20 Best Cafes near Holmes Beach

“I have some food restrictions (dairy and gluten) and was so happy to see that Cheesecake Cutie had options for me! Their chicken salad is incredible on their gluten free bread, which is so soft and so good! They have vegan cheesecake, and it’s so yummy! Really good service and locally owned which we loved! Definitely a go-to spot for me when I’m on AMI!“

“Absolutely sensational! We recently had the pleasure of dining multiple times at this delightful gem on island, and we are beyond impressed. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with the warmest of welcomes and treated to an evening of deliciousness. The mushroom galette was an absolute revelation, a perfect harmony of buttery, flaky crust and earthy, rich mushrooms. And the blueberry goat cheese appetizer? Simply divine. The tangy goat cheese paired with the sweet burst of rosemary blueberries was a flavor combination I never knew I needed in my life until now. It is evident that the owners and staff’s expertise and passion extend far beyond the kitchen as the wine, beer and coffee suggestions were perfect. Speaking of the staff, we must commend Luke and Chef Taylor for their incredible service. Luke’s attentiveness and knowledge of the menu made us feel right at home, and we craved Chef Taylor’s creations all week long. Their genuine passion for what they do shone through in every aspect of our meal, creating an atmosphere that was as inviting as it was impressive. After one week, we consider ourselves regulars.“

“Looking for a big and delicious breakfast place on AMI? You've come to right place! Bring cash and your appetite because you'll need both here. Our fast and friendly server recommend their Breakfast Quesadilla special for me, and it did NOT disappoint! Packed with scrambled eggs, cheese, sausage, peppers and onions, it was all I could handle but handle it I did. My wife had one of their famous fluffy (and massive) omlettes with crispy hash browns and wheat toast. It looked like a mountain of awesomeness, and she confirmed as much! We were fortunate that there was no line to today, but it would have been easily worth a 30-60 minute wait. Highly recommend this AMI gem!“

“What a nice find! Food, live music, inexpensive souvenir/gift shop, playground, volleyball nets, with a beautiful beach as the background! I was just going to turn in the parking lot to turn around. But I heard music and saw a sign for ice cream so in we went. It was early afternoon, nice casual patio crowd with people dancing. Only had ice creams but the food looked like non fussy American fare. Staff was very visible and friendly. Will definitely be back! (And they have pancakes)“

“Super cute. Great service, and delicious baked goods.“

“We love this place ! Best breakfast and Cinn. Rolls around ! Please Please bring back the Sloppy Joes you once had . They are on the on line menu and the cashier stated many people have asked for them to be brought back .“

“The experience at Lava Nutrition was truly exceptional, encompassing every aspect of the store. Amber's amiable demeanor and her guidance in explaining the various beverages and smoothies greatly aided me in making an informed choice. The protein shakes she offers are akin to a heavenly delight for the taste buds. I wholeheartedly recommend giving Lava Nutrition a try!“

“Finally! Man, I haven't had a decent slice since Brancatos Closed! Thanks for giving me hope in good pizza near me again!“

“Came in to get some snacks and drinks for myself and the children. Great staff and warm reception! (It’s a mom and pop shop) - great menu options, and the food came out very fast. Loved the feeling of the cafe, and the owners are very kind and courteous. Highly recommend!*Update - after picking up wifey from haircut, we stopped by for dinner and grabbed “The Basic” sandwich with turkey, and a cheese flatbread for the kids. Great decision! Sandwich was a hit (huge portion) and the pizza was tasty according to three children ??“

“We loved it. Great omelettes“

“I love this place!! All their shakes and items are made to perfection and I’m always greeted with a smile and a friendly worker! The owners are always there working and making sure their customers are satisfied! I have been going here for 4 years and I will continue to go here for my green monkey shake!! Go give them a try you won’t be disappointed!!!! Love ya guys!!!“

“Best burgers in the world. Indisputable truth.“

“We love this place!…the food and ambience are fantastic!, plus the service is first rate!…In fact we had the same server we had last May when we were here on vacation and she remembered us!, now that we will be living down here, definitely will be eating there a lot more!…If you want great home cooked food, with Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten Free options, this is the place to go!!!“

“Adjacent to Popis Place you find locally owned Java N Jive. This place has a family friendly vibe -- not The Ritz. Came here to work while my car is being serviced at Steve White Auto. Friendly staff, clean facility and wifi. I had the egg sandwich and coffee.“

“I love this sweet little place, and my nephews do too. The owner and staff is so kind, and the ice cream is rich & incredible. We got a sugar cone with cookies & cream and cake cones with rainbow respectively. It's a great spot to get some AC and old-fashioned, not price-gauging ice cream!! There's a nice drink fridge too. Highly recommend!It's right next door to Orange Blossom Cafe if you're looking to grab coffee & ice cream all at once! One of the best little corners in Bradenton.“

“Very friendly wait staff, good food at the right price. A place where locals and visitors are all welcome. I had a big ole burger, side of fries and unsweet fresh ice tea…yummy.“

“Yummy food, cozy atmosphere. Great service!“

“Great variety of good food and nice atmosphere ♥️“

“So glad we didn't skip this restaurants based off the reviews. Not sure if they were having a bad day in the past but thankfully that wasn't our experience. We got to watch the sunset on the beach and nibble on some great appetizers. The calamari, hummus and coconut shrimp was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be going back soon.“

“Love this place and coffee always BUT ?wish they didn’t make the açaí and dragonfruit bowls so icy. I would rather it be half the size and creamy vs the taste of a freezer dried popsicle blended. They do a great job with service and the staff is so kind. Overall, the atmosphere is great and my family comes over the years always to get coffee and various breakfast items or sandwiches.“
