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.

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this café. We opted for the hour-long experience,…read morewhich was priced at approximately $100.00. 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.

It costs $50 for 30 minutes…read more We arrived and waited in the "café" area first, where they have guinea pigs and a rabbit you can pet. Then they take guests into small rooms in groups of about 10 people. In our room, we had three five-month-old capybaras. Our host gave us kale, and the capybaras came right up to eat out of our hands. That's also when you can pet them. The capybaras were named after beans, and Pinto was our favorite. Pinto even rolled over for my boyfriend and clearly loved the belly rubs. Later, he jumped up on the bench behind us and just hung out for a few minutes. While we fed and petted them, the host explained how he acquired them and how to care for them. These capybaras belong to a sanctuary and were rescued. It was a glorious 30 minutes, and my boyfriend, who is from the capital of wild capybaras, got to touch his first one. His home city literally has them all around town.

Sweetwater Coffee understood the assignment…read more I ordered the banana bread latte and let me just say... if banana bread and coffee had a personality, this would be it. 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.

I loved the vibe of this coffee shop and how close it was to all of the must see spots in downtown…read moreSt. Augustine. On one side it's a coffee shop and on the other a wine shop! 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.

I would highly recommend the Lavender latte and the Banana chai latte. For entrees the Joburg Jam was amazing and the avocado sampler plate was tasty, too. Our girls loved their chocolate, strawberry filled croissant of course! The staff was incredibly friendly and we were even able to chat with the owner. Everyone's genuine kindness put this dining experience over the top. We would recommend to anyone visiting St Augustine.

We visited The Modern Rose for a morning date and we both loved it!…read more I started with the Rejuvenate Boba, which is a bursting dragonfruit with passionfruit tangerine tea and lemon. My wife had the Signature flight - Lavender Latte, Rose-iatto, Cinnamon Mocha and Caramel Macchiato. All great choices! For food, I went with the Mick Griddle Tower - 3 slices of brioche French toast, stacked with two eggs & 3 slices of bacon, all smothered with melted mozzarella, powdered sugar & maple syrup. And it was DELICIOUS. The restaurant was a bit busy while we were there, but it didn't take away from our experience. The staff were all amazing and we'd love to go back when we visit St. Augustine!

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.

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!

We were in the neighborhood for business and was hoping to try a new place and a quick breakfast…read more Parking in the area is a challenge, just be prepared to walk. Coffee and drinks were good. However, it took 27 minutes to be served two microwaved breakfast sandwiches. With all the local bagels shops in the area, the cornerstone cafe gets flat bagels that are baked in Jacksonville. The cafe does need some work. I think this place is convenient for the local college students. It will definitely be sometime before we try this place again.

Otherwise the street is pretty quiet but with limited parking. The inside is welcoming and has bathrooms for patrons. Unfortunately NO GF but also no up charge for non-dairy milk. Nice atmosphere for studying or chatting but I don't personally care for their coffee.

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.
