They have a smaller drink menu, but the options are unique and creative, such as an iced maple hazelnut protein latte, strawberry hibiscus refresher, and a biscotti testarossa smash hit. Even though the menu is limited, I really enjoyed the variety in their specialty drinks. Because it was early and I am not a big coffee drinker, I chose the triple fruit smoothie paired with a hot oatmeal (forgot to snap a picture). Both were delicious. The smoothie had a sweet, balanced berry flavor that was not too tart or too sweet. The oatmeal was a perfect portion with a few topping options, served hot and flavorful, not bland at all. Prices were reasonable and I enjoyed everything I tried. I would definitely come back again.

At entry was a small one-page sign showing featured Mother's Day "Specials" along with a festive bouquet of helium filled Mother's Day balloons greeting us on this special holiday. Everybody ordered with ease and I typed my phone number in at end of transaction at counter (the counter cashier/Barnstable is where one orders and pays) to earn my Loyalty Points on the transaction. Downtown Espresso still has the Unsweetened plant milk- Unsweet Almond Milk- I adore so I ordered it to be poured into my Iced Cortado FOR HERE. Yes, the order taker asks whether you want the order ToGo or For Here. We had it FOR HERE! Tasted so good and, as a Mother's Day surprise, an individually wrapped Peruvian Alfajore dulce de Leche (gourmet caramel sandwich cookie) was passed out to each lady. So tasty and elegant on Mother's Day. For anyone in the community unaware, the Peruvian restaurant two (2) doors away in this plaza is owned by same owner as Downtown Espresso café. I noticed New desserts are in stock. Thoroughly enjoyed it, as always!

Before I ever tasted a single bean, the name stopped me cold. Calusa. A roaster bearing the name of…read morean Indigenous people -- the Calusa, the ancient shell-mound builders, the unconquered lords of South Florida's mangroves and waterways. People who never surrendered. People whose bones are folded into this very soil. As someone who walks through this world carrying Taíno blood and the memory of peoples whose names colonizers tried to erase, that word hit different. It wasn't a gimmick. It wasn't a logo. It was a declaration -- that this land has a story older than any espresso machine, and somebody here understood that. That understanding alone earned my curiosity and my respect before I'd even stepped through the door. "The name carried the weight of a people who never bent. That's the kind of legacy worth building a roastery around." Then I learned the story behind the man behind the roaster -- and it only deepened my respect. Luis Arteaga came home from serving in the United States Marine Corps and did what so many veterans do: he looked for work. No fanfare. No red carpet. Just a man with discipline in his bones and calluses on his hands, trying to find his next mission in a civilian world that doesn't always know what to do with people like that. He found his way to the original owners of Calusa Coffee Roasters. They saw in him what the Corps had always seen -- dependability, grit, and a willingness to learn. They gave him a job. A floor to stand on. And Luis did what Marines do -- he didn't just fill a position, he grew into something greater. Over time, through sweat and dedication and an unmistakable passion for the craft, he rose to become the owner of the very roastery that once took a chance on him. That's not a business story. That's an American story. A veteran's story. And it's exactly the kind of origin that makes a cup of coffee taste like something more than coffee. CALUSA COFFEE ROASTERS IS A SOUTH FLORIDA INSTITUTION Fast forward to today, and Calusa Coffee Roasters isn't just surviving -- it is a staple. Walk into the right cigar bar on a Friday evening and someone at the table will mention the name. Sit down at the right diner counter on a Tuesday morning and a regular will nod toward that familiar bag. In South Florida's rich, layered, cafecito-and-culture coffee landscape, that kind of word-of-mouth is earned over years of consistency, of showing up, of never letting the cup get small. Luis continues to build something that belongs to this community -- rooted in the terroir of a region as complex and layered as its people. The coffee is exceptional. Bold where it should be bold, nuanced where it earns it. The kind of roast that makes you sit down instead of rushing out. That's no accident. That's someone who respects the craft because he was forged in institutions that demand nothing less than your best. "When a Marine finds his mission in a roastery, every bag he puts his name on carries the same standard -- do it right or don't do it at all." Meeting Luis was one of those moments I didn't expect to move me the way it did. We are both moving through the coffee world trying to build something that means something -- something rooted in identity, in service, in the belief that what's in the cup should tell a story worth hearing. And here was a fellow Marine who had walked a road I recognize: uncertain ground, earned footing, and a refusal to quit. And finally, if you are in South Florida and you have not made the pilgrimage to Calusa Coffee Roasters on Commercial Blvd, you are overdue. Go for the coffee -- stay for the story. And if you're lucky enough to meet the man himself, shake his hand. He earned it in more ways than one. To Luis Arteaga and everyone at Calusa: thank you for carrying a name that honors this land. Thank you for honoring the service that shaped you. And thank you for a cup of coffee that carries the weight of all of it without spilling a drop. Semper Fi, brother. Keep roasting.

They had so much variety in drink options. Some of their food items were out which is unfortunate BUT it comes to show how good their food is! Thats one part that made me take a start out though. I would hope they take note of what runs out to adjust to demand. The other reason is because some items are pre-made with bacon, which could be part of a dietary restriction, but they had turkey-bacon and turkey sausage which is considerate. The service was amazing though! They were so knowledgeable (they actually caught an ingredient i wouldnt want in one item based on other items i took it off of so they made sure to make me aware so i could take it off! So grateful!). They were also very quick to fulfill my order. I definitely recommend this place for tasty, aesthetically pleasing food.
