I love being surprised by not only the flavors that Ray concocts but the great names he gives them. On this visit I had Thin Lizzy. Minty fresh ice cream with chunks of Girl Scout thin mints, creamy & minty. My husband decided to grab a pint from their freezer of chocolate with a name like James Brown . We brought friends this time who had never been here before and really loved it. One had his ice cream between 2 big chocolate chip cookies making it a giant flying saucer. (Toppings are included with this like chocolate sauce or sprinkles.) I only wish they were open during the day ( hours are usually 6/7 pm til 10/11) because sometimes you just want ice cream during the day.

The treat selection is dangerous (in the best way). Donuts, pastries, cakes everything looks amazing and somehow tastes even better. It's the kind of place where you go in for one thing and leave with a box. They also have a great breakfast menu, which makes it an easy weekend stop. Perfect for a quick bite or a relaxed morning. One of my favorite surprises was the market section especially the hot sauce selection. So many unique options, and you can purchase them! If you're in Jacksonville and love local spots with great food and a fun selection of goodies, this one is definitely worth the visit. Just go early it gets busy for a reason.

Up front, European Street Cafe wowed me from the start! It was just a wonderful classic-looking…read morecafe that has so much to offer! It has a large menu with many sandwiches, meats, sausages, among other great stuff to choose from. Our first moments here began by just navigating around the restaurant to see what it was all about. There are large number of wine and beer selections. Though I abstain from alcoholic beverages, I would guess that most are of the European variety - they have beer on the tap setup across from the dessert counter. After the quick self-tour and a conversation with the manager, we lodged in our seats and got ready to order. I actually was hoping the cafe offered speciality coffee like a latte, but that was quickly dashed when the server said they only served regular or decaf coffee. Initially I was disappointed but ordered one anyway. When it arrived and I dressed it up a little with some Splenda and Coffee Mate, I found it to be one the best regular cups of coffee I've had in a long time. We took a while to order because it is a sizable menu. However, I was sold immediately on the Rueben sandwich selections and just need to pick one. I settled on the classic Rueben, which was a mix of corned beef, pastrami, sauerkraut, cheese, a superb Thousand Island-type dressing on pumpernickel bread - it was delicious from start to finish! I will note that you can choose other breads and cheeses with the Ruebens. Some options may come at added cost. I'm glad it was large enough to take some home with me. My dearest chose the turkey Parisian. This was a splendid choice with a nice mix of excellent deli turkey, Brie, raspberry sauce, cucumber, and lettuce on a large croissant. Both sandwiches were more than worth the price of admission! Our server displayed excellent courtesy and care throughout our eating experience. I greatly appreciate the manager taking time to chat with me as well. I really felt good at European Street Cafe! With the fantastic artistry on the walls, the large setting of wooden tables and chairs well-spaced and well-organized on both sides of the interior has the look of a classic cafe that has been around for a good number of years. The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and has a nice outdoor patio area not far from the entrance. I think I found a great place to visit when I crave a Rueben sandwich! This one today felt like a Time Machine moment for me as my mom made them like this when I was a kiddo! Thanks for making this visit special today European Street Cafe! Recommend: VERY HIGH

The staff is warm, genuinely delightful, and makes you feel like a regular from the moment you walk through the door. Now let's talk pie. The coconut cream pie was incredible. The chocolate crème pie was incredible. But the key lime pie, has to be the best key lime pie in all of Florida. It was perfectly balanced, fresh, and exactly what a key lime pie should be. We tried several pies and there wasn't a single miss in the bunch. Every single slice was excellent! If you are anywhere near Atlantic Beach and you love pie, or even if you think you're just a casual pie person, get yourself to Pie Heaven. You will leave happier than you arrived, with a very full stomach and zero regrets.

There was a small patio with two tables in the front. I checked out the boards inside to see what pies were still available. I stopped by at roughly 1 PM. I wanted the coconut pie but that was gone and the employee suggested the coconut custard as she said it was her favorite. So I ordered one slice of coconut custard and a small chicken pot pie. I jumped into the pie after dinner later that evening. Oh my the pie was fabulous! Creamy and sweet with tons of coconut. But not overly sweet. The crust was flaky and delish also. Highly recommend the coconut custard! I waited a few days to heat the chicken pot pie in the oven. She added an instruction sheet in my bag which was helpful. The sheet explained how to heat up the pie as well as how long both the savory and sweet pies last once you take them home. The chicken pot pie was yummy! It was filled with lots of vegetables and plenty of chicken. The inside wasn't runny like most store-bought chicken pot pies but the filling was good! I wish the crust had gotten a little crunchier on the top. But maybe that's because I didn't bake it for three days. You can purchase slices of savory or sweet pies or whole pies. They are no longer taking orders for Thanksgiving but suggested you come by and grab one and freeze it.
