Stopped in here for lunch after visiting the oldest house in Key West, Thursday February 5, 2026. Indoor & outdoor seating. Serving food 8am-2:30pm and 5-10pm daily. We sat at the outdoor bar. Distinct Caribbean vibe located in the historic Bahama Village. Daria brought us drinks & menus. Lots of breakfast & lunch choices here. We started with a Bloody Maria ($13) & a Hot Irishman coffee ($12) - both were excellent. Lot's of breakfast choices from fancy pancakes to various eggs Benedict breakfast dishes. Shrimp & Grits - Key West Shrimp Sautéed in White Wine. Butter and Scallions over Grits and White Cheddar w/ fresh fruit ($19) & Andy's Grilled Sharp Cheddar Cheese & Tomato Sandwich w/ potatoes ($13) - again both were excellent. Very relaxing atmosphere on a somewhat busy lunch time. There is also a gift shop featuring their baked desserts and the usual tourist souveniers & clothing. Thank you again to Daria for excellent service & to Andy and his kitchen staff. p.s. metered street parking is limited in ths busy area. Reservations highly recommened for dinner 5-10pm daily.

We went to Blue Heaven after hearing about indulgent brunch and some of the best key lime pie in Key West. One out of two was correct. The brunch was delicious. Both Husband and I ordered the special omelette, with lobster, bacon, and tomato. The dish was rich and delicious, with an entire lobster tail and plenty of bacon. To top it off, the omelette was accompanied by a slice of banana bread. We were not impressed by the key lime pie. Although the pie looks impressive, topped by a huge mound of meringue, it tasted a bit stale. Its consistency was heavy, and the meringue flavorless. Don't let the pie, however, stop you from going to Blue Heaven. The brunch is great service is friendly, and you can't beat the atmosphere, eating outdoors with the chickens and artwork. Tip: arrive early to avoid a long wait. read more

Read online that this was a must visit in key west and have to agree. The set up is nothing fancy - plastic chairs under umbrellas. It is pleasant ambiance still with lots of trees and shade (and chickens haha). Service was a bit slow but our server was doing it all - making drinks and had a huge section to tend to. She was super helpful and friendly though so no problems there. All the food was absolutely delicious. The vegetable platter was super flavorful. Loved the portobello "steak". Our server recommended the banana heaven and as a banana lover it was sooooo good! read more

A friend who has a home in Key West recommended this place. Said it was a must visit spot. Once I visited, she was very correct. She warned me that either you get there early or there may be a bit of a wait. We arrived around 9am, and there was about a 30 min wait. We had a table for 4, if you were waiting for a table of 2, the wait would be longer. The nice thing is there is a little bar/coffee shop across the street with seating. You can order while you are waiting for your table. The place does only take cash though just a small note. You are seated outdoors and surrounded around trees. It is so beautiful and so Key West. The food was amazing. They are known for their lobster breakfast items. I had Lobster and Grit. In my mind I was thinking little diced up lobster but no, it is a full lobster on top of grits and it was amazing. Brunch pricing is reasonable. I was also told they have the best key lime pie, while Its not really my thing, I imagine it is because it is huge and takes up an entire plate! This is totally a spot you need to try to get into if you are in the area. read more

First authentic key lime pie. I wish I would have done some research before I came to key west for what's the best and what's a tourist trap, but it was too late. The key lime pie was good! I enjoyed it. I always thought the cream on top would be more of a cream rather than what it was.. I dont know not my fave! But good overall! read more

Fun spot for friends and live music. It's a really cool ambiance. Just not my favorite compared to other meals. Banana bread was the highlight. Lobster grits were pretty good. Key lime pie looks cool but isn't as good as others. read more

I wanted to love this pie because the ambience and atmosphere of this restaurant are beyond. We were on a quest to find the best Keylime pie, and this restaurant claimed they were the top spot. This was our fourth piece of Keylime pie and unfortunately it fell short. Priced at $15 per slice I would've expected more. The meringue was sticky. The piece was tiny and the lime flavor was a bit too subtle for me. read more

Fantastic restaurant. I went for the first time ~10 years ago, and today's visit was just as good. The winning dish at the table was the special of the day- surf n turf eggs benedict (lobster and steak), but everything was delicious. The key lime pie is definitely a good one, but beware, the entire top ~4 inches of the pie is just a merengue cream. I don't particularly care for cream so i slice this part of and enjoy a much thinner layer of key lime pie. This is a good balance of sweet and tart, but I wouldnt say it is the best I've ever had. Pro tip: expect a wait of anywhere between 45 mins on a monday at noon, to 2.5 hrs on a Sunday for brunch. Plan accordingly. They have a shop across the street where you can order drinks while you wait, but this also gets pretty packed. read more

I visited this restaurant based on a recommendation and I'm glad I was able to try it prior to leaving Key West. After about an hour wait we sat at the bar. The bartender was super friendly and talkative. She made great drinks as well!! I ordered beef tenderloin Benedict and key lime pie for brunch. The food was good and quite filling. I wasn't impressed with the pie but I can see why others like it. The decor is eclectic and relaxed. There is a lot of history in this restaurant. I loved exploring the upstairs dining area that served as a brothel when Hemingway lived in the area. They also had live music for a bit. You won't be disappointed experiencing this restaurant if given the opportunity! read more

First morning in Key West in January and counting my blessings to be out of the cold up north and enjoying breakfast with roosters running around the table. Seems normal. Ordered lots of black coffee along with a My Favorite Omelet from the menu with add ons of mushrooms and onions and a side of a slice of Betty's banana bread. All of the food and drink items were delicious. Service was too notch and the atmosphere was carefree and tropical. We also enjoyed a high spirited ping pong match at the outdoor waiting room area across the street from the Blue Heaven establishment. There was also some great classic rock music provided by a live musician on the bandstand nearby. A definite party atmosphere seemingly 24/7. Good times! read more

Second time here and still one of the best spots in the Keys. The service is nice and fast. The Lobster Benedict ... jazzed up with Asparagus and a side of grits was heaven on a plate.

Great walk to Blue Heaven. Checked in and the wait for two persons was 1 hour and 15 minutes. Walked across the street and had some breakfast drinks...while we waited for our table. The wait ended up only being 30 minutes for "first available". The service was amazeballs, Thank You Sarah ! The food was top notch, Thank You Chef. read more

Blue Heaven is quickly becoming a regular dining establishment for us when in Key West. The service is always amazing, the atmosphere is quintessentially Key West, and the food is outstanding. There is nothing like dining under the tropical backyard atmosphere with chickens and roosters "roosting" overhead. The live music is always great without being too loud or overwhelming. I ordered the yellowtail snapper which was melt in your mouth delicious. It was hands down the best meal I had all week. We also had the bbq shrimp as an appetizer and it was fantastic. The bbq sauce was so unique and just simply fantastic. They have it as an entree so definitely consider that as an option. Of course no meal here is complete without their Key Lime pie for dessert. It has mountain high peaks of meringue that will tempt you all night as you watch them being brought out to other tables! We had made a reservation ahead of time by calling which I recommend doing. It is a busy and popular restaurant for a good reason. read more

We had a very memorable time in Key West, which included visiting Blue Heaven. This place is a classic loved by many, it had some amazing eclectic decor (fitting for the location) and some good food. Service was casual and friendly, the seating was in an outdoor area with the occasional mother hen + chicks passing beneath our table and seats. There was some live music too, great vibe for a casual brunch. The food was good! Firstly my bf got this lobster benny which was phenomenal. The lobster was so fresh and juicy, one of the best lobster bennies i've tried. My breakfast sandwich was not the best, it was pretty dry and i didn't end up finishing it. I would skip this one. We stopped in again at another point in the day to try the famous key lime pie - this is a must if you are visiting Key West. Absolutely delicious, homemade in the best possible way. Sweet meringue on top with that slightly sour lime taste. This is such a famous location, and a great stop for anyone looking to experience what the Keys are all about! read more

My husband was on a quest to find a good key lime pie while visiting Key West! He did his research and saw that Blue Heaven was a popular spot for it! He ran in and ordered it to-go. It didn't take long for him to receive it. He absolutely loved this key lime pie. I'm not a huge fan of key lime pie, but found this one to be very light and fluffy. The crust was also made perfectly. It didn't have a tangy or tart flavor either, which is usually my gripe. This was very well balanced and we really enjoyed it! If you're looking for a good key lime pie, check this place out! read more

the food is okay but the service is quite bad, from the hosts (who were busy talking among themselves) to the waiter (who we have to wave our hands multiple times to get attention and unwillingly taking our orders), all with attitude. Poor lighting, we have to use our phone to view the menu. We had the popular dish - yellowtail snapper, it came with pasta, green bean, corn, and cornbread, it's a good choice, fish was fresh, pasta was flavorful and corn bread was fluffy and i like the butter/cream that came together with the cornbread. sauteed plantain $6 - we got this as "add-on", shocking to see only 3 tiny pieces of plantains for $6. (check my photo) We like their huge Key Lime pie with meringue topping, so far the best key lime pie we had in FL. read more

This place is known for there key lime pie. Of course you know we had to try it, I mean look at it! Okay before I get into the pie let me tell you about the place. Everything about this restaurant embodies the Key West spirit. There is a live band playing, a ton of outdoor seating, and also chickens running around everywhere. Don't worry, if you are like me and have a little fear of birds the chickens really could care less about you. They are just looking for food. As far as the pie, I thought it was amazing! As you can see in my pictures it's as literally as big as your head. It is so light and airy and not a traditional take on key lime pie. I would say if you are visiting this is a must go to spot! It's about $13 if I remember correctly for the pie and we split it. We also got cocktails and they were great! A generous pour unlike a lot of places in Key West. I left feeling like the price of drinks were worth it. Note of caution: this is a very popular spot especially for cruise goers. There were a lot of people there who were there from there port. So just be prepared to be in a busy spot! All in all this place would be a miss not to go to for key lime pie if you are in the keys! read more

This place was just ok. I wouldn't waste my time or money to go back. It's way over hyped. The shrimp and grits was very bland. The best thing about that was the homemade bread they make toast with. Disappointing. It looked great. The portion size was good. My friends liked the breakfast sandwich and the rooster special ok, but you can get that anywhere. They do have more than just orange juice and I was able to enjoy apple juice. Our server was friendly. read more

Weekday brunch no reservation 2 people Service - the rudest bartender we've ever had experienced in all of our trips to key west is at this venue We've visited blue Heaven at least 15 times throughout our visits RBF doesn't even touch the look on her face when we sat down at the inside bar There were open seats at this bar We were told by hostess that inside bar was open Hostess suggested having a drink in there while we wait Yes we wanted to sit outside Of course we did, that's the main reason to go to blue heaven - the ambience outside This bartender inside basically told us to leave and go to the outside bar waiting area across the street I asked if they could make their kir royal drink there and she nodded yes Guess what - they cannot Seriously this woman was beyond rude "There's people waiting to eat" "Are you going to eat or not" Her attitude was awful and it's so sad because it's changed our feelings on supporting this establishment And being gluten free and dairy free the food there isn't near my favorite Very limited options (Usually go for the chicken salad Moon dog's is better) read more

It's busy here always. Took first available for an early breakfast and sat at bar with Daria. She was very attentive and friendly. Omelette was good, not memorable, and bread is fresh. Had to try the famous key lime pie and just wasn't that impressed. More focus on meringue that actual pie, which lacked the tartness I enjoy. Live music with the greatest vibes. Guitarist and a huge bass. If you're in town you go here!! read more

Not bad. Just not worth the $. Overhyped unless you're going for pancakes. We went for breakfast. What we ordered: Banana and pecan pancakes Scrambled eggs and sausage patties Fresh squeezed orange juice Pineapple juice Side of bacon (3 pieces) Side of asparagus with hollandaise ( 5 pieces) Shrimp and grits with banana bread Lobster Eggs Benedict (the reason we came) What we loved: - The pancakes were huge and delicious. - adorable restaurant and great ambience - Fresh squeezed orange juice - sausage patties What could be better - The poached eggs (undercooked i had runny white parts on mine) - Flavor, everything was very bland even the shrimp and grits - Key Lime pie - it was fun to look at but wasn't amazing, especially for the price. Even my kids took one bite and passed - our server was nice but didn't check in during the meal to see if everything was good. There are so many great restaurants in this area, next time, we'll pass on this one. read more

We came here on a Thursday morning and it was busy. We had a party of 10 and a wait of 30 minutes. They provided a comfortable waiting area across the street. We chose to sit outside with the roaming roosters. The one unfortunate thing was they couldn't give us checks per couple only one check per table. Our waitress name was Dee Dee and I have to say she was amazing. This place is very unique, laid-back and enjoyable. I ordered their pancakes and they were loaded with my choice of bananas and pecans. Unfortunately they were not fluffy, they were very thin. I wouldn't order them again. My husband ordered lobster and grits which is a very unique thing to have on a menu and he enjoyed his choice and he said that the banana bread that came with his order was very good. They also have a gift shop to walk through. Parking is very limited. This place with drinks can get very expensive. read more

From the moment we landed, Blue Heaven was the destination! Highly recommended as the best spot for breakfast in Key West! Pack your patience because there will most certainly be a wait! The great part is that you can grab a cocktail across the street while you're waiting! I enjoyed a mimosa while the rest had a Bloody Mary. I ordered the Lobster Benny which had a key lime hollandaise sauce. It was fantastic!!!! The pineapple pancakes were absolutely delish! This place is adorable inside and out!

We went to Blue Heaven for brunch on a weekday last week with our family and overall had a really fun experience! The atmosphere is lively and quirky in the best way and feels very "Key West," which makes it a memorable stop. The food was all delicious, and the blueberry pancakes were the standout for me. Fluffy and with fresh blueberries they were definitely worth ordering. That said, it did feel a little overpriced for brunch food- if I'm remembering correctly a fruit cup for the kids was $9 which just seems crazy to me. All in all, it was a fun spot with good food and fun vibes. Worth visiting at least once while you're in Key West, especially if you can go on a weekday. read more

Always a great experience. Breakfast is always great too, but this restaurant offers an "experience". We shared three plates, fruit plate with homemade banana bread, shrimp and grits, and the special which is the standard 2eggs..... Over easy eggs had great flavor, cubed potatoes were excellent, bacon could be thicker, homemade bread was excellent. Shrimp and grits were tasty. Banana bread was fantastic. Great service! read more

Breakfast at Blue Heaven feels like stepping into a tropical daydream run by chickens. I ate under the trees while roosters strutted around like tiny divas, and honestly, they are the stars here. My banana pancake and fruit was totally delicious :) That said, it gets busy. My server was super sweet but clearly swamped, so no check-ins or refills ever made it to my table and the food arrived a little lukewarm. One of the bathrooms was out of order during our visit so I had to wait a while in line to use it which did put an inconvenient damper on things. Still, it's the kind of place that's chaotic, colorful, and totally worth it at least once. read more

We visited for breakfast / brunch on a Sunday in mid October 2025. Since I can't give a 3.5, I'll go with a slightly generous 4 stars. We knew there would be a wait due to the über competitive late breakfast / brunch scene on a Sunday in Key West. We walked over to the restaurant from our B&B and it was already humid and quickly also approaching hot outside. After sitting outside for dinner on the porch at 9-1-5 the prior evening, I was loathe to sit outside again. We opted for a more limited seating indoor table so our wait was a little longer. No big deal. We perused a couple of nearby more upscale gift shops. We returned at the appointed time and were soon thereafter walked around the corner, inside a building and seated at a nice window two top table. The server was prompt, kind, knowledgeable and mostly attentive. There was either an owner or manager who would cackle loudly in the somewhat nearby kitchen alcove from time to time but it's the Keys and weird, I guess. Early drinkers, or perhaps cleaner drunks, came and went to and from the bar. The coffees and waters were good and refilled. We ordered an omelette, Key West Pink Shrimp Benedict and side of large cheese grits. All were good. The shrimp was noticeably fresh; not frozen. We had a good breakfast at this storied restaurant which we appreciate. read more

This place was on my list for weeks up until my trip in Key West. My friends and I were so excited to try it and we were ready for food. It was 11:30 AM. Unfortunately the hostess deflated our balloon and we left it was a 30 minute wait and we were looking for lunch. The attitude was pretty negative being told it was still breakfast but with a 30 minute wait it would be lunch when I did the math, but we didn't want to have our mood affected negatively so we went down the road. read more
