Craft Kafe Downtown
200 Central Ave, St. Petersburg, FL
Crema's Take
“If you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, this is one of the few coffee shops where you can actually relax and order freely from a full menu without interrogating the staff about cross-contamination. The sprawling patio is genuinely set up for lingering with proper table service, and the cinnamon rolls and breakfast sandwiches rival dedicated bakeries. Service-minded staff like Zevon have clearly been trained to treat accessibility as a priority rather than an afterthought, which shows in their near-perfect ratings.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Grateful for so many phenomenal GF options! I enjoyed the best cinnamon roll in years at Craft. I also ordered a breakfast sandwich — very good. My iced latte was also great, so glad they have oat milk, too!
Love this place! Both locations are terrific but this one has much more seating. The huge patio area is not just a place to cop-a-squat. There is full service so don't forget to take care of your patio staff! Today was our first time at this location so we both wanted to try…
We stopped here three times on our short trip because we loved it so much! We tried almost everything and were never disappointed. The staff was super friendly and everything was delicious! As someone who is gluten free it was a delight to be able to choose from everything and…
