10/10! If you’re passing by Ponce, don’t hesitate to stop in and get some food. The smash burger was out of this world as well as the Cajun fries and the coffee. My wife had a ham and cheese croissant and said it was delicious as well. Very nice owner who goes above and beyond with service and quality of items. They sell locally sourced honeys, olive oils, milk and a bunch of other items. Also try the smoked tuna dip and/or the tuna melt! Will be back next time we’re in the area!

This place is a hidden gem!! Delightful surprise for coffee/breakfast on way to Mississippi for hunting trip. 5 minutes off I10… NO COMPARISON to any Big Name chain, this place is surely worth your while- you will not be disappointed!! Sausage egg cheese biscuit was amazing! Can’t wait to try their sodas from Pensacola!
True mom & pop, handcrafted items from local community, premium quality ingredients… absolutely delicious!! Milk from local creamery, organic beans for espresso, high quality syrups… all these ingredients meld together creating an exceptional latte. BEST vanilla latte I’ve ever tasted!!! As a small business barista myself, I have high standards when it comes to trying out local coffee shops. Definitely in my Top 5 across the board!!
Owner was incredibly kind & truly passionate about what he offers to customers- you can see it in his eyes & smile. Stay the course y’all!

Panhandle Cafe served the best burger I’ve had in many years, in many cities. Hell, it just might be the best one, period.
Also had the loaded fries with pork, they were out of this world. I reheated the other half in the air fryer when I got home and good lord they were good at 10:00 last night.
RILEY was working the front of house, she provided excellent recommendations like her personal favorite (loaded fries with pork) and what she hears as feedback from patrons of their favorite items, which I REALLY appreciated. It’s uncommon and helpful to hear both. She mentioned that she was pretty new, but you could tell she was happy, kind, quick, and killing it for FoH. Don’t let me find out y’all aren’t paying her well!!!!
Can’t wait to see y’all again. Happy to see Big Jerk Soda there too, they’re great people close to us who make a tasty beverage.
Best,
Sam

We found this place because of its proximity to the Ponce De Leon springs and it was worth it! I had the smoked chicken salad croissant and my husband had the cheese burger with the gourmet sauce (they offer lettuce, tomato and onion with the cheeseburger but he is not a fan). We got both regular and the Cajun fries. It was delicious and one of the best places we have eaten since arriving in the panhandle!

We had a great lunch experience here! The restaurant was spotless, and the staff was incredibly patient as we ordered our coffee – we’re a bit picky and like to make substitutions. The coffee was fantastic, and our burgers were cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious.

We stopped quick on the way back to Des Moines, IA. We left PCB and I was a little irritated my boyfriend didn’t stop quick as we left the condo. My phone wasn’t pulling up any coffee close, then my service went out. When it came back up the only place right in our part was Panhandle Cafe & Market. I said, “I don’t even care at this point I just need a coffee”. So we pull in to this little treasure. Smoker going in the back; so you know they’re doing the dang thing today. 10/10 coffee & great conversation with the owner. He’s doing great things in this little diamond in the rough. Will definitely be making it a point to come through this way anytime we drive down to the coast. Thanks for the quick service with great espresso! Also gave us a complimentary tuna dip for lunch on the road. God brought us here for a reason. ♥️

We stumbled upon this hidden gem on our way home from Panama Beach. Don’t let the look of the building discourage you from eating here. The quality of food and service is amazing. We ordered 2 breakfast plates. The scrambled eggs were fluffy, homemade sausage patties, and fresh cut hashbrowns were a pleasant surprise. They have a great selection of craft bottle soda, which I took togo, and root beer, fresh ground coffee, and cappuccino. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be returning on our next trip to the beach. A+++ 10 star.
Thank you for the great food.
