I ordered the vanilla iced coffee as per other reviewer‘s recommendations and it’s delicious! The interior is fun and retro and I love that it’s located in a renovated gas station—so unique. Can’t wait to come back and try their breakfast options! :)Edit:We came back to try the biscuits and gravy and it is definitely one of the best I’ve ever had in my life. I think my boyfriend and I came here four times while we were on vacation so I definitely recommend this place, and there’s a great Flan restaurant in the neighborhood as well!

For the Saturday morning i was looking to have a morning coffee and i decided to have coffee and breakfast at King State. The king state is a beautiful cafe with outside seating options which can help people to bring their pets with themselves. The menu has different options for breakfast along with coffee. After browsing through the menu i decided to order Cappuccino coffee with oat milk and granola with oat. I was given my order number and I seated on the table. The service was excellent and I got my order in 10 minutes. The coffee was hot and freshly brewed. Loved my cappuccino. The oat meal was also delicious and amazing. Loved the vibes of the cafe. One can also buy coffee from King state which is the additional advantage. Will be definitely back with my wife for breakfast.

Super cute decor and great vibes. Line was long but went quickly. The food and coffee are delicious. Need to go back!

A brewery also serves breakfast. Have outdoor and indoor seating, both are comfortable. Drinks are good and breakfast items are fresh. A trendy place for the young families or adults.

Fantastic concept with a great environment. Very welcoming place with nice staff. Really nice aesthetic, especially in the evening, and it’s the perfect late-night lounge/coffee shop setting.I really enjoy coming here to study or to have dinner with friends because of the ambience, but the food/drinks can be incredibly disappointing.They try to put their own twist on food and drink options for uniqueness, but the end result is just hit or miss. I would say I only enjoy 35% of the menu offered for lunch/dinner. (I have not had brunch here, but heard it’s great!)I’ve tried the following items:Spiced Mango beer: Okay. Flavor is a bit strange. 6/10The Cig (coffee beverage) - 0/10 Would not recommend.Nachos - Very good! The plate was just too small so it was difficult to get all the layers. Leftovers were great too! 9/10Charcuterie Board - Okay. Cheese selection is okay and combination is good, but not worth the price. Sourdough is amazing though! 7/10Roast beef sandwich - Good 9/10Vegan Garlic knots - Pretty good 8/10Vegan pepperoni pizza - Pretty good 8/10White pizza (pictured) - Not good. Flavor combination was weird, very dry, slightly burned. My friend and I could not finish more than one slice. 0/10My favorite: Iced Latte with oat milk^A safe choice but I actually love it.Overall, if I were rating this place as a late-night coffee shop, I would say 5 stars all the way. But as a restaurant, 2 stars. I would not come here just for the food.Great place to grab a coffee and sandwich, study or catch up with friends, but there’s room for improvement. Hopefully I’ll update this rating to be higher, but for now 3 stars due to the price and food.I will be back though!

What a fun outing with friends today!! The best grits I've ever had in my life!! Great service when we walked into order as well. I had the Turkey salad and a cold brew with the white wine blend on the side. Fantastic! Sat on the patio enjoying the mild Tampa weather today. I'd definitely go back again and check out more of the menu.

And old gas station turned coffee and beer shop. They roast their own coffee beans and brew their beer in St Pete and so they serve both. It’s got a small but good food menu as well. If you moved down from Brooklyn then this will be your favorite spot, but even if you didn’t then you’ll still love it here. The spiced mango sour beer will replace my morning mimosas.

Visited from orlando and wow the vibes are great, coffee is made to perfection, and the food is just a must try. Definitely will come back whenever I’m in town!

My heart is and will always be with King State. I don’t know how….but they make a simple vanilla latte taste heavenly. And their grits are amazing! Creamy and cheesy! And the vibe is just dope! Basically…..everything is great at King State.

THE BEST. Get a signature drink.
