Premium services offered by the professionals at Auggie Eats
Running a successful restaurant in St. Augustine, Florida comes with unique challenges — seasonality, tourism swings, local competition, staffing realities, and ever-changing guest expectations. At Auggie Eats, our restaurant consulting services are built specifically for independent, locally owned restaurants operating in this market.
We don’t offer cookie-cutter advice. We provide practical, real-world guidance tailored to how restaurants actually operate in St. Johns County and the surrounding area.
St. Augustine is not a one-size-fits-all restaurant town. What works downtown may not work on the island, near the beaches, or west of I-95. Our consulting approach starts with understanding your exact location, concept, and customer base.
We help restaurants navigate:
Seasonal traffic fluctuations and tourism cycles
Pricing strategies for locals vs. visitors
Visibility in a crowded, highly competitive dining market
Online reputation and local word-of-mouth influence
Off-peak traffic and weekday seat-filling strategies
Our consulting services are focused on improving performance without overcomplicating your business. Whether you’re launching, stabilizing, or trying to grow, we meet you where you are.
Consulting areas include:
Menu strategy and pricing optimization
Online presence and guest conversion strategy
Website, reservations, and online ordering flow
Local promotions and off-peak traffic planning
Digital marketing guidance (without long-term ad contracts)
Process improvements that save time and reduce friction
We focus on clarity, efficiency, and measurable improvements — not theory.
Most St. Augustine restaurants don’t need a national consultant with a thick binder — they need a trusted partner who understands the pace and pressure of daily service in a tourist-driven market.
Our consulting style is:
Practical and straightforward
Data-informed but experience-driven
Flexible to your schedule and operational reality
Focused on results you can actually implement
We work directly with owners, operators, and managers to identify opportunities and build realistic next steps.
Auggie Eats was built around supporting local restaurants and strengthening the local dining ecosystem. We stay connected to what’s happening in the St. Augustine food scene — from shifts in traffic patterns to changing diner behavior.
Our goal is simple: help local restaurants compete smarter, operate stronger, and stay profitable in a market that never stands still.
No obligation. Local insights. Real recommendations tailored to your restaurant.
