Absolutely amazing! La Amapola Cafe is a true hidden gem, and I especially love that it is a female Puerto Rican-owned local business. You can feel the pride in the culture and the care that goes into the food. The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentic, with the comforting flavors you expect from great Puerto Rican cooking. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere made us feel right at home. It's always special to find a locally owned business that represents Puerto Rican culture so well. If you're looking for delicious Puerto Rican food and a place where you're treated like family, I highly recommend supporting La Amapola Cafe. We will definitely be back!

This place is so amazing. It definitely gives the authentic boriqua feel from the island with a modern twist. Love the variety of dishes and pastries. Do you need a relaxing loving place to unwind and enjoy the flavoring blast experience. Come here!

Polvorones and a Tornillo
Kelly M.

I was happy to see a bakery so close to my home. Visiting with my youngest littles, I found that I really enjoyed the pastries and cookies. The Polvorones were a buttery cookies with a guava center. We also had a few with just sprinkles. The Tornillo was a creamy filling of cream cheese and a sweet guava stuffed in a flaky horn pastry, amazing! Unfortunately, if you are in a hurry, you may want to rethink visiting. It took us 20 minutes to order, and receive 6 cookies, a pastry, and a juice boxes. (Two other customers in building) Also, the dining area has nice tables and couches to sit but it was dark at 9:30 am. I didn't find it very inviting.

We purchased a La Amapola Cafe coffee mug.

We had an amazing experience at La Amapola Cafe! The food was so delicious; we kept returning to the counter to order more. I can't speak highly enough about the banana pudding. The ambience of the café was nice and inviting. I love what the owner stands for; she is a wonderful, hard-working Christian woman. Go support them!

La Amapola latte---just yummm
Vanessa W.

Stopped in here this afternoon and picked up the La Amapola latte, gf cake and a rather enormous chocolate chip cookie filled with chocolate hazelnut. The latte was absolutely wonderful! Smooth and rich without being heavy the latte had just enough spice to make it a warm kiss on a very cold and cloudy day. The gf cake was rich and I definitely recommend you share it as it's plenty of two. Since I'm gluten free I didn't try the cookie but I'm pretty sure my daughter will love it. This place is tucked away like a hidden gem.

Dubai Chocolate cookie

Shoutout to our local community heroes like Ian and crew! This little treasure chest is full of authentic Puerto Rican food. Breakfast, brunch, lunch.... You can take the love!! Fresh pastries, amazing coffee, and traditional savories!!! We were well taken care of by the one and only Ian!!! Smart, professional, and knowledgeable. He introduced me to their Dubai chocolate cookie!! This is the perfect way to sample their play on the viral chocolate! I was impressed that this had the legendary crunch of kunefe!!!! And this was a perfect pairing to my latte!!! I love the rich coffees here! Espresso has so many flavors. I came wait to come back!!! This venue is clean, cozy, and welcoming! Try it!!! You're not going to regret it!!

We stopped in after googling " coffee near us" while we were in St Augustine. I'm so glad we did! The service was friendly, and welcoming. They have a good selection of coffees and pastries as well as a breakfast menu. The seating was comfortable and ample. Very clean too! My Cortado was excellent. My husband had fresh squeezed orange juice, and it was exactly that! They squeeze the juice to order! Our pastries were fresh, and delicious. My husband was very pleased with his breakfast sandwich too. I highly recommend this great little cafe. They also had some sofas available for comfortable seating, with games stored neatly on a shelf. It would be fun to have coffee and play a game.

A slice of pistachio and coconut cake
Roger C.

After we found out a new local Puerto Rican bakery and cafe had opened on U.S. 1 in Saint Augustine Shores we headed there pretty much immediately. This is a nice space with indoor tables and a large pastry case with a dozen or more desserts. We picked a chocolate tornillo, which is a cone-shaped pastry with filling, and a pleasantly green slice of coconut and pistachio cake. The tornillo was good with the right amount of pastry flakiness. The cake was incredible. Coconut and pistachio is a combination I didn't expect to work so well together. This is a cake to bring out of town visitors to try.

Cynthia, Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Everyone…read moreelse reading this, I need to let you know that the amazing customer service I just experienced with Cynthia was second to none. Back story- my four year old son is staying/vacationing with my parents, his grandparents, for a few weeks this summer and when their journey took them to a friends house in East Moriches this week I really wanted to send him a special treat to remind him how much me and his father love him! Google searching lead me to Cynthia and I sent a message to her through her website. She answered almost immediately and made my wish to send my son cupcakes a reality. And it was so simple and sweet! She personally delivered the cupcakes just an hour or so ago and he ate two while skyping with me. He said they are delicious! Again, I am completely happy with this experience and I highly recommend Cynthia's to you!

Cynthia is so easy to work with! I hired her for a couple hundred cupcakes for a party I was…read morearranging. She was responsive and helpful in making choices of flavors and quantities. A huge plus to her cupcakes is that all the cupcakes come in a gluten free option which is amazing! You don't get stuck with only a couple choices for those who don't eat gluten. Lastly for catering she will bring all of the cupcakes to your home and ice them there which makes for an extra fresh

As I drove to the amphitheater, my taste buds were in full force. Upon arriving, I was struck by how small the parking lot was and the swarm of cars that were looking for a spot. Folks were hungry! After spending about 45 minutes looking for parking, I was finally ready to check out the vendors. About 30 food establishment booths were set up on the concourse with food ranging from corn dogs to Spanish pork. I bought some tickets and I was ready to taste. I started with the coconut curry shrimp from The Reef, then on to Luli's Cupcakes for a red velvet mini cupcake. Then, I picked up a piece of chocolate cake from The Fudge Lady, a steak and stout pie from Meehan's Irish Pub and Backyard, followed by a sweet tea to wash all the food down from Fusion Tide Tea. I needed to take a break from eating so we went to listen to the bands play for a bit and bask in the sun. After an enjoyable hiatus, I was ready to tackle the tight quarters of the concourse and the crowd to sample a few more things. I grabbed a piece of pizza and I picked up the crab chowder from Crispers and the banana-strawberry delight from Barnacle Bills Seafood House. The small portions for varying numbers of tickets, which were each a dollar, were perfect for tasting some of the best dishes that the restaurants had to offer. After a few hours, I was spent! Good food, good music and good company made for a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon!
