City Coffee Company

I drove by several times so decided to stop by this time because there was no other place opened before 9am on Saturday (strange, I know!).
The place has convenient parking and easy to find. Inside is spacious with lots of windows so plenty of sunlight.
I ordered The Hobbit (portobello burger with caramelized onions and Brie on a ciabbata bun with roasted tomatoes spread). It tasted very nice and I love when they don’t skimp on the veggies. It was served with pretzel sticks and honey mustard on the side (which didn’t add to the meal, would have much preferred some fresh fruits).
I also decided to try a couple of items from the bakery case. The vegan muffin was alright. It tasted good but the texture was a little off. The croissant seemed a little stale but I didn’t get it toasted, not sure if that would’ve made a difference.
For drink I wanted to try the London Fog. The barista took care in making it, which I appreciated. This is an Earl Grey tea with steamed milk (chose soy) with vanilla syrup. It wasn’t too sweet so I was able to finish most of it.

Healthy, reasonably priced & beautifully presented meals. Relaxed, clean, modern setting.

I have seen this place twice a day when I’m traveling to work. Today it was just before lunch and the lot looked fairly empty. I thought it was a pure coffee shop but I looked at it on Unilocal.There I found about to was also a café. So flip the B-​,*.- and turned in the parking lot. Ok the place is pretty cool looking with some lounge areas and a couple of hightop tables. They offer some sandwiches and danishes. They also have the scones/​stones that built the castle thingy down the road. I went in for a scone and a BLT sandwich. My scone was came put first cause it has been around for a few hundred years. Hard as an old brick but had some fruity flavors. When my sandwich came out the presentation was absolutely beautiful. They had a small thin piece of paper wrapped around it and some butcher’s twine tied into an easy open knot. There also was a small pitcher of small pretzels with a honey mustard dipping sauce. My sandwich was good. It could have used some more bacon on it but it was your normal BLT. The bread was the same that they use on their flatbreads. In all it was a really good sandwich. They open fairly early for St Aug to. I know I’ll be back.

What’s amazing about this place is the care they take with the food — it takes a little longer than I would have expected, because they make almost everything from scratch. When I ordered a turkey, bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich, it took about ten minutes. When it came out, I saw why: it was presented on a bamboo cutting board, wrapped in paper tied with string and garnished with a sprig of fresh rosemary. The turkey was freshly roasted turkey breast — not the usual deli slices, and the bacon was thick and fantastic. This was really delicious. Happy and friendly service. I love this place.

The breakfast food is AWESOME. We had a little bit of a wait to receive our food, but it was totally worth it. I got the turkey bowl (with bacon added), and my boyfriend got the tofu bowl. We were both amazed at the size of the dishes and everything tasted incredible. I definitely recommend!

Not impressive, starbuck is way better being a chain and the # 1 coffee shop in St. Augustine is Kookaburra. Customer Service and quality of drinks not good

Beautiful breakfast sandwiches
Stopped here while on vacation with wife, two children (3 and 6) and grandparents. My iced latte was unspectacular but the sausage double egg and cheese sandwich was delicious. Definitely not «fast» food, the in-​laws commented on speed of service but quickly changed their tune when they saw, then tasted, their delicious sandwiches. Served with a sprig of rosemary and wrapped in wax paper tied with string. Recommended to anyone with time to enjoy a delicious, and beautiful, sandwich… but don’t be in a hurry…

So good and such a happy surprise. We were about to walk across town for a nice americano and this place was right out the front door. Looked good. Why not, right?
Great coffee, terrific Tofu breakfast bowls that would cost twice as much most places. Very nice folks. We’re going back later today!

Location (a little ways from old town) leads to less traffic, easier parking, more reasonable prices, and no crowds.
The coffee was average, I would give it 3 out of 5 stars. We tried a plain iced coffee and an iced dirty chai. Decent, but it didn’t wow me.
The food on the other hand…5 stars, no doubt! We split a smoked salmon flat bread and it was delicious! Loads of avocado, a fair amount of pickled onions and arugula and some tasty cream cheese.
Some other details — staff was friendly and helpful, décor and seating were nice, bathrooms were clean, and they had the added extra touch of free, fruit-​infused water.
Will definitely be back if I’m ever in St. Augustine again!

Great coffee and food. Love the atmosphere. Friendly staff. Defenetly great for bfast and lunch. Healthy choices and great prices.

Great food good atmosphere. Went there for brunch had the breakfast wrap I’d highly recommend that. Coffee was very good as well. Staff was very friendly and attentive. They had a live band so inside was kind of loud but they had a outdoor seating area. Overall a very good experience, food was great, and a very good presentation of the food when they brought it out to you.

Great coffee, great sandwiches. Service is fast and friendly. I highly recommend this coffee house.

Local and delicious! New owners are doing an amazing job. Loved my Florentine Melt (no turkey) — one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever eaten. My Vanilla Latte Frappé was better than any drink I’ve gotten at Starbucks. My husband got a flatbread, which he also enjoyed. They change up the flatbreads frequently, which is a nice touch. The presentation of the food is also lovely. Will definitely be back, highly recommend!

Let me get this right you are gonna charge me, between two and three dollars for a cuppa tea. You are going to hand me a cup of hot water I have to put the teabag in it… seriously. Most places do this, it’s so tasteless, learn how to make a cuppa tea.

Close to, but outside of, the historic district makes this choice for drinks and sweets.

I was looking for just a cup of tea and left this place with a delicious egg sandwich breakfast. My choice of tea was a chai latte and it was perfect.
I was a little bit afraid that it could be too spicy like some I have gotten in other places. Even tough I got my meal to go the place look nice and clean, comfortable enough to eat there. Service was fast and friendly. Would come again.

We tried to go on Friday night, July 17. We arrived at 5:40 to find locked doors and nobody in sight. The posted hours are until 6: pm. ??? This was my recommendation despite others’ warnings about their experiences. Sadly, it was my first and probably my only experience I’ll have with them.

In a world filled with a Starbucks on every corner, it’s nice to stumble onto a coffee shop that is locally owned and operated. City Coffee Company has two locations in St. Augustine– one in the heart of the downtown historical district and one just outside of touristy area.
We stopped in on a Sunday morning for some bagels and what we left with was so much more. The atmosphere is creative, students from Flagler College studying, writers on their computers and friends gathering for a casual breakfast. The place felt homey and welcoming. Coffee was everywhere.
We placed our order and waited only a few short minutes while our breakfast was freshly prepared in a small kitchen behind the counter. Chad ordered a tuna bagel melt sandwich which he really enjoyed. When I make tuna salad at home, I tend to be a little more generous with the mayonnaise than he would prefer, so he liked the tuna here. It was tuna without all the bells and whistles, without the heavy mayo, relish, onions and other ingredients. It was just fresh tuna on a bagel with a slice of tomato and melted cheese.
He also sprung for the cheese danish which was very good and fresh as well.
I had the Florentine Melt– turkey with provolone cheese, pesto, spinach and tomato– only I removed the turkey. I loved the Asiago bread– the cheese was perfectly melted and the pesto was super flavorful. My sandwich also came with a side of chips.
Other menu items include egg burritos, bagels, salads, sandwiches and smoothies.
This is sure to be a regular stop for us when we are in St. Augustine. There are plenty of options on the menu for anyone’s tastes and lots of coffee and tea selections.

I accompanied a friend to a meeting here the other day and while I didn’t have anything to drink or eat I can say that this place has a vibe that will bring me back again.
I am a big fan of local coffee shops and from what I saw of this place, I can tell that they are doing something right.
Hope to have a review of the menu sometime soon, but I thought people should know about this place b/​c had I not gone here with my friend at the suggestion of the people she was meeting I would have never known it was here and that’s a shame.

I did a grab and go breakfast sandwich: plain bagel (scooped out for less bread) with turkey, one egg and cheese. I also grabbed two of the nutty goodness bars for a $ 13 dollar total. A little pricey but I tweaked what they offered on the menu. I was happy with my food and best part was the bagel.
I loved the inside and could easily see myself hanging out. The barista was pretty cool. The café is next to the holiday inn so it’s perfect for breakfast on the run if you’re a guest.
