Green Zebra Cafe
476 John Ringling Blvd, Sarasota, FL
Crema's Take
“Tucked into the St. Armands shopping district, this tiny cafe wins locals over with thoughtfully crafted smoothies, fresh-pressed juices, and flavored coffee drinks that taste as good as they look—the acai smoothie and ginger fresh juice are standouts. Beyond the beverages, they excel at allergy-friendly options with most menu items naturally gluten-free or easily customizable, plus an impressive breakfast and lunch spread featuring gems like their celebrated chicken pesto sandwich and creative sides like sweet potato fries. The laid-back vibe, cool orchid decor, and commitment to quality ingredients make it the kind of neighborhood spot where both coffee lovers and health-conscious eaters happily linger.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Tiny little cute cafe, with delectable, healthy options and treats. The acai smoothie was a 10/10. I also enjoyed the ginger fresh juice, and the chicken pesto sandwich (GET THIS!!). Thank you!
Laid back cafe with cool orchid decor. This is a favorite of locals and they have great breakfasts and smoothies. Close to all the shopping on St. Armand’s. Great pastries and flavored coffees.
