Heard rave reviews about this location and they were not wrong. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Loved that there were multiple vegan options as well. If we lived closer we would be here all the time! The coffee and tea options were plentiful and some of them were very unique. The Cuban sandwich was a large portion. Avocado toast was tasty and everything we saw come out of the kitchen looked delicious. read more

A guaranteed delicious experience whether getting coffee or food. And the accommodations for specific diets are really easy. I recently enjoyed a salmon burger but on a special gluten free flat bread (I forget what it was called) and it was amazing! I didn't feel like I was missing out on good bread at all. The combination of toppings and a perfectly cooked burger was so appreciated also. My friend and I enjoyed the outdoor seating and our server was very attentive and helpful. I wish it wasn't on such a busy road and had a more secluded feel, but what can ya do. This will be a repeat for me for sure! read more

Want a good healthy meal. Simons is our go to!!! Specialty coffees are very good. I'm a big Oatmeal fan theirs is delicious

We sat up the bar and are server was the owner. Everyone was so sweet, not just her. It was amazing! Come out of your way just to come here. It was amazing! read more

BEST food, service, atmosphere!! A little hidden gem! Fresh fresh fresh food and drinks.

I love this local, neighborhood gem! I have dined at Simon's several times in the past few months and I really enjoy the variety of options available as well as the specials they offer. There is also a plethora of vegan options and the owner/chef, Simon, who hails from a family of seasoned restauranteurs from England, is seemingly very health conscious and runs a local wellness group. They have locally brewed kombucha here, in house made smoothie conditions, and a daily or near daily changing menu of specials. I adore the vegan dishes here--but also love the other vegetarian options I have had. Whenever I go there is a usually a special that piques my intetest and I elect to try they limited time offering. One special I tired, the cottage lentil pie, was delicious and unlike anything I have had before. I also am a fan of their vegetarian breakfast offerings. The salad accompanying the meals are a great size and the soups are delicious. I am particularly found of the lentil vegetable one. Simon's is located in a row of stores right off U.S. 41/Tamiami Trail. I will continue to support this independent, locally owned business. Thanks, Simon!!! read more

The best place for breakfast or lunch with a variety of very good vegan options. The staff is very friendly and their iced tea is amazing!

Really enjoyed my visit. It's a cute little coffee shop and bistro in a strip mall. They have some dog friendly outside tables but I was flying solo. Overheard the staff telling another customer that a local roaster makes their coffee beans for them, so that's cool, but I went with a delicious sencha green tea. Big pot of hot water came with it so I got a good 3 cups out of it. I also ordered their southwestern/'mexican skillet. It's not called that but it's black beans, onions, peppers, and salsa (left off the sour cream) with scrambled eggs and potatoes. I added turkey bacon. This was really delicious. Not too heavy, a ton of flavor, and really enjoyable. And they even had gluten free toast on the side. Service was perfect, WiFi worked well so I could work for a bit, and the meal was delicious. Perfect spot. read more

The breakfast was excellent. Avocado toast included a delicious blend of main elements and spices. Loved the tofu scramble. The service was very pleasant and speedy. The environment seemed homey and inviting. It was lovely that people greeted us. read more

Awesome little place! We just stopped in here to get an iced coffee to go and ended up sitting at the bar and having a warm cinnamon roll and a blueberry scone. So delicious. Had a lovely discussion with the owners too. Being a small business owner myself, I was So happy to support a local business. We almost passed it as it sits in a small shopping center. Their menu looks so good with many homemade treats. This is a must stop!! read more

Something different Simon's is a little different than your usual breakfast/lunch place. When you look over the menu you see they are of course the place for coffee, but also offer vegan and vegetarian fare as well as egg dishes, sandwiches, and more. There are some limitations on how you can have your eggs prepared and they don't seem to offer griddle items, a little different. I had no problem finding something to eat, their Italian Panini. My concern they would not have many meat items was unfounded, they also cater to us carnivores. My panini included a nice stack of Genoa salami. The sandwich looked good and tasted even better. We did learn Simon's is under new ownership, Simon is no longer running the place. I didn't ask when that occurred, and I didn't think to ask if the menu had changed when we spoke to the new owner for a couple of minutes. He seems like a nice guy, joking around with us. The menu looks about as I remember it from years ago. Simon's used to be closed on Sundays, that changed when ownership changed. Good for us, we visited on a Sunday. read more

Well, I had a very different experience today than I normally have at any given coffee shop. Today.. they were training someone on how to be a barista and it was very cool to watch. When you have a very busy coffee shop... it's hard to train someone "in process", but they did a very good job. Today? I was also able to put my two cents in on how to make a matcha latte... 1st - 1/4 teaspoon of matcha powder, matcha whisked Into 1/4 cup of hot water Then 2nd - heat up the oat milk ( not oat milk with vanilla ) with the espresso maker's frother/heater And then 3rd - pour the matcha & hot water mix into the cup that holds the hot oat milk and mix together Anyone else ? Agree or Disagree ? read more

From the moment we walked in the staff greeted us warmly and there was no wait to be seated or order to go as we did. The food was fantastic and filling, I got the English breakfast sandwich and a vanilla latte and they were both fresh and very tasty. I love the fact that they are a plant based restaurant with the goal of progress not perfection, its intimidating to transition to being plant based and this place makes if attainable and fun with plenty of options and delicious food and fresh drinks. read more

This place is really cute and They have so many options for people with all sorts of dietary restrictions. Something for everyone! They have desserts made with dates instead of sugar etc. Our waitress was really friendly and knowledgeable of what they offered which really helped. There's inside outside and bar seating. They also get the bread from the German bakery right next door which is called Mama G,s which I also recommend. Today I had a ginger snap latte and it really tasted just like a ginger snap. I also had the Big Ben skillet with Swiss cheese it was absolutely fabulous! They have a traditional English HP sauce which is very similar to A1 but a lot better in my opinion. I had no idea this place existed until today! What a fabulous find. Great for breakfast or lunch! read more

Wow, what a find! A vegetarian and vegan oasis in Sarasota not too far from Costco . Take out options include prepared foods such as veggie burgers, veggie pie, vegan desserts in addition to the regular menu. Options include non vegan meals too and both include breakfast, lunch, coffee, snacks, oh my! I brought home the traditional veggie burger that was very tasty and fresh. The cottage lentil pie was filling and both good portion size. Pea soup, no meat, yay!, was delicious and bowl portion perfect! Only item that did not meet the same level was their kale tabbouleh which was more of a bland kale salad. Stems were tough and not chopped small enough. The price for a small size was too high.. $4 ++ Can't wait to return and enjoy another meal on their pup friendly patio. read more

I always enjoy my visits to Simons! I'm always welcomed upon entering the establishment and greeted with smiles all around. The food is interesting, creative, and so tasty. I really appreciate the options for vegans and non-vegans. From soups to coffees to egg dishes, and pastries, you can't go wrong with this menu. read more

This was the best little gem and best food I had on my recent trip to Siesta Key. We had a mixed group of vegetarian, non dairy and plant based eaters and Simon's Coffee House delivered. The smells when you enter in are delicious. I ordered a vegan Jackie sandwich with vegan bacon on it. The vegan bacon was a little dry but everything else was delicious. It was very filling and I highly suggest adding potatoes! The raspberry unsweetened tea was really refreshing. Everyone loved all the food at the table. 10/10 experience! read more

My 1st time @ this coffee shop today. My oat milk latte was great, nice ambiance, very friendly service. I got he Greek Omelet w/sourdough toast. I did enjoy it but feel it was on the basic side. Maybe if they chopped up the olives vs putting them whole in the omelet that would've helped. Would definitely go again though. read more

Nice place. Great service. Food is very good. Why just 4 stars? I just wasn't wowed. Coffee was weak, I understand that's a personal preference but I need a good cup of coffee first thing in the morning. This did not deliver. English breakfast was fresh and nicely presented but lacked flavor. Not sure what was up with all that. My husband had similar experience. Would I go back? Yes. I'm willing to try something else. read more

This use to be our favorite lunch spot but not anymore. Not only have they changed the menu but ingredients in your salad have been greatly reduced as well as the amount of chicken you get. Why mess with a sure thing? Also, the menu is very limited vs what it use to be. read more

Delicious, nutritious and creative food for the Vegan appetite and meat eaters too. We went for dinner with friends and had a sampling of dishes. We tried the cerviche mushrooms, the bbq asparagus, vegan cheese plate plus a dessert flight of carrot cake, mousse, and chocolate cake. We sat outside and enjoyed a one man band who played Cuban music and even took my request. He has a following and people were dancing in the streets! Great fun and food. We even got to meet Simon himself who is passionate about his food! read more

One of our new to us favorite places in Sarasota! Stopped in today for lunch and loved seeing blankets on each chair of their outdoor seating on this chilly day. Service was friendly and personable with great recommendations. Lots of good choices for vegans and meat-eaters alike, those who eat anything, and those with dietary requirements and preferences. Bollywood with Parsnip Coconut soup was amazing! Boyfriend had the Cottage Pie special and Black Bean Soup and enjoyed both. We split the giant gluten-free chocolate chip cookie, which had peanuts butter, was served warm, with whipped cream on the side - delicious! Vanilla Hazelnut Macchiato was a great, warm way to finish the meal. Will def be back to try more of the regular menu and see the new specials. read more

Great little nook in siesta key! Decent prices and great food portions. Good for groups, kids, and a casual environment. We came in around 10:30am on a Saturday morning without reservations and we were sat within 5 minutes. The wait staff is super friendly and brought out our food and drinks quickly. Our waitress was Renee and she did a great job of getting all of our 12 orders correct and to the table in a timely fashion. I ordered the latte with a single shot and it was so fresh, recommend getting this or any of the coffees on the menu. The food menu has a wide variety of options that can fit anyone's palate. I ordered the costa rican crepe, it was delicious and filling with the generous amount of veggies & black beans. I would definitely recommend getting this dish if you're a fan of black beans and veggies! I also posted some of the other entrees my friends ordered and got nothing but good reviews from everyone. read more

Great place! Friendly waitstaff- kombucha on tap. Different choices for various dietary restrictions-Vegan- what's there not to like?!

Simon Says, "Get to my Coffee House immediately" And then, when you're there...good luck deciding what you want because it all sounds amazing. Seriously, the 4 of us debated what to get for a solid 10 minutes. And then reconsidered about 3 more times because we wanted it all. Even talked about coming back for lunch and dinner without hesitation. So here's the winners: Wheatgrass Shot: A healthy boost of nutrients to get you started Scandinavian Plate: I've been hearing about how amazing this dish was for the last 3 days...if that's not enough to make you want it, I'm not sure what is. Turkey Club Crepe: A very healthy amount of turkey, that's for sure. I would totally order this again, but with less turkey and probably ask to add some scrambled egg. The best part: The house made lemon dill ranch. Seriously, I wanted to lick my plate. I'd put this sauce on SO many dishes if I had a bottle of it in my fridge. Tuscan Wrap: Full of flavor but a bit messy. The pesto is delicious but gets a little runny, so ask for a few extra napkins. Overall, a great find. We were well taken care of from the staff, enjoyed the hip atmosphere and of course loved our meals. read more

Our family stopped by Simons Coffee House on our trip to see my brother in Florida. What a gem! The service was just lovely- everyone was so friendly and they even remade our daughters crepe when she didn't like the cream cheese in the filling. It was delicious- she just was being a picky 9 year old. The food was amazing. Highly recommend the Price Phillip platter. The spanakopita was the best I've ever had. They even refilled our coffee in to go mugs as we left. Great experience all round. If you're in the area- stop by. You won't regret it! read more

My sister and I went to Simon's today for the first time in a while and our server was out of this world! Maya was friendly, personable, and took great care of us while we ate lunch. I got the Caprese panini and my sister got the Tex Mex and we both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. We will definitely be coming back to Simon's, we love the food and service! Make sure you try the peanut butter chocolate chip cookies if you go visit! read more

Friendly waitresses. Bob Marley reggae music. Damn good Tex mex burger. Full of flavor. Very nice roll too. Avocado, onion, bean cheese burger. Mount Fuji iced green tea is huge and lemony.

Oh, boy. I'd like to keep this place a secret. D E L I C I O U S vegan food. Best I've had in all of Sarasota. Fantastic drinks - coffees, juices, etc... Wonderfully unique vegan offerings as well as non-vegan options, by the look of the menu. Staff, including the owner, are genuinely friendly. And attentive. So much on the menu to try. Love the beans they serve for breakfast as well as the greens (rhyme unintended). There's not the clearest signage for the place - it's tucked in a strip mall (imagine that, Florida) and the place is clean, comfortable (clean restrooms!) and has outdoor seating as well. A must visit for vegans and non! read more

Four of us came for breakfast. Homey ambiance, friendly staff. Menu is on the British side - broiled tomato slice, beans, bangers, etc. I had the Full Monty, and full I was. I can eat a lot, but could barely finish the beans, though everything was excellent. My eggs looked very orange, like they had used the extra yolks from the egg white skillets in my scramble. The ladies that ordered the egg white scramble thought they were very good, nicely complemented with the olives and spinach. Coffee is good here. Bottom line: this place delivers what they say they will. Prices were not cheap, but a reasonable value for what you get which is a lot! read more

Very cute spot with vegan and non vegan options. Quick breakfast service and very friendly. We want to come back for lunch.

My new go-to in Sarasota for breakfast and lunch, and I cant wait to try Tyler's at night when the owner's son takes over for dinner! The atmosphere here is great, homey and inviting, honestly I want to kick back and stay all day. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and gave me great recommendations! I've had takeout panini caprese, which was tasty and hearty! Today, I had breakfast of a delicious Mocha coffee and the Costa Rican Crepe, so delicious vegetables were perfect and eggs delicious, crepe light and fluffy. I'll be returning often.... read more
