5 coffee and sweets shops in Miami
1) Panther Coffee
Miami’s first independent coffee minichain has been a rousing success. It roasts its own coffee in small batches, not only supplying itself but restaurants and cafes. In its own locations, it also serves baked goods and wine, and fosters appreciation of the arts, both visual and performing. A true Miami institution.
2) Vice City Bean
Whenever a Miamian says they work from home, they really mean they work from vice, drinking everything from a mocha with Camino Verde Ecuadorian chocolate to a Luz Helena Salazar Colombian nitro cold brew to a cajeta latte inspired by Mexico. And eating overnight oats and cinnamon rolls, too, while they’re at it.

3) Cachito Coffee and Bakery
This appealing Latin-American coffee shop displays its heart on the surface of your cappuccino or latte. Designs change depending on which artisanal barrista is on duty, as do the daily, house-made empanadas, croissants, quiches, pies and tarts. Check the chalkboard for what’s available, but do check in. Prices beat national chains, and so does atmosphere.
4) Neverland Coffee Bar
This charming throwback – vaguely Peter Pan-themed – is a welcome place to work, meet friends, or simply sit alone and smell the literal flowers in the garden. An extensive menu is served all day. But don’t neglect the beverages, especially the hot golden coffee, made with espresso, almond/coconut milk, turmeric, cinnamon, coconut oil, ghee, brown sugar and condensed milk.
5) Magdalena Coffee Bar & Houseplants
In a sea of Miami neon, this eclectic Latin American coffee bar is a tiny, natural, emerald gem. The décor is green-and-white, every nook is stuffed with a plant, and the handcrafted coffees and pastries are outstanding. There’s even merch for those who want to advertise this secret spot, although it’s small enough to make you think twice.
