23 Best Cafes in Coral Gables

“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.“

“An excellent experience at Maman! The coffee, food, atmosphere, and especially the service were second to none!

Thank you! I’ll definitely be back whenever I can!

Sebastian, the manager, was very friendly and told us they’ll be launching a new menu next week!

I’ll definitely be there to try it!

Thank you so much!“

“Breakfast and lunch. The food was delicious, the ambience was cozy and service excellent. My party of 3 all agreed the music was too loud. We asked for it to be lowered a bit and they complied. A happy customer always returns. Looking forward to the next brunch.“

“​Books & Books in Coral Gables is an exceptional community anchor that proves independent bookstores are not just surviving—they are thriving. In an era dominated by e-books and quick digital media, finding a fully stocked bookstore with thousands of titles seamlessly integrated with a coffeehouse, full-service bar, restaurant, and live music is rare and refreshing.

​I ordered the Blackened Chicken Caesar salad, and it was outstanding: crisp romaine, generous house-made croutons, shaved parmesan, and a vibrant, light lemon vinaigrette dressing. It was fresh, healthy, filling, and served promptly by attentive staff.

​The courtyard atmosphere is eclectic, intellectual, and completely unpretentious. While working on my laptop, I watched people crocheting at the next table, others immersed in a game of chess, and even had a friendly fellow patron recommend and hand-deliver a copy of Bubble in the Sun to my table to discuss 1920s Florida history.
​Whether you are looking for a quality meal, live courtyard music, your next great read, or genuine human connection in the heart of Coral Gables, Books & Books earns an enthusiastic recommendation.“

“Went to JuanCafe and I loved it!! I definitely recommend trying the pandebonos, tamales and they have really good empanadas too!! Service was also really good and everyone was super kind. Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for Colombian food. Highly recommend!!!“

“Awesome spot for amazing food and warm friendly staff. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and offered mostly take out items but did have outdoor seating if you planned to eat there. We were greeted by Jose who offered us a shot of his new years lentil soup which was so flavorful! He has been there 13 years and with us being new to the area he had offered us sights to see and places to go. So sweet! We ordered the specialty breakfast sandwich with eggs, turkey, ham and cheese on a baguette and a strawberry banana smoothie. Both were very tasty! Before we left Jose offered us a shot of Columbian coffee, bold and good. Overall a wonderful experience and a must go to for anyone staying in the area!“

“eat at C’est Bon almost every single day, and I genuinely can’t say enough good things about this place. The food is consistently fresh, delicious, and made with care, and the service is always exceptional.

One of my favorite things in the world is the Berry the Hatchet Smoothie. It’s absolutely incredible, and I look forward to it every time I come in. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out.

What really makes C’est Bon stand out, though, is the people. Chelsea, the manager, is one of the most personable, genuine, and kind managers I’ve ever met. She goes out of her way to make every customer feel welcome, and it’s clear that she truly cares about creating a great experience.

I honestly couldn’t be happier with the service I receive every time I visit. Between the amazing food, outstanding customer service, and welcoming atmosphere, C’est Bon has become one of my favorite places to eat. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a consistently great meal and an even better experience“

“facade is one of my favorite bakeries. they nail it when comes to ambience service and vibe! the spotify playlist! the pastries sandwiches salads and beverage selection = all excellent! quality sourced ingredients. a small business locally owned and run..wish more places would pick up on what Oscar and team are doing here! bravo!!“

“We order here almost every day and are never disappointed. The sandwiches are amazing, the specials are delicious, delivery is super fast, and everyone is very nice. There is something on the menu for every taste so we never get tired of ordering!“

“The Fairchild is a great visit, and food at the Cafe is good. Hummus was a bit bland, and prices are a little high for a self service format, but a good choice is you're hungry at Fairchild on a non-festival visit

Vegetarian options: Good options, but the hummus was kind of blah“

“Love the fresh juices and smoothies!“
