Shepherd Miami Reviews
I visited Shepherd Caffe on February 24, 2026, and it was such a wonderful experience. The cakes were absolutely delicious, and I ordered the cookies made by the owner—oh my goodness, they were pure heaven! I also tried the chocolate babka, and it was unbelievably good. I was sitting outside and it felt amazing. (There is also indoor sitting ) Everything tasted amazing, the place was very, very clean, and the atmosphere was so positive with high vibes all around. You can truly feel the love and care put into the food and the space. I highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back again!
Great spot near the beach! Found this place while staying nearby and I’m so glad I did. It’s just a block from Miami Beach and perfect for grabbing a coffee and walking to the ocean. The line was a bit long, but it moved fast. The food was great, coffee was smooth, and the staff were super friendly. Loved the cozy, Cuban-style vibe inside. We sat outside and enjoyed a relaxing breakfast in the Miami sunshine. Definitely recommend this place!
I have been leaving in Miami for almost 3 decades and i must admit this is one of my new favorite spots! The shepherd Frappe is extremely delicious which was made by "Gianella" but everything in general is one of a kind! I will definitely be recommending this outstanding location to everyone i know! The team were very nice including Keidy and Floro! If you would like an all day breakfast, sandwiches, salads, smoothies, fresh juices or additional great beverages, then this is an amazing place to come and enjoy
Shepherd Artisan Café on Collins Ave is a cozy and charming spot with excellent coffee and amazing service. My cappuccino was perfectly made, and the green “Hulk” muffin was a real treat — soft, fresh, and delicious. The staff is warm and welcoming, making you feel right at home. Definitely a great place for breakfast or a coffee break in Miami Beach!
The Shakshouka is delicious! LOVE their GF toast, looks like regular toast, I enjoyed it! However, they are pretty expensive, 1 shakshouka, 1 bagel, 2 coffees was $60 something
Great little spot for some coffee. We didn’t have any food but baked goods looked delicious. The staff was friendly. I would highly recommend.
Shepherd Artisan Coffee is a standout. The chicken mozzarella sandwich is excellent, the carrot cake is incredible, and the coffee never disappoints. The pastries are always tempting, and the atmosphere is warm, relaxed, and effortlessly cool. Easily one of my favorite spots in Miami.
What a quaint no frills coffee shop! Popped by bc we were at an escape room waiting for our room across the street. The staff is great! Try an iced matcha (no sugar one) with pistachio syrup! 10/10 one of the best matcha I had so smooth
Stopped in for morning coffee while walking. Cute place and good coffee. Outdoor seating or cool indoor available
Super cute! Plenty of space good pastry offerings and wifi + outlets available

My partner and I love exploring coffee shops when we travel, and this one has definitely earned a spot in our top 5! This is our second time visiting, and we make it a point to stop by at least once a day while we’re in town. The coffee is fantastic (we’re obsessed with the affogato!), the chicken mozzarella sandwich was amazing, the desserts are always delicious, and the staff couldn’t be more friendly or welcoming. We already can’t wait to come back again—this place is a must-visit!

Joaquin is the best he’s super nice and has great customer service skills . The other employees are great too. He’s just the most memorable because he always was at the counter working when I arrived. I loved coming to this cafe mainly because it was right across the street from my air bnb!!!I love the convenience. I ordered the small White chocolate latte, guava cheese pastry, and bagel with cream cheese, between yesterday and today and I just ordered breakfast. I got the shakshuka I love love love shakshuka and cannot wait to try that next!!! If you ever come to Miami, this is definitely a spot to try for good coffee all day breakfast and they have a pretty decent selection of options to snack on or just to even get a bite to eat in general! It’s just an absolute vibe here and if I ever return to Miami, this will be one of my destinations Again:) ~Zoë IG: zoxparkxr
Good coffee and pastries in a walkable and pleasant area. There is washroom here and staff are attentive and nice
Amazing spot! The coffee was excellent, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. I really enjoyed it. The owner was incredibly kind and even helped us with directions. Highly recommended
Well priced coffee that tastes great. I picked up a double espresso and a latte. Great flavor and my friend really enjoyed the latte. Its a cute little spot that offers other drink options and some food (salads, sandwiches, pastry, sweets). Definitely a fun find walking around. Indoor and outdoor seating available.
Hands down the absolute Best Coffee! with bakery and food to match anywhere in Miami Beach. The staff is amazing, they treat each other, and the customers, like family! You don't need to try any other place, this is the best 100%
A great place to abandon the urban jungles of Miami Beach, this place is unassuming and humble. Great crowd inside, awesome playlist, cool inside and excellent customer service. Celeste me dejó a practicar mi español con ella, Celeste let me practice my Spanish with her! Food is reasonable and coffee is decent. I just arrived from Seattle, the Pacific Northwest where coffee and salmon sandwiches are hard to beat... but this place did a good job considering it's the South Atlantic coast. Will visit again!
Shepherd Artisan Coffee is an absolute gem in Miami Beach! The atmosphere is incredibly cozy, making it the perfect spot to unwind any time of the day. The staff here are genuinely some of the nicest people you’ll meet—super friendly and welcoming. Their coffee is exceptional, and the pastries are always fresh and delicious. What sets this place apart is that they also offer wine :) . Whether you’re stopping by during the day or night, its is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend checking it out!
On the way back from the beach and an iced latte sounded divine. Amazingly enough, too my delight, this Cafe had macadamia nut mylk as an alternative option. I do believe it cost extra, but whether hot or iced; it's worth the extra indulgence, and in my opinion the superior of all mylk alternatives that you can come by at coffee shops. I do wish I had ordered it hot, since it really allows the espresso to be drank at its most savory quality point. However, you cannot hide poor quality espresso in an iced drink, since I always find it becomes acidic. This however was delicious, well roasted, earthy and had a natural sweetness that paired lovely with the nutty and creamy flavor of the macadamia nut mylk. On ice the mylk stays extra thick and creamy, making this more like a desert for the hot afternoon. Also this shop looked like it had really good food, all the customers dining looked very happy. The food I did see go thru looked yummy, I guess next time when I visit their will be a part 2!
I came here because it advertises artisan coffee. The coffee is good, but was disappointed to get it in a paper cup. Good coffee should be served in a nice mug. The food is healthy, but nothing special. Overall, I enjoyed my experience.
Great coffee. We had the cortado, cappuccino and multiseed croissant. All delicious and the coffee was divine. Great way to start the day in Miami. The team were friendly and efficient. Will visit again.
I had an excellent coffee at Shepherds. The quality was great, but what really made the experience special was the service. Micaela and Joaquín were incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming. You can really feel the care they put into what they do. I’ll definitely be coming back!
☕️✨ Absolutely loved our visit to this coffee shop! The iced brewed coffee and iced latte were both incredible—smooth, refreshing, and full of flavor. We also tried the chicken empanada, which was delicious and perfectly seasoned. Bonus points for the vegan options—they’re not just available, they’re genuinely tasty! The service was top-notch: Delfi and Carla were super friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Can’t wait to come back!
Amazing spot we stumbled upon on Collins ave. We had their avacado toast and coffee was amazing. Joaquin was very friendly and sweet to us. Exceptional customer service and food. Will be back next visit. Thank you Shepherd and Joaquin!
The staff at Sheperd Artisan Coffee was delightful. This adorable coffee shop in the heart of south beach, Miami, was the perfect stop for a quick cup of coffee and bite in the morning. SAC though isn't just for breakfast as they offer an array of pastries and dessert as well as alcohol throughout the day and evening.
Thank you for a good morning ☕️ 🙏🏼 We look desperately for a good European style coffee. When we asked about the coffee they said they import a good Italian one. The place is cozy and has a nice menu. We enjoyed the green salad.
seriously one of those places you leave already thinking about coming back. The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, and the portions were generous without feeling heavy. Everything came out hot and well-presented, and you can tell they care about quality.
My husband & I wanted an iced coffee after our time at the beach. We walk by Sheperd’s on our way back to the hotel; the workers were extremely nice & very helpful with deciding which iced coffee we wanted. They even let us try the different flavors we could add to our coffee. The coffee in the end was really good plus they have a variety of options for food & deliciously cute bakery choices.
I had a wonderful experience at the Shepherd artisan coffee shop in Miami. I asked for a chai latte and forgot to specify hot/iced. When it came out as a hot chai latte, I politely asked if it could be iced and apologized for not saying that in the first place. Without hesitation, the baristas worked quickly to ensure my order was fast, ready and right!!
Great spot to stop for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Shepherd offers a nice, chill environment where you can enjoy the best coffee in town with good calm music and healthy options in the menu. Their staff was very nice and attentive.
Gabi, Mica, & Hoda were amazing! Great recommendations on desserts for a family outing. We will be back!

This charming outdoor café was exactly what I was looking for. Delicious fresh juices; pastries and sandwiches; The beet, ginger V5 was a daily on my vacation. The empanadas were delicately made. The staff was friendly and local. Just overall easy going spot. Highly recommend!
Shepard’s Coffee is hands down one of the best spots in Miami Beach, not just for coffee, but for the food too. Me and my friends have tried a lot of places around Miami Beach, and this one actually stands out. The sandwiches are incredible, all extremely yummy. You can tell everything is made with care and not just thrown together. It’s the kind of place where you go in for coffee and end up coming back specifically for the food and the chill ambience. The location is also great. The coffee is consistently excellent, smooth, strong, and well made every time. And their iced chai is next level. Not overly sweet, super refreshing, and easily one of the best iced chais I’ve had anywhere in Miami. It’s hard to find a good one, and they really nailed it. It doesn’t feel touristy or rushed at all either, just a genuinely good spot in Miami Beach, If you’re in Miami this place is a must.
Such a cool local cafe in Miami. Their drip coffee and espresso were delicious! The service was great, and the place was so cute. Definitely worth checking out.
What a cute and yummy bakery. I got the ham and cheese croissant with the mango tango smoothie and my husband got the breakfast sandwich on a plain bagel. The food is super delicious especially if you want a cute simple place to stop at. The smoothie is delicious as well. It has a flavor in it I've never had but super good and refreshing. Just be prepared a lot of people like it here so their might be a line out the door but don't worry it will go down quickly with the good staff they have. Thank you and when we come back to Miami we will come back here.
Shepherd Artisan Coffee: A great little find. Very popular from our experience. A great place for a morning breakfast, not the cheapest but they definitely do the best smoothies I’ve ever tasted! A varied menu with some great options. Wonderful service and a Great atmosphere in there too. Can’t go wrong with this place to be honest. Thank you for our experience. 💫

Perfect cafe! Excellent coffee, delicious breakfast sandwich - all around so good! Loved that they were open early after watching the sunrise on the beach!
Shepherd Artisan Coffee and their staff Keldy, Gianella, Floro and Martin are the best in South Beach Miami!!! Incredible coffee, mouthwatering fresh made pastries and an energetic positive staff who make you feel good 👍 What more can you ask for?! We will go back for sure to try the many other delicious items on their menu. V and J
Me and my wife had a last stop in South Beach, Florida and stopped at Shepherd coffee shop. We were greeted by Joaquin and Santiago. With our first time here, Joaquin helped us navigate to the menu very well. We got the mozzarella sandwich and a turkey and cheese sandwich which was made from Santiago. Very very good sandwich. We will be coming here again! My wife also got a double shot Cortado made by Joaquin very good creama and coffee beans!
Was visiting the area and decided to give it a try. Food and coffee was a bit pricey but tasted pretty good. I decided to leave a review for the staff’s amazing customer service. They were very friendly and helpful. Atmosphere was very cozy inside as well.
The food and people both are amazing , Few days back I forgot my wallet in the cafe and flew to another city . I was a tourist I was confused what to do and had lost all my hopes . But the cafe owner helped me through it , he dropped off the wallet at FedEx with nice package and label and made sure the wallet reaches to me safely. Thank you so much you guys are as amazing as your coffee
We got the delicious fresco smoothie and a smooth semisweet mocha - both drinks were a 9 out of 10! To eat, we got the breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel (bacon/egg/cheese), egg salad sandwich on toasted multigrain (sliced hard boiled egg, caramelized onion, cucumber, and a honey spread). Both were excellent! We also got a side of potatos, which we devoured. The staff were super friendly, and the space is charming. Highly recommend!!!!
Great ambience and service! Espresso comes from à La Rapzocco, such a rich taste that reminds me of the sweet italian cappuccinos.

The carrot cake was absolutely the best cake I've ever had in my life. The danish was amazing as well. I had a chai tea that was delicious as well. This place was a 10/10.
The service was very fast and efficient which was much appreciated. The ambience was cute and fresh pastries were set out that I will definitely be back to try!

Such a nice place to hang out. Best atmosphere. Best coffee. Best service!!! Highly recommended for coffee and light breakfast/brunch.
Shepherd Artisan Coffee in South Beach felt like old school meets modernity. The architecture and the interior design felt more classic. You can smell the fresh coffee as you step into the cafe which is almost always a good thing. I ordered their latte and it lived up to their name. If you are in Miami, and are looking for a good cup of coffee, do not miss this place.
Shepherd Artisan Coffee in South Beach is a great spot to grab a drink and chill. The staff are super cool, laid-back, friendly, and genuinely helpful. The interior is well organized and stylishly decorated, giving it a cozy, artsy vibe that’s perfect for catching up on work or relaxing. The coffee is solid and the pastries are generally fresh, but the croissant I had was a bit oily and slightly smashed, which took away from the overall experience. Still, the atmosphere and service make this place stand out from the typical chain cafés. Definitely worth a visit!
Oh my God I’m so glad I came here! I got a Matcha latte next-door from it and I was disappointed so I decided to not drink it and get one from here. Gianella was absolutely helpful and amazing. She knows exactly what Vegan is too. And she knows exactly what I wanted.
Yummy coffee but the pastry selection was lacking. I liked the outdoor seating.
I went here for coffee after reading Google reviews. The place has a nice and stylish atmosphere, and the staff were very attentive—especially the guy at the counter, he helped us a lot while choosing our coffee. Our drinks were ready in a short time. However, the area where the drinks are prepared was quite dirty. We honestly didn’t expect it to be that dirty. I wouldn’t drink anything other than hot or cold coffee from there. The coffee itself tasted really good, but because of that dirty area, I wouldn’t go back there for coffee again.
We were here for a late breakfast. I chose this place because the menu had shakshuka. I liked the base for the shakshuka, but the eggs were overcooked and the yolk was not runny. The staff was polite, but the place felt lacking in cleanliness and coziness

I stopped by Shepherd Artisan Coffee while walking around Miami Beach and enjoyed the cozy vibe, friendly service, and a well-made cup of coffee that felt perfect for a quick break.
This cafe has great coffee selection with expertly brewed beverages that cater to all tastes, from smooth espressos to creamy lattes. Complementing the coffee, the food menu offers a delectable array of dishes ranging from savory brunch options to mouthwatering pastries. The charming ambiance makes it an inviting spot to unwind and savor a delightful café experience. Whether you're looking to start your day with a hearty breakfast or indulge in a delightful afternoon treat, this café is a must-visit destination for coffee lovers and food enthusiasts alike.
The coffee is better here than at the neighbor’s bakery next door, and the food menu is thoughtful, light, and fresh. However, you may need to plan an earlier lunch or order two breakfast items to satiate your hunger. The staff looks like they really enjoy each other’s company, but are mildly annoyed when they have to deal with customers. It’s still the best choice in a four-block radius.
Lovely cosy space. With the occasional dense sprinkling of help. I guess it gotten harder to hire quality help post Covid. It’s a mixed bag, but the product is good. Been a while since I’ve been here. The coffee is above hotel grade, maybe a bit overwatered, and the pastries did not disappoint. After a few tries, I moved on.
Great chai latte! Coffee and the tea both stayed hot for a long time. Breakfast egg sandwiches were also served nice and hot. The bagels are light and delicious. Staff was very welcoming as soon as we walked in we were acknowledged, even though they were busy. Great little spot! 4 stars because there was a sign that said we could get a 3% discount with zelle or venmo but the staff was confused when we asked about it.
Really good coffee and food offerings in a quaint little restaurant on the main drag. The portion sizes were pretty good. I only ordered breakfast food, but it was good and kept me pretty full for a good part of the day. The coffee was also good, as was the service given by the ladies managing the counter. They have to go options, as well as sit-down with tables outside.
DRINK REVIEW ONLY - I cannot speak on the food because I did not get it. I guess they have multiple locations in the Miami area, which I try to aim for a Mom and Pop coffee shop but at the time, this just did. The coffee was fresh and strong, it was hot out, so this my iced americano gave me a good afternoon boost. I did not add milk or fluffy syrup because I wanted to taste the coffee. The coffee shop is beyond cute but pretty small.The interior was vintage industrial with Victorian influences, which was gorgeous. I loved the warm brass and golden tones, along with the pattern tile flooring. This gave me European cafe vibes. Overall, the staff was friendly and the service was quick. The pricing for my drink was reasonable, especially for the location being in south beach.

They have two prices- menu price isn't right for tourists. Juice had 10.99 on menu but 14.40 on board, then they put ice in the juice. I had to go monitor them to ensure they didn't add water to …
Unfortunately not nice experience for this price (35 dollars for the food that is almost not possible to eat and self-service). Came for shakshuka especially. They give me back with totally uncooked eggs, asked to cook it. Finally it was too spicy, could it just eggs and bread. 🌶️ Don’t recommend it. Coffee is average. Bagel was delicious.
Cafe is pretty, spacious enough for outdoor and indoor places for small groups. Ordered iced Matcha latte, by default they gave the sweet one, it is just too sweet and the matcha felt syrupy and not real powder. The chocolate croissant was okay. Prices are on the expensive end, but that's just a Miami thing.

Despite this being a highly rated place in the neighborhood, the food was unfortunately below average. I had the Shepherd’s BLT, one of the flagship items on the menu. It was a fried egg on a soggy bagel with some cheese, greens, and bacon. The fries that came with it were also very oily and mushy. I’m sorry, but it was disappointing for me.

Disappointing coffee. I really wanted to like this place, but the coffee was just not good. I even added extra shots to try and get more flavor, but it didn’t help—it tasted weak and possibly not fresh. I gave them a second chance and mentioned my experience, but nothing changed. If you’re looking for quality coffee, this isn’t the place. The staff are very nice, but that alone doesn’t make up for the poor coffee.
Would you like to wait 25mins for coffee and a sandwich, just to get the order wrong? Then this is the place for you. Not saying that the front staff are prejudice, but they do have an affinity for white tourist types. Guessing us locals don't go there much. Entonces, the presentation was nice. They had to rewarm my sandwich 'cause it was just sitting there for at least 17mins, even after I asked about my order 10mins earlier. All-n-all, a disappointment. Worth a visit? Maybe. Goodluck.
Food was below average. Pistachio cake was $12 for a slice and really bad. Servers were great though so 2 stars.
I’m very disappointed with my recent visit. If I hadn’t noticed the mistake and reminded the staff, I would have been charged far too much for breakfast. Only thanks to my intervention was the correct price applied. This situation clearly shows that the seller does not know the price list and doesn’t even know what they are selling. On top of that, the food quality was poor and the coffee was simply disgusting. It was far from enjoyable. What makes it even more disappointing is that when I visited in July last year, the service and overall experience were completely different – much better. Unfortunately, this time it was very bad. Because of this experience, I will not be coming back.
Today, three friends and I visited this café. Unfortunately, we had a negative experience with one of the dishes as well as with the customer service. We requested a partial refund for a dish that was returned to the kitchen and not consumed, but our request was denied. As consumers, we exercised our right to leave an honest review on Google. In response, the business publicly stated that they were “very sorry” and that a refund had been issued. However, no refund was ever provided. This response appears to contain false and misleading information intended to misrepresent the situation to the public. We documented the matter by taking screenshots of the business’s response and providing proof that no refund was issued. All relevant evidence has been submitted to the Federal Trade Commission for review. Good luck.
Idk how they received any decent reviews. Everything is $2 more than their menu states. The oatmeal is just Quaker oatmeal packets. Took 25 minutes to get a cup of coffee and there is no cream or sugar out so you have to wait another 5 minutes to get cream and your coffee is cold by then
I was really disappointed with the salmon sandwich. The bread was terrible — dry and flavorless — and it felt like the whole thing was just bread with almost nothing inside. There was no egg, no balance, and absolutely no taste. I would never have chosen it if the café hadn’t hidden these details behind a vague text description. When will all those café finally learn how to photograph its food?
After reading the reviews I thought of giving this place a try but I was very disappointed. We ordered a breakfast plate, a steak sandwich and very basic coffee but nothing was done right. The steak was extremely overcooked, the flavors were there but the quality of meat wasn’t that good specially for the prices and preparation of it was even worst. The coffee was worse than Starbucks even and I hate Starbucks to the core fyi. After screwing up the order and remaking it, it still tasted weak and below average. Coming to the breakfast plate, the salad didn’t even have a dressing on it, they were serving canned tuna with it which I did not expect for the price we paid for the breakfast plate. We paid $70 for the food and it was definitely not worth even 20, I was extremely dissatisfied and would not go back here. Ps after reading my review instead of making things right the owner literally kicked us out, this is what goes for customer service these days. I highly recommend to avoid.
