Supposed to be the best wings around. Not compared to NY wings. I wasn't a fan of the double wing. The waffles fries were very good and the pizza was great. The dough tasted home made. Very cheesy and cooked to perfection. Served very hot and fresh! Great service. Fun atmosphere but the floors and tables were sticky. read more

We checked out Candlelight South to watch some football. I tried the Jai Alai beer which was so good. We also got fried pickles, boom boom shrimp and mozzarella sticks. All were so tasty and just great bar food in general. Service was also really good, our server was very attentive. We would definitely stop by again. read more

Awesome wings known for their full wings. The boneless chicken wings are pieces of chicken breast lightly breaded and delicious. The sweet potato fries were outstanding too. Tons of beer options too. Great local spot to watch all the games. Service was attentive and friendly too. Totally a hidden local gem. read more

Came in to watch some Sunday night football. Fun and lively crowd. Had some wings, they lived up to the hype. Great place to watch football.

Candlelight South - Delicious Food & Cozy Atmosphere Candlelight South is such a charming spot in Saint Augustine! The food is always delicious -- everything I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect place for a nice dinner out. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the service could be a bit quicker, and our waitress was a little forgetful about a few things during our visit. It didn't ruin the experience, but it's something that could make the dining experience even better. read more

Don't be fooled by the name of this establishment. The place is a super relaxed and casual sports bar. There is a bar area with high top seats and also an area with sit down booths and tables. They have a wide variety of craft beers, wine, and a full service bar. Plenty of TV's with your favorite sports game on. What makes the Candlelight stand out is their above average bar food. They have all of your favorites such as wings (known for their bone-in and boneless wings with a large variety of sauces) - burgers - quesadillas- fries - tater tots - sweet potato fries and numerous appetizers - but the quality and quantity of what you get for the price is awesome!! A great place to visit if you are in the St Augustine, FL area for a good time enjoying some nice drinks and tasty food. read more

This is the place to go in St Augustine if you enjoy sports, beer, wings and fun. We are from outta town and we wanted a local bar with a dive feeling and we found it. The staff was so nice and attentive and it was located right before the bridge to old town. The wings were so good! They were crispy, and the sauce was spicy how I like it. The beers were cold and flowing. We went there twice in the 2 days we were there. I will definitely be back. read more

Was asking for the best wings in St. Augustine. Was not steered wrong! Came out hot and tasted very fresh. I got the Thai chili option. Partner had a burger. A few days later he is still talking about it. Just a real low key vibe, restaurant was filled with a mix of locals and tourists. I really enjoyed our server. She was so friendly and attentive. Didn't get annoyed that I had a lot of questions. Have never had a Hawaiian mule, it was strong and tasty. Great place! read more

Wow! Let me start by saying Best Wings I have ever tasted! I got a tip (from a local artist) that Candlelight is a must go to for locals and to order the wings Crispy -Hot -Parmesan! The bar service is great. Cold drinks a nice patio and Sporting events on the big screens inside. It's a good time! Don't be in a rush, excellence takes time! Take my word for it, order extra, you will want to take some wings home with you! read more

Not for us. We were told wings are great? If you like wings together tip n drum then you'll be ok. For us I'd rather have them split. We ordered burgers. Took an hour. For the food to come the burger was a frozen patty (perfectly round). And tasted freezer burned. Really no flavor. To the meat. The place is packed and I thought that was a good thing. But no for us. After wards all you can taste is old oil taste from the burgers and fries mozzarella sticks were ordered to. That would have been good if we got our marinara sauce to go with it. Staff was friendly.think maybe 3 stars if the food was faster but 2 is what I think is deserved. Maybe just drinks there and that's it read more

Servers were rude. The inside was dirty. It didnt even feel clean being in there. My food was cold, unseasoned. Whatever happened to the Kitchen over the last 2 years has ruined this place. Used to be a great place to stop. Great people. Greag vibes. It's run down. Dont waste your time or money read more

Excellent waitress, and good food, or what you would expect from a restaurant on the strip. Not over the top but definitely worth giving a try. My quesadilla sandwich was good but chips could have been saltier. Wife really liked her sandwich and the fries were nice and crispy. Great selection of local beers, and some funky mixed drinks. Crowd was revved up for march madness, which is what you want in a bar/restaurant later on at night. read more

Great great place!! Cody the bartender was awesome. The food was very good!! Great wings!!

Wow! I never knew they were there. Service was wonderful. Nachos were huge and delicious!. The best fried green tomatoes I've EVER had. Good prices too. I Will be going back...and taking friends! read more

I would say yes, this is a great place for the sports bar experience. Great food, great service and great sports view environment. Yes, the wings are the feature dining food but tried something different and the Cheesy Dank Bowl is delicious . The Mac n cheese is done right, the Mac n Cheese alone is great but adding the chicken put my soul at ease. You can add any flavor to the chicken from not spicy to X-Hot, I choose Caribbean BBQ and BOOM , tastebud magic! Not a bad seat in the house for watch a sporting event or SportsCenter. Outdoor dining an option. Takeout an option but why with the great service. A walk across the Bridge of Lions from beautiful downtown St. Augustine. Don't believe me or other reviews, stop by n try. Taste and see the food is good. read more

Constant candlelight customer frequent customer at the Scarsdale location and it's awesome. I've been to this location a few times prior to my last visit and no complaints. BUT it has went down hill for sure. I was told it's not good anymore but I was like no way how. I went with my wife and 3 kids and the wings raw on the inside and zero crisp. Sent them back and they made them crispy but had an unusual taste to them. We ordered the 15 (30) wings and it was horrible. Not edible. I mean my son and I had a wing that when we bit in and started chewing we had to spit out into a napkin. My daughter that is 4 got the boneless wing and were okay I guess. We ordered waffle fries and they were good and an order of crinkle cut fries that were good pretty much what we ate out of the food. I mean you can't mess up ready to fry fries smh. The wings for 51 bucks was money donated since they pretty much went into the trash. The place was dirty and not cleaned well. The bathroom a disaster. I mean it wasn't busy so why the lack of cleaning and house keeping. Like I said me and the family are big wing fans and were highly disappointed. For 126.00 dollars for an order of wings, two orders of fries and order of boneless wings never again. We left disgusted and highly disappointed. Zero stars if I could give zero stars. read more

We stopped for a quick late dinner on a Thursday night. We sat at the bar and the bartender was full of good conversation and service! They were anticipating the Amphitheater after crowd and willing to stay open for them! Great to have somewhere later in the evening on the island to go! I highly recommend the BLT on Wheat - you can't go wrong!! read more

Decided last minute I wanted some wings. A lot of restaurants in the area close around 10pm this spot stays open till 12AM so that saved the day. Great little sports bar vibe. The weather was nice so me and my guest decided on sitting out side. We had the waitress Samantha She had a great/warming personality and very knowledgeable about the menu. Decided on the dry rub wings(A MUST HAVE!). The wings were great honestly the best wings I've head in along time! Had some cheese fries they needed a little salt. Mozzarella Sticks were okay but the drinks were strong so they definitely didn't disappoint. read more

Today's lunch/dinner was the Firecracker Shrimp for starters. They were cooked perfectly and tossed into a sauce that had the flavor profile of spice, but to where my 5-year-old daughter ate them. And she doesn't eat shrimp! Gave her the "It's chicken," and she ate nearly the whole dish. The main course was the 5 (really 10) hot garlic parmesan wings with blue cheese. Complements to the chef that cooked up my meal! 15 out of 10. Will recommend it! read more

Food: vasts amounts of sweet potato fries. Burnt the first time and the replacement was almost burnt too. The server did ask if the second batch was okay, but we all chose to not respond because if she couldn't tell by looking at it, the cook could not care less. Jalapeño poppers - copious amounts of breading- so much that you could just eat the breading and be satisfied, but the breading was tasteless. French dip sandwich: the meat was old and very dry. It may not be a popular choice so better not served. Service: they were not excessively busy but finding a pen to take our order took 10 minutes. It just took a toll on the experience. Ambience was standard read more

We came here 3 years ago and I was bound and determined to come back this year. Traveling day we just want good bar food ya know? It was crowded and that's what we look for because then ya know it's good! Such good food! We even brought the kids and it was fine! Little loud but what do you expect from a bar so we didn't mind! But Forreal get fried banana peppers. They are the best! I made my husband put down his wings so I could snap a picture lol they didn't give us an eaten wing! read more

Frequent Candlelight to get wings. Tonight was terrible. Ordered CRISPY wings and a side of tots. Over cooked Tots were brought the table and the wings didn't come until about 10 minutes later. Had to get my own ketchup and no side plates were given. Wings arrived swimming in sauce (see picture). Showed the server she acted like it was no big deal. Told her to take them off the check and we left. She had a major attitude. From the beginning service was terrible. Probably 8 employees sitting doing nothing on their phones. Disappointed as I'm local that USED TOO frequent and bring ppl from out of town. read more

Me and my fiancé usually tend to stop and grab food from here when we're visiting St. Augustine because it is one of the only places that is open late and the food has been great every time that we have ordered to-go. This recent trip I decided to get a cheeseburger and it came with side options, of which I chose fries. The burger was cooked very nicely and the cheese was melted perfectly. The bread of the bun was also very soft and all of the food combined to a very nice flavor. The fries were good but I had to add a little salt to them to make them to my taste. My fiancé got the chicken philly and in it was Grilled Chicken, it was also loaded up with sautéed onions, sautéed peppers and covered in their homemade cheese sauce. I am not crazy for cheese sauces but this one was amazing! Overall it is a great little place that seems to be very local in terms of the customers so everyone is very friendly and knows each other. Everyone I interacted with that was working there was also friendly and very attentive! read more

Spent a short time in St Augustine and this pub was across the street from our motel..how convenient ?Well,it was.Even though it was obvious we were tourists the staff treated us like regular customers.Ate there a couple of times and took some chowder and chilli back to our room on our last night.Had flounder on one occasion and that wasn't too bad,batter could have been lighter,but a good meal none the less.Lots of tv's,piped in music,outdoor seating,attentive staff.A ten minute walk would have you in St Augustine historical district,the other tourists! and busy,bars/restaurants.Nice to have this option the other side of the bridge,a bit quieter but with several choices to wine and dine. read more

Not what it used to be. Our waitress was inattentive/ invisible. The owner(?) was trying to pick up the slack. We were charged for premium liquors when we ordered happy hour wells. (We got wells.). This is a place we used to go to every few weeks the past few winters. It's always had a dive bar charm, but it's unlikely we will be going back. read more

We arrived in St. Augustine after 9 pm and almost everything close to our AirBnb was closed, so we decided to give Candlelight a try for food. It was the only place open with food nearby, and we we're not disappointed. We tried their famous wings, they were delicious. They give you the whole wing! We also tried their shrimp dinner with the sweet potatoes fries. The dipping sauce for their sweet potato fries is AMAZING! I would buy that by the bottle. Our waiter was so nice. If you're looking for late night eats or some good food at a good price give them a try! read more

I randomly chose this location bc it was the weekend before New Years and Historic downtown was flooded with people trying to park and I was meeting others to watch our favorite football teams (Me: New Orleans Saints, Others: Jacksonville Jaguars). Since this was the closes restaurant to Historic Downtown, Sunday Fun Day, I figured we could walk over the Lions Bridge afterwards to wander Historic St Augustine. Which ended up being a great idea! This place was surprisingly amazing. From the outside, it appears run down but when you enter the building everything was clean and well maintained. The outside does have a large nice porch for those beautiful sunny Florida days. When you enter, don't expect someone to sit you, all seating is first come first serve so grab a seat. The restaurant has a dividing wall that separates the "Bar" area and "Restaurant" area but no matter where you sit there are lots of TVs, so great for game days! We were able to watch both games, due to the amount of TVs. I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger and Crinkle fries. The burger was so juicy and delicious, it tasted as if it just came off an outdoor BBQ grill and don't skip on the Homemade Burger Sauce! I added the sauce to my burger and used some to dip fries, it was sooo Yummy! On Sundays they have $5 open to close drink specials which include Candlelight Bloody Marys, Classic Bloody Marys, Mimosas, and loaded Coronas. I had a Mimosa and loaded Corona, both were ice cold and tasty! I like they make your mimosa using a mini Champagne bottle and they give you the bottle that contains the reminder of the champagne for a refill. They also do this with your loaded Corona, they actually bring you a shot glass with the corona they poured out, in order, to add the shot of Bacardi! You get what you pay for, which is an awesome concept! This place is great for friends, family, or just single seating. I definitely plan to revisit and look forward to trying some other food options, as everything looked tasty! read more

We ordered chicken bacon ranch quesadilla and it came out burnt. We took a couple of bites of one quarter of it and couldn't eat anymore because it tasted very burnt. Although the bartender could clearly see it was burnt, my husband also pointed it out to her as well. All she said was can I get you anything else and brought our check with the quesadilla still on the check. We really wanted to like the place since they serve all the drinks we both prefer and we come to St Augustine often, but in my opinion if you aren't a "regular" customer there, then you are out of luck. read more
