“We had a fantastic experience with the crepes atCapriccio Cafe! We ordered two Nutella crepes with strawberry and bananas, and they were absolutely delicious. The older gentleman who greeted us inside was incredibly sweet. We'll definitely be stopping by again when we're back in town! Highly recommended!“

“Awesome food, service, atmosphere, bathrooms - everything! Great selection of beers, food and coffee. Immaculately clean, great outdoor space for kids and pets. Our new favorite spot. Smash burger and quinoa bowl were fantastic, as well as the affogato. Highly recommend.Kid-friendliness: Great grassy area for kids and pets to play.“

“12/30/2022First time trying their macrons and they were good but the white icing tasted very much like cake icing and very sweet. The raspberry filling was a delicious surprise inside the macron and the green macron after tasted like there was coconut inside.Overall beautiful design and tasted good.“

“Easily the best coffee shop/café in the area, and I’ve tried all of them! My go-to order, the Vanilla Latte with almond milk, is a standout for its perfect balance—not too strong or too sweet.It pairs well with the breakfast sandwich: bacon, egg, & cheese on a freshly-baked croissant. You can really taste the quality and freshness, setting it apart from the rest.The atmosphere here is unmatched—offering a spacious interior with ample seating and plenty of power outlets, making it an ideal spot for work or study. The vibe is just right for productivity or relaxing with a good book and your favorite drink.“

“Croissant sandwich was wonderful. Ham would have been a better pick than turkey though, on my part. Ordered a latte with no flavor. Was hoping to add my own sugar substitute, but after only two packets it was SO sweet, they had to have added sweetener. I just wanted milk and espresso. Good variety, small shop, looks like a locals go-to. Wish it were open on Sundays & Mondays...“

“This is a must have hidden gem in Niceville Florida. Excellent service and food. Beautiful cozy welcoming atmosphere. Fresh roast/ brewed Coffee. The medium roast was excellent for me. The Down Home breakfast maple bacon , cheesy grits, egg your way and sour dough toast was the hot for me. Tasty seasoned correctly and enjoyable.A recommend choice and I will be returning.“

“This place was the BEST FIND! We are from out of town and my son and I stopped in for a shake before I figured out what to do for the rest of the day. First of all, the brownie batter shake was delicious! They even had teas for kids, which my four year old loved. Furthermore, the staff was incredibly friendly. We ended up staying for over an hour talking to the staff, who gave me recommendations for the rest of our day. They had a perfect play area for kids too and my son had a blast playing while I chatted to the owner and her very talented barista best friend who was inventing some very impressive, colorful teas. The service was fantastic and the drinks were phenomenal. Overall, this was a great establishment and I highly recommend you stop in and say hi to the ladies at Ocean City Nutrition!“

“Swanky place in the best way possible, with diverse activities. There are so many activities and space for self-expression & connecting with others. Menu is limited but delicious. Pet friendly. Service is top-notch.Parking: Street parking and public parking lot in back“

“Beautiful little coffee shop in the heart of downtown Fort Walton. Outdoor seating was gorgeous with beautiful flowers. The inside had a good coffee shop ambiance. We really enjoyed our lattes and the barista was nice. My only complaint was she was by herself so service was very slow (no fault to her). The coffee shop inside was pretty tiny, so having a sit down inside might be tight. Outside was the best option, so weather dependent. Otherwise a great little gem.Dietary restrictions: Dairy free options available“

“The scramble bowls were really tasty. I liked the Denver without potatoes and my wife had the same with potatoes. Both could have been a little hotter, but they were good. The beignets were delicious and steaming hot. They got a bit carried away with the powdered sugar (next time I will tell them to go a little easy on that) but I will be back for more.“

“Went here to order a cheesecake for my fiancé’s bday. Had lunch. It was so good. I wasn’t expecting the flavors I got from this little hole on the wall bakery but lunch (chicken salad croissant and salad) was sogood I ordered an entire cheesecake. Coconut cake was moist but not too sweet. Love love love. I’ll be back. Thanks a million. My fiancé said it was the best cheesecake he ever had!“

“Not only are the pastries and coffee amazing, but the staff is so kind. My little one spilled my entire iced coffee on the ground (my fault for not keeping a close eye on it) and they were not bothered at all by having to clean it up and even replaced my coffee Will definitely be back and excited to support a local business.“

“So so so so so happy with my experience here!! We originally went to a waffle house (spoiler alert: don’t go) and the workers there were incompetent. We ended up leaving before eating there and chose Cafe Destin on a whim and honestly could not be happier with our decision. The restaurant (and bathrooms!) are very clean and everything looks very well maintained. The workers were very friendly and were quick to clear tables and make sure you’re doing well. You order at a counter, seat yourself, and they bring your food to you— so you don’t have to wait on a waiting list. The food is SO GOOD. No one in my group left even a crumb on our plate because everything was delicious- and the portion sizes were perfect. Big big big fan of our experience and would recommend to everyone:)“

“I love this place! They make the BEST protein shakes and Energy drinks! If you're looking for a healthy alternative for breakfast or lunch or even a pick me up in the day, this is the place to be! T will take care of you!!! They have weight loss programs here that help manage and lose or even gain weight. I highly recommend the powdered donut shake (which tastes exactly like a donut) or the waffle shake and a Beauty and the Beast Tea Bomb! You will not regret it! 100%. Try it out.“

“Excellent coffee roasted locally by the owners. Recommend buying beans for your home brews too! Açaí, smoothies, and kombucha are my favorite go-tos. Very friendly and knowledgeable owners and staff. Stop in for a snack or sit and enjoy a slow morning with a cup of joe. Roast’d Cafe is a unique and enjoyable spot in Destin.“

“Pictures do not do justice on how great this place is. I think it was nice to see that each drink/food truck was separated. I think the plants make the place even better! They even have comfy chairs! I will definitely be coming here again when I visit this area. I hope yall have more business and a successful year!“

“Cant believe this place has been here 2 years and I had no idea. It's nice to have biscuits and gravy that isn't the white instant, bland gravy most places have. The potatoes were a nice change from other places as well. The eggs were well made, as well as scrambled could be. My ham side was huge and will make a nice sandwich later. Just wanted to help put this little tucked away spot on the map.“

“This place was great. It was my wife and I first time on Okaloosa Island and we came here after our lunch for some Gelato. I had the raspberry cheesecake and strawberry and she had the blood orange sherbet. We will definitely come back for more before we leave.“

“We had a pleasant experience with both bartenders we interacted with, it's Pool side so it's very convenient while having a pool day to grab a beverage and one day we even ate lunch. The kitchen area is outside and small but the cook did a phenomenal job preparing our food. We had some burgers, chicken tenders cucumber salad and a grilled chicken wrap. All of which where delicious. I didn't have high expectations for the food to be fair. I think a seasoned cook properly seasoning the food made all the difference. The burgers were delicious all the toppings seemed really fresh. Cucumber salad was the same ingredients seemed fresh and like I said everything was perfectly seasoned.“
