Our Guestbook
“ This place was awesome! What a great spot to stop for lunch with a great view! We were there in late February and got to see so many manatees! We also did some paddle boarding next-door at urban Kai. You can rent paddle boards from them. What a great experience! But back to Patrona...their menu is extensive. I ordered the blackened mahi tacos and the buffalo cauliflower. Both spectacular. I would definitely get them again. The place was pretty busy at lunchtime. But they do have a parking lot next-door for additional parking. Stop by! ”
“ I really enjoyed the vibe at Patrona Costal Cafe in St. Pete. I decided to give it a whirl on my way to my hotel for work one Wednesday morning. I ordered the caramel latte and the avocado toast. I didn't realize it was attached to the getaway so I walked over there to wash my hands. When I returned, my avocado toast and coffee were ready to pick up. I quickly took a seat facing the water. The reason I gave it 4 stars were because the birds were unruly. The coffee was meh, too. I truly loved the spot and the avocado toast though, so definitely go for that and the view. but the birds really ruined my experience. ”
“ While, in Tampa, me and my friends were in search of a cute coffee shop. I came across this place when I was researching places online and we were not disappointed! This place is hands-down the cutest and most delicious coffee shop I have ever been to. It is tucked away in Clearwater Florida and is right on the water. The vibes are off of the chart. They have a coffee shop, a food truck, and it is also attached to a restaurant that has two separate bars. It seems like there isn't enough seating but this place is huge. You just have to keep walking and you'll find a spot. You can sit on the deck, you can sit in the Adirondack chairs or you can sit on the beach. They also have Kayaks to rent and take out if you want. I wish I had a place like this back where I live in New York because I would go here all the time. It is just the best place to grab a coffee or grab food and sit out on the water and relax. We got coffee and food and after we got alcoholic drinks. Is the best time!!! ”
“ This location is a little far for me and I was reminded today why it is worth the drive. Beautiful views and just the cutest spot. It takes a minute for the staff to create your perfect beverage, but they have a pager system and it's worth the wait. The Banana Bay cold brew was quite possibly the best coffee drink I've ever had in my life....and I drink a lot of coffee. 12/10! ”
“ Vibes are immaculate Great space to grab a drink and work, perfect costal vibes and the great breakfast option for grab and go or dine in ”
“ LOVE it here so much!! It was pretty crowded when we went but 100% worth the wait. The food, drinks and over all vibes were perfect. Some places feel like you pay a lot for good vibes and mediocre food but not here. I feel like the quality and overall experience more than justify the price. My croissant sandwich was THICK and the potatoes that came with it were crispy and well seasoned. It was so hard to decide what to get and the only thing I'm bummed about is that I don't live closer so I can go anytime I want. ”
“ Found this spot on Instagram and, as expected, it's packed. However, I would say that it was worth it. Yes it's a little expensive ($9 for a 16oz latte) but unique flavors and the tropical vibe makes it worth while. This is a perfect spot to bring family that's out of state to experience Florida's tropical beauty. The drinks were bitter at first but they get sweet and delicious. I liked the Samoan cookie more than the banana one. The grownup grilled cheese was PHENOMENAL. I didn't necessary love the guava toast though. There was a dolphin coming in and out of the water so it's a cool experience and the sand in the eating area just makes it feel like a vacation/tropical getaway even for the locals. ”
“ This hidden little gem is magical! It literally feels like you are in the rain forest! Parking can be a challenge on busy weekends, but it's a short walk from the beach parking next door. You order at the counter, and they give you a buzzer to pick up your food and drinks at the food truck. Plenty of seating and amazing views! I love the coconut iced matcha, and all the food we've tried was great. Love the addition of fresh fruit to every dish! Enjoyed the breakfast croissant, quiche, avocado toast, grilled cheese, and don't sleep on the giant cinnamon roll! Order one for the table and thank me later! ”
