The 17 best breakfast and brunch in Islamorada

First off, VERY clean place. Good prices. They have a fancy side and. Very nice chill bar with plenty of TVs. The bar tend Rob was great. The food was excellwnt, fresh fish and really good bbq. Try the turtle twinkies (bacon qrapped, jalapeño stuffed with cheese and brisket).

We had an incredible breakfast at The Green Turtle Inn! The crab omelette was absolutely phenomenal—perfectly fluffy and packed with sweet, fresh crabmeat. Every bite was rich and flavorful, and it was easily one of the best omelettes I’ve ever had. What made the experience even better was our waitress, Stephanie. She was friendly, attentive, and gave us great recommendations. Her upbeat attitude and top-notch service made us feel truly welcome from the moment we walked in. If you’re in the Keys and looking for a breakfast spot that delivers both great food and genuine hospitality, The Green Turtle is it. Don’t miss the crab omelette—and ask for Stephanie!

Friendly and welcoming staff. We sat at the bar and had Key Limecolda and a IPA. We watch Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives so we had to try the meatloaf just as he did. It did not disappoint wow. We also had some mussels. Can’t wait to come back down and stop by again

I just stopped in here for a much needed water and the bartender was really nice and understanding. She was wearing a gold chain and I told her I would tip her and she said I didn't have to but I gave her a few dollars anyway. The place looked super nice with 2 bars. Plenty of seating. I definitely Thought thecoming back to eat after seeing how nice it was inside but didn't get a chance to. Would definitely like to if I ever make it back down to the Keys! Thank you to the bartender for being so nice and understanding!

I was oversold this restaurant by alot. We arrived late for our reservation of 8 due to an accident on the road. We called to let them know but apparently we were one of many patrons also late so when we arrived the hostess was cold and irritable. We were seated at a nice table and our server was attentive. We ordered the lamb appetizer which was a hit at the table and also the turtle soup which was not much for flavor or imagination. The table ordered several prime ribs and the accolades from our group were great based mostly on size. The prices definitely reflect that though. I ordered hogfish piccata and honestly, it didn’t taste fresh enough, the piccata sauce was slimy and I scraped it off, the carrots and asparagus had no asparagus and the carrots were cold and hard. Mostly our group was delighted and happy with food, service and atmosphere. I felt it to be classic yet dated, overpriced for the quality but the service made up for most inequities. It was our friend’s 60th and they graciously offered cake with candles made it feel festive. I felt our bill to far exceed the quality and atmosphere but I also appreciated the classic keys experience.

We have wanted to come here (honestly) for thirty years; we pass it every year as we drive up and down US-1. We stopped for dinner yesterday for the first time - it was 100% worth the wait! We had cocktails and appetisers at the bar, and sat in the restaurant for wine and dinner. My wife had (the recommended) pork chop, and I had “Guy’s favourite” meatloaf; both were delicious. Nice atmosphere and great service (thank you, Angela). We won’t wait 30 years for our next visit!

I owe Green Turtle Inn an apology…I was sooo wrong! I’ve been going to the keys since I was old enough to drive(I’m 61yrs now) and have passed by GTI a thousand times. I’ve never stopped because I’ve always thought or had been told it was a dive. I was sooo WRONG!!! A friend of mine who lives in the keys strongly suggested we eat there - we did, and we LOVED it! So much so that we back the next morning for breakfast-loved that too! I AM SORRY! Now, we can’t wait to return to the keys just to be able to stop in at GTI - now one of my favorite restaurants in the keys! Btw, the service for both dinner and breakfast was phenomenal, as was the food! I’m sorry and thank you! Also, congrats on your many years of serving the Keys. **dinner not pictured-was enjoying the pork chop way too much to take photos

The restaurant has a beautiful location right on the water, with a great attraction next door. It brings great crowds at peak times. Unfortunately the food is really not good. Their fried fish tastes like it was taken out of a grocery store breaded fish sticks section, the tacos had nothing to them but some cabbage, tomatoes and piece of fish that had nothing flavor to it. We are both fish lovers and neither of us could push ourselves to finish the meal. Even the fries were not good. Mind you, the ice tea was lacking flavor too. I tried adding sugar and lemon and nothing saved it. What this needs is a new chef and quickly. On top of that, you will see your waiter when you order and when you hunt them down to pay. Our drinks were not delivered and I finally got them after 15 min, after getting up and asking 3 waiters to get them. Not worth the time. There are many better organized and better meal quality options nearby.

Stopped by for lunch and enjoyed every bite of my sandwich. The views, the food and the service were fantastic. This place looks like a fun place in the evening. Wish we had time to stay around for dinner.

Absolutely beautiful spot by the water and ships. If you choose to sit by the deck you can watch people feed the tarpon and usually there's some pelicans and other birds nearby. Hate to do this, but I will say the food is on the pricier side and sadly I found to be quite lackluster with exception of the lobster bisque. The drinks are much smaller than establishments with similar price points. I think we went to maybe 25 restaurants in the time we were in this area and this one has the longest wait and slowest service of all of them. We waited 20 minutes to get our drinks. Certainly they were short-staffed however not busy either.

Very cool vibe! Beautiful view. Got to feed the tarpons!! Had the shrimp and coconut shrimp and it was mediocre. Bit overpriced but island prices I guess. But I might recommend the happy hour boiled shrimp. Great value and tasty.

We tried that trailer trash bloody mary, made by the sweetest lady, super quick, you know? The mix was a bit weak, but the stuff on top was awesome, a good snack. Prices are kinda high, though. But the view and the vibe are what make this place worth it.

Breakfast at Robbie’s in Islamorada was a perfect Keys experience — waterfront views, hearty food, and warm service. I had eggs, home fries, sausage, and toast cooked exactly right, while my companion’s blueberry pancakes were fluffy and delicious — easily “the best in the Keys.” Fresh fruit on the side added a tropical touch. Our server, Jana, was outstanding: friendly, attentive, and perfectly timed with coffee refills and extras. Between the food, the setting, and her service, breakfast at Robbie’s is an easy 10/10.

I went to have lunch today with my mom, husband and son for my mom’s birthday and we had a great time! We got sat pretty quickly and Natalie was very sweet and attentive to us the entire time! She had great recommendations, The coconut shrimp was amazing and my husband enjoyed the chicken sandwich. My mother had a great time and it was a great atmosphere. The manager in the front was also very polite to us and the family :) The service was genuine and it was a great birthday lunch <3 :) thank you!

Awesome little restaurant in Islamorada! We were recommended this place by a friend of ours and are so glad we stopped here. The breakfast was amazing and my son really liked the Chicken sandwich as well. We stayed in Marathon so we didn’t make it here until we left the keys. It was a little busy that day but well worth the wait. We had 7 people which was about the max for them but even larger parties they were able to split up and accommodate. I would definitely go back if we got the chance!

I loved everything about this place! The food was plentiful, well prepared and tasty! Big selection on the menu for both breakfast and lunch. I had a hard time choosing what to eat! Loved the tuna fish sandwich as it wasn’t drowning in mayonnaise. Burgers were great and so were the fries and coleslaw. I will be back again.

Was staying next door to Mangrove Mike's on vacation and saw it was well reviewed and decided to give it a shot. Food was excellent. Server had her rear end hanging out and a crop top on. Service was lack luster. Drinks sat empty and when refilled gave my husband water instead of sprite and refilled my diet coke with regular. We felt like an inconvenience though we really asked for nothing. Key lime pie pancakes were delicious as were the tater tots.

This is a great place for breakfast and lunch. Portions are big, so be prepared! The banana bread French toast is amazing as is the cinnamon roll version. Prices are comparable to most places in the Keys.

We had such a great experience, food was great, dishes were big and generous, the place was packed, and everyone seemed to have a good time! We loved it! Definitely will come back when close by

Mangrove Mike’s generously supported our group of 25 veterans during the Fish With A Hero event, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. The service was exceptional, the food was well-prepared, and the coffee cups were consistently full. We extend our sincere gratitude to Mangrove Mike’s for their outstanding hospitality and for honoring our veterans with such care and respect.

This place was so good we came twice in the three days we stayed down here. They have a French toast sampler (that you can get gluten free) that was the best thing I’ve eaten for breakfast in a long time. And the omelettes. Stuffed to overflowing with your meats and cheeses. Not a huge place so make sure you plan some time to wait. But it was well worth it. Key lime pancakes the second time(also in a gluten free options) were bomb.

We had breakfast here, and the breakfast burrito was plentiful. Bring your appetite if you order this dish. The atmosphere was great, you can sit inside or outside l - there are plenty of tables. The avocado toast was also brilliant. I will be coming back 2 or 3 more times on this 6-day trip here in Islamorada!

We had a great experience here today! My kids enjoyed their kids pancake plate (1 pancake, 1 egg, bacon and fruit for $8 was perfect for them), I enjoyed the Greek chicken salad wrap with a side of lobster bisque with pita chips. It was fantastic, a great light, yet filling brunch. My husband enjoyed his wrap and pasta salad as well. They had a beautifully tempting display of baked goods as well as a nice selection of gifts. The service was fast and friendly! We enjoyed sitting outside! I would definitely be sure to make a stop here!

If you’re looking for a great brunch spot, you have to stop by Midway Café! The food is amazing, and they offer both indoor and outdoor dining with plenty of delicious options. I had the omelette and the almond croissant both were incredible! Their menu has everything from breakfast and lunch to coffee and smoothies. Whether you’re staying in Islamorada or just passing through on your way to Key West, this place is a must-visit. Simply delicious!

My and family and I were staying at Islamorada for several days and checked out Midway Cafe and Coffee Bar for breakfast. I loved the bright, colorful eclectic decor, and local art. The service was good and the food was great. We liked Midway Cafe so much that we came went there a few times during our stay. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great place to grab lunch/breakfast. My family stopped here on our way back from Key West to Homestead. Has both outdoor and indoor seating. Lots of food & drink options as well. Very fresh food too. I got the ‘Everyone’s Favorite Sandwich’ and it was delicious. My dad got the club wrap and loved it. Right off the road. 10/10 recommend.

We stopped here on our way out of the keys and it was one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. We had the green egg sandwich, single pancake, coffee and my husband made his own sandwich. Free refills on coffee, superb food! 10/10 definitely stop. Also the most reasonably priced spot!

This was the CUTEST little cafe. Excellent breakfast, the espresso is delicious. The wait staff is so friendly and sweet. A must stop.

The food was mediocre I thought. The lobster nor the steak had much flavor. My wife said her fish tacos were really good. The staff was friendly. It was outside dining and the flies were bad. The view was amazing. We all thought it would be a great place to go back and have drinks with friends. Not a dinner destination that we would return to.

Did dinner here on vacation. Our 2nd time dining here and highly recommend. They had a lobster special where it was fried and accompanied by a mango salsa. Yum. Macaroni and cheese was a bit plain but delicious (you can add pulled pork, lobster, shrimp or bacon and jalapeño for an upcharge.

We checked out this place recently and we enjoyed it. Our waitress was Amy and she was very nice and efficient. I got the burger/fries ($20.45) and my wife got the fish tacos ($18.95). My burger was wonderful and so were the fries. My wife said that fish tacos lacked flavor. The view was nice and parking was easy.

View at sunset is magical 😍 Now about the food! Disappointing lobster. Waitress had difficulties with separating the bill. Also waitress added 20% tip for party of 8. That was fine but she was disappointed that we didn't tip more. She actually came out and asked what she did wrong. Not good. So watch your bill for sure.

Great little place tucked away, right on the water in Islemorada. Not quite in the hidden gem genre, but most certainly an off the beaten path stop if you're on your way to Key West. Right on the water, all tables offer a great view. Service is friendly and courteous. Food and drinks are all excellent. Definitely a recommended stop.

Food was fantastic! My husband had the blackened snapper and I had the coconut shrimp. The service was great and the view was even better! Definitely a dining highlight to our trip

The perfect “Keys” vibe. Beautiful waterfront setting for sunset views. Bar feels like something from a Jimmy Buffet song. Bartender was amazing: friendly, moving a hundred miles an hour and fun to watch. And it wasn’t even busy. Conch fritters were perfectly done and our fish was also fresh and nicely prepared. This isn’t fine dining, but delicious and such a fun setting. My girlfriend (in her 50’s) grew up coming here and it was so great to see nothing has really changed since she was a kid. Places like this are what make the Keys so special and unique. May they be here another 50 years!

Food was ok, service took a little bit of time to seat us (around 20 minutes). Inside was relatively empty by time we were seated since it was late. Waitress was nice. Outside seating has great view onto bay, though we opted for indoor seating since it was ready sooner. None of the entrees were very good, all mediocre at best. Fun desserts, on oddly large plates. Probably wouldn’t come again.

Had a delicious lunch to end our trip to the Florida Keys and the Island Grill did not disappoint! The service was wonderful, the view was beautiful and the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this restaurant if your stopping by in or out of the Keys! My family and I can't wait to go there again next time we are in the Keys.

This laid-back waterside restaurant boasts a fantastic atmosphere with a refreshing breeze, offering bar seating, indoor dining, and ample outdoor tables. Visited on a July weekday, it was quiet, and I was promptly greeted and seated. The restrooms were clean, and the venue was well-maintained. Drink enthusiasts will appreciate the extensive options at both the indoor and outdoor bars. I ordered the Thai coconut curry grouper, served with two filets and rice. The fish was perfectly cooked and authentically grouper. The rice was parboiled, though jasmine would have been preferable. The curry lacked spice and was somewhat bland. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with a great vibe. I’ll return to try another dish.

I don’t know how we slept on Island Grill for so long! Such a hidden gem! Service in general was great from the moment we walked in. Jessica- our waiter- was amazing and so welcoming. Our food was fresh and delish! We can’t wait to come back!

I'm so glad I found this place! The food was fresh and delicious, and the location was perfect! We sat in the 'open-air' dining area and were 5 feet from the water. Boats can dock just feet from the entrance. The staff were friendly and the place is dog friendly too. I recommended the lobster salad served over a tostado and the fish tacos.

I absolutely loved the tender steak sandwich — it was cooked perfectly and full of flavor! The homemade key lime pie was my favorite dessert here in Islamorada, hands down. Shane was the best server we’ve had on our trip — super attentive, friendly, and made our meal even better. Highly recommend!

Get the fried cheesecake and you will experience heaven! Nike is the best server I've ever had. He's such a fun spirit!

Yummy local spot for breakfast or lunch in Islamorada. The menu is huge and all of the food is made to order by the server and cook, who is very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend the crepes, which were warm and tasty. South Beach was pretty delicious but would change the gelato flavor to something less artificial tasting. Pastries were also tasty! Sandwiches were okay. Would probably come again for breakfast.

Bitton Bistro Cafe is a delightful find! The food is consistently fresh and flavorful, the coffee is excellent, and the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. Perfect for a relaxed meal or a quick bite. Highly recommended

An excellent and quaint spot for brunch! We got one of their savory crepes, a quiche, and a croissant and were not disappointed. The quiche was served with a salad that had the most delicious balsamic dressing we’ve ever had. In addition to the delicious food, the atmosphere was wonderful and welcoming. The man working was so kind and took great care of us. 10/10 would recommend!

This local road side cafe was recommended by a friend who's parents live down the road and it did not disappoint. My wife and I had a couple of crepes and a cappuccino. It's not fine dining but a friendly roadside cafe. I see a lot of reviews complaining about the gratuity being included, but this is standard practice in the area because there are so many foreign tourists who do not tip. It's the same way in Miami.

I have a weakness for crepes but I also need protein in the morning. This place has it all. Espresso drinks made well. Savory crepes, I got the Miami that had turkey (I switched to ham), spinach, and Gruyère cheese. So many choices , huge, well made and very authentic.

This is the most authentic French breakfast I have ever had. The crustless quiche was huge. I had a hot breve hazelnut and it was 10/10. The crepes are very good and very large. Bring your appetite.

Unbelievable rip-off!!!! we wanted to do a brief stop, my two kids of 15 and 12 years and myself and have a coffee. We decided also to have some croissant, I had to latte and my daughter an iced latte. Originally we wanted to take it away, then we decided to stay in order not to leave all the croissant remains in our car. I was quite shocked about the total amount, without being asked he added $6.50 as a tip although we picked it up at the counter and there was no service. In my opinion, the complete rip off Almost 40 bucks for two coffees and three croissants.

This was our second visit. 1st time was just for drinks and they had a great selection & friendly staff. Went back tonight for dinner and it was excellent every thing was cooked to perfection . We will be back!

Delicious lunch at one of our favorite restaurants. The blackened shrimp tacos were perfect!

Local gem - Always great! Don’t forget to check out the specials board, which changes daily. You can find updates on their Facebook page. Italian Wednesday specials are my FAVORITE. I’ve gone for lunch, dinner, and often take out and never had a meal I didn’t enjoy. The owner and staff are always kind and attentive.

Great little corner spot. The food is always good. The service is always exceptional. There's some nice wines if you like California style.

Nestled at Mile Marker 88.5 on Plantation Key, City Hall Café & Wine Bar is a delightful culinary haven that captures the essence of the Florida Keys. This family-owned establishment offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere where both locals and visitors feel right at home . The menu is a testament to their commitment to quality, featuring a diverse array of dishes that cater to various palates. From fresh, locally caught seafood like blackened mahi tacos and shrimp scampi to hearty classics such as veal piccata and eggplant Parmesan, every dish is crafted with care and flavor .

I have had many dishes from here. The tuna sub and the pasta salad was awesome. For dinner I have had the shrimp Diablo which was so good,spicy but in a good way. Also I have had the chicken parmesan. All portions are very generous was able to get multiple meals from one dinner. Oh and let me tell you the bread is amazing. So good. Family members have gotten the blackened shrimp tacos and loved them. That said if you just want a great burger then come here perfect every time. Great flavors too all the dishes. Great place to eat lunch or dinner. They even deliver and the delivery guy was very nice . Can't say enough about the food they seem to hit it out of the park every time. One more thing giant cookie to go with you lunch. Or save it for when you have coffee. I had s'mores cookie it was a meal all by its self. Big enough to share if you really love the one your with. Lol

Really good food and they were open and honest about not being able to handle my daughter’s dairy allergy which we appreciate.

LOVED this lil "grab & go" coffee shop!!! Very charming and relaxing, and surrounded by similarly charming local "Mom & Pop" shops in Village Square here. I stopped in as I was early to be Wedding DJ&MC for an Islamorada wedding. Ya gotta stop by! Well worth a visit, as it's a relaxing break. Zana was very helpful and kind. Wish they had more menu options like their slightly up the road Tavernier location, but it's more of a grab & go concept. Relaxing outdoor garden. Highly recommend!!

Waste of time & 10$ 😭 Coffee sucked 🥲The girl didn’t tamp espresso at all.. Kinda tastes like sweet water. I tried to be nice when I asked about it but they got mad at me for saying anything. The ice melted instantly because they did it in a weird order (iced the milk) it’s whatever. No offense to them, BUT GO TO MIDWAY CAFE INSTEAD !!!!!! People are starving places but it was one of those times you splurge on a coffee and you get it and think “well this sucks”. Train your staff better, not even for me (i’ll never stop by here again), do it for everyone else 🙏🏻

It’s a beautiful place, this is the second Cafe Moka in the keys and even though the cafe itself is very small, it is nested in a group of different little vendors, making it cozy and pleasant. It was really hot this weekend and we only could stay a couple of minutes but will comeback when it’s a bit colder or at least 85 or under. I had a dirty matcha (cold matcha with an espresso shot) and was great but didn’t have anything to eat (too hot to eat outside) but everything looked and smelled so good! Will return as this place is cute!

Came to Islamorada for a bachelorette party and wound up coming to Cafe Moka 3 days in a row. The latte was delicious and the service was great! Didn’t get any food, but I’m sure it was amazing!

We got a ham and cheese croissant out of the fridge there and two coffees. I asked if she could heat up the croissant (there is an over right behind her, all she needs to do is put it in and press start). She said I am closing soon (in 30 min) so my ovens are all off. That’s seriously bad service and the croissant tasted old.

I’m a half year resident in Islamorada and used to travel Cafe Moka in Key Largo for their coffee, almond croissant and salads. Now they are located in the back of Village Square in Islamorada so we go there to pick up baked goods and coffee. Almond croissant and poppy seed muffins were so fresh and good. Beautiful outdoor seating in lush landscape.

Great little spot. Cold brew was tasty and strong. Feta/spinach pastry was very warm and tasty. Baristas were also very friendly and kindly answered our questions on the menu. Definitely will be back.

This was a great place to eat right at the restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing. I would give it five star for the food. It was a great environment and we got to sit right out in the ocean side beach to look at the Atlantic I had inside or outside dining we chose outsidethe staff was nice friendly, quick and courteous

We had a late lunch and waiting for sunset cruise that departs from here. Food was phenomenal! Flavors were amazing! We sat outdoors with tbe sound of the beach soothing us. Service was great as well. We had blackened steak and shrimp and some veg

We were hoping for the perfect date night during our stay and my hubby surprised me with a reservation for dinner. We were seated right away but our table was really lacking and we didn’t have a view of anything but bushes. If they could be trimmed a little lower, the entire ocean could be in full view. We requested another table but the hostess stated that this is where the next rotation was being seated. However, the live acoustic music in the background was beautiful and welcoming. The menu was a real let down, it had very few option and all of which had to be “enhanced” which is just another upcharge. I ended up selecting a salad, “enhanced” with chicken for more than $36. It was good, but not great. The rib-eye was AMAZING, probably the best we’d ever had. The sear was perfect and the glaze delicious. It was just a piece of meat unless you “enhance” it. So we “enhanced” a side of garlic fries. Meh. Dinner for two was over $130 not including the tip and we both left not quite full. Our server was very attentive and kind, she really did a great job. The hostess and the busser were loud and a little obnoxious in their conversations, but we were literally sitting right by them. When the tables were being cleared, chairs were dragged, dishes were loudly stacked. It reminded me of a bustling cafe than fine dining. Patrons and families walked through with bathing suits and beach gear. It was all just a little off, not the atmosphere we were anticipating. More than likely, we won’t be back.

It’s Cheeca..it’s amazing! Had a little snack while hanging out at the pool. Buffalo teriyaki wings were the BEST wings I’ve ever eaten. Berry happy mojito was sooo good.

DO NOT DINE HERE. Where to start. From the moment my husband and I walked in, we got a bad taste in our mouth. The hostess did not greet us, smile, anything. It seemed that we were inconveniencing her with our presence. Instead, I said hello, and informed her we had reservations. She was looking over my shoulder the whole time, maybe looking for her other hostess(who had both AirPods in the entire time we were there)? Not sure, but it didn’t seem like she knew what she was doing. She asked for our name, but didn’t ever look at her ipad to confirm anything. We called previously to reserve a waterside table, which was not available when we arrived. I moved past the table issue & tried not to let it get to me, even though it is our anniversary and I called specifically to get that arranged for us. Then it took probably 10 minutes for our server to stop by the table. She also seemed to be talking to a table for the first time. We got our order in, and then waited AN HOUR for a medium filet & fried fish to arrive. That’s when we drew the line. The potatoes were ice cold, my filet was cut into pieces… and there was a VERY obvious black hair on my plate. We waited a good 5 minutes before the server came to check on us, and obviously it’s not her fault so we asked to speak to a manager. We could see him the whole time all of our issues were going on, because he was standing at a table with an older couple, who also had many problems. Our poor server tried to get his attention for at least 5 minutes, but he didn’t even look up at her. What a shame. I am not exaggerating, three other tables had problems with their food, out of the maybe fifteen tables in the whole restaurant. As someone who has worked in the service industry their whole life, do better. What a joke of a restaurant this is. DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE. The hype does not match what you are getting. The WORST service I have ever had. One star is more than I’d give this establishment. 0 stars for 0 dinner. Left hungry and went to Chef Michael’s, where the service has been phenomenal from the moment we stepped on property!

Best view on the town for dinner! Had an wonderful date night with girlfriend for our first evening in The Keys. If you love seafood, try the octopus for a appetizer and I highly recommend the scallop and shrimp entree. Our server Matt was incredibly attentive and knew the menu very well. The desserts we tried were outrageously delicious too. Chocolate lovers get the hazelnut chocolate bomb and of course the key lime pie is a must in the keys. All this while listening to live guitar on the oceanfront. Reservations were easy to make online. They have a valet option for parking. All staff is friendly at the resort and gladly answered any questions we had. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Great hotel restaurant! Views are spectacular and the wildlife is an added bonus!

What an awesome experience! Just the grounds alone are so cool and full of fun little photo ops, it has a very chill island vibe feel. Feeding the tarpon was a cool experience as well, earlier in the day there were even nurse sharks near the dock. The restaurant was perfect! We got to sit right next to the water and the locals even shared some of their knowledge with us. Our waiters name was Chris (I believe, if I’m wrong I apologize) and he was top notch! Just one of the coolest nicest guys around. He recommended dishes for us and made sure we were very well taken care of. There were some mosquitoes and noseeum’s out and he even offered us some bug spray. Our food was beyond phenomenal, I can’t say enough about it. We had everything from shrimp, to local caught fish, to chicken and it was all perfection. The young girl in the shop was so sweet and even introduced us to the manager (a cat). Everything about this place was just perfect. We will definitely be back everytime we’re in the area!

Great stop in Islamorada! Can grab a beer and feed the tarpon which are huge! Very exciting for all ages. Entry is cheap and fully worth it. Also little shops and just great vibes all around. A must see! Went end of October so it was not busy at all.

Really cool stop along the highway to get out and eat, rest your feet, and see some cool stuff. Feeding the sharks was a really cool experience. You can buy a bucket of fish and it might seem gimmicky on the website, but I did find it worth it. Especially if you have kids, it’s a great interactive experience and memory. There are tons of shops and ice cream trucks and a restaurant if you’re looking for food or just a change of scenery and some shade.

Robbie’s is a must-stop in the Keys if you’re looking for adventure and a true local vibe. Feeding the giant tarpon is the highlight—an experience you won’t forget. They leap right out of the water and it’s exciting for both kids and adults. Beyond that, you can rent kayaks, go on snorkeling or fishing trips, or just enjoy the waterfront views. The place also has small shops and stalls around, which makes it fun to walk around, grab a souvenir, or pick up something local. The on-site restaurant and bar are lively, serving good food and drinks with a laid-back Keys atmosphere. It can get busy, but that’s part of the charm. Overall, Robbie’s is more than just a stop—it’s a full experience with activities, food, shopping, and views all in one spot.

Popped in as had seen good reviews. Didn’t disappoint. Glad we stopped, lovely few market stalls / shops to look around then paid to see tarpons being fed and pelicans stealing the fish. Didn’t eat here but food smelled lovely.

So I have to say feeding the tarpon at Robbie‘s was absolutely an amazing experience. The food was good but Taste like every other restaurant nothing stood out to be oh I go back for this food I would definitely go back to feed the tarpon to take friends to see it and the little shops they have out. Front of the restaurant are really awesome. Just the whole experience in general was absolutely amazing but I wouldn’t tell you to just stop there for the food, but definitely go check out the tarpon you’ll have a blast.

This was recommended to us by one of the locals. It was absolutely brilliant and I totally recommend. You buy a bucket of fish for $5 and you can feed the tarpon. Great fun. You can stop for food, drink, browse shops. A definite tourist stop recommendation

They are known for their muffins and I can see why. I had the Harriet breakfast which came with one of their famous muffin. I tried their key lime pie one. Hot, moist, truly a super yummy muffin. Place only op3n from 6 am to 3 pm and yes sometimes parking can be tricky. But so worth the wait. Small, always packed house.

I saw this restaurant on YouTube before my trip, I'm glad I did! I had the biscuits and gravy, full order (you can get a 1/2 order). I could only eat 1/2, lol. It was delicious 😋. We also shared a piece of key lime pie and took 2 muffins to go. Everything was great. The service was top notch too. It's a quaint, tropical location. Totally worth stopping!

Great little breakfast spot! Service is friendly and super efficient. Harriette’s is known for muffins (a huge selection of flavors) and biscuits. While the muffins were tempting, we opted for an omelette and a pancake. They were large enough to share and were excellent. A biscuit that came with the omelette was more cake-like than flaky. It was good, just not my preferred biscuit type. I’d definitely stop here again and would try it for lunch too.

The food here is fantastic. Highly recommend the shrimp and grits. Not too spicy and perfect consistency for the grits. The shrimp are cooked to perfection. Maybe my new favorite dish. A bit crowded in the mornings considering the small space. At times it can feel warm, but it’s worth it considering The quality of food and service. The muffins are next level. Highly recommend the guava muffin.

We’ve explored so many great spots to eat around Key Largo, but this place’s breakfast truly stands out as unforgettable. Carlos’s Huevos Rancheros, with the chorizo nestled underneath, is simply phenomenal — the flavors are perfectly balanced, and the dish is a genuine delight. They make their own hot sauce, which complements the rancheros perfectly, striking the ideal harmony between heat and flavor. Their avocado toast, topped with creamy avocado, scrambled eggs, and fresh, delicious tomatoes, is served over their homemade biscuits and is absolutely unforgettable. Don’t miss their Key Lime muffins — they’re divine. Trust me, you’ll want to thank me for this recommendation!

Small, but powerful muffins!!! This breakfast, brunch, lunch spot was amazing!! Had steak and eggs, hubby and daughter had traditional eggs and pancakes. The food was wonderful, the service/cooking was super fast. The staff wore shirts that made us laugh, STUD MUFFIN, was my favorite! The upside down pineapple muffin eas to die for!! My hubby had pumpkin and daughter chocolate chip. There was so many to pick from!!!! The service was amazingly friendly and kind! Didn’t try the pink mimosa or the Benedict’s, but we will definitely be back!

Fantastic breakfast diner. The breakfast burrito was immense!! Delicious as well. Great service, friendly staff and reasonably priced for the Key. Popular with locals so always a good sign. Definitely recommend - will visit again if in the area.

Quaint and delightful little coffee shop along the highway to Key West. The interior design is coastal and bright and refreshing. There is a good assortment of pastries/baked goods and they had a good range of drink options as well. Service was friendly and quick. The outside tables are so cute with umbrellas and assorted foliage and greenery. Beautiful location

Stopped by Cafe Moka in Tavernier this morning for a Java pick me up… cute location in a small house located on US 1. Staff were friendly, and service was great. We had a couple of large lattes, which were good, but could have been more hot when served. We also ordered one of the almond croissants, which was delicious, but a bit overcooked in our opinion. All in all, good coffee, and good breakfast eats…. they also have a nice selection of lunch items as well. Recommend Cafe Moka!

Fab little cafe. There is plenty of parking available outside. The cafe itself is so cute, really nicely decorated. We had a Matcha Latte and a Cortado as well as an Almond Croissant. It was all really lovely! Staff was great too. Would recommend!

The cafe is in an old building (church). Went for coffees and an almond croissant. Nice menu selection. Interior space was nice with a cool Instagrammable wall\sofa combo. We sat out front, but the table was super wobbly and the traffic was a bit noisy so id recommend sitting in the garden out back or on the side.

The spot is so quaint ans quiet. There is a wide variety of coffee drink options and the pastries ans delicious. The staff is so kind and patient. We loved the cold brew, macchiato, and crossiants.

We discovered this lovely cafe on our trip to the Keys. The staff was super nice. My cappuccino and sandwich was amazing. We also recommend the kombucha that is locally brewed in Florida! Coming from a kombucha drinker ourselves 😊

We love this place!! We come to Islamorada every year for our anniversary, and we usually go to that location, but this trip, we switched to the Tavernier location since the Islamorada location ran out of quiche at 9:00 AM, and the staff was not very pleasant. The Cafe Moka here in Tavernier is amazing! The staff is friendly and helpful, service is quick, & the atmosphere is so fun. We always get a caramel macchiato, quiche Lorraine, and an almond croissant. They always taste amazing, and we are never disappointed. Coming to Cafe Moka every morning is one of our favorite parts of our trip!

Great mom & pop place down in the keys. Me and a couple of buddies rode in this morning and they treated us great. We went with their recommendations and loved it. The Hammy Hash croissant and the Bacon egg cheese bagel were outstanding. The owner also gave us a bagel to try while we waited. Highly recommend

Ahhhhh-mazing! Everything Asiago bagel with BEC is to DIE FOR!!! My husband is from NY and he said it’s the best bagel sandwich he’s ever had! Atmosphere is super casual and very chill. Highly recommend.

Asiago everything bagel, jalapeño bacon cheddar, cinnamon, incredible selection of NYC quality bagels!! Exactly what I needed to start my day. Excellent service, on a busy morning I still received my order quickly. Highly recommend this little spot for breakfast.

Busy for a reason... well worth the wait! The latte and iced coffee were delicious. The bagels are huge, come with two eggs and whatever meat you choose. I also recommend adding cream cheese to it! The bagel is super soft and you can tell it's fresh! Great service, they were busting their butts in there and they did a great job!

Best bagel I've ever eaten! Hot, toasted everything bagel with a smear of cream cheese- incredible. Magnificent. Indulgent. Wow!!

Love this spot. Great service. Colton was the nicest and polite. Yummy bagels and good coffee.

Killer bagels! We stopped by here after leaving the Florida keys and was extremely happy we stopped. Numerous people recommended this establishment to get breakfast and I wasn’t disappointed. They make everything fresh there and got numerous pastries to go for the ride home. Next time we are in the Florida Keys we will definitely stop there and enjoy their fine pastries.

We had the most amazing stay at the Islander Resort! The property is beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly captures that laid-back island vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The food was delicious, the ocean breeze was refreshing, and the whole experience was effortless and relaxing. We can’t wait to come back to our little piece of paradise in Islamorada!

My husband and I had an amazing vacation at Islander Resort! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and took care of every detail. Our room was comfortable, clean, and had beautiful views of the water. The resort itself is well-maintained, with plenty of amenities to enjoy, from the pool to the activity tiki hut with literally anything you would want to do. We loved riding bikes, fishing off the pier, being able to relax and unwind in such a peaceful setting, and the location was perfect for exploring local shops and restaurants. Every interaction with the staff was friendly and helpful, making our stay truly stress-free. We also went right down the street to Cheeca Lodge and Resort and jumped on a boat for a sandbar tour! It was a highlight and so fun and beautiful! Highly recommend Islander Resort for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway, it’s the perfect spot for a couples’ vacation! And a special shoutout to Sarah, who made booking and our stay extra special!

We chose The Islander for a family Wedding Celebration. The staff was wonderful. From check in to departure everyone I encountered went above and beyond. The General Manager Joy and Event planner Jennifer made the whole experience a pleasure. The resort is remodeled and has lots to do. It offers a lot of activities that are included as well. Paddle boards, pickleball, bikes, kayaks, yoga, fishing, bonfires, movie night at the pool and a putting green. They have a shuttle that will take you within a few miles of the resort The beds are so comfortable that I want to know what brand mattress it is. The rooms have impact doors and windows which makes it so quiet. The grounds are beautiful and pristine. Thet have two EV chargers. They have several places to eat onsite. I cannot recommend it enough.

Great experience the front desk associate is amazing! I wish I recalled her name but she had short blonde hair. Her customer service was over the top. The food was amazing and the manager was also very accommodating. The overall resort had every accommodation for kids bikes, pool, volleyball, and more. The pool area was beautiful! I highly recommend this resort for families or couples!

Sarah at the front desk was amazing.She was knowledgeable and very helpful. The room was paradise. The pool bar was accommodating and the fresh squeezed juice in the heat was a balm in the heat. Their activities were fun and we truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Ralph for the hospitality.We did the Sunset cruise, highly recommended.

We had originally planned to stay elsewhere, but my wife has a severe mold allergy and the other resort couldn’t accommodate us. After checking a couple of our past go-to spots without success, we ended up at Islander Resort—where we were greeted by EXTREMELY friendly staff. Angela and Monica went above and beyond by ofering to show us a couple of rooms so we could be certain my wife wouldn’t have any issues. The very first room we saw was perfect—spotless, fresh, and absolutely no mold—so no need to look any further. From there, everything only got better. The resort itself is beautiful, and the staff are some of the friendliest we’ve ever encountered. Everyone greeted us warmly and genuinely cared about how our stay was going. Madison kept the drinks strong and perfectly balanced at Tides Bar, and the food at Drift exceeded our expectations. There’s so much to do throughout the resort, and the views are simply breathtaking. We absolutely could not have asked for a better experience.

Most beautiful resort we have ever been to. We got an upgraded pool cabana room and it was absolutely amazing! So much to do and included on the property! Most amount of included activities at any resort we have been to.

This place is absolutely perfect! This is probably the best resort we've ever been too. The grounds had everything with fantastic location and everything was extremely clean and well maintained. The service was outstanding from the front desk to the workers on the beach that carved up coconuts to drink or set up kayaks to get in the water with. We went with our 2 toddlers (2 and 3 years old). It was the perfect vacation w them. They had beach toys ready to go, 2 playgrounds, and lawn games to play with. Often times it felt like we had the whole resort to ourselves. The 1 bedroom Villa was spacious, extremely clean, 2 TVs, refrigerator, robes, and a beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean!

Our recent stay at The Islands of Islamorada was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, every detail was perfect. The property is stunning—immaculately maintained, beautifully designed, and incredibly peaceful. The villas were luxurious and spacious, with everything we needed and more. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. Whether we were relaxing by the pool, enjoying the private beach, or just taking in the gorgeous views, everything about this place exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful family vacation at the Islands of Islamorada. The villa was gorgeous and perfect for our needs. The view was beautiful and the grounds were meticulously maintained. We enjoyed relaxing on the property, hitting biodegradable golf balls off the pier, taking in the beautiful sunrises, and morning yoga on the Friday of our stay. Staff was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend!

From arriving until departure, this place was excellent! Staff is amazing and attentative. Couldn't be any better. Room and view from room was amazing. Really enjoyed what they had to offer. Enjoyed the quiet atmosphere they provided. Grounds were beautiful with plenty to do if desired. Plenty of great food and stores within close access. Highly recommend!

I don’t have the words to explain just how beautiful this resort is. It’s so relaxing, has the best views, close proximity to restaurants and all kinds of amazing things to do. The staff is exceptional; they really are the cherry on top. Overall, it was a beautiful experience.

What a beautiful, tranquil retreat! The resort and service were top notch, and all the staff we encountered were super friendly and helpful. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! It was perfect for a relaxing, luxurious, peaceful vacation spot.

Five-Star Review: Islands of Islamorada The Islands of Islamorada is a true gem nestled in the heart of the Florida Keys. As a real estate agent, I had the privilege of touring this stunning property with a client, and I was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of this exclusive, gated resort community. Located just off the Old Highway at Mile Marker 82.7, this enclave perfectly combines luxury, privacy, and investment potential. The gleaming white architecture of the 22 stand-alone villas and Ocean House suites is a striking contrast against the lush landscaping of mature coconut palms and vibrant bougainvillea. The serene Atlantic Ocean views and the private beach access make this a paradise for those seeking both relaxation and adventure. Each villa is thoughtfully designed to maximize outdoor space while maintaining privacy, making it ideal for multi-generational vacations or high-end rentals. The interiors exude seaside chic elegance, with light-filled spaces that perfectly frame the surrounding ocean blues and coconut forests. As a Realtor specializing in real estate in Islamorada, I was particularly impressed by the variety of amenities this property offers. Two sparkling swimming pools, a private marina, state-of-the-art fitness center, and pickleball courts cater to every lifestyle need, while the community’s private beach offers a rare retreat. For those considering an investment, the villas start at $4,950,000 and are eligible for vacation rentals, making this an excellent opportunity for generating income in a highly desirable location. The combination of luxury, location, and functionality truly sets this property apart. This is truly a five-star property for anyone seeking the perfect blend of leisure, luxury, and investment potential!

Amazing experience here at this Starbucks in the Keys. Beautiful with lots of outdoor seating, the shop was very well organized and stocked up. I had fantastic service from Latisha, so kind, patient and attentive. If you want a delicious drink this stop should be on your radar!!

Latisha was amazing! She heard it was my birthday and made me the most amazing Grande Salted Carmel Cold Foam Cold Brew. The crew was engaging and having a good time. That’s why we purchase overpriced coffee- the atmosphere! Great job ladies.

Love this place! Latisha made a fresh pour over for the best sunsera coffee especially for us! Wonderful service, great team, good mood, good vibes. Always stopp here while on the Keys. CU soon

This Starbucks has one of the most stunning views I’ve seen from any coffee shop. Whether you’re grabbing a seat by the window or just stopping in for a quick drink, the natural light and scenery outside make it a calm and refreshing place to recharge. What truly set my visit apart was the amazing service from Latisha. She was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive, the kind of person who makes your day better with just a smile. She handled everything with care and even took the time to make sure my drink was just right. You can tell she really enjoys what she does, and it shows. Latisha brought such positive energy to the whole experience, and it’s people like her that make you want to keep coming back. Highly recommend this location for the view and the vibes! 😆☕️🎊

Coffee was good as always. Ordered 2 coffees . My wife's coffee came quickly but my coffee was sitting on the counter by the coffee machine while 2 of the staff members were in a conversation and ,I guess, forgot about me even though I was standing at the pick up counter. A third employee came, saw me standing there and asked if I needed anything. She was the one that then gave me my coffee.

Great location the best staff of ladies working here as I was lost since I'm not a regular customer. They immediately noticed and helped me out and guided me in the right direction. Made my iced latte taste amazing. This team of ladies is a great team, I feel management should really consider giving them all a raise they deserve it.

Nicest Starbucks in the keys?! Great clean location, very friendly staff. S/o to Lataisha for her great customer service. We'll be back!
