Great food, great staff, great way to start your day Big Breakfast choices of all variations! Not to even moon the wonderful coffee! Must get the Crabby Big Daddy read more

Best local joint for breakfast you can find! Support the spirit of rebuilding Matlacha/Pine Island.

I had the BLT sandwich and my wife had a tuna melt. We each had an iced latte tea. Service was pretty slow.The food was decent. There were a lot of people eating here around noon on a Sunday. Probably not going to return soon. If you never have been here, it is pretty confusing when you walk through the front door. Eventually you will figure out that you can seat yourself at any open table, but it took us 10 minutes to arrive at that realization without any help from the staff. Likewise, you don't pay from your table, you have to stand in line at the cashier. You will also have to figure this out for yourself. I guess it would be a lot easier if you were a regular. read more

Our favorite place for breakfast, lunch, or an afternoon coffee! The service is great and the food is even better. Ample serving sizes and the plate presentation are awesome. We enjoy having their freshly ground coffee. Lots of great flavors to choose from!! read more

We ate lunch. Everything was huge portions; very fresh and flavorful. Friendly, efficient and helpful servers. Definitely would eat here again! read more

This is another update from my previous 2 trips. I will never be back and I will make sure and tell everyone I know to stay away. On top of the terrible organization of a seat yourself restaurant and no hostess. We waited for about 10min before someone brought us menus and 10 min later still no waitress to take a drink order so we left. The restaurant also was only about 3/4 full so it wasn't even busy. Half the coffee was out there was no creamer and about everyone around us was complaining about undercooked and wrong orders for food. Why this place gets raved about eludes me probably all the northerners that wouldn't know good manners if it smacked them in the face. This is an updated review from my last trip. This time was much better. The service was still a little lacking no hostess. So when people file in there is no one to great you. Just a waitress taking names as they see people coming in. The food on the other hand was much better I got the biscuits and sausage gravy w/ 2 eggs over easy this time. Sausage gravy was well seasoned the eggs were cooked perfectly. The biscuits were fluffy. A far cry from our last visit. read more

Awesome place, great service, great food!! My 19 year old spilled his drink and they brought him a sippy cup LOL

Perfect Cup, Pine Island, Matlacha, Fl., Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter. Well the Perfect Cup is still not perfect. Rave: good coffee, Rant :You must get it your self. Rave :food is good, Rant: service is slow and unpredictable. My meal, slice of a ham, a bit salty, biscuits not as fluffy as others I have had, Potatoes ehh ok, French toast ok, I should have been warned about the powder sugar! Folks are nice enough. Though at these prices I should not fetch my own coffee or take my bill to a cashier. BUT when you are the only game in town you put up with stuff. read more

A friend of mine suggested this place. It happened to be her brother's restaurant but, that was just an added bonus. Great selection of coffee all roasted on the premises. The servings were large as I took half of my breakfast burrito home for another meal. Lovely staff, eclectic decor, and did I mention the great coffee, again. A must visit when on Matlacha read more

Excellent shrimp and grits! Big juicy shrimp and a large amount of grits. Don't forget to add the jalapeños! read more

Perfect Cup - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Matlacha, Florida

As the name implies, their emphasis is beverages. Coffee and hot drinks dominate here but they also had frozen drinks and smoothies on the menu. They had an impressive shelf of bottles for adding flavor to your drink of choice. Found along the main corridor in Matlacha. When traveling West, you'll look for this small venue on your right. We visited in August and in the early afternoon, which wouldn't be their typical rush. When we arrived, there were a handful of tables being utilized. Service was fine. Professional if a bit casual and slow. One person took our order and another brought our food. By the time our food arrived, ours was the only table occupied. The Crabby Big Daddy (omelet) was sizeable. I ordered mine without asparagus. There was plenty of egg, crab and melted cheese. It typically comes with potatoes or grits, which I had them hold. The omelet was warm but needed seasoning. The toast wasn't very warm when it arrived but was acceptable. My guy's Breakfast Croissant was, in his words, decent. He had them substitute bacon for the ham they usually use. The hot chocolate I ordered had a good flavor. In fact, it was one of the best chocolate flavors I've had from hot chocolate recently. Unfortunately, it wasn't very hot and it cooled off fast. I'm not sure if this has to do with the original temperature when made or the cups they are using. It was pretty with froth when it arrived. Final Assessment: We found the food to be okay but not something we'd rush back to experience again. 3 Stars read more

GREAT BREAKFAST. American cheese omlet with thick cut pork roll. Many other specialty omlets as well. This is a place for the locals and the day trippers. Has several specialty coffees at a coffee bar. Busy yet friendly service. I will return again for breakfast or lunch. read more

Old Florida meets Coffee House...we loved the coffee bar and our food! Waitress was super friendly.

We stayed in Matlacha this past week and had a few breakfast meals at The Perfect Cup. Everyone working here was super nice even when they were slammed. It's no surprise why! Coffee drinks, egg sandwich, grits, burrito and OJ all great! Can't wait to return. read more

I've been here on previous trips and the food was very good.Great little hole in the wall. This trip we stopped on two separate occasions. Most of the food tasted good, but the first time the home fries were mostly overdone and burnt. The second time I ordered a short stack of pancakes and the bottom one was burnt, obviously hidden under the better cooked one. The waitress was no where to be found so I ate just part of the top one. When we mentioned at the end of meal that it never should have been served she just looked at us and then asked if I wanted another one (everyone in our party was done eating at this point). For this reason, I am rating it lower than previous visits. read more

Perfect Cup in Matlacha, Florida began as a small coffee house offering bean varieties from across Central and South America, then later Africa and Asia. Though demand they expanded to a small breakfast sampling that later took on an entire full menu with lunch offerings, and has become a perfect place to relax, with a near-perfect breakfast. My wife and I went twice enjoying the food selections from breakfast and lunch, with items like the breakfast burrito and the tuna melt, but the service was far below par. read more

Got the absolute best cappuccino I've ever had, including in Europe! Consistent every time! Great food too

The bagel with lox is always my go to here, but everything we've ordered has been great. They always have specials even though the menu is a little on the smaller side. They have different coffee blends which is nice, wish they had almond milk though! read more

What a gem of a little restaurant. One needs no other reason to visit Matlacha. A very positive vibe.

The food was excellent! Great place for breakfast. It's a small place so you may have to wait for a table. They are busy and like most places don't have enough help for the demand so be patient. read more

We visited this cute little place for the first time today. Service was excellent. Food was incredible. I believe their coffee is the best I've had. We visit Matlacha every year at Christmas and will be making this a regular stop for breakfast. I only wish we had stopped in sooner. read more

I ordered french toast, bacon and eggs. Eggs cooked perfectly, french toast was good, but the star of the breakfast BACON, was hard and crunchy, and burnt. read more

My entire family loves this place. They have the best breakfast in town and the sun rises and sets with the sunrise Blend coffee. We are moving down to the Cape next summer and my hubby said it will be his everyday coffee place. Service is excellent and it has this down home atmosphere. I only wish you would sell the coffee online so He could have his favorite everyday before our move. read more

Plates were coming out with the food looking messy all over the plate ,food was below par and the waiter was forgetful had to tell him he forgot an order twice . I guess you get what you pay for like the saying says. Will not be returning read more

Cute little spot, friendly staff, lots of coffee options. Carb omelette was delicious ans juss liked there pancakes and French toast. Descent price. Just wished place yo sit outside or some windows, felt dark inside. read more

I really enjoyed this place, it's very popular and busy. Everyone says it has the best coffee but I didn't try it. I did try the hot chocolate it was watery. The menu is very creative and interesting. I got the kielbasa with onions and mushrooms and it was very good. The grits were plain but I ordered a side of cheese and butter and doctored them up with butter and black pepper and they were delicious. They have a blue crab and asparagus omelet which looked really interesting. Lots of people ordered the bagel with lox and capers and it looked awesome. The owner came by at the end to check if we were happy with everything and we were! read more

The has to be the most perfect cup of coffee and breakfast-lunch you could have. The waitress was so friendly and busy helping everyone but paying close attention to everyones needs. The seafood chowder is outstanding even with a side of biscuits.The prices are reasonable probably explains why so busy even on none seasonal high times. Atmosphere is relaxing music acoustic and not too loud . read more

Perfect Cup - Fantastic cup of mocha - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Matlacha, Florida

Uhmm, this is a cute little place, however, the service was unorganized, the food was not awesome, we left almost all on the plates and sure we didn't want to take that home. We got there and everyone one would look at us but would not greet us or explain anything. I had to chase one of the waitresses to ask if we needed to be seated or if this was a self-serve restaurant, she then walked us to a table and gave us the menus. The food, omelets were not good, a bit dry and just blah...I did not understood the house potatoes recipe, it was like paper potatoes chips boiled, not yummy. read more

Perfect Cup - Cheese and veggie omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Matlacha, Florida

Soooooo disappointed I our last 2 visits. Thry were not packed..do why was service so bad??? I ordered a grilled chicken breast with mushrooms onions and peppers, along with two poached eggs. My husband ordered a chicken salad croissant sandwich. We waited over 25 minutes for order. Which is just ridiculous. Finally get our order, and my eggs are overcooked. They're more like hard-boiled! I sent them back, and waited 12 minutes for another set of eggs that were now a soft-boiled. We're getting closer. But they still were not edible to me ... they ran out of the flavored coffee for the day. I doubt if we will be back again... read more

I enjoy their food but I have been here twice and the bill seems higher then the menu price I believe they add a little to the bill . The first time like 20 dollars. The second time I ask for receipt and there was a 7 dollar charge. Just saying read more

Had breakfast here two days in a row while in Matlacha. What a great little place. The bagel with salmon spread was delicious with a very tasty salmon spread and dressed up just like lo on a bagel would be. We also had eggs w/ bacon and sausage and a pastrami omelette. Everything was cooked very nicely and reasonably priced. The waitress we had both days was very nice and pleasant and delivered our orders in a very timely fashion. The first morning we were in kind of a hurry but didn't tell the waitress and our food came our very quickly. The last day we ordered a bowl of seafood chowder to go that we took home with us. I can see why it won the Taste of Pine Island best chowder. It was everything I'd want in a chowder, thick, creamy and packed with chunky ingredients. I really like this place and look forward to going back and having lunch sometime. read more

The crabby daddy omelette is a bit of a splurge, but worth it! The blueberry pancake was light, fluffy & melts in your mouth. Fresh roasted self serve coffee station that keeps you coming back for more. The place is a little warm and stuffy sometimes, and there can be a bit of a wait during snow bird season, but the food is always on point. read more

Perfect Cup - Crabby Daddy Omelette with Blueberry Pancake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Matlacha, Florida

Great spot for a quick breakfast in Matlacha! Has a diner feel with quick service and small tables. Kind of a shame there's no tables with a view of the water or outside seating, since the restaurant actually has canals on two sides of it. I had the big breakfast with eggs, bacon, home fries and toast which was delicious. Big portions, so bring your appetite! They are known for their coffee, and even grind coffee beans to order from all over the world. The aroma is so delightful! I'm not a coffee drinker, so instead had the chai tea latte, which was the closest thing to Starbucks you'll find on the islands! read more

Place was super busy and the food okay but nothing spectacular. The staff was really friendly. There is only one bathroom for men and women to share which is odd for a place for a place serving a sit down meal. read more

Best breakfast I had on the entire vacation. The grits were cooked to perfection with just the right amount of salt and buttery flavor. Loved it. The coffee was divine. The local folks and service were friendly and informative. I would drive here if you are in the area for some delicious food and cozy warm friendliness. read more

Stopped for the first time today while in Matlacha for the week. It's a café that came highly recommended from several locals. While I wouldn't say that I "highly" recommend it, it's a decent stop for breakfast and coffee drinks. The waitstaff was super nice, prompt and helpful. I think every single employee asked us if we needed anything. I ordered the chai latte and the Mr. ordered a mocha. The large mocha is LARGE. Hysterically so, actually. The chai wasn't a strong as I prefer, but it was okay. I had the Crabby Big Daddy omelet (9.95) and he had the special -sausage, Arugula, provolone (8.95). Both were huge portions and fairly tasty. Everything could have used some more seasoning, but again...you have to cook for the masses. Second trip: Coffee was delicious. Bagel with salmon spread was absolutely smothered in pink cream cheese that didn't taste like salmon at all. Chowder was ice cold. They were super busy, which I appreciate...but we had to get our silverware, we couldn't get anyone to attend to the chowder, my husband never received the rest of his food, etc, etc. Maybe go when it's not busy. Overall, okay coffee place. Chilled atmosphere...nonplussed decor...friendly staff...reasonable cost. read more
