I had never tried Cafe Demetrio before and decided to visit on Saturday morning. Unfortunately, it wasn't a great experience. I really wanted the French toast sliders. When I paid, I mentioned that I'm allergic to nuts, and the cashier then told me I couldn't have anything with French toast because the batter contains nuts. Nowhere on the menu does it state that, which is concerning for anyone with allergies. At that point, I was already disappointed. When we received our drinks, my latte was cold. I even asked the runner if she was sure it was mine, and she said yes. After she walked away, I checked my receipt and it clearly said regular (not iced). Overall, it was frustrating. I'd rather just go to Crema down the street next time. read more

As we were approaching the entrance we could smell the coffee from the outside, immediately we knew the coffee was going to be good. The inside is pretty big and there's outside seating as well. We Came on a Saturday an hour before they close and it was jam packed! Every seat was taken. Customers started to leave slowly and we were able to sit down. We only ordered coffee but the plates that were passing by us looked delicious. The only thing I did not like was that customer service was not the greatest. The server was not nice, and none of the employees were friendly nor approachable. Not once did any of the employees smirk, smile, or say hello to us. We ordered a cafe Leo and a hot latte. The quality of the coffee and the taste was worth the drive from Pembroke Pines! read more

Cafe Demetrio - Café Leo - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

The food is good. The service is good as well. I've been coming here for many years. I am a resident, but it is very surprising. They open at 9 AM when most everyone begins their workday at 7 AM. The least you could do is open at 8 AM. I think it is quite lame to open at 9 AM, most people in the area will have to be sitting in their office or workplace by 9 AM. You're kind of shooting yourself in the foot ,you could make a lot of money opening earlier and better serving your community. read more

Cafe Demetrio - Open at 9 AM?.. LAME., get up a little earlier, lots of people begin their workday at 7 AM. This is a breakfast place get with the program. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

This café was just a 5-minute walk from my hotel, and what first caught my eye was the beautiful architecture. After learning it's the oldest café in Coral Gables, I knew I had to try it before leaving! I ordered a couple of coffees for my husband and me, and the service was incredibly quick. The woman who took my order was so kind and gave me great recommendations--the Cinnamon Toast Latte and the Leo Latte. Both were delicious! I wish we'd had more time to try the food, but that will have to wait until our next visit. The inside is absolutely gorgeous, and the giant tree in the backyard adds such a cozy, welcoming vibe. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town! read more

I'm only in Coral Gables for one day and this was on my list of places to go because I saw that it's the oldest coffeehouse in the city so I'm thinking it's 100 years old! Then I found out that it actually opened in 1997, but the building and its historic architecture was built in the 1920's. Quaint and cozy spot, with seating outside in the patio too. They've got an extensive menu with signature salads and gourmet sandwiches, but I wasn't too hungry, I really just wanted to see the place. Then their strawberry pistachio tart caught my eye, it was the perfect snack. I was so impressed at the presentation too. Look how beautiful the plating is. Well worth the trip here! read more

Came here for lunch. It's a quaint place with indoor and outdoor seating and you order your food at the counter. I went with the Famous Tuna Salad sandwich and soup. The soup was delicious. Perfect balance of flavor. When the tuna sandwich arrived I was a bit disappointed. It looked plain. No mayo, no tomatoes or onions. From the looks of it I could not figure out for the life of me what would make this famous then I took a bite and then understood. The bread had the right crunch and chew. The tuna was absolutely amazing. It was lemony and did not need all the other stuff I was expecting in a tuna salad. It was light and bright. I can't wait to come back for more! read more

Hidden gem! This spot is so unique and full of history. From the moment you step in, it feels like you're taking a step back in time (in a good way)-- the walls are adorned with old paintings and the ceiling has beautiful chandeliers. There's ample seating (large and small tables) both indoor and outdoor. And the outdoor space is beautiful; with a large oak tree above, it feels like you're in a small European town drinking coffee. I went with a friend for late lunch snack and ended up ordering their 1/2 sandwich and 1/2 soup deal. I loved it! I ordered the broccoli soup of the day along with the turkey panini and was more than satiated. I also ordered some of their freshly squeezed orange juice (delicious). Would definitely recommend and will be coming again! Only bummed that they're not open on Sundays... read more

Nestled on a tranquil corner of Coral Gables, Café Demetrio exudes an immediate warmth upon entry. The interior, adorned with charming old picture frames, that cultivates a serene blast from the past, ideal for a family brunch. The menu masterfully but yet simple. I requested the New York with wheat toast , with a delightful crispness at their edges. For a more substantial option, the eggs Benedict--captivates both adults and children alike, enticing to both the eye and the taste buds.Also the seating area outside which I was not able to experienced it, but saw it briefly. The service fast and always buzzing with the waitress and waiters going and making sure the tables were picked up right after the folks had left their tables and make it presentable again for the next party to sit. read more

I have been going to this cafe for a while and decided to write a review today. First off the parking is near the cafe but it is pay for parking just make sure you pay on your app before stepping into the restaurant. When you walk in you must order first before sitting down and you are given a number to put on your table. I ordered a omelette that comes with a croissant, cappuccino, and Belgian waffle which comes with two so you can def share. Marisol was the server that brought me the food and she was beyond sweet and professional. It was a beautiful day to sit outside and enjoy breakfast in this cafe in the heart of coral gables. The price is reasonable and the tip you pay it when you order your food in advance. I will def come back. read more

I've been coming to Cafe Demetrio for over a decade since I used to work in the area. The food is consistently good, I usually have a sandwich and I honestly like them all. My go to drink is the Café Demetrio coffee which has a little chocolate drizzle and whipped foam on top. The ambiance is also really chill and they always have jazzy or low key music on. I've come here for several meetings and to work on my computer, and the only suggestion I have is be prepared for the music being a little on the loud side, so if you get distracted by music, bring headphones. The outdoor garden seating area is also really charming. It's a great option if you get cold easily because indoors can be on the chilly side. read more

I truly love this place. We don't come as much as we would want to because they don't open on Sundays and that's usually our "brunch day" Nevertheless, it never disappoints when we get a change to go. We had the French Toas Sliders and the Omelette Creazione (make it your own) and our usual oat milk lattes. Food is good, coffee is good, cozy atmosphere with decent prices. Although you have to make a line to order and pay ahead of time, sometimes the line can be long but overall, I highly recommended it! read more

This place has been around for a very long time but this was the first time I've been to Cafe Demetrio. I enjoy my experience but I would say it wasn't my favorite. The cortadito wasn't my favorite but the orange juice was delicious. Me and my friend shared the French toast sandwich and the Greek omelette. The Greek omelette was surprisingly delicious. I really enjoyed it. The he sandwich was good but I expected more from it . I didn't like that you have to order at the counter and then get your own table. I hate the pressure of ordering that way when there is a long line waiting for you to make a decision. The staff was super friendly. I would revisit and try some other of their specialties. read more

We arrived to a Nostalgic Miami Coral Gables architecture building. Once you open the door it definitely brings you back in time. Grab a menu and stand in line to place your order. We had the Cinnamon Toast latte which was very good. They will ask if you like your coffee hot or cold. That's a plus for me since I'm an ice coffee fein. We also ordered the French toast sliders & the Belgian French Toast. All was very good 7.5/10 read more

I've popped by Demetrio a few times just for their croissants. Their croissants scream homemade on-site from the minute you see them, and taste even better. Crunchy, flaky, super buttery layers and a LARGE pastry size paired amazingly with butter, jam, and a brunch item! I've tried the New York City eggs (smoked salmon, cream cheese, chives) and the Greek eggs omelette (feta, tomato, olives) without disappointment. Their brunch plattera are well balanced and come with the croissant or baguette option as well as salty potato quarters. Their coffees are delicious; I recommend the cinnamon toast latte for a sweet kick. The service is quick and food is brought out to you. On a Saturday it was surprisingly quiet, while a Sunday was bustling with a standing line. The interior echoes an old European coffeehouse with a pleasant gated patio and lots of patio seating. Definitely a gem in the Gables. read more

Went for a breakfast cafe run with my laptop and decided to come back to the cutest one in coral gables. there's many parking spaces nearby which i can appreciate. i usually sit outside and the weather this day was nice so i dined in their outdoor area. The vibes are immaculate. Such a serene feeling. It's never loud/noisy and for the most part the food comes out fast (even if there's a lot of people in the cafe!) I appreciate the service here and the food is just chef's kiss. I got the le classique with scrambled eggs and bacon. I don't like coffee so i ordered the iced vanilla chai (not too sweet) and it never disappoints. I've been here about 3x already and each time i leave satisfied. will definitely be coming again! :) read more

It was love at first sight. I can't explain it...Perhaps because the first visit was a fun one. Now there are always good memories associated with this place (hanging out with friends, birthdays, meeting new people...) I always enjoy coming to this classic neighborhood staple. Even years after my first visit, their coffee offerings are as good as they were on the first sip. I often go for the house specialty, the "Cafe Demetrio," and one I am not over which had malted chocolate...so GOOD. I love the unique decor--it has laid-back elegance. On my last visit, the owners' son shared about their blend of artwork: their mother's love of Peruvian sacred art (which I love) intersects with their father's love of the chess game, as seen in some of the art. I like coming with a book or some work, the servers never rushed me nor bothered me as I wrote, and i can't help but feel academic & inspired--according to their website, they wanted to recreate the feel of eighteenth-century European cafes, "where poets, intellectuals, artists, and working citizens could spend an afternoon." read more

Such a lovely spot for brunch or lunch. I've been coming here for a several years and always get the same thing. The Monte Cristo is perfection. The right balance of savory and sweet.

I've been to Cafe Demetrio multiple times and I genuinely believe it has some of the best coffee in Miami. The cappuccinos are delicious (they give you a little chocolate heart in the middle!) and the atmosphere is super darling. Their service is also really solid - the line can look intimidating if you get there around 9 when they open, but it moves quickly. I haven't tried any of their food yet, but my friend got a sandwich that she absolutely loved. I think my only complaint is that it isn't open earlier. Seriously worth a visit if you are in the Gables. read more
