“My husband works in Gulf Gate, just a few storefronts down from Clever Cup, and we have been getting coffee from here since they have opened. I can honestly say that I have NEVER had a bad experience and the coffee and baked goods are always delicious! The baristas are amazing and although we probably shouldn't have favorites, I simply adore Veronika and Karissa. The two of them are always ready with a smile, a cheerful, 'Good Morning!' and even if I've had an icky start to my day, the two of them are always able to brighten my mood and I wind up walking out with delicious coffee and a smile. We love to shop local and this is one of the places we will ALWAYS support. Thanks, Clever Cup, we love you! 🥰“

“What a wonderful restaurant. I have traveled extensively in France and found this hidden jewel in my backyard. The food is not only exceptional, but also true to French cuisine. You have to try the croissants and baguettes which are freshly prepared daily. The crepes and sandwiches are superb as well as the desser pastries. I strong recommend this restaurant. It is definitely worth the drive.“

“Captain Curt's Crab & Oyster Bar: Review Overview: During a visit to Siesta Beach, we made sure to stop at Captain Curt’s Crab & Oyster Bar. The establishment is notably spacious, featuring two large outdoor Tiki areas where guests can relax with a drink or enjoy a meal. One of the Tiki areas includes a stage for live music, enhancing the lively atmosphere. Surrounding the main restaurant is Captain Curt’s Village, which offers a gift shop and several other stores within easy walking distance. The restaurant itself is clean, well-organized, and provides a laid-back vibe that we thoroughly enjoyed. Parking: Parking can be a challenge, as spaces are limited. We were able to find free parking right beside the restaurant, but there are also lots nearby available for a small fee. Service and Drinks: Our waitress, Renee, provided excellent and friendly service. We ordered Pina Coladas, served in large Captain Curt’s keepsake cups. The drinks were enjoyable, but the alcohol tended to settle at the bottom, so it’s important to stir before drinking to avoid a strong first sip. Food Experience: We sampled the clam chowder, which is advertised as the “World’s Best Clam Chowder.” While it may not be the best in the world, we found it very tasty with plenty of clams. My Captain’s Platter consisted of boiled Tripletail Fish, Bay Scallops, Gulf Shrimp, Mashed Potatoes, and mixed Vegetables, all of which were good. The Clam Basket, served with fries and Cole Slaw, was also very good. Additionally, the fish and chips were enjoyable. All food was served hot and in generous portions, leaving us both full when we finished. Overall Impression: We appreciated the quality of the food, the drinks, and the relaxed atmosphere. Overall, we would rate Captain Curt’s Crab & Oyster Bar 4 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gulf Coast Terry“

“Cozy little bakery with plenty of pastries to choose from. The staff was so nice and patient. We tried different frittatas and cinnamon rolls, everything was great. My boyfriend had a peanut butter protein shake that was just yummy! Will definitely go back next time we visit.“

“Fast, friendly, cheap, high quality, tasty, healthy treats, breakfast and lunch sandwiches, soup and salad too.“

“Hands down, the best coffee I have ever had! It’s been months and I’m still thinking about it. What’s it going to take to get you guys up in Northern Virginia?!? 🙏🏼🤎“

“amazing service go see keishaly“

“Awesome experience. Amazing ice cream! Highly recommend for all!“

“Good food and service at the Wilmington, DE location“

“Choosing a new place for coffee this morning was probably the best decision I'll make all day. Macadamia nut definitely belongs in a latte. And the Bad Ass One sandwich was so good I could have eaten three of them. Will definitely come back and bring friends.“

“all around the best around“

“We loved everything - crepes, croissants 🥐 & crookies! 🍪“

“I am not a big StarBucks follower because I like to check out nonchalant coffee shops but this Starbucks really got my attention. The workers were all so friendly and didn't mind chatting with the customers. The restaurant was clean, spacious and comfortable. Plenty of parking. Easy to get into off 41.“

“Celebrating our youngest daughter’s birthday and engagement, what a beautiful morning, great pastries, amazing croissants, and the drinks were divine!“

“This is a really good Starbucks! We order via mobile and our order is always ready when we arrive for pickup. Our beverages are always made perfectly and our sandwiches are hot and toasty. At least one or more barista always greets us when we pick up our order!“

“Fresh roasted beans = coffee epiphany.“

“Great team and some of the friendliest people I've ever met! Love the crew at Derek Ave“

“My family and I spent the afternoon at this pleasant ice cream shop. In addition to the excellent quality of the ice cream, the service was fantastic, including the pets. This filled me with joy.“

“Great food, great people.“

“Delicious french food!! Best french restaurant!“

“I like the vibration at Whole Foods. Everyone is polite, they seem to be happy working there and there’s a wonderful selection. I particularly like the produce department and the seafood although I will admit it’s a little pricey. But you can get good deals. I also like their Large prepared food section, and bakery. I feel privileged to have this store so close to me and to have this free parking right there in the Center of Sarasota. By using my Amazon prime card, I get further discounts when items are on sale. I shop there frequently.“

“Wonderful little coffee cafe! After church we stopped in for breakfast, coffee & oj by donation. Indoor tables plus lots of seating on the patio w tables. The awning is new since our last visit! (We're from out of state). Hope to be back soon!

Kid-friendliness: Family-friendly atmosphere and it's location is not near busy streets.

Parking: It's located in from of the church and there's well over 50 slots. The coffee shop is at the front left corner of the building.

Wheelchair accessibility: I saw one lady in a wheelchair and another who was using a scooter so I know there was a ramp even though I didn't see it personally.“

“This place is AMAZING! Great Czech food. Highly recommended. We will come back again!“

“My first time to this Starbucks, and was incredibly impressed by the service here, namely a lovely Server named Ash! She answered my stupid questions and cared so much to get my order correct. My order was PERFECT, THANK YOU ASH!! I will be coming back again.

Parking: Just park in front of Target, enter left-side doors, and Starbucks is inside the door on left-side, very quick in and out!“

“WONDERFUL lemon curd cheesecake, quaint store, good latte. Served with real plates and silverware by a very kind, patient man. I’m so glad I decided to try this bakery!“

“This is by far the BEST Starbucks location and I travel all over the state of Florida and other States for work so I’ve stopped at 100’s of Starbucks locations. The service is great and they always take pride in making the perfect drink. I am so grateful this is so close to my house!“

“I ordered the Ruby Reuben without realizing it is vegan and it tasted delicious! WouldnI have preferred the turkey reuben? Probably. But still delicious. Also, on a whim, I ordered lemonade and it was honestly the best lemonade I have had since 1998.

Staff was super chill and friendly. Excellent service. Quick draw on the check cause I needed to get to my next appointment.“

“This is my home Starbucks so I always go to it. The employees have always been awesome and have always gone out of the way to make me feel special by doing things like remembering my name. Today I had an experience that reminded me just how special this Starbucks is. As I pulled out my wallet to pay, I unknowingly dropped a 20 dollar bill on the ground. I was lucky that the lady behind me noticed and she picked it up and handed it back to me. This was very kind of her and being a poor college student I can use every dollar I got. I didn't really know what to do repay her other than say thank you. The employee who was ringing up the lady gave Her free drink on the house. I thought that was incredibly cool and I was grateful that Starbucks could help me show my thanks. Just another sample of how amazing my home Starbucks is!“
