50 Best Cafes near Bay Harbor Islands

“This place is a hidden gem. The pastries are fresh, and authentic. Not like the commercial processed items you would find at a Starbucks. I ordered a colada which cost me less than a small cup of coffee at Starbucks but gives you the boost you are looking for in a pick me up, and the staff was so friendly. The only issue for me is that I wish it was easier to access because of traffic patterns but well worth the trouble.“

“Delicious food, excellent coffee and a welcoming atmosphere.“

“Juan was amazing. Thank you so much for great service“

“great food, good drinks, and good people. Amazing musicians for entertainment. This place is a whole vibe. check it out.“

“I give him a five star review the food is excellent The Waitresses is very much on time and the waiter was excellent in the food is delicious I recommend this place very much“

“The quality of food is high, for that I recommend it. The reason I wouldn’t go back is that the staff just did not care we were there at all. Still waiting for them to ask how everything is… we came through last year and had a totally different experience staff was super friendly and engaged even though the place was packed. We caught them at turnover and they couldn’t care less. We talked about hitting craft as a high point for our one night in Miami before cruising… and now we won’t bother going back to Bayside.“

“Foie-gras was top notch along with the Guinea fowl and the service was A-1, we will be back. Highly Recommend“

“Just wanted to take a little time to talk about how amazing this place is. Their food is spectacular their pastries are made fresh they have all sorts of different foods if you're in the mood for something hearty or something light they have it all. Their customer service is excellent and they are near the mall. I always come here when I come to Miami because it has great vibes and good food. Especially for a coffee on the way back home.“

“Muy recomendado.. excelente ambiente, comida y amplio menu.“

“My husband found this little gem and we went for brunch on our first day in Coral Gables. We struck gold! Not only was our server, Monica, a treat but so was the food. We went with two of her recommendations. The il piu italiano avo toast and mega mushroom omelette…so good!! I went back the next morning because I really wanted to try the don’t be a (lemon) tart French toast…another hit. And my server, Rashad, was another gem! I enjoyed the food, atmosphere and workers at Threefold, and would highly recommend you check this place out.“

“Ordered off of Uber Eats- the food was fantastic.

I had originally ordered a pistachio croissant but I guess they were out. I got a pistachio muffin with a note saying sorry.

It was delicious, no worries guys. Was my first time trying this place, I look forward to ordering in the future!“

“Very delicious. The food was amazing. Very special“

“Absolutely worth the hype. We stopped by on a Friday morning, and even though the place was packed, we waited less than five minutes for a table. You can tell this is one of those spots people make a point to visit.

We had the avocado toast, the lox on a sesame bagel, a cappuccino, and a black coffee, and every single item was outstanding. The quality of the bread alone is enough to keep us coming back! The bread is
freshly made in-house, with incredible texture and flavor. You can really taste the difference when the ingredients are fresh and locally sourced from Florida.

Our server, Wesley, was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. My only regret is that we were only in Miami for a short stay because there were so many other things on the menu I wanted to try. This is definitely a place we’ll be returning to the next time we’re in town. 100/10.“

“We had the pleasure of meeting the owner while in Miami for a very quick visit with my son and his partner. This place is so cute and clean, and the sandwiches and coffee are absolutely amazing! I’m in LOVE with the Hot Honey Cubano! Will definitely visit on our next trip to Miami when we have more time to linger and relax in the deliciousness and atmosphere!“

“This was my first time visiting Rose Cafe & Restaurant, which recently expanded and rebranded with a full bar and dinner service, officially opening the new concept in October 2025. The space is absolutely beautiful ~ roses everywhere, elegant decor, and very Instagrammable from the moment you walk in. One thing that stood out, however, was a very strong scent sprayed in the hallway upon entry. My friend, who is sensitive to strong smells, felt sick afterward. It didn’t linger heavily at the table, but for anyone sensitive to fragrance, this could definitely be an issue. As for the food, our Eggs Benedict initially came out overcooked, but our server Jonathan A. handled it perfectly. He immediately took it back, asked the chef to remake it, and the second round was spot on. Great recovery and attentive service on his part. I ordered a hazelnut cappuccino, not realizing that cinnamon lettering would be added on top. I personally don’t tolerate cinnamon, so I removed the foam and didn’t say anything, but this might be something for management to consider ~ asking guests beforehand would be appreciated. Overall, the service was good, valet is offered upon arrival, and the ambiance is lovely. While it didn’t completely blow my mind, it’s still a beautiful spot with solid service. All things considered, I’d honestly give it 4 stars and would return, especially for the atmosphere.“

“Great service! Clemente was great!“

“Great variety of healthy foods, freshly made, tasted delicious and staff were so warm, welcoming and accomodating. Highly recommend!“

“WOW!!!

This place is an absolute gem.

We shared several dishes and every single one was better than the last. The cigars, arayes, challah schnitzel sandwich, shawarma on laffa, and the knafeh were all phenomenal.

As Israelis, we know Mediterranean food, and this was simply outstanding. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and made with care.

The entire experience was amazing from start to finish.

I also want to give a special shout-out to Ryan, our server. Ryan was absolutely incredible. You can genuinely tell that he loves what he does and takes pride in where he works. Every recommendation he gave us was a perfect choice. He checked on us throughout the meal, always made sure our drinks were full, kept us smiling and laughing, and treated us with exceptional kindness and professionalism.

Ryan was a huge part of what made this experience so memorable. Employees like him are hard to find, and he deserves recognition for the outstanding job he does. He represents your restaurant in the best possible way.

Thank you for such a memorable evening. We will definitely be back and will be recommending Motek to everyone we know.

“Es un lugar de música electrónica muy especial“

“Met a friend at Novela Cafe Social to catch up and it was the perfect spot. We had a cappuccino, a matcha latte, and a breakfast focaccia— all fresh, well made, and really enjoyable.

Staff were friendly, specially the lady that runs the food to the tables.

Relaxed, clean Wynwood vibe that makes you want to stay and chat. Great coffee, good food, and an easy place to spend time with friends.“

“Buenísimo el mejor de Miami“

“Had a lovely brunch at Cafe Bastille! We ordered a chai latte, americano, avocado toast with bacon and the blueberry pancakes. Both dishes were absolutely devine! Our waitress Daniela was outstanding! Very friendly, very fast and nice serving.“

“If you’re looking for an “Aussie Style” coffee hit and breakfasts like you would find at Bondi Beach with lots of healthy and some naughty options. A great haven from the heat in Miami. All day breakfast and to go options. The eggs with roasted veggies will fuel you for the day. Tommy, Sol, Julian and the crew lead by Tony will ensure you’re well feed and looked after.“

“Tropical Cafe is a hidden gem in North Miami Beach! This locally owned restaurant serves amazing Latin food with generous portions. Everything was fresh, delicious, and made with care. The service was friendly, and the welcoming atmosphere made the experience even better. If you're looking for a great meal and want to support a local business, I highly recommend Tropical Cafe!“

“Buena comida , excelente servicio brindado por Daliana .“

“I love this place! The location is super chill, the menu offers healthy alternatives, the coffee is great and the staff is super friendly. Officially my favorite coffee shop! ❤“

“Just a quick stop for a coffee(latte with oat milk) and grabbed a cookie. Space is beautifully decorated and ambiance is just what you'd expect from a spot on Miracle Mile. Can't judge the food but it looked appealing from the dishes I saw around me. Gotta come back for a taste of the real menu.“

“Absolutely love this place, my go-to for coffee and panini. I’m going there for at least a year and can notice how they constantly improve little things making everything better. Absolutely love their tuna panini - it’s out of this world. Stuff is always very nice and thoughtful. Also it’s hard for me to find this good coffee in the area so definitely recommend them. Very authentic and totally worth the money“

“Really good food and great staff!“

“I Ike this place , food is great , pastry’s and good but the servers at the Aventura are vey mean and not polite not the first time we see this , Managers should train them to better serve the public , of the are having a bad day better stay home We are the ones paying for food and service to have great food and enjoy the place .“

“Tasty food, light and carefully prepared. Polite and efficient service. Had a couple of fish options, ingredients were fresh and of valuable quality. I am considered quite picky for fish especially. Vegetables also fresh and well served. Well proportioned size of dishes. Spotless clean environment.“

“Buena comida , excelente servicio brindado por Daliana .“

“First time I've had ACTUAL Cuban coffee since being in Havana. All the staff was great and easily corrected a minor problem. We could've gone to Bayside but walked here instead. I'll be back when we get off the boat for another coffee before returning home.“

“This place is a gem! The food is cozy and homey and most importantly, just delicious 😋 They do a terrific job with everything, so it's hard to decide. That's why I tend to go with the iconic Bandeja Paisa. It's massive, so even when I share it, I end up full and happy. The service is consistently warm and friendly and it's genuine. I wish the dining area were larger, but maybe then it would lose some of its homey charm. Best of all it's extremely affordable!“

“Love this place. Great soup and the Impossible empanadas are THE best. I go out of my way to get them!“

“⭐ 5 stars ⭐
My experience at Las Delicias Bakery was amazing! The food is simply delicious, full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff who really make sure you feel at home. In addition, the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing, ideal for enjoying a good breakfast or lunch.

I recommend this place to all lovers of good food and excellent service. I will definitely be back soon!“

“Everything is excellent including the service. The espresso, lattes, fruit bowls, açaí bowls, French toast, etc. Daily ritual when in Hollywood Beach.“

“Best espresso ever !Chocante Mocha fantastic !“

“The place is beautiful, and all the books and sections, very nice!
The food delicious too; but the service is terrible. Attendants are kind but it seems they do not have experience at all. I was unattended for over 2hrs. I would have like to stay longer if service was acceptable.“

“The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was wonderfully delicious with a great mixture of tastes and textures.“

“Great tea & coffee; beaut brekkie with nice staff.“

“Ian is the greatest server of all time. He just told me that it was his second day and I’m in utter shock due to the experience and upmost hospitality that he’s provided me and my friends tonight. Amazing he deserves a raise he should be the manager of this place as the true future in this guy. Hope anyone reading this has a great night.“

“Maravilloso sitio y sobretodo la atención brindada al público es maravillosa, conozco el lugar de Madrid, pero cuando fui al de Miami quede encantada, me sentí en Madrid.“

“Great variety of healthy foods, freshly made, tasted delicious and staff were so warm, welcoming and accomodating. Highly recommend!“

“The pastries here are absolutely delicious! Perfectly flaky, fresh, and full of flavor. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite. The guava and cheese pastry is my favorite—it’s sweet, buttery, and melts in your mouth. Great service from Barbara and rest of the stuff very welcoming atmosphere. Definitely a must-visit if you love Cuban pastries!“

“It's always a Yessss for me at Yes Cafe!! The breakfast menu is so tasty and mouth watering! The ambience gives chic, but tranquil and cozy vibes so it's also a great place to bring your laptop while soaking up the good vibrations.“

“was very impressed with the bagels..will definitely try them again“

“A True Hidden Gem. Best quiet little spot in Hollywood to get breakfast and lunch until 3pm. Very reasonable prices and decent portions. They have daily specials and good coffee. Everyone that works there is super friendly. I've been coming since I was a kid and now I bring my kids to eat here.“
