Canopy Road Café Announces New Restaurant Opening in Mandarin

Opening marks the Tallahassee-based restaurant brand’s third location in Northeast Florida

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. –– November 25, 2024 –– Canopy Road Café, a Tallahassee-based modern diner concept, announced today the opening of its third Northeast Florida location. The restaurant, now open for business, will hold its grand opening on Tuesday, November 26, 2024. 

 

The new restaurant, located at 10560 Old St. Augustine Road, boasts over 1,800 square feet of dining space with seating for 70 guests. The restaurant marks its first in Northeast Florida to include outdoor seating spanning over 200 square feet. Operating hours are Monday through Sunday from 6:30 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. 

 

Canopy Road Café opened its first location in Jacksonville in February 2019, with a second shortly following in early 2021. The new location will offer all the menu staples that Canopy Road Café is known for, with the addition of mimosa service, with hopes to expand to beer and wine in the coming months. 

 

“This year has been an incredibly exciting year for us. Striving to provide family-feel service is always our goal – we want to make our guests feel as though they’re walking into their Grandma’s house!” said Nick and Zach Presti, Local Brothers and Co-Owners of Canopy Road Café. “We hope to continue expanding our footprint in Northeast Florida with Canopy Road Café and further enhancing our mission in delivering delicious food, affordable prices and fast, courteous service. The new restaurant opening in Mandarin is sure to become another beloved one to the community.”

 

Earlier this year, entrepreneurs Nick and Zach Presti opened EggBoy in Atlantic Beach, a new fast-casual breakfast restaurant concept and sister company to Tallahassee-based Canopy Road Café, in partnership with Canopy Road Café CEO and Co-Founder Brad Buckenheimer.

 

“Similar to Nick and Zach, I believe that this has been an exceptional year for us with not only the opening of a third Canopy Road Café location in Northeast Florida, but with EggBoy as well,” said Brad Buckenheimer, Canopy Road Café CEO and Co-Founder. “I consider them family, and it’s an honor to be continuing down this road of partnering to bring unmatched service and food to Jacksonville. We can’t wait for the community to experience the new offerings and features of this location in particular.”
