Ordered on their app today. One large cold brew coffee for pickup with an added shot of espresso. Received an email at 11:47am that the order was ready, and I arrived at 11:53a. One guy leaning over the counter in the back and had to ask for my pickup order, he didn't move and says my name to the other woman working there. She seems to have no idea and goes to the back, coming out asking if it's just for one drink, yea it is. Now she begins to make it (again after receiving an email that it was ready). She proceeds to pour 1/3 of the cup of cream and I'm like woah that's way too much cream just need a splash. She rolls her eyes and looks annoyed. Finishes making the drink and hands it impolitely to me and says not a word even after I say thank you. Never coming back here again due to the terrible and entitled attitudes. Will happily take my business elsewhere. read more

Place is amazing but how does a coffee shop open at 8:00am is mind boggling. Would be a daily spot for me if they opened earlier.

First time here and I was not sure what to expect just by judging their website. I walked in and it was very cozy and quiet with several people on their computers working while drinking coffee. You order at the counter and they bring the food out to you. I ordered the caprese (avocado toast) and oh my...it was so good. The photos online truly didn't do this dish justice. This was a perfect piece of toast and the bread was very hearty. When I left (a little bit before noon), the place was definitely getting busier and seemed to be a popular spot for moms and their young kids. read more

I love finding hidden gems! Specially the ones with amazing coffee and croissants! The Vanilla Cinnamon coffee with oat milk is delicious!

The food was delicious, the atmosphere quite nice! I definitely will be returning sine I love coffee, especially a great coffee !

What a beautiful spot for brunch! Very intimate and has varied seating (booths, couches, tables, & outside tables). The coffee was delicious & the chai tea latte is going to be a repeat for sure! The chicken sandwich is a lot more filling than it seemed and my avo toast was great. The avo toast could have used a bit more salt or seasoning but i will want to give "the queen" a try. It's open only until 3pm everyday. read more

We came here on a Sunday morning and it was empty. A group of road bikers were heading out when we arrived so we had the whole interior to ourselves. We ordered at the counter and they got started right away. My drink was ready within minutes and all of the condiments are at a station next to the counter. Parking was easy right out front. The interior felt cozy, with a variety of seating options. There were nice wood tables that would be good for working and bar seating along the window looking out at the strip mall parking lot and major road. There are also couches and comfy seating. The coffee itself was good and I would recommend this place for work, study, or catching up with a friend. read more

Very nice ambiance and fast service with free smiles. Plenty of parking too. Food? Don't worry, also great!

The decor is casual and relaxed. The staff is super nice. Great variety of coffees, teas, toasts, flat breads, sandwiches, bowls, etc. Food is very good. I ordered the salmon with cream cheese, cucumber slices and chives toast . They were out of cucumbers and the chives were totally dried out. The toast, salmon and cream cheeese were super! I received a 20% discount for being a first time customer which was very nice. Prices are posted except for baked goods. Large green iced tea, $5.20. My toast was $13.50 for a sizable porton - before first time 20% discount. read more

Came in right at 3pm while it was pouring rain. Door was unlocked several patrons were inside at tables. The young lady behind the counter stated we are closed. I pointed to person in front of us that just received their beverage, but I guess that didn't matter. read more

Perfect spot for bkfast, brunch or lunch w friends or to get some work completed remotely.

Love their coffee and the food is amazing. I would highly recommend if you are accompanied or alone to give them a try.

Missing one of my favorite places in my Pompano neighborhood. I lived in the area for a year and one day I went out to explore, I found the magical Carmela: my favorite coffee shop to disconnect and have a nice time, mostly alone but I also went with friends. Of course, I must mention how special the staff it is and the rewards option they have. The food was always amazing, of course, I had my favorites. Thank you Carmela for giving me such pleasant memories. read more

Well, I can only give this cute little shop a 5/5. The coffee was delicious, service was great, and amenities were clean. I didn't try the food this time, but I hope to next time around. Until then, I have not much more to add except that the ambiance was great for focusing! Lots of natural light leaking in, modern decor, and the foot traffic was light. The music could be distracting if you're sensitive to that, but if not, it was chill, coffee-shop style music that you can easily hear over. Wi-Fi worked very well the whole time. One suggestion to management: provide toilet seat covers in the restroom. Thank you, staff! See you next time :) read more

I found this coffee shop on Maps as I was traveling north and what a great find it was. I'm sitting outside of the coffee shop as I write this review. I ordered the toast with fig jam and seeds and it was delicious. The rustic bread was perfect for the toppings with just the right amount of sweetness. I also ordered a lavender cappuccino which was perfect. Thanks Carmela for a great start to my day! read more

Such a cute coffee shop with a quality menu. The food was good as was the coffee and hot chocolate. We ordered the Nutella toast and the salmon cream cheese toast. Both were delicious! I love the decor in this place and how they have some games available for you to play while you eat. It's a nice place to get work done or to have breakfast/brunch with friends. The servers were nice and brought the food right to our table. We will definitely be coming back. read more

Food was great and drinks were tasty! The parking was perfect!! The vibe of the place felt like a dad owned it. No real character, random bike on the wall like a tgif or flanigans lol read more

Cute coffee spot! Vibe in here is very cozy and comforting. I could see myself coming back to settle into their couch and read a book or do some work. Coffee is delicious which is obviously the most important. I got a simple latte, and it was incredibly smooth and no added flavoring or sugar was needed to enjoy it. Service was also wonderful. They made my morning with how kind they were. I would come back to try out one of their avocado toasts. read more

I wanted to visit this place as I already had it bookmarked AND it was part of Yelp Takeout Week so my friend and I both checked in on our Yelp apps and we received a 30% off code. What a great idea for trying new places! All in all, I would definitely come back...the food was good and there is plenty of seating to spread out. My friend and I were there for a few hours so I started off with a Cafe Mocha with Almond Milk...very good...coffee is strong! I would have liked something as a vegan options to eat, maybe a baked good or a muffin of some sort, but there are no vegan bakery options. After we settled in, we worked on our laptops for a while and then we ordered lunch. I opted for the Strawberry Almond Avo Toast...also very good! I'm excited to try come back and try something else on the menu...they really have a great variety and plenty of vegan options if you just make a few item adjustments. The Fruity Tea was ok...I don't think I'll order it again as it was a bit too fruity for me...I'm not much of a tea fan tbh... I'll be back! Hopefully they read this and incorporate a few vegan bakery items into their rotation;) read more

Stopped in during the week to get a quick bite to eat. Got a delicious avocado toast. The slice of what I think was sourdough was about an inch thick and at least six inches long, with a generous serving of avocado and toppings. The coffee was also delish. Def recommend read more

Went to Carmela today for the first time Very nice vibe super cute place Young guy at the counter help me all I ordered was a cappuccino. I tipped 17% After him roaming around behind the counter for 12 minutes some else came in and he started helping them. After I realized he was not making my coffee I went up to the counter and said how is my coffee coming? He said oh I am going to do it now I said you obviously forgot! Young lady that was behind the counter now I had seen her cleaning up before when she heard me she prepared my coffee and was very sweet and apologized for him!! The coffee was great but he was the one that messed up my experience there. He is obviously new and needs a lot of training read more

Found a new little coffee spot, and I've already been back twice in 2 weeks! The inside of this shop is nice! Really well decorated, homey feel, casual vibe with some chill tunes playing. Valeria has taken care of me both times and she's been super nice and offered some recommendations. Coffee - iced caramel macchiato. This is a nice sweet treat. The coffee flavor shines through and the subtle sweetness from the caramel balances it all out. Avocado toasts are very large and filling. Unfortunately the flavor lacked a little. As in I feel there was no seasoning on it at all. I hope it was just an off day - I'll order it again someday. The coffee cake. Wow. this makes up for it. This was a recommendation and now I imagine I'll order this every single time. The nuttella croissant is also really good. And has a TON of nuttella in and on it. Overall it's a great shop, and I'm excited to have it so close to my house. read more

With places like this, why would I ever go back to working from a chain coffee house? It's a drive from downtown Fort Lauderdale but the John Mayer playlist and smell of freshly brewed coffee will make you feel like it's the place to work from. They have a whole menu of avocado toasts, the biggest ones I've ever seen but this time, I ordered a feta and mushrooms omelet. The ladies working are super sweet, I got to speak in Spanish with them. read more

Went twice during my trip to Florida. First time was great! Ordered a black coffee with stevia and skim milk and the barista steamed the milk first! It tasted so good I was excited to go back. Went back today and first off she had prepared an iced coffee which was 100% wrong. I told her and she made a hot coffee like I ordered. Did not steam the milk. And though I asked for a stevia in it, she put a Splenda in it. I asked if she put stevia and she said yes, but I am 90% sure it was Splenda and not stevia as I saw a yellow packet and not a green one. I guess depends on who you get how your experience is going to be. EDIT: Business owner passive aggressively responded to my 3 star review above saying I came only to say the "bad things" -- no, the first visit was great and I made that clear. The second was not. I'll go ahead and change it to a 2 star review since you're a business owner who refuses to own up to problems with his business. Business owner says "If the barista corrected the coffee" then why get a bad review? Dude, come on. If I pre-order a coffee for pickup and it's wrong, that is definitely going to lose you a star. Let me know what color your stevia packet is and I'll update my surety of getting the wrong sweetener. read more

The Carmela Coffee Company is a chain of coffee houses that began business in 2018. Currently there are only two locations, here in Pompano and one in Parkland but they will be opening shops in Delray Beach and Boca Raton. They also have a food truck. I was looking to get some sustenance for a day after Christmas shopping spree. The coffee shop is very warm and inviting. They have some high top tables, low tables, and couches to sit on. The interior colors are warm wood punctuated with pops of turquoise. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. I decided on a cappuccino and a prosciutto and Swiss cheese croissant for $14. The coffee was absolutely delicious. On their website you can see a photo of the Cuminate Farm in Costa Rica where the coffee is grown. What really separates this place apart from other coffee places I have tried is the care and presentation taken with the food. My croissant was beautifully plated and came with a reduced balsamic vinegar sauce that elevated it beyond your basic sandwich. The price was a little high but worth it for the quality of the food and drinks served. This was a great place to plot my shopping route while enjoying a delectable breakfast. I am now a fan of Carmela. read more

I'm glad to see more coffee shops in the Pompano Beach area. After looking for a place to meet a friend, I found Carmela Coffee Company. The place has a very relaxed vibe, the accommodations are a bit tight but it looks visually pleasant. I can see them grow into a bigger place. My friend and I visited during a weekday and I was surprised to see the place was packed. One would think a weekday isn't as busy, but hey, they must be doing something right! And yes they are. The customer service is great at this coffee shop. We were guided on how to order and I got a few recommendations from the barista. I wanted to try something new so I risked this first visit by trying something very different. I ordered a lavender latte. To my surprised it tasted as if I was drinking lavender. I have to confess I didn't love it but mostly because I realized I don't like drinking "flowers" lol. I must come back and stick with a more classic flavor. I ordered an empanada to accompany my drink and the empanada was delicious! I could've eaten more but I came here in between breakfast and lunch...I have to come back for breakfast or lunch next time. The prices are affordable and fair. I will come back for more! read more

I decided to stop here on a Saturday around 12pm, it was a little busy but not terrible. They had 2 employees running the front and it seemed to be a little too much for just the 2 of them. But anyways, I ordered the burrata and prosciutto avocado toast, it was good - but too much avocado for my liking I took a lot off because it's a bit overwhelming. Just my personal opinion, but it was still good. Carlos was great he even brought my dog a puppacino it was too cute! Very great customer service! I will definitely be back. read more
