Crackings was a great breakfast stop in Destin!…read more There was a bit of a wait, but since it was just the two of us, we grabbed seats at the bar, which is first come, first served. It ended up being the perfect spot. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and I absolutely loved the coffee mugs--they were so cute that I would've bought one if they had been for sale! We kept breakfast simple with eggs, bacon, potatoes, and grits. We had actually meant to order the lobster grits, but somehow ended up with the regular grits instead. No complaints, though--they were really good, and as a Southern girl, I know not everyone gets grits right. The service was friendly, the food was delicious, and we'd definitely come back the next time we're in Destin.

I ended up here after a late dessert craving. I came to YELP found an open desert spot just five…read moreminutes from my hotel, and learned that they have key lime pie on the menu. Walked in and two minutes later I was walking back out with a delicious slice of key lime pie. The service was excellent and quick. While waiting I noticed diners inside enjoying the donut shop ambiance, while eating delicious dessert. Yum! I was fork ready when I returned to my room and forget to capture footage of the pretty pie. It was so delicious.

Stopped by yesterday to grab some donuts and a couple slices of pie/cake. We arrived later in the…read moreday after dinner, so pickings on the pastries was slim, but they still had a decent amount of donuts to choose from. Decided on a 6 pack with glazed, chocolate coconut x 2, sprinkles, chocolate glazed x 2. They were placed in a bag rather than box (I should have said something!) so of course the chocolate ended up on the bag and the other donuts. Luckily the donuts were good, though! Also ordered a slice of key lime pie (a must!) and a slice of a chocolate/vanilla cake (moist and perfect if you can't decided if you want a slice of chocolate or vanilla cake!). In addition to pastries, they also ordered food (mainly looked like breakfast and brunch), which looked delicious. If we had more time in Destin, would definitely stop by again for a meal.

They had a great selection of different breakfast items. My kids went with pancake selections and my husband and I chose omelettes. Everything tasted really fresh and I even was able to get a free bag from showing that I posted pictures of my food on social media. I bought my husband a mug to take home. He really liked it, but it's already cracked, which is unfortunate. We will definitely come back here the next time we're in the area.

On the main road here in Destin…read more The music sounds clubby inside. Considered the crab croissant, but the pics on here didn't look so good and the croissant didn't look golden brown or flaky, like I tend to favor. We ordered the spicy carb scramble, cup of coconut grits, iced coffee, less whipped cream, jerk chicken basket, island burger and Blue Mahoe beer. $51.71 for everything except the island burger and the Blue Mahoe beer. The iced coffee comes topped with whipped cream, it's mixed with chocolate. It's obviously very chocolatey as a result of the added chocolate. The Blue Mahoe beer is made with mango, it's different for sure. The base of the beer tastes like a Blue Moon, maybe. Shows mango cart on the cocktail menu, no idea what a mango cart means though. Service was good, although our waitress seemed like she might be new since she didn't know the specifics of the menu items. Not sure why I was thinking the jerk chicken would not be on the bone, so that made it a bit messier than planned. The island burger is spicy, my FIL enjoyed it. The spicy crab scramble was good. Could have better jam to go with the toast, the grape jelly didn't look anything like a jelly and was quite runny for my toast at least. The mixed berry was a bit thicker for spreading. The coconut grit was quite creamy, just a very subtle coconut flavor. The jerk chicken sauce is super flavorful and quite good. The cabbage slaw on the side was bland and seemed like an afterthought to me. The fries were partly over fried and as if the oil had saturated into a few of the fries to make them look translucent even. Still overall a nice lunch.

The sauce with the chicken and the and coconut waffles is absolutely devine. The coconut grits and…read morepork belly is as tasty. I enjoyed the Caribbean inspired food was a wonderful twist for breakfast. We really enjoyed the experience.

When I'd gotten back to the hotel I was irritated, because they didn't provide me any syrup. Needless to say, I didn't need the syrup, there were some preserves/ jelly included and it was amazing. They were perfectly cooked and they tasted amazing. The omelets were huge and they have these breakfast fries that were seasoned to perfection. All in all, I see why they had a long wait and line out the door. Next time we come, I'll definitely come early enough to eat inside.

Took the day off on Friday, so my friend and I decided to grab a late lunch at Cafe Destin. From…read morethe moment we walked in, we were greeted right away and handed menus. We were told to sit anywhere we wanted and, once we knew what we wanted, just head up to the counter to place our order. We both decided on the breakfast burrito--my friend got theirs with bacon, while I went with ham. The burritos came out on paper plates with plastic utensils, keeping things very casual and laid-back. The burritos were cooked perfectly and came out fresh, rather than sitting around. The potatoes that came with them were great as well and paired nicely with the burrito. Overall, Cafe Destin is a great casual spot for breakfast or lunch. The food was fresh, the service was friendly, and everything came out just right. I'd definitely recommend giving Cafe Destin a try!

Popular restaurant so my experience may not be typical…read more Service was good but not great. When we asked for refills, a server said, "I'll go find your server." Overall, our guy did a very good job. Appetizers. The best part of the meal. The mushrooms were very good and the hush puppies were as good as I've ever had. The shrimp were so so. The sides were average at best. It was somewhere between McDonald's and Applebees. My ribeye was ordered medium but arrived shoe leather. I left half of it. The grouper was good but not great. Great views, a little cramped, people at the bar with no shirt and no shoes.

While staying in Destin, we wanted to try a breakfast place we haven't tried when we visited a year…read moreago. This place came up and we decided to go here one morning. It was confusing at first because on GPS it says breakfast table then Red Rooster Cafe when we get there. Hence the old Jeep in the front. We go in and wait to be seated. The inside to me kinda felt like I was in someone's house with all the old furniture, I thought it was cool. We were seated pretty quickly and took sometime to order off the menu. I got a Bacon, Medium eggs and toast plate with a side of fruit while my friend got hash browns with a biscuit. The breakfast was pretty filling and they actually made some pretty good coffee although I loaded mine with creamer. Our server was totally awesome and was cool about me asking for a to go box so I can feed my bread scraps to the seagulls. I think he told us where to go and what beach and they actually fly up to us. That was cool to engage in conversation with him. This would definitely be a great place to return to.

One strawberry sprinkle that is just a pink frosted donut not actually strawberry as they told us and one red velvet with white frosting. Both of those were super dry cake donuts and the red velvet tasted nothing like red velvet tasted like a basic dry cake donut. Sad I really wanted to like them but I was just disappointed.

My family and I went here for ice cream after having lunch at the City Food Hall. They had a good variety of flavors for both ice cream and gelato. My wife and my son got their favorite choice of gelato flavors. I went with Blood Orange and Mango sorbetto flavors. Their gelato and sorbetto are homemade. Their ice cream is provided by Blue Bell. The gelato and sorbetto flavors were good. I liked my choice of Blood Orange. It was refreshing and delicious. The Mango flavor was good as well. We had a good experience here. The service was nice and friendly. The shop was clean and inviting. I would go back here if I am in Destin again. Definitely check them out if you haven't before.
