GREEN ZEBRA CAFE – American
A family-run Sarasota cafe with two addresses - Main Street downtown and St. Armands Circle - and a menu that leans hard into the morning. Expect fresh-squeezed juice, acai bowls, avocado toast, omelets and pancakes you assemble by flavour, alongside salads, sandwiches, and vegan and gluten-free options built into the menu rather than tacked onto it. Dinner brings weightier plates such as short ribs. Regulars come back for the portion sizes, the calm rooms and the attentive service. Green in name, generous in practice.
