Nice cafe off the main drag. Had the cubano sandwich and iced cafe con leche. Both were very good. Service was fairly quick.

Worst Café con Leche I've had in Key West. paid six dollars and ended up throwing it out. gave three stars instead of one for great service.

Super cute and quaint togo spot. The bread is fantastic. I ordered the egg sandwich and it was just egg and bread but it was so good and held its heat very well. My husband got the mixed cuban sandwich with no tomatoes and that had a lot of flavor. We also got a guava pastry that was so light and flaky. They are very quick, I'd love to try more of their menu.

AVOID. Enjoyed the atmosphere. Young lady seemed nice enough, but addressed me with somewhat condescending “buddy”. I inquired how much chocolate they used, which she said 2 pumps. I asked for 1-1/2 pump. First mocha was a bit sweet, somewhat milky, and hardly robust flavor of coffee. Went ahead and ordered another mocha with less chocolate (1 pump), not as hot and 2 guava pastries. We ate are pastries although a bit greasy. Afterwards, my wife sipped the second mocha, handed it to me, and asked me to try. I took a sip and SPIT it out on the sidewalk! SCORCHING HOT! I returned to the window and explained to the young lady. She stood there… dumbfounded! I reiterated. She replied, and? I reiterated. “Oh! We can make another. No problem.” I’ve never encountered such attitude. We walked off. AVOID this place.

Extremely slow window service. Restaurant is under renovation. After about 50 minutes the sandwiches arrived, the order was wrong and cold. Find another place unless you have lots of time.

Takes about 20 minutes to get a couple coffees. But it’s worth the wait.

Yes yes yes YASSSS!!!! Delicious Cuban coffee from an amazing little spot. The owner was so wonderful he made sure my dogs had water, (even put ice in it since it was a sunny morning), he even made sure I drank water too- - lol I got a little carried away with having a few too many delicious coffees in one sitting ‍‍. The people that come for their morning cup seem to all have an upbeat yet chill vibe, just like the crew there. It's not a restaurant but has a couple chairs and it's great people watching! I will be back before I leave the keys for some more of that perfect Cuban espresso.

Take a break, sit outside for a cafecuto or an iced coffee, and a Cubano. No better day possible. Sandwiches soooo large, bring a big appetite!
