25 Best Cafes near Fort Myers Beach

“Amazing every time ! I do both take out and dine in never been disappointed. Best Gyro ever !“

“First off our waiter Nancy was so nice and just awesome to have as a server. The food is amazing I love this place no matter what you order I promise you you will go back. Visit this place you won't regret it they have a wide variety menu. This time I got the turkey bacon club because I love a good sandwich and the soup I want that recipe.Went there bout 2 weeks ago and the waitress something about her don't sit right with me she bring me a dirty spoon and not just that a small peace of glass was in the soup. Showed her she didn't look surprised and as she's looking at it she drops it and then act like she didn't see it. Everytime we find a good restaurant it's always something but we won't be back there sorry I bragged about y'all to everyone but now it's y'all lost two customers because I'm never going back.“

“Kevin and Shannen are wonderful. Very friendly and welcoming. Great food, great wine and great events. Thank you for making me feel like family during my visit!“

“This is our favorite breakfast place in all of Ft Myers. We make numerous stops here during every vacation. The food is exactly what you would expect from a great diner. Generous portions, made to order, delivered to your table hot and endless hot coffee. My wife usually mixes it up and orders something different each visit. My go to is the Hash Skillet however all the skillet specials are great.The staff are attentive and very friendly.Also, give the cinnamon rolls a try, they are great!“

“i love this place. i eat stuff from here several times throughout the week. good people, good vibes and great food.“

“I was on my way through this place and when I put coffee on the map he recommended this beautiful place to me, and not only beautiful for its presentation but also for its delicious coffee ☕️ ? sandwiches, I loved the cheese bread ? and the customer service 10/ 10 definitely ? is not in my regular area, but obviously I will return to try the other dishes ??“

“GREAT LOCAL CAFE here in SWFL !! MacGregor blvd. has a lot of places to stop in for desserts and coffee. However this cafe offers more. Home-made soups and sandwiches, danish's,and cookies. Atmosphere, is warm, inviting, and comfortable The home-made ice cream is absolutely amazing! "THEY ALSO CATER" highly recommended to stop in become a regular.“

“Oh, I so hope the best for the owner rebuilding this perfect restaurant after vicious Ian. This place rates a 5 in all areas! I breakfast here basically every morning regardless how many weeks I stay on Sanibel. Good luck and I’ll be back as soon as possible!??“

“The people are so friendly and authentic!! Great coffee shop!!“

“Sanibel Cafe is a must when you come to Sanibel - the ambiance and service is unmatched. Our kids had the m&m pancakes (yummy), we had the sanibel omelette and the breakfast quesadilla - both were so yummy! Be sure to check out their homemade raspberry jam, it's to die for and you can buy some to take home too!“

“Even though I placed my order ahead of time, somehow the restaurant didn't receive it. I was in a hurry, but they got the order together for me as fast as possible. Unfortunately because they didn't already box my order several things were already sold out. But everyone loved everything that I got, was bringing breakfast to an office.“

“My go to brunch place, First Watch, never lets me down. Beautiful, if small, strip mall location that was clean and well maintained. All employees were busy with smiles on their faces. Jennifer was a knowledgeable and attentive server as I've had anywhere lately. And, THE FOOD, perfectly prepared and served hot. Don't forget the holey donuts. Thanks First Watch.“

“Went for breakfast with a group of six ladies. We all completely enjoyed our breakfasts! I had their avocado toast, which is always delicious, and the new chocolate mint cold coffee. The coffee was yummy, but needs to work on the ratio of coffee to sweetener. The glass was 2/3 sweetener and 1/3 coffee. Luckily there was a pot on the table that I was able to use to add to the drink. The other ladies had a variety of meals and each was pleased. The restaurant is sparsely decorated which makes its appeal rather cold. Other than that, I love First Watch.“

“Fort Myers Farmers Market has finally returned after the hurricane. For me, the highlight of the farmer's market is Delices Artisan Bakery. I have missed the wonderful croissants!!“

“Missing my Healthy Living restaurant from up North. Found this gem today and absolutely Loved the Asian Fusion Salad. This is a gem of a place nestled in a somewhat rundown plaza. The indoor atmosphere was very zen with great decor and music. I will definitely be back to try some of the other menu items.“

“I so enjoyed breakfast with my family today. Our server Brenda was very pleasant. The manager Steve who stopped by two times at our table checked on us and made sure we had everything that we needed. Great little place. Definitely will return. I have frequently visited the store on 6 Mile Cypress they are always awesome.“

“great food, eat there regularly“

“I would like to start by saying that the staff here is above and beyond. I placed a delivery order a week in advance not realizing that I had set the date incorrectly. About 30 minutes before the event I checked the order confirmation and found , to my absolute dismay, that I had scheduled incorrectly, missing the date by a whole month! In a blind panic I called this location and spoke to the manager who put me at ease, let me know that they would absolutely try their best to get this done for us but it might be slightly later than set on the original order. However the food was right on time even at such short notice! They did not miss a beat, they kept their cool when I was panicking and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone. Everyone I spoke to was friendly and helpful, the process was easy and they saved the day. Thanks guys!“

“The picture should say it for itself I want to take a picture of it full but I couldn’t help myself from sucking this shake down. So far I’ve have peanut butter cup and this one was banana nut!!! I can’t even tell you how good these are. I’m a travel nurse so this is such a great source of nutrients for me on the run. The staff if awesome they will recommend items for you I also add probiotic to mine. Thanks guys for making my shifts a little sweeter without the guilt?“

“Wondering atmosphere, very nice staff and delicious food. We came on Friday and it was 11 of us. Food came quickly ? I would eat here again.“

“I am only giving the service 4 stars because there was a lack of communication between the staff that were answering phones and handling the waiting list. I 'got in line's on the app too early for a party of 8 and called to let them know and was informed they would have me down for the right time. Then I received a cancellation text and called again to confirm that I was down for the correct time for our party of 8. I was informed that I was not (after the previous woman told me she would put me down) and that this different woman would make sure I was on the list for the appropriate time. I arrive 10 minutes early and my name was still not on the list. It wasn't an issue because we were seated within 10 minutes but it was still a bit frustrating that I had multiple people tell me I was on the list or that they would put me on the list when it clearly didn't happen. Other than that, all of the food, drinks, and atmosphere were great. Delicious food at a good price!“

“This place is such a wonderful mom and pop breakfast and lunch restaurant! Carole served us up some delicious “Stackers” and OJ. Everything was prepared fresh to order and perfectly to our liking. We have had multiple work associates recommend this place and we were definitely not disappointed. We will certainly be back! On top of all of that - Thank you Carol for taking care of me today when I forgot my purse in my post-surgery haze! You really went above and beyond to find me and get it back to me and the Get Well treats were so very sweet of you to include! ❤️ The world needs more people like you!“

“The name attracted us but the service was fast and friendly and the food was tasty and prepared with pride. We loved it!!“

“We arrived about 45minutes before closing + they (about 3 staff members) were doing their clean up. We said we’d hurry and sit outside. They were so kind and reminded us that they didn’t close until 2 and that we were more than welcome to stay inside if we wanted to. They even told us about the park across the street, as we were visiting with young kiddos. Very friendly staff, welcoming environment, + their cold brew with oat milk was absolutely delicious!! Our 7-year daughter got a smoothie + ? from her as well. Thanks!!“
