    Latte at Prickly Palm, Cedar Key
    Bruce K.

    I put off having my first coffee until I arrived in Cedar Key so that I could enjoy it here at Prickly Palm. They're currently serving out of a food truck trailer but on a warm spring morning, it was lovely to sit under the covered "patio" and sip at my latte while I planned my exploration of the area. Fabulous coffee, friendly service and quick. The breakfast sandies look terrific - but not for me on my low carb diet. There's street parking nearby. Enjoy!

    This place was delicious and adorable! Unfortunately, their brick and mortar building took a big hit during hurricane Helene and they are in the process of rebuilding. Please support the local businesses if you are in the area. Everyone was so friendly and the food and coffee was delicious! Service was made to order and they got busy right after we walked up so it took maybe 10 mins to get our food but it was so beautiful outside and several tables were open that we didn't mind. The honey cinnamon oat latte was delicious!

    This is a cute little establishment that was very close to the house we stayed at on second street. It was fairly busy on a Sunday morning but the wait for two smoothies wasn't too bad. We got the Cedar Key Sunrise (orange juice, strawberries, banana, pineapple, mango) and the Rosey Spoonbill (strawberries, coconut, pineapple, banana, coconut milk, white chocolate) smoothies. The smoothies were good, but they did not really wow us. They both tasted like something we could've made it home. Service was very pleasant and the shop was cute. It was a nice place to stop by in Cedar Key.

    This is the tiniest cutest girliest island coffee & tea shop on the planet. The place to go when you are on Cedar Key. I want to secretly run away from home & buy this business just so I can hang out here every day, for the rest of my days. Love you, "Isla de pina" forever mine. See you again soon. xoxo

    I am OBSESSED. Saw this place on tiktok when we were planning a trip to cedar key and this was one of the first places we went after getting to town!!!! The food and coffee were so amazing. Cannot WAIT to come back and try more things!!!

    The absolute cutest coffee shop! Coming to Cedar Key I was little afraid of not being able to find a good coffee shop just because the island is so small. Well, I didn't need to worry at all, the Prickly Palm was all I could have asked for! I went almost every morning we were there. Everything from their matcha, to their lattes, to their pastries, to their breakfast sandwiches were delicious! I highly recommend this super cute spot!

    Yelp has never done us dirty, but some of the places that have been recommended in FL have been a BIG disappointment, and for the life of me, I can't understand how they've gotten such great reviews for mediocre food. Enter, The Prickly Palm! Yelp said it was closed this morning when it was actually open, and we happened to drive through town before having breakfast and saw that it was indeed open, so we grabbed a bite to eat. The ambiance is sooooo cute. Instagram worthy for those of you who care. The two employees were warm and friendly, and the food was the best breakfast we've had in this entire state so far! Their açaí bowl was a generous portion and tasted so fresh--the best one my husband and I have ever had--even over ones we've had in Hawaii and Costa Rica. The coffee was also outstanding. My husband is very particular when it comes to his coffee and brought 3 bags on our road trip from the PNW. He's almost out and bought a bag from here to tide him over for our trip back. We hope to find ourselves in Cedar Key again in the future and will definitely make another stop here when we do return.

    This place is so cute & has the best gift shop! The women that work here are so kind knowledge and helpful at assisting you with drink choices! It's our first stop in Cedar Key each time we visit! Smoothies are delicious!

    The Prickly Palm is a very aesthetic cute coffee, smoothie, Açaí bowl, and boutique shop. I absolutely love it in there, not to mention the coffee is amazing! My favorite coffee drink is the Carmel Apple Macchiato and the chocolate muffins are very addictive :) This business is loved by the locals and I highly recommend a stop by if your visiting Cedar key!

    My fiancé and I both got home late from work and didn't feel like cooking, so we decided to stop by…read moreTropical Smoothie since it's close to where we live and we've been there many times before without any issues. We arrived around 8:40 PM, about 20 minutes before closing, and placed our order. We both ordered the Paradise Point smoothies. After my fiancé took her first sip, she found a piece of plastic in her drink, which could have been a serious choking hazard. On top of that, both smoothies tasted very bitter and not at all like they usually do, so we ended up throwing them away. We tried to move past it, hoping our food would be fine. Unfortunately, there were more issues. I ordered the chipotle chicken club wrap, and my fiancé ordered a chicken Caesar salad with no tomatoes. Despite that request, her salad still had tomatoes. There was also confusion when they initially tried to prepare her salad as a wrap, even though we never asked for that. Later that night, around 3-4 AM, I woke up with severe stomach pain and had to use the restroom multiple times. I was unable to go back to sleep due to ongoing discomfort and continued symptoms into the morning. Now, even into the next day, I am still experiencing diarrhea. My fiancé has also started having the same symptoms. I understand that we came in close to closing time and that employees may have been ready to go home after a long day, which is completely understandable. However, the quality of food, the safety concerns, and the service we experienced are unacceptable. This situation has caused both of us significant discomfort, and it's very disappointing given that we've never had issues here before. Someone needs to be held accountable, that specifically dealt with our food, and service last night around 8:40pm (04/04/2026). I prefer to remain anonymous; however, if a representative affiliated with Tropical Smoothie reviews this and would like to contact me, I am willing to provide my information.
