Café Del Hidalgo- Ice Cream, Food, And Drink

Had the espresso frappe with homemade tiramisu and bacio hazelnut gelatos - delish! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Walked in an hour before closing and was told the manager closes early if the night is slow. I understand that, but then you need to adjust your official hours and just close early instead of saying you close at 10. You can clean up before actually closing, but don't be closed. Disappointed. Probably won't try to come back.

One Tiny scoop of gelato for a Big price in a tiny cup that if flipped over has an indentation underneath that gives you even less gelato. It’s a complete waste of money… there are a lot of other places to get ice cream and gelato… wish we had known. Won’t return to this establishment, sadly.

Unhygienic place, the sandwiches are simple and they give you bagged potatoes like lays or another brand, the coffee is terrible, the salad is horrible. As luck would have it, when I went to the bathroom the lady who was serving my table also went and I saw that she didn't wash her hands, so you're at risk if you decide to go to this place.

A great café tucked away in an amazing location.
I stopped here for a brunch and was not disappointed. Their espresso drinks were exactly what I was looking for, I got a flavored one and the vanilla did not overpower the coffee flavor. Very well balanced.

The pressed sandwiches are perfect for a quick snack before getting back into town. I recommend the rock, but the whole sandwich menue looked good.

Quality of the food is perfect, atmosphere cozy, and its a good place to escape the heat for a small bit. Highly recommend.

Dog friendly! But the service wasn't very attentive. We didn't eat here, just took a rest from the hot sun with the dogs. Seemed like a very standard bar, not too busy, but the tables were all very close together, so I imagine it would get crowded quickly.

I bought cookies and cream gelato and a diet coke. The gelato was inedible.It tasted like frozen ice water. At over $7, I would expect better. The top of the diet coke can was filthy. The lady let me exchange it but every can was dirty. I told her, and she didn't seem to care. Won't be back

We did not enjoy the food at this place. In particular, the Cesar salad was absolutely ridiculous. The menu mentions grilled chicken but they barely add some tiny pieces of dry, boiled one here and there. The rest of the food was mediocre. There are better options around.

Friendly atmosphere and great food! I had their Hidalgo Salad and it was excellent. I also had the pistachio gelato which was very good. It's fun to sample a few flavors before choosing a gelato, there are so many flavors! I definitely recommend stopping here while strolling around St. Augustine!

Loved this cozy setting in the hustle and bustle of St. Augustine. We split a smoothie made of mango and mixed berry. It was overly sugary and had great flavor. We ordered two paninis and they were amazing, a great crisp, and great flavor. The waitresses were fast with our food and friendly. I'm glad we stopped by on a whim. It's a perfect place for lunch!
