This was a great place to go to for breakfast. I loved how cute it was inside plus it is a family owned restaurant. They roast their own beans and their coffee smells amazing!! I had the Cuban Egg sandwich and that was delicious! I wanted to try something new and different and I'm glad I did. Went around 11 and was seated quite quickly. Staff were wonderful! Would most definitely come here again! read more

Cute brunch spot in the heart of downtown dunedin. My dirty chai was a delicious treat on a chilly Florida morning. I split a quesadilla with my sister and it was enough food for both of us. I liked that they had a closed in balcony with heat so we could sit outside on a colder day. Will be back again to sit in their outdoor courtyard soon. read more

Very unpleasant experience. No host stand so we had to wander around looking for a waitress to get seated. Then the food took forever. Maybe 30 mins+ for food to come out, with nobody checking on us. We had to specifically ask for coffee refills. We asked for a waffle to be served after our entrees so we had something sweet, and the waitress brought it out 15 mins before the rest of the food. Very strange. To top it all off, the food wasn't even very good. My omelette was fine but the potatoes were all undercooked and very oily. You get one slice of toast, but it is one of those brands that cuts it super thin to save calories so your one slice is more close to a half slice. The breakfast bowl also came with 1 egg. Who eats 1 egg for breakfast? read more

I lucked up on this gem by searching for breakfast near me. This is a great little café and gift shop and I am glad this lace popped up on my map! The food is delicious and I would recommend sitting outdoors as the inside has roughly enough seating for 15 people. Their coffee menu is delightful and offers everything from espresso to chai lattes. And yes, they have guest WiFi so bring your laptop and get some work done! I had the bacon egg and cheese croissant and my husband had the breakfast quesadilla. The portions were big enough but not oversized as to require leftovers. They have more traditional offerings as well if you are an American breakfast fan but also offer simple bagels and English muffins for light eaters. Service is very friendly and is enough to coax you right back another visit. If you are near, stop in for a quick bite or a coffee/tea break and refresh yourself. Don't get me wrong, you can certainly have enough food here to stuff yourself silly, but since everything is ale-carte you have the option of getting satisfied without the bloat. read more

My husband and I have been visiting the Clearwater area, for vacation, for years now. The Sandpiper is one of our most favorite breakfast spots! Their outside dining area is too cute, and the food and coffee is always great. This morning when we stopped in, before heading to the airport, we found a table inside. It was a little too chilly outside, and we had our 9 month old with us. Our waiter was a younger guy who was super friendly and eager - he was working hard with a big smile on his face! I ordered a latte, that was delicious, until it got in arm's reach of my baby. He spilled it all over the floor which I felt terribly about. Our waiter came over instantly and happily began to clean up the spill. The owner was working this morning as well, and he joined in cleaning up the spill - both men were so kind. Our waiter then brought over a fresh latte for me, which I hadn't asked for. So sweet! We already loved the Sandpiper - but even more now! We will be back of course! read more

Nice little breakfast/lunch cafe in Dunedin. Love that they roast their coffee in house. I had the cinnamon cappuccino. It was well balance & very tasty. Eriq insisted on us trying the pretzel bites since it was brunch time;) They came with mustard & cheese sauce for dipping and they were very solid. Entree wise I had the eggs Benedict with a citrus Hollandaise. Tasty and the hint of orange flavor was a nice change of pace. It doesn't come with home fries or anything more of an a la cart type menu which is good with me. Next time looking forward to trying their Nutella latte read more

Our server Julia was very rude to us when asking for a kids menu. We went there to enjoy our last meal before going home from vacation. We saw this place offered breakfast and lunch options and was only given a breakfast menu when others who were seated next to us was given a lunch menu. We brought our two dogs with us and they were not even offered a water bowl unlike another patrons who brought there dog and was offered a water bowl. We only only ordered a bagel, waffle, and a breakfast bowl which took a long time to come out of the kitchen and was mediocre to say the least. We vacation in Dunedin often and this was the first time we had ever had this kind of experience. Needless to say we will NEVER be coming back to this restaurant again. read more

Even though the young man had given us the to-go option. Nonetheless, the restaurant was cute and if we had time we could have enjoyed dining in.

I've been coming here for years, mainly because of the solid food, great coffee, friendly owners and cute indoor and outdoor seating. They have a good sized outdoor area out back, which is great for Covid, because it's never too crowded and everyone is spaced out nicely! My go-to is their breakfast Cuban, which is on a yummy croissant. It comes without a side, so if you're hungry I would maybe order a side or pastry. Their sandwiches are also very good and Iced coffee is solid! Prices are reasonable. read more

Nestled in the heart of Dunedin, Florida, Sandpiper Breakfast Restaurant exudes charm from the moment you step through its doors. My recent visit to this culinary gem left an indelible mark on my taste buds and heart alike. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and an ambiance that whispered tales of cozy mornings and culinary delights. The decor, reminiscent of a coastal cottage, transported us to a serene haven, far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. As we perused the menu, each item beckoned with promises of culinary bliss. Opting for the coconut coffee, I was greeted with a symphony of flavors that danced across my palate with each sip. The delicate balance of coconut and coffee was a revelation, offering a delightful twist to the traditional morning brew. For our main courses, I indulged in the house skillet while my wife opted for the avocado tartine. The house skillet was a masterpiece of flavors and textures, with each bite offering a symphony of savory delights. The perfectly cooked eggs, nestled atop a bed of seasoned potatoes and savory meats, created a harmonious melody of taste sensations that left me craving for more. My wife's Avocado Tartine was a work of art, both visually and gastronomically. The creamy avocado, spread lavishly over toasted artisan bread, was elevated to new heights with a medley of fresh herbs and tangy citrus notes. Each bite was a revelation, a testament to the chef's skill and dedication to culinary excellence. Throughout our meal, the service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring that our every need was met with a smile. The attention to detail and genuine passion for hospitality were evident in every interaction, elevating our dining experience to new heights. In conclusion, Sandpiper Breakfast Quaint Restaurant is a culinary oasis that deserves to be celebrated. From its charming ambiance to its delectable offerings, every aspect of our experience was nothing short of exceptional. Whether you're a local seeking a morning retreat or a traveler in search of culinary delights, a visit to Sandpiper Breakfast Restaurant is an absolute must. read more

This unfortunately is WAY over due...but still needs to be shared. My son and fiancé decided to get married the Tuesday before Thanksgiving...after a quick ceremony at the court house the 10 of had made arrangements to celebrate at the Sandpiper. COULD NOT HAVE MADE A BETTER DECISION. The staff was on point....I was able to get with Karen before hand to finalize details about the lunch...She knew exactly what to do and had her staff more than ready for us. We walked into the back...and it was gorgeous...EXACTLY what the new couple wanted. Plenty of room, plenty of GREAT food, and sincerely enjoyed every minute of being there. We could not have asked for, picked out and or planned a better celebration!!!! PERFECT in every way! Thank you Karen and David....We will most assuredly be back....I highly recommend hosting any event that you might have here at the Sandpiper Café and Gifts. You will not be disappointed. read more

We had an extremely disappointing experience at Wild Iris. Despite multiple open tables, we were subjected to unnecessary wait times and completely ignored by the staff. We weren't greeted or acknowledged for 25 minutes, which is unacceptable. After waiting and watching others receive service, we finally decided to walk out. Thankfully, we found a much better option just 168 feet around the corner at Sandpiper. The service there was friendly, the atmosphere far more inviting, and the food just as good, if not better. If you're looking for a pleasant dining experience, skip Wild Iris and head to Sandpiper instead. You'll be glad you did. read more

Great Environment! Excellent Food! Wonderful Service! Imagine driving down the road and finding a Gem! We are enjoying a relaxing breakfast on the patio. The breeze is blowing just enough to keep you cool. The smell of the breakfast cooking tantalizing your taste buds, left no disappointment from the first bite to the last! read more

Good coffee. The food is marginal at best. Overpriced for what you get. Only time I've ordered a side of bacon and served 2 pieces. HORRIBLE French toast. Clear Sky still has the BEST breakfast in Dunedin. read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but we were warmly greeted, coffee was great and the food was delicious! The restaurant itself is quite small with a small parking lot to match. Mid-week in September, we had no trouble grabbing a booth for the 4 of us. Coffee was made fresh and our meals took very little time to arrive. Hubs had the Tin Can Wild with pancakes which were huge and fluffy. I opted for the veggie omelet with fruit while our little one had a bagel with cream cheese. Friendly folks and a home cooked meal. I'd happily stop back in if we're in Clearwater again!

The place is tiny but cute and packed full of character. You have booths lining the sides with a few tables in the middle and some counter seating. The walls are lined with kitschy type memorabilia and I enjoyed looking around. Great menu options and specials are available - I had a ham & cheese omelette and my boyfriend had the steak skillet. Both were outstanding! They definitely didn't skimp on the fillings for either. I'd say it's the best omelette I've had in my memory and my boyfriend loved the skillet. At one point he asked our waitress if they had tortillas and she brought a few out twice as he made steak breakfast tacos. All in all, we loved the place. The food was awesome and the service was outstanding - truly happy & kind people who seemed to enjoy their jobs & working together. We'll definitely be back!

Unfortunately, they didn't have a spot to lock up our bikes so we walked over to the Starbucks nextdoor to lock them. We went mid-week early in the morning and had no issues getting a table. The service was wonderful and our host was very kind and attentive! I wish I caught her name! A= Appearance - This place serves food like a mom and pop diner, but without the diner feel/vibe. The restaurant has a modern clean design. T= Taste - Lately I have been on a hot cocoa kick, so considering it was vacation and cold out I got one! And I'm glad I did! I liked how they did a special touch of chocolate drizzle on the whipped cream. I was having a crisis on what to order because everything sounded so good but luckily a customer next to me heard and recommended the croissant breakfast sandwich. I normally wouldn't have ordered that, but hey I was open! It paid off, it was a buttery croissant with an over medium egg (it said over hard... but in fact I was glad it was over medium because I like my yolk runny). My fiancé got the southern skillet and also enjoyed his meal. He said it was lots of food and had leftovers! Funny enough we were able to travel back with our leftovers because they gave us a bag, very nice of them!

It was such a nice day, sunny but not too hot, we decided to sit at the Patio. Menus were brought along with waters and one coffee. We usually try to order different dishes and share meals to taste multiple items. That is unless my wife has something really great, then has to be pressured to share!! We decided on the Huevos Rancheros (me), Spicy Chorizo Skillet and BLT Avocado Omelette. Our food came in good time, allowing us a bit to talk and enjoy the sunshine, without the usual Florida thunderstorms. We dug in and shared. My Huevos Rancheros was great, with a little heat, although I would have preferred more heat. The Spicy Chorizo Skillet was also great, just not much heat, better for the "girls." The BLT Avocado Omelette was really good, loaded with flavor. All were good but of course mine was the best! Great service, wonderful atmosphere and excellent food. If you prefer a brunch instead of lunch, you should check it out.

I ordered the Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast with scrambled eggs and a side of grits. I'm glad we walked there because it was a lot of food. The lox were fresh and there was an ample amount of avocado spread on multi-grain bread. Plus I loved the fact that it had grilled onions, tomatoes and capers served on it. It was served with a bowl of mixed fruit topped with granola. YUM! The side of grits came with my choice of cheese and I added Swiss cheese. Our server was very prompt and friendly and we were amazed how fast the food came out. I loved the interior decor with lots of airbrushed artwork on the walls.

I ordered two breakfasts and added two plain crêpes, (equivalent to a ladle full of batter). The cost of two plain crêpes was $22 dollars. The waitress told me afterwards you could have ordered a spectacular breakfast, and substituted the pancake for a crepe , you don't have coffee and it would've cost you $13 per breakfast, so the total for two breakfasts would have cost $26 instead of $54. Yes $54 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When we walked in, we were quickly greeted. Place is still bright, clean and cheery. Interesting soundscapes type music piped in also. We were told we could sit anyplace as we entered. We did and sat at a booth with a very wobbly table. A moment or two later when Ginger took our order, she replied that "we were tryin' to fix that table yesterday but we didn't have a shim." M next time a word about not having us sit there would be a welcome gesture on their part rather than letting us move all our stuff to the next table. Anyway...coffee was kinda weak too. I usually don't bother with diner coffee as it's usually hit or miss. This stuff was the latter by far. Meanwhile we got the former with our food! Queen Bee chose a daily special: one egg, two pieces of French toast and two strips of bacon. I chose the country fried steak breakfast. Queen Bee's choice made her quite the happy camper. French toast she found quite delicious; well cooked rather than goopy or runny with a nice crisp to it. The egg was perfect over medium as asked. She even told Ginger what an over medium egg constitutes. Ginger replied "I gotcha honey" with a southern laugh. My breakfast meantime was quite lovely for the most part. Country fried steak was a standard Sysco truck frozen block of breaded, minced meat. It was properly cooked (as opposed to incinerated) and not greasy. The standout for this was/is the "country gravy." Country gravy oftentimes suffers from one of two problems... 1. Over salty from too much sausage and sausage grease. 2. Floury aftertaste because the cook can't make a proper béchamel. This stuff had neither problem and was one of the better country gravies I've had in recent memory if not ever. Meanwhile eggs were scrambled properly...not too loose, not too tight (more toward the latter than the former). The home fries were quite bland (no salt, no pepper or even a hint of paprika). I wonder if too many of the old folks living round here complained about 'em. Anyway, I added a shake of salt (gasp!) and some pepper. I chose rye toast as I usually do. When Ginger dropped off our chow I even asked if it was rye instead of whole wheat. She said yes with a smile, adding the only way she can tell 'em apart is by "looking for the seeds. Ya gotta be smarter than what ya work with." Finally, Ginger herself is a real hoot. She truly reminds me of a southern version of the NYC diner waitresses I remember from my younger years and decades in the Big Apple. Sassy, funny, and quite efficient, competent and knowledgeable. After we walked in, we weren't so sure about whether we'd return here ever again. However given the balance of today's experience, I'd say that when we find ourselves in the area and in need of a feed...Pete seems to have done well with this joint and I'd say his morning crew knows their stuff!

Which would have been perfect because the English muffin showed up 5 minutes after the eggs and the corn beef hash arrived 5 minutes after that. It was all cooked ok, but under seasoned and the timing was weird. My wife felt like there was too much tuna and found it difficult to eat. Fries no seasoning.
