Sandwiches with a View: What’s Inside Sandos Beachside
Sandos Café (Downstairs)
Hours: 7:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m., Wednesday–Sunday
Pour-over coffee, beachy bites, and a breakfast sandwich that may reset your morning standards. Beans are sourced from Onyx and the coffee program is serious without the attitude.
Nineteen33 Bar (Rooftop)
Hours: 12:00 p.m.–9:00 p.m.
Cocktails, beer, and wine meet wide-open Gulf breezes. If you’ve been waiting for a signature rooftop drink moment in Destin, consider this your cue.
The Signature Move
“Sandos style” means chips inside the sandwich, a parmesan finish, and a hit of house Sandos Sauce. The sauce is a punchy mustard vinaigrette that brings the crunch and the crave.
The Team
Destin native Shaun Cooper and partner Nic Ascenzo bring beverage-world credentials and local pride to the project. The vibe: global flavor, hometown energy.
