Sea Oats Caffè - St. Augustine

Liked this place a lot. Food was pretty good pancakes were unbelievable and biscuits and gravy were great. The space inside is very tight not too comfortable. But service is friendly and prices are good. Would recommend for casual brunch!

We didn 't even make it to a table. We love breakfast. We usually go to Sunday or Beach side, but we were excited to go to Sea Oats today. We have been excited all week to visit. We 've been looking at the menu, picking out what we want, excited about what we will order for the baby and when we got there, we were utterly disappointed. When we got to the door to walk in, the door was opened by a woman with a clipboard who looked at us and said what 's your name? . We were confused since we hadn 't even gotten inside yet. Then we looked at her for a second and she repeated herself...this time it was really snotty. We said we haven 't put our name in yet and she told us there is a wait but she didn 't know how long it was going to be. I asked if she even had an estimated guess of how long and she refused to give us any idea of how long. She saw that we were holding a baby and I finally interrupted her and said , we have the baby and would just like to know if there is an estimated wait time and she said that there was no way to know...could be 15 minutes, could be an hour. I was confused because we 're food service business owners and human beings who have eaten out before, so we know how estimating wait times works. She walked past us holding the door and not letting us in. She yelled for someone else to come in and get their table and closed the door behind her, never acknowledging us again. We decided that we would wait since we had been looking forward to it and I went in to ask if there was a restroom where I could change the baby. The same woman told me that it was all the way back to the right. I weaved through the tables (several were empty) and found the restroom. There was no place to change the baby. We left. Granted it 's a small place packed with as many tables as they can fit into it, but the attitude and rudeness of the woman with the clipboard was unacceptable. It 's hard to imagine such an unpleasant experience when we didn 't even get a chance to eat. As locals, we 're really disappointed and we will let our local friends know.

Rude and unhelpful waitress. Immediately felt like we were bothering her when we walked in and overheard her talking bad about a customer. Was told at 11:30 that she had made the decision they would only be doing breakfast even though there was nothing stating you couldn’t order lunch at this time she said and while she probably could make an exception she was choosing not to even though the place was half empty. We ended up leaving and will not be returning.

We found this place on the sign on the back of the building. We were wondering how A1A was looking for breakfast. Our party of 4 decided after reviewing pictures of food online. It was AMAZING! We stayed in the area for 3 days and every 3 days our party of 4 went to this place for breakfast. I've never been so loyal to a restaurant in my life! We ordered something different every day and had to share one of their huge signature pancakes at the table. All we had was so good! The staff was friendly, the place was clean and the prices were fair. Next time we're in the area we'll be back!

A small business with good food and good vibes. I enjoyed seeing my food being made.
