What an amazing place! Came here due to the great reviews and did not disappoint. Me and my husband both had the breakfast sandwiches ( mine with bacon - he tried the shaved ribeye). They offer choices of breads when was nice. The shaved ribeye was a unique offering and very tasty. The owners were friendly as were the other customers willing to share their knowledge of St Augustine. The coffee was excellent. The price is affordable. Nice job Zaba's. We will be back. read more

Great cafe con leche! Tried the steak egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel. DELICIOUS!! I could eat here every morning if I lived here. The owners were very friendly too.... read more

EDIT!! Went back this morning for another coffee and sandwich. Yes, it's that good. This time I got pictures. Send love to the entire staff. The lady who cooks can make eggs sing!!! Stopped in for coffee and a breakfast sandwich. Forgot to take pictures because I hadn't had any coffee yet but this place is worth the visit. Brandon was so nice and both the coffee and breakfast sandwiches were perfect. The shop is adorable. Service was awesome! Prices were more than reasonable! read more

I went in for a quick bite (grabbed a bagel and an iced latte) and was charmed by the service. The man, and I wish I'd caught his name, was so sweet and patient. I didn't know which latte I wanted, and he didn't rush me. The bagel was what you'd expect: nothing fancy or special, but it hit the spot. The latte was yummy. The silly straw looped into a knot added a bit of whimsy I appreciated. Note that the prices have changed. From the most recent listing on Yelp, everything is about $2 higher. read more

Best breakfast in St. Augustine hands down! My family and I have been vacationing in St. Augustine for almost 20 years, and this was our first time trying Zaba's. The people are so nice, the food came out quickly, and the flavor was amazing. They have the best local sauces and honey! Highly recommend! read more

Perhaps the best find since arriving in the area! Small diner, 1 of 1, very much local color and feel. It's places like Zaba's that give a tourist area some depth. The owner served us, was gracious and provided us a working knowledge of the datil pepper and its history. He also has a range of self-made sauces and a mustard that will change your life (for the better, if there were any doubt). If you come to this area and don't visit, you'll have missed a one-of-a-kind experience. We will be back, and often! read more

The owners are AMAZING! I loved the hospitality and the coffee was great!! Will be back next time in St. Angie!

Fabulous local spot that makes amazing breakfast sandwiches and delicious coffee served up by true Saint Augustine people!

Keep your eyes opened. It's small and easy to miss but worth the hunt to find. We had bacon n potato burrito and mango smoothie ...delish. Also had to try the grilled donut. not a huge menu but everything they serve is really good. Plan on trying the grilled cheese with prime rib shavings next time I go. Owners were so friendly and service was fast. Ask them how they came about the name. Great story. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed our iced lattes, biscuits and gravy, Brandon special, and breakfast burrito with shaved steak. We love supporting good quality local businesses! Prices were very reasonable. The staff there are so personable. We highly recommend!! read more

Best breakfast sammy in St. Aug (bacon egg & cheese on everything bagel is fire) Brandon & Will are culinary masterminds. Eat local!!

Cute little family owned cafe. It is small inside but great for picking up a sandwich and coffee to go. There is seating for about 10 total and we were lucky enough to grab 2 of the 4 seats at the bar and chat for a few minutes. read more

Stopped for coffee's to go mid afternoon. Staff is welcoming & friendly, fun & lively. Coffee was great, perfect temp on a cool day. Just what we wanted. read more

Food was excellent and at a great price. Cool atmosphere and the staff and locals were awesome friendly and made us feel welcome and appreciated. Quite small but cozy. Many I assume were locals picked up to go orders. Cold kept meant not many people out but they were busy but provided quick service. Will be our go to breakfast spot when we choose to go out for breakfast. read more

AMAZING FOOD AND A-1 CUSTOMER SERVICE!! (Yes, I am yelling!). I was visiting for a wedding last week and this jewel popped up on my maps app as a food recommendation. The employees were very helpful with the food choices and so down to earth. They were very familiar with the locals, meaning that they were repeating patrons. I would definitely recommend this local spot to grab some delicious breakfast/lunch and to catch the beach vibes! Day-1 I ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit. The biscuits were so soft that they melted in your mouth. The fresh made Iced Vanilla Latte was the cherry one top! Day-2 (Yes, we ate there two days in a row) I ordered the grilled PB&J w/Bacon! I have never had this combination before; but it was soooo flavorful and good! read more

For real, the breakfast sammie of my dreams, it totally hit the spot! Tiny space, friendly staff and great service. We had a couple of breakfast sandwiches and coffee and juice. You could tell we were mingling with the locals and knew it would be good even before we got our food. We will def hit Zaba's up again and again when we visit St Augustine. Thanks for being great, you can tell y'all love what you do read more

Staying at an AirBNB above Zaba's. Met the owner and he's very friendly. Coffee was great and good prices. BTW, if they have them when you are there, try the Grilled Donut! It's similar to a krispy kreme but warm and not as sweet. read more

A wonderful hole in the wall, where you are greeted as a friend. The food is delicious and prepared to order. The coffee is delicious and fresh. I just wish they didn't use styrofoam and plastic read more

Zaba's - Breakfast burrito with sausage - Coffee & Tea Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

You can go up the street to the diner, which will charge you double, and it has not a half an ounce of character that this place has. It's not so much that it's half the price for breakfast, but their coffee is better. There are seats for a dozen at most. Elbow to elbow. But it has definite character, characters, and their sign is too small. Up the street, you can get a bit of a manufactured feeling, served half cold, bless your heart. The bicuits are doughy, but not here. The chef knows his trade and does it well, again, for half the price and pretension. read more

Easily the best breakfast in St. Augustine. Breakfast burrito disco style? On point. Two egg breakfast with bacon and grits? As good as it can be. Both served with a cheerful heart, and great conversation. Small and cozy, topped off with an atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer than you plan to. Simply put: you can't beat this local spot. read more

Zabas is so family friendly and the owners are awesome guys! Brandon was so welcoming and helped us pick out what we wanted to order and Will quickly made everything and they brought it right out. These guys are business men! So glad we decided to stop here on our road trip! read more

Brandon is the heart and soul of Zaba's. Heck, there's even a coffee named after him. We stayed above this place at the Air B&B. Going downstairs to Zaba's in the mornings was definitely a highlight. read more

What a hoot of a place. Terrific coffee at this anti-Starbucks place. It's like stepping back in time to where Jimmy Buffet meets the Grateful Dead. Enjoy the many funny signs adorning every square in of wall space. read more

Let's be clear: Zaba's has superb food at a great price. However... No one inside wore a mask. People sitting outside mocked those who wore them. This ignorance and cavalier disregard for others lost them two stars. Do not patronize until everything Covid is behind us. read more

Hi! We stopped into this coffee bar to get a quick chai latte and were surprised to see an awesome menu of delicious breakfast and lunch sandwiches. We ordered a Cuban sandwich with the special Zaba's homemade mustard and it was delicious. Everything about it was legit! My 8 yr old daughter despise mustard and loved it. My Cuban husband gave it a double thumbs up. Homemade pulled pork and thick ham were the trick. Plus made with love to order. Only thing that we would have liked more were different coffee cups- wish they were paper and not styrofoam. We would definitely go back again!!!! read more

The customer service gets 5 stars. Super nice people. However, I can't ignore some things. We got coffee, one blended and one hot. Both drinks tasted awful. I couldn't take more than 2 sips. The blended one tasted so gritty. We were going to get breakfast, but, while we were ordering coffee, I could see thru to the kitchen. There was an employee with long hair, lots of bracelets and rings. She was putting raw bacon on a griddle. No gloves, long hair not tied back. There was no way I was going to order food. I am all for small mom and pop places. But basic food safety has to be followed. Like I said, the people were super friendly. But I won't eat at Zabas. Sorry. read more
