Welcome to the Oldest Shop in Downtown St. Augustine!

Since 1976, Hot Stuff has been a staple not only Downtown, but in the hot sauce community as a whole! Now, we are the oldest hot sauce store in Florida, specializing in the one-of-a-kind St. Augustine native: Datil Peppers!

Paired with a slice of our famous Key Lime Pie, or one of the other staples from our “sweet” side in The Key Lime Shop, you can’t go wrong!

Looking forward to meeting you and sampling a few of our sauces together, or feel free to place an order online and we’ll ship it to you. That way, you can enjoy our local favorites wherever you may find yourself!

Two Shops - One Stop

We’ve go a little of everything, from locally made balsamic vinegars to delicious key lime pies, and the largest variety of hot sauces in town! We even have a number of locally crafted gifts and goods, perfect as a memento of your visit to the Ancient City!

So… What are you craving?
