About Us

History

The original Kookaburra opened its doors in 2012 at Cathedral Place in downtown St. Augustine. The concept was born out of family and community experiences and a desire to meld the best coffee and baked goods imaginable with world class service. The 420 square foot shop quickly became a community hub, and allowed the expansion into our larger US 1 and SR 312 shop in 2014. The efforts of our incredible staff and the support of our loyal customers made possible the opening of our third location at St. Augustine Beach, followed by The Kookaburra Roastery and our largest location south near Dondanville Road and A1A. In late 2020 we moved our roasting facility and opened a fifth location on SR 207 and opened our sixth shop in the Nocatee Town Center. In 2024 we expanded out of Northeast Florida with our seventh shop in Alachua. What we are today is the direct result of the wonderful people who have been involved in our development as employees, patrons, friends and family. We are truly a product of our environment, and we couldn’t be more proud.
