We are here because we had to evacuate our home due to the current hurricane. I walked to this shop and ordered a large coffee. After realizing I couldn't pay, they sent me out with coffee in hand, telling me to just come back and pay later if I could. I did go back and pay. The ladies here are amazing, and coffee was perfect!

This spot is a couple blocks from south beach, it has multiple good vegetarian options, it has espresso drinks. I think it's one of the better spots to eat if you're a vegetarian on South beach not looking for fine dining.

Rugelach is so good. Coffee has a nice texture and mild taste.

Absolutely worth calling in for a coffee. Great service

Loved this place! Very delicious! Awesome avocado toast. Coffee! Definitely will recommend it to my friends

Nice little cafe with vegan options. The smoothie and fresh juices are delicious but served in plastic cups and plastic bottles. The tofu bowl was very good but could have had more vinegar. We were glad to get a healthy breakfast. Thanks

Grand Cafe is a must-visit for foodies in the area. The chefs here are clearly passionate about their craft, and it shows in every dish they create. I had the pleasure of trying the duck confit, and it was one of the best meals I've had in ages. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the accompanying puree was silky and smooth. The service was also excellent - our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made some great recommendations. I can't wait to come back!

The banana bowl tasted delicious! 😋 Friendly staff and nice ambience.

The croissants were very delicious 🥐

Super friendly staff, nice coffee and lemonades. Went twice for brunch and tried different breakfasts—everything was very tasty.

Great meal. Not too pricey and a lovely atmosphere.

The best breakfast I have ate for a while! So fresh, not too heavy feeling after the food, delicious!!! the cafe mocha was so good!! even my baby ate here, which is not usuall for her to enjoy the food in such way... I wish we had this cafe in maryland :)

Really great food (and I’m from NYC with high standards), service is perfect and efficient, food comes out so fast somehow, espresso coffee is extracted expertly, baked goods are fresh and well-made, lots of spacious seating indoors and outdoors… I’ve come here 3 days in a row and counting.

The Grand Cafe is one of the best French restaurants in the city. The menu is extensive and the quality of the food is unbeatable. The escargot is always a favorite of mine, and the steak frites is cooked to perfection. The staff are also incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and can help you find the perfect dish to suit your tastes.

Good atmosphere, bright, good service, nice design, awesome food.

Breakfast before our flight - Amazing coffee, pastries and great service! This will be the new morning routine when I’m in town.

Good coffee. Good bites. Staff are super welcoming, on top of their game, and friendly. Outdoor and indoor seating. Another addition to our Sunday coffee ride list.

Staff is quite friendly! I believe this spot is a hidden gem that most people do not know about! Great coffee. I got the drip coffee and it was perfect! The breakfast is big and delicious! Definitely will come back and rec this spot.

This cafe is really cute and the staff is really nice. We ordered a macchioto and a orange ginger juice. Both were really good and we will visit again

One of the few places open before 9am in Miami Beach. Super friendly staff and talented baristas. I liked the cold brew, especially for $4!! They also offer lots of vegan options.

We went every morning we were in Miami. Everything was delicious and very well made. I highly recommend this place.

The staff was friendly, the food was really clean and tasted great, the salmon had a special taste and they have fresh juice.🙏🏻

LOVED IT. Very cute place, food looked delish (and lot of options). Only took a coffee, but was good!! And staff was super nice too

Lots of great options to choose from, we enjoyed the Tuna Salad & Shakshuka, very fresh and flavorful. A really nice atmosphere and delicious coffees as well.

I had the most delightful experience at Grand Cafe Miami! The location is absolutely great. The limonana was so refreshing and delicious, just what I needed on a hot day.

Really lovely atmosphere and great selection of breakfast items. Jasmine was great and made me feel welcome and comfortable, would recommend.

immaculate jerusalem bagel. Everything in this picture was so good. Down to the salad and olive oil. Fresh bagel and tasty filling. Could do without kalamatas but it’s ok, really easy to pick out.

This quaint little coffee shop with its friendly staff has quickly become a favorite place of mine to sit and read my book on saturday mornings. They have a delicious salmon and cream cheese bagel, loaded with capers, red onions and a slice of tomato as well. Very, very delicious. The hummus was soft, silky, freshly made that day and served with plenty of piping hot pita bread wedges to dip into the generous bowl of hummus. But my all-time favorite has got to be the coffee! On the same level as Horton's coffee in Canada and the espresso they have is definitely on the same level as the best italian espresso you can possibly imagine. The espresso is rich and bold in flavor, just a tinge of sweetness to go with the deliciously heavy bitterness that all true espresso-lovers value. The ice-coffee is amazing. Some places, it tastes watery, but not at Grand Cafe. Here, it is rich, smooth and almost as strong as an espresso. Have it black, or have it with a shot of whole milk, and it becomes a whole other layer of wonderful. The cafe itself is bright, naturally lit by the Floridian sun shining through the large windows. Softly twirling fans keep the room airy, and the seating is comfortable inside or outside. The ambience is very peaceful and gentle. Whether you live here or you are visiting and want a great coffee before a day of sightseeing the city, I can only recommend you start your day the right way, with an espresso and a bagel at Grand Cafe.

We had the grand cafe breakfast and the spicy tuna poke along with Americano coffee, the food was delicious and we fell in love with the coffee, OMG sooo gooood.

Great healthy food, love the salmon bowls, nice vibe, little in the pricey side but QUALITY food!

Overnight Oats and Latte , does not get any better then this coffee shop!! Must visit when I'm miami and south beach 😍😍😍😍😍

November 14, 2025 Cabel is amazing his customer service is impeccable. The hospitality words are not enough. This is my 3rd time This year traveling to Miami for special occasions. Thank you for my croissants very fresh. Wishing the staff all the best!

Delicious! My friends and I are visiting from New Orleans, we were looking for a coffee spot close to our Airbnb. We chose Grand Cafe and I’m so glad! Ambiance was on point and customer service is great. Would recommend!

Cafe opens early at 7am which is great for early risers like me. Staff are very kind. My latte was great and so were the pastries I got.

Amazing food. A little pricey. I got a croissant and açaí bowl and coffee. The açaí bowl was literally amazing and so fresh. I’ve never had a better croissant in my life. The coffee was pretty good too.

One of my favorite meals in South Beach!! The Salmon bowl was so delicious and the espresso was on point. Will eat here everytime I visit South Beach!!

They have a large selection of menu to choose from wraps, sandwiches, toasts, shukshuka, patties, cakes.. we ordered a tuna toast, vegan wrap, potato patties and banana cake and everything tasted more than delicious and fresh..

If you like açai bowls, you have to come to the Grand Café. May be the best one I’ve ever had and I am an açai bowl connoisseur! I think they even make their own granola. If you sit in, it is served in a real coconut shell. I haven’t tried anything else, but the sandwiches, salads, pastries, and coffee all look really good. I highly recommend this place.

This place is absolutely incredible! Was visiting Miami with my girlfriend for a few days and we went to this coffee shop every morning. The chai latte and iced vanilla latte were consistently perfect. The food was also delicious. We had the Shakshuka and Miami Beach Sensation, both were sooo good. On top of that, the staff is amazing. Very welcoming as soon as you step in, positive vibes, and they make sure you’re fully taken care of. Will be coming back again on our next visit!

Grand Cafe Miami is my favorite brunch spot here in South Beach. It’s such a cute and cozy cafe and the food is super healthy and delicious. The girls at the front are very friendly. Special thanks to Kristal for her incredible service and positive vibe. She definitely made our experience more special. I would highly recommend this place!

Super cute place on Collins. Good for a quick breakfast or lunch near the beach. Latte could be better but it served its purpose. Avo toast was delish (add an egg 😉). Not pricey at all!

Perfect little cafe with a beautiful esthetic. The matcha latte and nova toast were very good. Service was friendly. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely gorgeous . The inside looks like a set if a romantic movie scene and the drinks are out of this world . The real reason i am leaving a review is the cashier . (Shout out to sophia) she is the reason i felt so comfortable and accepted here . One of the best customer service i have seen in the states . We had a warm chitchat and that woman deserves a raise . Thank you ❤️

¡Excelente café hecho por verdaderos baristas! El café estaba exquisito, con la temperatura perfecta y ese sabor intenso que uno espera—¡nada de exceso de azúcar! Si quieren probar un café realmente bueno, este es el lugar indicado. El staff es extremadamente amable y hace que la experiencia sea aún mejor.

Maxi Miguens

muy recomendable el lugar la comida muy rica muy bien presentada . sin dudas volveré pronto por la atención de agustina y el manager akapela !!

Travel_for_a_coffee

Muy recomendable para desayunar tranquilo si estás por esta área de Miami Beach,el menú muy bueno y variado y el café top 🔝

This cafe boasts a truly wonderful atmosphere and a prime location. The staff were attentive and provided excellent service throughout my visit. However, I must mention that the egg served with my meal was unfortunately undercooked. Despite this issue, the coffee itself was rich and flavorful, a definite highlight of the experience. I would likely return, but perhaps order something different next time.

Very cute coffee shop service was kind and great. I would definitely return.

Good food! Took a lot of time for our order to arrive and the guy that works there gave our food to different people and forgot about our coffee. Tnx tho.

Tasty food, fast and friendly service. Chill vibe. Good for a breakfast.

Decent bowl with real acai. Only downside is the least expensive bowl comes out to $17 minimum. Not quite big enough to share.

You have to walk up to the cashier to order your food. It is nice that they are bringing it to you, but it would be nice for the waitress to take your order at the table.

Food was great with huge portions. Location needs improvement

5 stars for Nicholas! :) Zero Stars for Augustine. I visit this Cafe when i’m on holiday in Miami. Usually service is exceptional. Today’s experience was saved by Nicholas who was very patient and kind while suggesting items for me. I ordered the almond croissant, fruit bowl and matcha latte. The almond croissant was warmed and returned to me with a mountain of powdered sugar added. Unfortunately this sugar would not work for me and I asked if i could have it replaced with out the additional sugar which I did not ask for. Augustina informed me “we always add the sugar.” Interesting this to say as a TOURIST cafe. “We cannot give you another. We will just give you your money back we don’t have more” as i’m staring into the container with TWO more croissants. I then approached Nicholas with the concern who immediately made the switch for me. I appreciate his service first attitude and will continue to rerun when on holiday in Miami.

Served very quickly, and pretty good breakfast though can be beaten by others nearby. Music was way too loud to actually have a conversation.

Loved dining at the Grand Cafe Miami! The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. They were also patient with all of our questions and made solid recommendations. The chai latte is delicious, just wish it came in a bigger size because it was so good and I wanted more. The americano also hit the spot. As for the food, the Shakshuka and pita was DELICIOUS!! It was flavorful, had the right amount of spices without being spicy and just an overall great meal. Highly recommend it. Just note that it is a large portion so either come with a big appetite or be prepared to share. The Croissant omelette was also delicious and if you add the smoked salmon, it takes it up a notch. There's a bathroom for customers that is clean and spacious. There are lots of seats to choose from and the overall experience is a good one.

I largely give this score down to presentation of the food which was beautiful to look at...otherwise the food was nice but nothing amazing taste wise. My knife was so blunt i struggled to cut through my sourdough bread. Options to sit indoor and outside.

Cute cafe across from Walgreen’s but wasn’t impressed with the food quality. It’s okay if you’re in a pinch but frankly my smoothie and tuna bowl (that was mostly brown rice) were just bland, which was disappointing for the price I paid ($40). The staff were friendly and attentive but the food here just misses the mark.

The Smoothiebowls were really good, especially the one with peanut butter which I can recommend. Also big portion sizes. The cashier/waiter did not speak English (only spanish) which is a disappointment...

Exquisito café. Buen servicio. La pastelería es óptima. El lugar es bonito y confortable pero la música un poco alta a mi gusto.

Açaí bowl tasted pretty good, was nicely assembled. Açaí wasn’t fully blended with a big frozen chunk in it. The fruit was fresh and nice though. It also seemed a little small for the price (~$14-15 after the charges). Egg bagel breakfast was disappointing, the bagel wasn’t good and tasted like a grocery store or an airport quick service bagel. Maybe it’s the New Yorker in me that expects good bagels and bread.

I had a cappuccino. It was very plain and I was not impressed. There are better options around within 500m. That being said the barista girl was friendly and nice.

Nothing special with coffee. They charge a 10% service fee 🤷🏻‍♀️ There are not many coffee places that open before 8am in the area, so I appreciate they are open.

Food was not the best and the coffee and matcha were not that tasty. Overpriced for what you get.

I got the omelette wrap and an oat milk latte and both were really good! Down one star because there was a $1.99 service fee and when I asked what it was for the girl laughed and said she didn't know. A $2 fee for what, just ordering?? Weird. And should be disclaimed if not in writing def by the workers. Down another star because the total came to $26 for just a wrap and latte - pretty expensive!

It’s a good place. Is it 5 stars? No. I saw that my avo toast actually comes with a salad dressing which I didn’t get. Made the whole thing pretty lame and dry. A really good avo toast can also use some spices on top just to make it less boring. Staff is super nice though.

Has a cozy atmosphere, but the food was inconsistent. The shakshuka was flavorful and well-prepared, a definite highlight. However, the ahi tuna salad was overwhelmingly salty due to the high-sodium soy sauce, making it difficult to enjoy. While the location is great, the food preparation could use some refinement to match its potential.

the service was ok, no atmosphere at all. the bowl was big however not best tuna bowl i’ve had, it was fresh but mediocre. it was 25$.

Very expensive, even for South Beach. 50 USD for 2 avocado toasts, 1 acai bowl, coffee and orange juice. Avocado toast was average, acai bowl was good but very small. Definitely not going back.

The food was average at best, lacking flavour and nutritio. To make matters worse, the staff didn't speak English, making communication difficult and frustrating. The service was slow and inattentive, and the overall ambiance was uninviting.

I had the spicy tuna toast which was well marinated, but still half frozen. I waited a bit before eating it and then it was ok, but shouldn't be served like this. They only show you the sum when paying. Only after giving a full tip, they gave me the bill which is when I realized they already charged 10%. I didn't see this indicated anywhere. Didn't feel right, especially because service was very mediocre (when bringing the food, they kind of dump it on the table without saying anything) and the half frozen tuna. Won't be back.

Overpriced and meh. I live in one of the most expensive cities in the US and in NYC a lot. So expect high prices and fine with it as long as the food follows. This place is way over priced and the food just plain mediocre. They automatically add a service charge and the service slow. We had a croissant egg sandwich. There were a bunch of chefs in the back, so though all would be nice a fresh. it came right out and was cold like it had been made yesterday. Just skip this place. Iced coffee came out after the meal. after I went up and reminded. Not sure how it is in business, but its south beach, so real hit or miss.

This place has potential if they focus more on the food. Their service is okay and location/vibes are great. I got a latte and it was very watery. The espresso tasted like instant coffee. The food is average and pricey.

Smoothie was good but the store cleanliness is concerning. Trash and dust everywhere and staff are all chatting and checking phones and nobody bothered to clean.😡

Food either under cooked or over cooked service sucked coffee decent and ok was great but in other words don’t waste your time. Even the server swiped through the check out pad adding a way over the top tip which I had to change back to reality. Do not go

Horrible experience Icant believe this place has positive reviews I asked for iced matcha and it was made hot by mistake and instead of remaking I got the same hot matcha just w 3 ice cubes... plus there was no matcha only milk. We ordered breakfast bagels - completely tasteless. Bread is old, eggs have no salt pepper nothing, tomatoes tasteless. We locals who live around the corner and we will never come again. Only 2 stars for polite staff

Service was with an attitude - didn’t feel welcome. Decent coffee, food mediocre and overpriced. Lots of better places around that area

The café has very friendly staff and a fantastic location close to the beach, which initially set a positive tone. Unfortunately, the food did not meet expectations. While it was freshly prepared, the flavors were unconvincing. I ordered a vegan açaí bowl, but it had an off-putting fishy smell that completely ruined the experience. On top of that, the prices are quite high, and the quality does not justify the cost. It's a shame, as the potential is there, but improvements in food quality and attention to detail are necessary.

Ibamos con buena expectativa pero no se cumplió. Somos frecuentes en los desayunos y nunca nos habían puesto aguacate untado, pan sin tostar y sin ser de masa madre. Los croissants estaban ricos. No volveríamos ni lo recomendaríamos. Pagamos casi 60$ lo mismo que pagamos por comer posteriormemte y comimos delicioso en otro lugar. Una pena

Coffee was horrible, I asked for a oat latte. milk was cero foamy , coffee was boiling and it was made with americano I bet it wasn't made with espresso . 15 dlls for not even drinking 2 coffees. I guess I understand why there was no one in the restaurant

We went to this cafe with some expectations looking at its 4.4 stars, but had a very disappointing experience. The good stuff - The location and ambience is great. There are ample breakfast and coffee options. The service is fast. The food however, was extremely bad. We had the vegan wrap and avocado sandwich. The vegan wrap had no sauce which made it very dry, the wrap itself was hard (and possibly stale) and no fun to eat. The avocado sandwich had just tomatoes and some avocado crushed between fat slices of bland, hard bread. The latte was average. I would not eat here again.

The waitress who served us was incredibly rude and unprofessional. From the moment we walked in she seemed annoyed and uninterested in providing good service. Breakfast bagel was decent, the chai latte on the other hand was disgusting.

I m really disappointed on my experience here! I got a shakshouka and it was testing like detergent, either of the pot that was cooked on or idk. Also, they have option for the tip 18%, 20% and 25%.. what they don't mention is that they also have gratuity 10%....

I ordered flat white coffee, it is double espresso with milk foam coffee. However they made a milk that smells like a coffee. I ordered additional shot of espresso to make this milk looks more like coffee, hover, this espresso did not seem like espresso, more like regular coffee with water. Guys, please revise your coffee machine settings and train barista. You have good coffee machine, however coffee is terrible.

Actually the worst, most disgusting waffles I’ve ever had. Stale as if they were defrosted and left out for hours. Completely rotten strawberries.

Tried to visit. It was closed Tuesday November 8th at 3:54pm .....completely locked, chairs stacked, no staff. Call ahead, it may not be open or available anymore.

HORRIBLE SERVICE , takes forever when no one is inside and waitress gave us wrong plate and charged us for her mistake. NEVER RECOMMEND TO COME HERE. QUALITY IS HORRIBLE FOR PRICE

they don’t have Kosher certificate probably because they open in Shabbat. probably the food is good and seem like all the grand Cafe but this one specifically is not Kosher.

Scam place, suggested tip for 5 dollar coffee - that already includes 20% service charge - is 3 bucks (and it auto selects it if you just sign, even if you haven’t selected it)

I generally don’t bother to write reviews but this is really important for the safety of anyone visiting this place. We went there on 5th Feb 2024 to pick up some breakfast and coffee before leaving for the airport. We were 6 people and we ordered a lot of food and coffee. We picked up almost all bakery items so that we get to taste different things. We even got 6 coffees according to each one of our choices. The coffee was pathetically made, there was no coffee in it and the milk tasted weird. Let’s come to the food. We brought back the food to our airbnb and very happily started to eat. One of my friends tasted something weird in her croissant and when she opened it, to her shock there was ominous amount of mold/fungus (please see pictures for reference) inside it. She vomited as soon she realized what it was. After that everyone checked their food and we found little mold in few other stuff as well. We went back to them expecting at least an apology if not a refund. But they were so rude to us. They were giving lame answers and did not sound apologetic about it at all. They in fact went as far as saying that all items were freshly baked. None of us after seeing that mold in the food felt like eating anything throughout the day. In fact my friend got a bad food poisoning. All of us were feeling uncomfortable throughout our flight back home that evening. We did not expect a full refund or the items to be given again (would never eat anything from that place obviously) but at least if the servers were a little kinder in handling this situation, I wouldn’t be informing the world about this in this review.

I got the green and good smoothie…green but not good. Tastes of nothing tastes like literally foam ice. $30 for two smoothies that taste of nothing.

visited your café with my sister recently, and unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. When we approached the counter for my sister to order an iced coffee, the staff member taking her order did not greet us, did not smile, and maintained a stone-faced demeanor that was off-putting. After my sister placed her order, he didn’t say thank you or acknowledge her in any way. While my sister went to the restroom, another staff member brought the coffee to the counter. He also set it down without saying a word, no smile, no hello—again with the same unwelcoming demeanor. I said “thank you,” and he mumbled “you’re welcome” while walking away. We normally tip wherever we go, but the lack of professionalism, courtesy, and hospitality in this interaction made us feel uncomfortable and even profiled. The overall treatment was uninviting and left us with no desire to order anything further. I truly hope management addresses this behavior, because customer service and first impressions matter. A simple smile, greeting, or thank you can completely change a guest’s experience.

I used to love coming to this coffee shop back when it was under different ownership/management, but my experience today was extremely disappointing. When I approached the cashier, he didn’t acknowledge me or even say hello. I had to greet him first, and his response was a weak, unenthusiastic “hello” that felt dismissive and unwelcoming. That alone was off-putting, but unfortunately, the experience only got worse. While I stepped away to the restroom, my sister told me that another staff member dropped our coffee on the counter without a word, and the lid wasn’t even on properly — it spilled all over the counter. When she said “thank you,” the employee just mumbled a half-hearted “you’re welcome” and walked off. The complete lack of basic courtesy and professionalism was disappointing . Even more troubling, both my sister and I left feeling like we were being profiled because of our skin color. As former waitresses, we both understand what good customer service should look like and we always tip generously. But this was the first time I felt so disrespected that I did not leave a tip. Sadly, I will not be returning. What was once a welcoming place has become unprofessional, unwelcoming, and disappointing. The $8 coffee was trash.

🚨 Scam! 🚨The screen auto-selects a 100% tip when you get a 5 dollar coffee! Coffee was fine ngl To the workers working there: I hope you at least get to keep those tips! Presuming the owner sets up the tip machine, however, my guess would be that the owner is stealing tips from the staff. Or maybe the staff have to make the machine a scam because the owner is stealing the mandatory 20% service charge… and so the staff generally get no tips otherwise… except when people fall for the scam? Hard to say for sure, folks Would make a great low-stakes episode of Sherlock, this. Elementary scamming, my dear!

Horrible service the girl was super disrespectful i ordered one plate and told her I didn’t want the pancakes and then she brought me the pancakes and I said oh I didn’t order this but thank you and she said don’t worry about and it’s okay .. so I was like cool after when I was leaving I got approached saying I need to pay for the pancakes… making me feel like I’m stealing that was so so disrespectful and messed up .. it honestly really hurt for someone to feel that way. I worked in a restaurant industry for so long and me myself being a waitress I sometimes mess up ppl food orders too and I take accountability for it. but with this one the way they treated me and disrespected me saying that I needed to pay making me feel like I’m stealing .. wow horrible .. and when I encountered her I had two witnesses and yet she made a face to me .. it was messed up . I paid for my own food with dignity even though I shouldn’t be even paying for it. Honestly horrible service .. no disrespect towards the cooks .. they didn’t do anything but the boy in the girl front treated me .. with un professionalism and disrespect.. thank you guys for not taking accountability for ur own mistakes and throwing it on the customer.
