The KOOKABURRA I…read morevisited The KOOKABURRA for the first time while my fiancée was having her wedding makeup done, and I was very pleased with the experience. The establishment offers on-street parking directly in front, which is convenient; however, spaces can be limited, so I recommend arriving early to secure a spot. The interior is spacious and well-appointed, and the staff were consistently courteous and professional. I ordered the cinnamon coffee and found it excellent--robust, well-balanced, and flavorful, not diluted as is unfortunately common at some other cafés. The quality and care in preparation were evident. Overall, The KOOKABURRA is a delightful and ethically run café. I plan to return and would recommend it to others seeking a welcoming atmosphere and a reliably good cup of coffee.

I followed up with a combo platter of French toast, sausage pattie's (not crap links like other joints), two sunny-side up eggs, grits with butter and toast. For the price - it was totally worth it.

Breakfast-forward this new shop is a great exemplification of how simple can be delicious. I was in search of parking for a coffeehouse down the road that didn't offer any free parking near its location (of course, because we're in st. Augustine right?). I came into the parking lot with the intention to walk over but something pulled me in. A quiet shop with free parking and few patrons inside off of king street? I had to be the first to try. I ordered french toast and a dirty chai that both came with a generous amount of sweet sugary and cinnamon goodness. After devouring my breakfast-dessert, I wanted to try something savory: a scrambled with home fries and corn beef hash. Make no mistake, I was already full, but that bowl topped it off perfectly. Leaving me so satiated all I could do was enjoy the music, the other customers and my chai. A successful morning made by supporting a small business with accessible parking. Go here.

We had the BEST experience at the Capybara Café in St. Augustine! We brought a group of very…read moreexcited Girl Scouts for our end-of-year trip, and it was such a fun and memorable experience for all of the girls. A huge shoutout to our tour guide, Daven, who was incredibly patient with our energetic group and made the experience even better. He was so knowledgeable and shared tons of fun facts about the capybaras that kept the girls engaged the entire time. You can tell he truly enjoys what he does! The capybaras were adorable, sweet, and such a unique experience. We're already talking about coming back to try some of the other animal café experiences they offer. Highly recommend!

Upon arrival, the check-in process was seamless, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. While waiting for our session, we spent time in a designated area with several charming animals, including rabbits, miniature goats, and ferrets. Once our time slot began, we were guided to the back in two small groups. We spent the first 30 minutes learning about and interacting with the capybaras, followed by a transition to a second room to meet a lemur and a wallaby. Overall, this was an amazing experience. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept the schedule running smoothly. This is a must-do activity in St. Augustine, and we look forward to visiting again soon.

We came back after visiting yesterday and loving the coffee, so we decided to try lunch this time…read more While the coffee and service are still great, the lunch was just okay. I ordered the salmon toast and unfortunately it wasn't very appealing, one small slice of salmon on bread, and for $10 it didn't feel worth it. They were also out of avocado, which was disappointing. I had the Baja bowl and it didn't quite hit the mark, the chicken tasted very bland. On a positive note, my fiance had the burger and really enjoyed it. Overall, I'd definitely come back, but mostly for coffee and breakfast, which we've had before and really enjoyed. It would be great if breakfast hours could be extended, as that's where this place really shines.

The mushroom tostadas were probably the best tostadas i've ever had. They were so flavorful and fresh I ate my whole plate. Definitely a must try if you're from or in the area.

Our experience here was so great that we returned the following night!…read more After arriving to St. Augustine, we decided to visit Sarbez as an option to get a quick dinner and also have some fun before heading back to our AirBnB. Our highlights include: - The ability to create customized grilled cheese sandwiches with tons of options to choose from. (And they were quite delicious) - The atmosphere and environment. - The firm stance in letting people know that ALL are welcome, and hatred of any kind would not be tolerated. No excuses. - Many gaming options in multiple rooms. - Being open late enough for us to return for a second visit after an evening concert at the ampitheatre.

This grilled cheese is stacked with cheddar, sausage, a fried egg, crispy hash browns, and their spicy mayo. It is hearty, rich, and packed with flavor in every bite.

Add in classic arcade games and a laid back atmosphere, and Sarbez! easily becomes a must stop when you are in St Augustine. Great food, fun drinks, and good energy all around.

Finally got a chance to stop in here for coffee and they have made a new loyal fan!…read more I tried out the black sesame latte with pistachio milk iced and it was delicious. There was already the nutty flavor from the sesame seeds and adding the pistachio milk gave another boost to this that I thoroughly enjoyed. Perfect amount of sweetness. Did not need anything extra added. It does make for a pricey cup of coffee but worth it for specialty drinks like this. There are health benefits to the black sesame too. Very cool, relaxing vibe here that is not pretentious. There are other Japanese coffee items on the menu which I can't wait to come back to try. The barista was super friendly and knows his stuff when asked about items on the menu. I should've asked if the haku-san cold brew was ice brewed (Kyoto style). Will have to ask next time. I also grabbed a pumpkin muffin and chocolate chip pistachio cookie. Both were delicious. This place serves tapas style food as well that we'll hopefully get a chance to sit down and try out one of these days.
