    The food was mediocre.  My wife and best friend had Cuban sandwiches that were little more than ham sandwiches, including mustard.  My flat bread was soggy and the chorizo tasted like it had been frozen for six months.  The sangrias  that used to be sold here used to have local San Sebastian wine.  No longer, which is sad.  We used to go there because they made their sangrias  with good local wine.  Stay away from here.

    I have went to this same location but now with a different name: Taberna del Caballo. The food is horrible and pricey. Seems that all is pre-fabricated (not fresh at all). Such a beautiful location but not good food and servers. Be aware. Maybe it changed owners, but this review is for Taberna del Caballo that now is on this precise location.

    Great atmosphere. Great sangria. Morgan the bartender is awesome!  Playing Kill the Box is classic. All around great time.

    This place is pretty awesome. It gives you that old traveler feeling. Like how it must have felt to be passing through here on your way to find someone or trade goods.
    They sell sangria in bottles with corks and often have some live music outside.
    A definite must-go-to when you're visiting.

    Cool little place, very historical looking.
    The sangria is good, however much is in the glass after the glass if almost filled with ice.  Very much a tourist trap from the point of view that they really try charge as much as they can for as little as they can get away with.
    When we walked in, the old "bar wench" was busy playing some sort of game with the people already there.  She took the drink order fairly soon but never offered us some the bread and cheese she gave the other customers.

    Stopped in here to have a beer. Had Sam Adams cherry wheat very good. The bartender (the  one in the picture with the beard) I am bad with names but I want to say his name was George?? Lol. Anyway very good bartender full of interesting historical information. He gave the history of the bar about a woman who lost her husband and actually lived in the one room tavern where she served spirits as her lively hood. It was pleasant to sit there enjoying a drink and getting a history lesson. Reading the reviews would like to go there at night in candle light. Oh and the bathroom was clean :).

    Drinking a glass of fresh sangria by candlelight in an 1800s bar! A must see.

    Our first visit here, we lucked out in that the bartender had kept it open an extra hour and we squeezed in right at last call.  We ordered our drinks and played Shut the Box for a while before leaving, and spoke for a bit with the bartender. It was dark when we arrived and the whole place was lit entirely by candle light. We immediately fell in love with it and decided to return the next day.

    That's exactly what we did, and this time the bartender in his period clothing was replaced by a different bartender (his mother, it turns out) also in period clothing. Also in attendance was a volunteer, similarly dressed, who found it necessary to blather on for a bit about her completely rumor-based and rather obnoxious political ideology.

    Here's the question: why does this place close at 7pm every day?  I'd imagine there's quite a lot of money to be had after 7pm for a bar.  As we stayed through last call, we saw how many people they turned away just in the short time between last call and when they kicked us out.  What a crazy business decision!

    Great opportunity to step back in time, and grab a mug of some modern beer.  The location is great, and provides an escape from the sensory overload found on the city streets. The candle lit bar provides a great atmosphere unlike any other place that I have been.

    The candle light makes this a great stop on a date night.

    Cool little place!  It's lit by candlelight, so in the chilly winter it's really nice to come in here and get some heat from the little candles on the tables.  There are just a few little tables when you walk inside, plus a bar area, before you enter the outside seating in the back.  The building is made of stone and has the Spanish Colonial style of old St. Augustine, putting you right back into the 18th century!

    If you're hungry at all, be sure to eat elsewhere though, as they literally only have beverages...oh, and they're served by pirates!

    the Taberna Del Gallo could be considered a tourist trap but I really didn't mind that so much.  It's right on St. George street and is only open at night. It's cool in that it is lit solely by candles (except for the bathrooms). It's tacky because it is staffed by pirates. Yes, pirates. At 8 Pm they start singing sea shanties. Just have a few Yuenglings and enjoy.

    Accept your fate and sway to the dulcet tones of singing surfer-pirates. Would you rather be at some crappy bar where they just serve drinks, and have no pirates?

    This place is super cool because everything here from the nails in the door to the candles lighting the place are crafted onsite. The only thing using electricity here was the cash register. The bar tenders are dressed up  in old style clothes. Cool wooden pub games to play while drink

    Love stopping in here 2 -3 times every visit to St. Aug --
    This place is done up as a 1740s Spanish tavern -very well I might add.. all candle light.. no electricty.
    Beer & Sangtias only.. but the Sangrias are fantastic. There is a great little court yard to enjoy in the back, but if you have the chance- spend some time at the bar chatting with the (costumed) bartenders, play a little shut the box and enjoy !
    You can also grab some lunch at the Spanish Bakery across the court and enjoy it in the tavern   : )

    Very cool spot.  Very limited drinks menu and the food choices are 3 flavors of bagged Zapp's chips.  The space in the front is tiny but there is a really nice back courtyard area that is perfect for chilling on a breezy evening.  I had a sangria and it was the best I've ever had.

    This was one of the more unique little taverns in Saint Augustine.  It's part of the Colonial Spanish Quarter Museum.  The staff is dressed in costume  and guests can sit at the wooden bar or sit outside under the trellis surrounded by some replica buildings and some original buildings.  

    It's an adorable little tavern with lovely choices of three different sangrias. each for $5.00:
    Sweet Red
    Smooth White
    Flavorful Rose

    Next to the Colonial Spanish Quarter Museum, this Tavern is a throwback to the 1700's, you will no doubt be entertained by the staff dressed in period clothing as well as the singing group.
    Check it out at night for extra fun and entertainment - 5 stars for historical value.
