“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! 🥰“

“Root & Seed Cafe is absolutely my type of place! From the moment you walk in, you can feel how much heart and care goes into everything they do. The service is wonderful, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the owners are truly such wonderful people.

I also love that everything is made fresh! And the gluten-free desserts are a huge bonus for me. It’s so nice to find a place where I can enjoy delicious, fresh desserts without feeling like I’m missing out.

Five stars all around!!! fresh food, amazing service, a beautiful atmosphere, and genuinely kind owners. You can really taste and feel the care that goes into everything. Highly recommend Root & Seed Cafe! ❤“

“We were on vacation in Sarasota and this place is a must visit! The pastries and baked goods they have are so good and delicious!! Their selection of drinks is amazing as well and has something for everyone! We didn’t try any savory dishes but they were probably really good too. The workers were also so nice and the atmosphere was so chill and cool!!! Would definitely visit again!“

“I wish more people would write reviews when they get awesome service. We were brought to Aroma through our local Chamber of Commerce when we were having some issues with our previous company. Their team came out to sell us on the machine, but also sold us on their service. The Sales, Delivery, and Service are top notch here!“

“First time today! Very good especially since im picky about my coffee.. look forward to my next visit ❤️“

“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.“

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

“I Love this Place! I just discovered that it was here last week when someone told me about it. I went by on my lunch break and had a ham and cheese croissant and an iced coffee. It was delicious! I would normally go to Starbucks, but I must say the difference in the quality of food is night and day. This croissant was fresh. I liked it so much. I went by the next day as well and had a prosciutto tomato and cheese sandwich, with a Nutella iced coffee, and it was excellent! What a Gem of a place! I would highly recommend this to anyone that wants a lite selection of quick service food and a a delicious French coffee! I will be back many more times!“

“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.“

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

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

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

“Stopped on July 23rd for a cappuccino . Best cappuccino I’ve ever had in Florida. Being a big clutz, I spilled half the drink on me. They quickly responded with the cleanup and another cappuccino at no charge. I didn’t ask for it and it was a great gesture. I went back 2 days later with my wife. Here’s the difference- they welcomed us like guests; confirmed exactly what was ordered; brought the food with a smile; asked if I needed anything else; and came back to check on us. The food looked exactly how the website presents it and was exceptionally delicious. The ambiance is engaging, vibrant and the service beyond exceptional. Most similar establishments act like they’re doing you a favor (uh…private equity). It was a bit pricey but the value is well worth it. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Please don’t change.“

“Great little hidden gem in Downtown Sarasota. Great coffee and customer service ☕️“

“One of my favorite places ever of all time. I’m not even vegetarian or vegan and I find myself eating their vegan options regularly! They’re just delicious! The owners are so lovely and kind and it shows in their cooking and service. Can’t understate how much I enjoy this place.“

“Great food, great people.“

“Great coffee, great service, and they let me hang my art! :)“

“Just word of mouth heard of the place. What a well kept secret! The waffles delicious. The “Monkey” mural and motif are colorful and inviting. The dining chairs’ comfort is a cut above most (Yes, we noticed). The waffles exquisite. The waitress was friendly and attentive. The waffles scrumptious. The place deserves to be packed. The price more than reasonable. The waffles just the right amount of crunch and melt in your mouth delight.“

“Our new favorite Italian café! 🇮🇹☕️ Everything here is absolutely delicious. The coffee tastes just like what we enjoyed on our trip to Italy, and the food is incredible—the pizza, focaccia, and croissants are all amazing. You can truly taste the quality and authenticity in everything they make.
The owner is also so kind, welcoming, and genuinely makes you feel at home. We’re so happy we found this little gem and will definitely be coming back again and again. It feels like a little piece of Italy right here! ❤️🇮🇹“

“One of the baristas always recognizes me and we chat briefly if he isn’t too busy.“

“I stopped in to meet with a friend and it was almost perfect. 4/5. I will start with the good. The latte was nice (they have oat and almond milk so happy to have diary free options). I ordered a pistachio muffin and was so excited to see they make them here. It was delicious! Probably one of the best I have had. Thank you for making this flavor! The woman at the counter was very nice and she makes a great latte. The cafe is small but has a decent amount of seating. The vibe is of a quick service cafe. It isn’t trying to be anything that it is not. The baked goods speak for themselves! So far so good! Until I realized there was a woman with her pet dog (not a service dog) at one of the tables INSIDE. She had a full breakfast spread and the dog barked the entire time. We got to hear the dog barking on and off the whole time AND listen to her snap at her dog to stop barking. It gets better. She put the dog in her lap several times (doggy dining health codes for OUTSIDE dining requires dogs to remain on the ground, off furniture/laps, and not use human dishes etc.). At one point the dog jumped on the other chair at her table and ate an entire quiche (or whatever it was) right off the plate. I was incredulous. Was this really happening? Why are we letting this happen? I love dogs and have two well behaved old guys that I will take for outside doggy dining when the weather is not too hot. Health codes are pretty clear about animals. My line of work also has me working closely with those needing properly trained service animals and this woman wasn’t even trying to pretend it was a service dog. Of course I will be back for a muffin and coffee. But if that woman is there with her dog again I might just go elsewhere.“

“Very good food! Love the atmosphere! The waitress ashley was very nice. I highly recommend the green zebra cafe“

“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“
