It really is a cool place. It's large and spacious. Our server was good. The food was ok. The deviled eggs were kind of tasteless though. Brussels were good. My braised beef grilled cheese was decent. Service was slow. Overall it was just ok. I would go there again if it was where everyone wanted to go, but it wouldn't be my first suggestion. read more

Fun place. Very dark. Great vibe and loved the decor. Service was excellent! I had the steak salad and it was delicious! I was eyeing the giant German pretzel as they passed by me! They looked amazing! (Next time!) read more

Food and service is great it's a great restaurant but the water is nasty not filtered st Augustine water

We went there in November and it was super busy! We had to wait a while to get a table but you can wait at the bar, which is a good size. We were seated upstairs and our server checked on us frequently, even with a busy night. We ordered the deviled eggs, county line boiled peanuts, pan-seared salmon and the braised shortrib. Everything came out cooked well, it was fresh and flavorful. Definitely a good spot in St. Augustine. read more

Was recently here this past weekend and I must say our waitress Oli or Olive ( I am sorry if I've botched your name in advance) was so amazing, so welcoming, so attentive. She made sure to make suggestions which of course we went with. We had the grilled Crispy Brussel sprouts, the fried chicken sandwich, and the bootlegger burger which were all amazing. If you were visiting or if you are a local make sure to go see and visit Oli or Olive (sorry again) for botching your name. But thank you for making our experience so much fun and pleasant. Can't wait to come back and ask for you if you're available. read more

We had an hour and a half wait but it was worth it. Our server was Taylor and he was so good. Very attentive and helpful. Music was playing and if there was anything bad to say it may be just that it was so loud. But we really enjoyed the music. We got the Short Rib Grilled Cheese and The signature PK burger. Both were outstanding even though they were out of the sofrito for the grilled cheese. We also got deviled eggs for appetizers. They were good. read more

Over the years visiting St. Augustine, Prohibition Kitchen has always been a go to spot for food or drinks. We split chicken wings and fries, which was more than enough for 2 people. The wings were crispy and hot, just how I like them! During our first visit of the weekend, we were too full to try one of their milkshakes, and came back the next day for just the milkshake. Got the cookies and cream milkshake with alcohol in it. Presentation was beautiful and it tasted just as good. The first sip you could definitely taste the alcohol, but after a couple it just tasted like a milkshake. read more

I stopped here this evening for dinner and had a great experience. I had to wait about 30 minutes to be seated, but they have a buzzer/pager waiting system, so I was able to pass time by popping into some gift shops on St. George Street while I waited. There was also some live music going on, though they were wrapping up by the time I was seated. My server, Olivia, was very attentive and very friendly. I ordered the whiskey barbecue burger and it was great. I asked for the burger to be medium and it was cooked perfectly. This was a really fun spot with great food and service. I would definitely return! read more

The place was so much bigger than I could have ever thought! Ambiance was really cozy inside!! Service was also great and someone was even going around to take pictures and you can choose to take a better one for $20! We enjoyed our appetizers -- it was pretty tasty and drinks were good too! Wish we could spend more time especially during their events! read more

Oh my god! This is the second time I have had this burger and the poutine fries! It is totally the best, and I am already craving it again. It is made to perfection, and the onion Jam is to die for on. I don't know what they put on those fries, but I could eat them for a year straight and never get sick of them! I had done some research, and her they had the best expresso martini and hands down...... I agree. 3 in! Seriously, I could not stop! I wish I could remember our waitresses' name, but she was at the bar, and it was a second time she had waited on me, and she was so sweet, attentive , fast, and engaging. It made the total experience wonderful! Can't wait to go back this weekend!!! read more

Lots of good reviews and my husband wanted a burger so we gave it a try. Server, Brady, was very nice and helpful. I had the black and blue salad and my husband had the bbq bacon cheeseburger. 3 stars because I asked for medium cooking on my skirt steak and it was quite rubbery. My husband ordered his burger medium well being told that there would be very little pink - there was much pink! Definitely not a medium well cook. They replaced my steak with some grilled chicken that was decent. Nice atmosphere but not impressed with the food. read more

Prohibition Kitchen is a really cool restaurant in the heart of historic St. Augustine. I love the speak easy vibes; it feels like you're stepping into a different time period. The menu even looks like an old timey newspaper. We ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with the sirloin patty upgrade ($2) and their short rib grilled cheese. The burger patty had delicious flavor and was cooked to perfection. There wasn't a strong mushroom or Swiss cheese flavor, but it was a solid "regular" burger. I loved the short rib grilled cheese which was absolutely packed with meat. I really enjoyed adding their hot sauce for extra flavor. We also upgraded from fries to get a small side of beer cheese soup which had a pretty unique flavor. read more

Amazing ambience. They really did a great job. Live music, not too loud. Space to dance. Great bar, attentive service and great mixed drink. Bathroom was squeaky clean. Service was A+. Deviled eggs appetizer: "meh": C Braised short-rib: A++ $30 Fish and chips: D- (fries, fish and hush puppies were overcooked and tasted like they were fried in the same oil). Tartar sauce tasted off and side of slaw was bland. $30 Would definitely go back, in spite of one dud meal. read more

We went here on a double date during the Night of Lights. We had to wait an hour and a half for a table due to it being busy. I'm not sure if they have reservations available. I didn't see any on their website. Anyways they have a live band playing when you first walk in that gives it a nice vibe. The menu is a newspaper with news on one side and the food items on the other. My husband ordered the chili to start and I must say...that was the best chili I have ever had. We should have got a bowl instead of a cup lol. 100000/10 I had the BBQ Whiskey Burger & Green Beans which was amazing. Basically it's a BBQ burger with fried onion rings. My fav 10/10 They also serve boozy milkshakes I want to try next time. read more

Came here for my friends birthday. I had never been but it was one of his favorites it was very cool. The inside was larger than i anticipated and two stories tall. The food was excellent and the staff was very nice and quick. I got the signature burger because it had something called dragon cheese on it which sounded cool. The bacon jam though was the beat part of the burger. We also got the pretzel for our appetizer it was good but not anything i would have to get next time. read more

Horrible service, not friendly. The bartender could not even get 2 beers correct on tap. On another note, he also forgot the shots we ordered, and when asked nicely came back with an attitude...... mind you they were on our tab. It was busy due to football season, however, the bar was not 3 deep, they had more than enough staff, they just cannot hang with a fully seated bar. read more

Great food and friendly people. The atmosphere was cozy and fun. Overall loved the food and drinks. We will be back !

We came during the crazy holiday time. We knew there would be a wait. We arrived around 1pm and were told the waitlist was closed although the restaurant was half empty. We managed to get a standing spot at the bar and enjoyed our time for about 2 hours. The selection of spirits and beer is incredible. We all ordered a classic old fashioned to start. The bar was pumpin and our cocktails came out in a timely manner and were perfectly balanced. Our next round were some of the specialty cocktails and these did not disappoint. Highly recommend the herd it through the grapevine which was the perfect holiday bourbon cocktail and the foam alone was easy drinking and festive as well. We were hungry and needed a nibble. We ordered fries. To our surprise there was a variety of fry options but we went with the classic which were PERFECT and came out super fast. Highly recommend for a shareable bite. On our way out we were able to put our name down and were told an hour. We made it to our next destination down the road and instantly got the text that our table was ready so we quickly jet back. Our dining experience was great. Lovely attentive service, good food. Excited to come back! Only wish is it was easier to get a table. read more

Prohibition Kitchen - Giant pretzel. Comes with spicy mustard and a great dipping sauce. - Bars Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

I went here for dinner while in town with my husband and friends and overall the atmosphere was lively and turns into a party vibe at night. For starters we had Brussel sprouts and deviled eggs which apparently they switch on occasions. For this one, it was smoked salmon with bread crumbles and pickled onion which was different but in a good way. All the flavors balanced well. The Brussel sprouts were just okay, I wish they were crispy. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with fries which was just okay. However, the true star of the show was my husband's lobster roll! I took a bite and immediately wished that I got that instead. It was full of lobster, and the roll was golden and buttery. Our server was great and very attentive. read more

I don't know what other restaurants are in St. Augustine but if you choose one this restaurant should definitely be in your top 2! My family and I had dinner here and everything we ate was delicioussss! Our server was so patient with us because we had sooo many questions about the menu so shoutout to her. The inside is also just a really cool vibe and decorated so nicely. For appetizers we got the German pretzel, fried pickles, bbq wings, and poutine. The pretzel is AMAZING especially with the beer cheese - I ended up dipping my fries in the leftover cheese because of how good it was. I think the only complaint my dad has was that the poutine could've used more cheese curds, but everything else was perfecttt. For entrees we got the mushroom Swiss burger (could've used more mushrooms), my mom got the grouper which she loved, and my brother and I built our burgers. My dad also loved his root beer float and my cookies and cream milkshake was the bestttt guilty pleasure shake ever. Absolutely lovedddd this restaurant! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is perfection.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We expected the food to be better, but unfortunately it was just ok. My fried chicken sandwich was the star of our lunch, but it was only a B. My husband's burger, ordered a medium rare, was well done. We didn't see a server for a while after we received our food, so he just ate it. The $4 up charge for sweet potato tots is so not worth a dime. They were inedible, but our server didn't ask how ANYTHING was so there wasn't any opportunity to change, send back etc. My fries were piping hot and tasted good for about five minutes until they cooled. After that, they were very mealy...you know how those taste. So very disappointed after hearing good things about this place. We won't be back here. Plenty of other places to eat in SA. Restaurants are crying the blues about costs, but don't seem to care much about quality any longer. I don't know about you, but until these establishments can show me they care about customers and quality, I'm going to be cautious about spending my money on a lunch costing $70. You? read more

Be prepared for a wait! Initially they said about 30 mins just to get a buzzer but luckily someone left as I was still standing there and I got one. The bartenders are great and you can have really good drinks and even eat at the bar if you choose to. We waited on our table at the bar and the waitress was very nice. The bar is so well decorated and the vibe is just fun, they had a live band singing the rock version of Christmas carols It's the town's busiest time of the year so I totally understood the wait. Would def revisit! read more

We came here for the first time yesterday, hoping to have a good service and food overall since the reviews were ok. Well, it wasn't. When you enter the place the bad smell is super strong, the host didn't acknowledge us, grab the menu and sat us down without saying even Hi, waiting in the server was eternal. We order a burger and a lobster roll. Burger was ok, the lobster roll definitely doesn't cost $48 at ALL. Overall experience 2 out of 10. read more

The ambiance of the restaurant is amazing. It has such a vibe with the name of the place. The deco is as if we're back in the prohibition days. We only sat at the bar so we snacked on their fries, but it was delicious regardless. The bartender was amazing, it was busy but was able to tend to our drinks! read more

Best meal we have had in St Augustine this trip! The service by Raina was very attentive and was amazing! Short rib grilled cheese is to die for, and that flounder sandwich is enough to feed a small army AND IT'S DELICIOUS! We tried the charcuterie board and pretzel for appetizers and they are a must try too!! The live music is fantastic and the upper deck seating is phenomenal. This place rocks! read more

The decor of the restaurant was really cool and the band playing was fun! The space to wait for a table was very limited so you could not stand and listen to the band while waiting for a table. When we checked in the wait was 90 minutes and it did take about 90 minutes but there were a lot of open tables. With a very busy time of the year I feel like they should have been able to seat all the tables. With portion sizes we often order an appetizer and an entree, however they charged a $5 share fee so we eliminated the appetizer and ordered a $4 cup of chili. They would have made more money if they did not have a plate share fee. I ordered the fish and chips. The portion was large and we could not finish it. The flavor of the food was somewhat bland. I added some salt and pepper to the fries and slaw, which I rarely do. The house made tartar sauce was on point and added the flavor the fish needed. The cup of chili was very tasty, but was literally a cup, maybe even less. I like to try new places so that makes it worth the wait but I would not return unless there was a band of interest and I could be seated where I could view them. read more

This place is perpetually packed, which is both good and bad. The food and drinks were very good but the service was slow. The ambiance is gorgeous and that of a speakeasy. I would return if I knew that I would be guaranteed a seat at the bar. Perhaps they need another location :D read more

What an experience to say the least! Food: 10/10 The food was absolutely delicious! We. Ate. Every. Single. Bite. We ordered the Pretzel as an appetizer and then French dip and a burger for the main meals and wow. So much flavor. So delicious. The beer nacho cheese was amazing! Service: 10/10 The hostesses were super friendly & hilarious! They gave us our wait time and we sat down in the waiting area. After about a 30 minute wait, we were walked over to a huge old school looking booth to eat our dinner at. The young gentleman who took care of us was so kind! Friendly, prompt! Kept our drinks full! Offered a lot of recommendations! We love that kind of service! Walking into a new place with so many different options is sometimes hard to find a good item!! Our waiter was efficient & greatly appreciated! Ambiance: 10/10 Complete prohibition kitchen era type vibes just exactly how it sounds. When we walked in, it felt like we took a set to the past. All the employees were dressed in really cool outfits! The place was HUGE! Lots and lots of seating! Super long wait time for larger parties from what I overheard! Completely worth the wait though. Highly recommend coming to check this place out if you're in town! read more

Went for The Squirrel Nut Zippers concert- which was a fabulous venue for that kind of band. While we waited to get in we looked at the menu posted outside and got excited for their vegan options. Come to find out they were serving a limited menu that only had like 3 items - so that was disappointing to find out after waiting for an hour to get in. Bartender was great and bathrooms were decent for a bar. read more

The atmosphere in this place was great, although this visit was a bit disappointing. Everyone in our group got their appetizers and food, finished eating it and then about 10 minutes after everyone finished, I got my baked potato. The gentleman bartender was great, awesome personality, the female behind the bar was very standoffish. Overall in the past, we have had great experiences here. This visit didn't cut it. Not sure if this will be on our list next time. The milkshake looked amazing! read more

Great food and great drinks! This location is always a good time but it gets busy!! If you are bringing your family in for a bite to eat, be prepared to wait. Sunday's in the fall are for football and being one of the fee bats that has multiple tvs for the games, the bar area is packed early and it gets loud. We ordered the chicken wings (crispy) with one order having the honey mustard sauce and the other having the whiskey bbq. The whiskey bbq is a little sweet so next time we may ask them to mix the bbq with the honey mustard or the regular hot sauce. They have a large selection of beer! My husband got the Kentucky bourbon ale and I opted for a cider as they had the Blake's peach party in the can and they also had mcKenzie's black cherry in the bottle. No cider on tap. Very large bourbon selection as well. We tried the stagg junior. read more
