A fantastic local spot! Came in just before close and they were still able to take our order as a togo. The patio in front is very nice as well. Drinks are fresh and unique. This is not just your coffee and tea cafe. Get the immune booster with cayenne pepper, it is FANTASTIC. The presto chicken sandwich was fantastic as well. Perfect lunch. Impressed with how well the gentlemen behind the counter dealt with several Karen’s and there boomer behavior.

At the cashier inside, there are multiple signs indicating the degree to which Green Zebra is understaffed, thus asking for the patience on part of the customers. It's your classic demand-supply imbalance during the pandemic. I can certainly understand why the demand remains strong. The employees--while busy--are knowledgeable and helpful when addressing questions or customizing aspects of the menu offering. And the food itself is delectable. We enjoyed a modified version of the GZ scramble (replacing feta cheese for avocado) as well as a mushroom egg wrap. There are several other options

Love this sweet little cafe! I visited for the first time today and we ordered two acai bowls, a Lido smoothie, and the French toast for my daughters. Everyone loved their dish! The acai bowl was the perfect size for a filling lunch with fresh fruit and gluten free granola on top. The cafe staff was making chia pudding while we were there, and I would have loved to buy some but will try again soon (maybe tomorrow!). I love healthy food places like this and am so happy to have found it.

This place was amazing! The smoothies were great, and the Santa Monica breakfast burrito tasted incredible! Everything was moderately priced. They even have complimentary water so if you don't want a smoothie, you can just grab some free water! Highly recommend anyone in the area to check this place out!
P.S. Peanut butter madness smoothie. TO DIE FOR!!!

I am so glad to be out exploring the Sarasota area, as we came across this fantastic place while roaming around the downtown are this past weekend. What a find!
Small, casual, local, family-owned cafe that is vegan- and gf-friendly, while also serving meat for those who are not, plus they have smoothies, fresh juices, raw meals and even serve up raw desserts too, which I'm 100% going back for!
My husband and I sat inside (very small, limited seating) because their 4 tables out on the side walk were in use. You can tell that this place has a lot of regulars, so it must be good, right?

Tried this place for the 1st time a few days ago! It was pretty good, but a tad on the expensive side. We split the Rainbow Kale Salad ($14) and enjoyed our Awesome Avocado ($9) and Açaí Energy ($9) smoothies. Pretty decent portions and a large selection of healthy foods! Only 2 employees were working, but they got everything out fast and were very friendly. We sat outside and it was lovely! Great location.

One of our favorites in St. Armands but there is a location downtown Sarasota also. We enjoy walking over the Ringling bridge and to this location. It's a nice small location outside the busy circle of St. Armands on the circle exit back to the bridge. Today I had the grilled portabella with red pepper, goat cheese and onion- tomato. It's called the Bella and it is amazing. There were a few people not wearing masks entering the restaurant when clearly there is a sign saying masks mandatory. To be honest we almost left as I didn't hear an employee tell them to put a mask on. I would

Love this place! Everything about it is just great! I got the sweet potato toast as somebody I met in Sarasota that morning recommended it. I’m glad I listened! At first I wasn’t sure I’d gotten enough food, but this dish will fill you up. Seems like an odd arrangement of food, however it worked very well and I enjoyed it all. Also I got the acai smoothie, which too was phenomenal!!
Best place to park is around back if you can’t find a parallel spot on the road.

Green Zebra is my favorite place in Sarasota! Really! I became from vegetarian to vegan and I still have so many healthy interesting options to eat .. I mean almost all of them! Everything is so tasty and fresh ... delicious! They have all kinds of food and more: breakfast, lunch, sandwiches, wraps, deserts, smoothies, juices and even energetic shots!! I'm so surprised not all the people here know about this place so far! Highly recommend for everyone who loves to eat healthy, tasty and good looking fresh food!
