# South St. Pete, Patio to Beach

St. Petersburg · 2–3 hours · morning

Two outdoor cafes at opposite ends of South St. Pete, joined by a short drive of about 5km. Start at a quirky patio cafe on 6th Street South that opens at 6am, then head to a beach cafe under a banyan tree at the foot of the Skyway. Both are better outside, and both shut early afternoon. Open every day.

## The route

- [1. Southside Coffee Brew Bar](https://thesteep.app/cities/st-petersburg/southside-coffee-brew-bar-st-petersburg)Southside

Start here, before it shuts at 1pm (2pm on Sunday). A small quirky cafe with a couple of stools inside and a patio that does the real work. Order the latte, which has brown sugar notes, and the scone. Prices are reasonable, and it is not a place to work. The next stop is about 5km away, so plan a short drive.

- [2. Paradeco Coffee Roasters SkyBeach](https://thesteep.app/cities/st-petersburg/paradeco-coffee-roasters-skybeach)Skyway Marina District

Most of the seats are outside, facing the beach, under a banyan tree. Order the chocolate muffin, which is incredibly moist, and take it to a seat outside. The Peru latte was under-extracted and watered down on our visit, so the coffee is not the reason to come. Open 7am to 3pm.
