually took the time to reach out to make sure we knew everything needed to match up. We did know that ahead of time but the fact that they even bothered was a touch I don't think I've ever heard of another venue taking the time to do. Well done Cafe Eleven! Based on that alone, I wouldn't think twice about driving down from Jacksonville next time there's an event at Cafe Eleven that I'm interested in.

Flavor was very good, but I feel it was a little pricey $27. My friend had the ceviche and she enjoyed. At 8 they switched the menu and the live music started. Service was good. Looks like a good place to have fun with friends

Schmagel's Bagels

Super fresh Bagels! Great Service…read more Vacationing in St Augustine. Stumbled upon this all day breakfast and lunch shop. It was so good, I went back the next day! The variety and quality of the bagels is great. Catherine, and crew are welcoming, personable, and professional. The outside patio is perfect for enjoying the weather in the mornings in St. Augustine. Come early... The bagels always sell out!

Located right in the heart of the historic district on Hypolita St., Schmagel's is exactly what…read moreyou want from a neighborhood bagel shop. It's got that classic, no-frills, "hole-in-the-wall" charm that feels authentic amidst all the tourist spots. The outdoor seating area is a total win--it's perfect for people-watching with a breeze while you fuel up for a walk down St. George Street. I went with a classic plain bagel. The texture was spot on--chewy on the inside with that essential slight crunch on the outside. Sometimes bagel shops treat coffee as an afterthought, but the iced coffee here was smooth, bold, and served over plenty of ice. It stayed cold even in the Florida humidity. The line can look intimidating because the space is small, but the staff moves with impressive speed. I was through the line and outside at a table in less than 10 minutes. They've clearly mastered the "morning rush" flow. If you're visiting on a weekend, get there before 10:00 AM. They are known to sell out of certain bagel flavors

Whole wheat everything bagel Egg, white American cheese, and scallion cream cheese.

They have oodles of tables outside as well as inside. My mom and I decided to stand at the cider bar and do the nine tastings for five dollars. They have three tastings that are a dry, a pumpkin pie, and a strawberry lime. They also have other tastings below that included in your nine tastings the lady helping us at the bar. Her name is Andrea and she was very knowledgeable about the product. She was giving us along with the ingredients of each cider, they just brewed a piña colada cider that does not have any dairy. My mom and I will definitely be back tomorrow for lunch as well as maybe getting a couple of their cider. They do recently have canned some of the cider that they have made. 10/10

The tacos are amazing and the cocktails are fresh, strong and reasonably priced…read more I came and ordered 3 tacos, and my husband had a cocktail. He was so impressed with the tacos, he ordered dinner (and he just ate). We got the Kingston (spicy and our favorite) the Killer (also really spicy, our second favorite ) and the Jimichurri (was good but overshadowed by the other two). We each had a marg and a gringo to drink and we are really happy. Very laid back atmosphere, you order at the counter. But clean, food is great and people like it. Also a lot of locals at the bar, which means that locals like it too.

I can't recall the name of the young lady we had unfortunately, but she was fantastic and so much fun. My family ended up buying a few bottles to take home with them. It was a nice local place to stop by and support. It had a really good vibe when you walked in. It looked like your typical local distillery room when you come on with the barrels. I don't go to St Augustine very often but if you love to get a taste of local spirits when you are visiting places I highly recommend this place.

There was 10 of us, but only 4 who drink beer. My sister and I enjoy wine and I spotted this gem right across the street! We split a tasting for $15 and tried 4 samplings of wine. Chardonnay- which wasn't dry enough for my sisters taste, cranberry- we both enjoyed this light wine, blueberry which was lightly sweet and lastly strawberry. The strawberries were harvested from Plant City and this was like summer in a bottle. I picked that one to take home. Even my sister was impressed with this bottle. Cranberry was her favorite. There were a couple other ladies who came in as we were finishing our tasting and they left with several bottles and very happy. I love the shop and I am sure to be back!
