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.

It was smooth, cozy, and somehow tasted like a hug but also woke me up like I had responsibilities. This was much needed after we landed from cold Chicago, like "hey girl"! Perfect balance of flavor and caffeine, not overly sweet, and actually tasted like real coffee (which is rare these days). If you're in St. Augustine, do yourself a favor and stop here, you'll leave caffeinated, happy, and maybe a little motivated as well!

I'm a St. Augustine local of 4 years and I found this charming little shop on one of my downtown…read morestrolls a few years back. Not only did I find delicious coffee and beautiful local art - which is what you'd expect and hope to find given the name - but fresh, homemade breakfast/lunch options and some of the most genuine, sweet people who remember their regulars and truly appreciate customer loyalty, which is far too rare in the service industry these days. In 3 years, I've had only great food and coffee here, but it's the warm, thoughtful, human element that has kept me coming back and will keep me coming for years to come. Thank you, Mike and the Sweetwater crew! *A note for my fellow wheeled peops: It's small, depending on the type of chair you have, and may require deft maneuvering but there is an accessible entrance in the back between Chase bank and the Villa Zorayda museum. If you need help getting in, call. They will all help, without hesitation. Don't miss out on an amazing experience.

I was looking for a cup of coffee and found this little shop…read more I paid $6.50 for a 12 oz latte. It was okay but It wasn't very hot It was almost just warm. And the coffee was not filled to the top. I almost went back in and said can you fill this up please? But my friends were waiting for me. Friendly service. Cute shop. Overpriced for what you get.

The staff was very kind and made my drink very quickly. I ordered the beach bum, iced with almond milk. It was a salty coconut flavor and it was something I've never tried before in an iced latte. It was delicious. I was a little disappointed that almond milk was 1.50 extra and my drink ended up being $8.75 before tip.

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.

It's the kind of place that feels cozy but also open and airy at the same time. The coffee was delicious and well made. I originally wanted to try their heated cheddar bagel, but unfortunately their oven was broken that day. Even so, I decided to try it untoasted and it still tasted great! The flavor was really good and it paired nicely with the coffee. Overall, it's a lovely spot to sit and enjoy a drink, especially with all that natural light coming through the windows. I'd definitely come back again--hopefully next time when the oven is working so I can try that cheddar bagel toasted!
