Whiskey Tango Foxtrot

This place is closed. They shut down in 2015. Recommend Maas downtown for quenching your coffee needs.

Real cool local coffee shop. I hear the beans they buy vary, but are usually pretty dank finds on Amazon. You can taste the quality in their espresso drinks and the caffeine buzz is good too. The atmosphere is a+ with a huge rad back porch where you can smoke. Basically the only cool place that serves actual quality roast in town. Maas has nothing on wtf. Boom.

I was so excited to finally find a coffee place on the island. According to Unilocal,they open at 6 am. In reality, they open at 8:00. Big difference but thankfully, I got there at 7:55 so there wasn’t much of a wait. The outside looks terrible and I was hesitant to even go in. Once inside, I felt totally at ease. It’s a very cute place and looks new. They have a variety of drinks and I went with a sugar free hazelnut latte made with almond milk. It was very good. I was ecstatic to see that almond milk and coconut milk were options. The price was a bit high but I will return again while I stay on the island. Next time I’ll take my family and they can try the milkshakes.

Chill spot but not really a coffee shop. I had a similar experience to the others. I asked what they were brewing and they had no idea. But nice people and probably a good place to grab a drink and chat with friends. I’m giving them 4 stars with the hope that they will grow their coffee program. You don’t have to go full geek coffee mode with multiple brewing methods (though I love those types of establishments), but you do need to get your hands on some good beans and prepare them properly.

Great little spot for coffee, snacks, ice cream or beer. The inside is set up very nicely with more of a bar vibe. There is an outside patio where my husband was able to enjoy his cigar. We stopped here at least 3 times while in town for drinks before heading to the beach or lunch. They have a decent selection of bottled beer and the chocolate espresso martini was so good. Service was very friendly on every occasion. Highly recommend!

Coffee, smoothies, ice cream — all good and reasonably priced. Very cool set up inside with games we enjoyed playing as we drank. Good service and a nice walk in the mornings.

I’m a local resident on the island and was ecstatic to see that a coffee shop was opening! Now let me say, I’m not a fan of Starbucks since like most people, once you venture out and see how burnt and gross Starbucks is compared to other brands, you can’t stand to go back and drink it. So Starbucks isn’t even an option for me. Call me a coffee snob, but I know my coffee and how I like it.
Since I’ve moved here, I’ve tried two local options that I love although not on my way to work so decided to give this a try.
When you walk in, it has a more awkward set up compared to other coffee shops. More bar than coffee shop to say the least. I couldn’t tell where the line started or even where to stand with people just all over. I saw a fridge case of pastries with a cinnamon roll, mini muffins and bagels as well as what looked like dessert options. They had a muffin back on the bar and decided to get it.
A guy asked me what I wanted and decided to get what I always get in the morning: an iced coffee with milk and caramel. Pretty simple, hard to mess up, right? Wrong. They only have thick caramel syrup which doesn’t blend well with iced drinks. Filled the cup half way with milk, which if you ask me is more of latte than a coffee. Put a shot of what I assume concentrated coffee in there and loads of ice. It tasted nothing like an iced coffee and the coffee itself from what I could taste was nothing spectacular of a roast. The muffin you ask? Typical Sysco muffin that was dry and I couldn’t even eat half of it.
They also have plenty of liquor options, but for the regular coffee person, not interested especially if the coffee itself isn’t good. They should try to get jittery joe’s brand at least if they want to compete with the two other local coffee roasters. Hopefully they can fix their ways soon and maybe I’ll give them another chance.

If I could do 3 ½ stars I would. The coffee isn’t bad, but its nothing special. If you like starbucks you will like wtf. The main reason they lose some points is that the barista couldn’t tell me a single thing about the coffee they serve. Not the origin, type of roast, nothing. I was actually embarrassed for them. The barista could, however, tell me about their full bar. I will probably come back if I want liquor in my coffee, but a coffee snob like myself has higher standards for my morning cup of joe.

Whisky Tango Foxtrot, or «WTF“as all the roadside advertising on Santa Rosa blvd shows is a locally owned (+1) coffee shop nestled right between Helenback and Asiago’s Skillet on Okaloosa island. The outside has literally no decoration so it’s easy to miss but the inside has a great relaxed and eclectic atmosphere perfect for the area while NOT being jimmy buffet beach barf if you know what I mean. I have been twice once on the way home from work and once on the way there.
Both times the service from either girls who waited on me was friendly and informative about what they offered (bagels, yogurt parfaits, kids juice boxes, muffins etc.) other than the coffee. They also have more milk options, almond for example, if you’re into that kinda stuff.
But why do you come to a coffee shop?
For the coffee of course! I had an iced caramel macchiato first go round and it was tasty not too sweet and strong enough for an afternoon refreshment although my shots came from an already made decanter in the fridge, which is pretty detrimental to the bold espresso flavor I crave so much but I’ll know to ask next time. 2^nd round which was the very next morning I got a large white mocha with an extra shot and it was awesome!!! espresso ground and tampered by hand right before my eyes good quality flavors and again friendly service. I’m not much of a drinker but this place has an almost full bar of liquor, baileys, so they can basically whip up whatever you want here and I think I saw the making for bloody Mary’s while I waited so that’s pretty cool my boyfriend loves them.
Where this place loses a star for me is solely because the board said 4.59 for large white mocha and with the extra shot I paid 7 something after tax… A little much for a cup if you ask me.
