Interesting menu. Good coffee. Pleasant place to sit outside and eat. The food was fresh and good quality. They also have gluten free muffins. I will be back.

We try to have breakfast at Fresh Start Cafe every Saturday after the Sarasota Farmers Market. It is always great!!! This past Saturday we had poached eggs with prosciutto, Shakshuka, (similar to the Italian "eggs in Purgatory"), with a still warm fresh peach muffin. Some photos are posted. The owner is always there and very accommodating. One can tell the... More

I ate at Fresh Start Cafe yesterday and ordered an arugula salad with pear and goats cheese. This selection was based on the arugula, as I so enjoy it.

Great breakfast choices, fresh food prepared perfectly, great service and we get to eat outside...what more can I say other than that I would, and will, come back again.

This place was a great place to sit outside and enjoy a great breakfast. Staff was super friendly and attentive, great with our little kid and kept him busy with crayons and little toys. The food was great, a lot of home cooked goodies and fresh fruit. Coffee was also great. Overall, great cafe for breakfast.

This charming little restaurant is only open for breakfast and lunch. There are some very unique items on the menu such as roasted eggplant, goat cheese and olive tapanade sandwich (my favorite).

Me and my family of five love this place. The selections available are healthy and delicious. The service is awesome and the experience is always great. Not to mention, they have the playschool plastic chairs and table for the kids with coloring books and play-doh!
