Florida Cracker Cafe

The New England clam chowder was amazing. Just the right amount of everything. Fried green tomato BLT was delish with lots of crispy bacon. Very nice test that's not available everywhere. We had Ryan as our waiter. We were well taken care of. Ask for him!

Friendly service! Get the cornbread- you won't be disappointed! The fries are crispy and delicious.

We went to St. Augustine to see the Nights of Lights. We only had a little bit of time for dinner before our trolley tour. We stopped in the Florida Cracker Cafe and were glad we did. Our server was super friendly and attentive. The food came out quickly and was hot and fresh. We had plenty of time to spare to get to our trolley. We all enjoyed everything we ate. The restaurant was decorated for Christmas and Christmas music was playing so it added ambiance to our Christmas celebration. We will be back!

Sat outside on a beautiful day, fast service, delicious food. Ordered the fried green tomatoes appetizer special, burger , shrimp po boy, grilled cheese and tomato soup. The sides were excellent (French fries, cheesy grits, coleslaw and cucumber salad). Excellent, friendly service!

We love Florida cracker, and this experience did not disappoint! We took our out-of-town guests here for lunch while we were walking around St Augustine. It was the perfect timing because it was not packed and we got a perfect table on their outdoor patio!I chose the fried green tomato BLT, our friends chose the fried shrimp, lunch, and the peel and eat shrimp. Both are absolutely fantastic! The batter on the fried shrimp was light and not too caked on, and the quality of both shrimps was extremely fresh. My fried green tomato BLT was absolutely mouthwatering! The batter on the fried green tomato was also light and it paired so well with the bacon and the fresh lettuce! I would absolutely order that again! Highly recommend!! This location is perfect for people with children because the outdoor patio is sectioned off to the side, it is also off the main area, and is spacious so if you have a mobile child, it is nice for them to be able to get up and move around!

The first time I ate here, it was on a weekend vacation to St. Augustine, coming up with Chops and Ufredo. It was one of many "unique" restaurants along the walkway in Old Town St. Augustine, and one I haven't eated at yet. Ergo, I voted for this place for dinner. Overall, it was okay.Firstly, the restaurant seems to have an ambiance of an open-air dive you'd see in Key West mixed in with the hacienda style best known in Spanish architecture. Ergo, a hybrid of styles that is distinctly Floridian. There was ample room for patrons to enjoy company and a bar for those who'd like some kind of spirit with their meals and/or apps.My crew and I sat at a table. Had the classic picnic table look and the chairs weren't that comfy, but they were functional. Food was satisfactory. I ordered the gator tail and conch fritters. I also had Minorcan soup with was the highlight dish for me. My friends had different styles of shrimp which they said were delicious too. For a $$ price tag of between $11 to $30, not bad at all.Where our initial visit shined positively in was service. Our servers were on par and admirable. Very friendly, kept our drinks filled, and even had some light conversation since we are technically tourists despite being Floridians.Compared to other restaurants along the Old St. Augustine town walkway, there are definitely better options for a higher price. But for the simple Floridian fare The Cracker Cafe serves at the price they offer it, you should surely stop by if you want a good meal on budget.On a sidenote, there are no "restaurant restrooms" and you'll need to go to the many restrooms strategically located along the walkway.

Stumbled into this place walking down St. George street in St. Augustine and was pleasantly surprised! The fried shrimp is a fresh and tasty as you'll find and the famous "pink sauce" to dip it in was incredible! Our server was so helpful and friendly. She's been working here 17 years! The cheese grits were as good as I've ever had! The atmosphere is cute and quaint. I'd eat here again in a heartbeat. They even home make several of their salad dressings.

Review: Gator bites, hummus, "Gator Bite" featured cocktail.Came here on a busy Friday afternoon and were sat right away. Server was prompt and super welcoming and wearing super fun skull socks. Ambiance is laid back and relaxed. Husband had the black bean hummus and the kiddo and I split the gator tail, his first time!!Husband really like the flavor and citrus undertones. It's mixed well and the salted kettle chips that are homemade really take it to the next flavor level. The gator bites were served with their own marmalade sauce, tasted like a sweet chili, and a side of lemon. Gator is usually chewy but they tenderized it nicely. The breading was not overly seasoned and the lemon with the marmalade hit it perfect. Their featured cocktail " The Gator Bite" is something I would make at home and really hides the vodka and moscato. Great for a hot day, will def visit again.

Stopped in for a quick visit, had a few drinks with the shrimp and grits. Food was excellent along with great service!! We will be back!

My husband and I went here about 3 years ago and absolutely loved it. We went back this past week and it was just as good as we remembered. The staff is amazing from the managers to the servers. This will always be our go to place when in the area.
