Best Restaurants At St. Augustine Beach
1. Mango Mango's - Bar & Grill
This beachy bar & grill is located only a block from the beach. It is a Caribbean and American style restaurant that is fairly small. Mango Mango's is casual dining and perfect for grabbing a bite to eat either on the way to the beach or on your way back.
It is located in center of A1A beach, which is an extremely popular street that runs directly along St. Augustine Beach.
A few fan favorites from their tropical inspired menu include Mango's Coconut Shrimp, Teriyaki Chicken Kabobs, and Tropical Wings. Mango Mango's has something for everyone such as sandwiches, burgers, tacos, salads, and much more.
2. Beachside Diner
This retro themed diner is a fairly new addition to St. Augustine Beach. Beachside Diner is exactly how it sounds, a fun, old fashion diner that takes you back in time. This is a perfect spot to grab a burger & milkshake after a long day on the beach or something lighter such as a soup & salad.
Beachside Diner's hours are from 7AM to 3PM everyday, therefore they only serve breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Personally, I feel that Beachside Diner offers the best breakfast to be found at St. Augustine Beach.
3. Salt Life Food Shack
Salt Life is by far the most popular restaurant along St. Augustine Beach, while it does not sit on the beachside of the street it is still a very short walk across the road to the St. Augustine Pier. Salt Life offers outdoor and indoor dining.
As soon as you enter the restaurant, you will see a massive fish tank to your left. Fun Fact: This fish tank was made by the team on the show "tanked" from Animal Planet.
Salt Life's menu is well rounded and has a variety of options such as seafood, sandwiches, burgers, salads, tacos, bowls, sushi, and more. In addition to the tasty food, the atmosphere at Salt Life is lively and fairly casual. Enjoy a drink at the bar, while listening to live music at any time after 6:00 p.m.
4. Sunset Grille
Just like Salt Life, this restaurant does not sit on the oceanside. However, it is directly across the street from the ocean. Sunset Grille provides inside and outside dining on the second floor. This is a great spot for lunch or dinner, where you can also enjoy the nice ocean breeze on the top floor outside.
This is mainly a seafood restaurant, but there are other options for anyone who is not a fan of seafood.
Sunset Grille's atmosphere is laid back with a tropical vibe. This casual dining experience is a great way to end a long beach day with a delicious meal and drinks in the relaxing beach town of St. Augustine.
