We stopped by Café Bastille on a Saturday around 10 AM, and to our surprise, we were seated right away--no wait at all. Fabiana, the hostess, was so friendly and got us a table outside immediately.
We ordered a cappuccino, iced matcha latte with almond milk, a crookie croissant (cookie + croissant), and a fruit platter. The cappuccino my husband said was good, and the iced matcha latte was really nice. The matcha was unsweetened, which I appreciated--letting me decide how sweet I wanted it. A lot of places in Miami tend to use pre-sweetened matcha which naturally have unnecessary additives, so I appreciated that Cafe Bastille did not.
My husband enjoyed the taste of the Crookie Croissant but couldn't finish it--that it was a bit on the heavier side. Unfortunately, the fruit platter never arrived, and since we had somewhere to be, we just canceled it and paid the check.
Before leaving, we grabbed smoothies (the passions fruit one and the Açaí one) from their bakery side, and wow they were awesome! Cold, refreshing, and worth coming back for! Note that this place has a bakery (right next to the Starbucks) and a restaurant side (which is where you go to get a table and sit down to eat).
Service started off great but was not consistent as the place was filling up. We waited a bit for the check, and the forgotten fruit platter didn't help. Still, I'd say Café Bastille is worth trying for brunch or lunch. The food coming out of the kitchen looked great, and next time I'll probably sit inside and see how it goes.
Wishing this spot all the best!
