Café Bea

Everything about this place is great! The food came out super fast and it was delicious. Our server was Nestor and he did a fantastic job. Will definitely come back ❤️

Truly enjoyed this place! Such cute decorations. It has been a long time since I had such a great meal. The huevos rotos were amazing! The fries were extremely crispy, the eggs were perfectly cooked! The croquetas de jamón were also perfection. They gave the famous Miami croquetas a run for their money. The service was superb super attentive and on top of everything. You MUST try the cafe bon bon, yum yum. I can’t wait to come back and try all the other dishes.

Pretty good place, the line to go in is crazy though . Food is good , and is not that expensive. The area is pretty nice, the coffee is amazing, so is the lemonade

Great experience. Definitely a place i can see myself going for a lifetime. Dadnalyex was wonderful and provided excellent service.

This is an attractive looking place, with a nicely decorated patio which creates a welcoming ambiance. The interior is small but also nicely decorated. The one bathroom was in poor condition. We stopped by for lunch and unfortunately didn’t enjoy it as much as we expected. The service was extremely slow, the background music was way too loud for any type of conversation and contrary to what the posted pricing states their prices are much higher. The food was fine, nothing exceptional. To top it off they automatically tack on an 18% “ service charge”. I find this off putting, I will decide how much tip I pay not them. Our server was pleasant however didn’t speak any English, why are you here if you don’t at least learn the basics? The other servers were also pleasant. So I leave it up to you to decide if it’s worth a visit. There are so many others you can choose from.

I am in love with what this location did: used the parking lot for their outdoor seating. I would love for other places to do this. The staff are nice and attentive. I like how they serve most of their food in dishware, not plastic or paper cups. There is no biking infrastructure to reach this location, you will need to use sidewalks. Also did not notice any bike parking in this plaza.

This place has the best cortadito I've tried in miami, the atmosphere is Realy cute and cozy, the portions are really small but in comparison it has really good prices. It also has a beautiful patio. I recomend the french toast, the egg Benedict and croquetas, next time I'll go I'm going to try those discos voladores!

Oh man!!! Great spot in West Kendall. Went there for brunch and was well worth it. **Milk/Cream available for coffee is only EVAPORATED MILK** 👎🏻 Food taste good and great presentation. Good for the whole family. Moderately priced. I strongly recommend. 👍🏻

Loved the service, the ambiance and the food was delicious! The Drinks were amazing Great location

Café Bea is a solid spot for brunch making it available all day long (while they are open, that is). Their schedule has been a moving target throughout the past few years - they were originally open until 9 PM during snow bird/high season (Miami winter) and they would close earlier on regular season, summer (I'm guessing they originally came from up north?). I think after the pandemic they switched to closing at 6p, then switched closing to 4pm shortly after, and now weekends at 5p, apparently - I can't keep track (or wake up early enough on most days to do my things and be there with enough time before they close). They are generally super busy on weekends so expect a line for a table, although today I noticed that they drastically expanded their outside sitting options so maybe the wait is less now - I showed up at 3:50p thinking they were about to close before being told weekends they close at 5p. They spruced the place up a few months ago with a myriad of faux flowers, fruits and shrubbery; they also spruced up their prices to account for it - it must have been an expensive refurb - with this upgrade they also started prescribing themselves an automatic 18% service charge; except it's more like 21%+ once you consider they also apply this charge to the taxes and to a 1% Miami-Dade food and Beverage tax that's unique to them - I've not seen it at any other Miami restaurant - restaurant tax in Miami is 7.35% - in any case, someone should explain you can't apply a service charge to taxes and fees - before this last billing change, they used to charge a 3-3.5% credit card fee, which went away now with the new service charge and the 1% MD F&B fee - it would be hard to justify continuing with the credit card fee too. Add all these fees to higher prices and you get a significantly higher total bill. They used to have not just very good prices, but actually LOW prices on most items; however, now they are more on the high side, specially for the type of establishment it is, this is not fine dining - it's a tiny cafe in a small, but busy strip mall with a bustling adult day care to its left side and an even busier and highly inconvenient child day care immediately on their right side, and 70% of the weekend sitting is outside sitting - now, it'd be unfair to not acknowledge they've worked REALLY hard to make the outside sitting as attractive and comfortable as possible considering the brutal Miami heat - aside from that, $30 for a small piece of steak with a small side of mashed potatoes and $32 for a similar piece of short rib doesn't seem befitting the place - my friend didn't want to come with me because of he feels the prices are not aligned with the entrees, but he humored me - he got the $16 burger, which wasn't flavorful, and he's VERY easy to please (I'm the difficult one). $8.95 for a Flying Saucer (disco volador) is high in my opinion given it's a small sand wind; something that should be more around $6.95 IMO. I wouldn't say that any of their dinner entrees are at the 'above average' level and thus I'm not sure they justify the above-average prices charged at a typical Cuban restaurant - specially with Islas Canarias and FINKA (the two best Cuban cuisine restaurants in Miami) literally just couple of blocks away in either direction offering an endless number of flavorful larger-sized entree choices ranging from basic to sophisticated, and for less or similar prices at the top end. Bea's strong suit is really BRUNCH and its lunch salads and sandwiches. In summary, if brunch is your thing, this is one of the few options in town, specially this side of town, and their brunch options are decent and VERY consistent, so you know what you'll be getting. Consequently, for brunch, I recommend the Huevos Rotos, Croquetas, the grouper sandwich - all of their sandwiches are good to great - this is their forte - you can't go wrong with any of their sandwiches; and their French Toast is very enjoyable. Their croquetas are more in line with the original Spanish recipe with a softer interior due to having more bechamel sauce - I like the Manchego cheese ones. So if you're expecting the typical 'hard' Cuban croqueta you can use as a projectile, know these won't be it - these are way better in my opinion. To me, these are another of their brunch specialties.

Breakfast was good- good service and ambiance nice Eggs Benedict's were good - the cheese croquettes ok I guess - didn't kill me! And that I love cheese They were busy - but doesn't justify food served on the colder side for my taste

First time visiting this cute little spot! They have about eight tables inside but a huge outdoor patio with more tables and fans. To start I ordered the ham croquettes which were OK, but I like mine a little more crispy. When I asked the server for suggestions between two menu options, he really didn't give me an answer so I went with the bacon burger, which was actually cooked well. They bring the food out on a little wooden platter which I would've preferred a plate so I can dip the fries and some ketchup which were just little packets. He brought me . They have a menu for breakfast ,lunch , and dinner and overall was pretty good. Will be back to try other foods soon.

We stopped at Cafe Bea while driving through to Key West. Our server, Nestor, was amazing + very quick to bring out our food. We got the Avocado toast + Nutella discos + ham and cheese Discos. Would recommend all in addition to some of their Cuban coffee. Overall, we really enjoyed dining here!

It is ok. Service is a little slow sometimes and the food is ok, is a good spot for a quick bite or a quick breakfast

Great coffe, great staff and amazing place to eat in family, after 6 months I'm back to eat and the place was remodeled and the services to the customers is the same efficient , fast and friendly bur the most important thing the quality of the food is the same. High recommend

Maravillosa comida y fantástica atención.Ambiente familiar y preciosa decoración , se les recomienda. Excelente!!

The location is really cute, they have both inside and outdoor seating which I loved. The food was really good and we were very impressed with the prices as well, it felt great going to a nice place with good food, not having to break the bank. We will definitely be back to try more stuff.

Stopped here for an impromptu brunch date on Saturday. We were quickly seated indoors, party of 2, without a wait, which was a pleasant surprise! They offer indoor and outdoor seating, so nice to have that option. We were very pleased with the service, our waiter was great & attentive. The place is nicely decorated. We had the Smoked Salmon Bagel & the Huevos Rotos. The salmon was our favorite.

Love this place. The staff is always super nice. The food is yummy. Their mimosas are great. The ambiance is nice as well. It's a really nice place to go for brunch !

This hidden gem is a perfect breakfast spot! It's small but packs a big punch! The food is perfectly priced and delicious, the cappuccino is made to perfection! The wait staff is also so sweet and attentive making the perfect dining experience. Don't forget to grab the manchego croquetas if you come in because there are a must!

Really nice, small Euro-cafe like restaurant situated in a location that you wouldn't expect. So they mix Euro style cooking with Latin and the combination simply works. Expect a line most of the time (it moves reather quickly) and also keep in mind that you will wait three times as long for an inside seat than sitting outside (covered). Would like to see ice tea on the menu, coffee and lemonade were the other choices unless you want soda. Vegetarians, please make sure to remove ham from the avacado toast. Service was above average and prices were very reasonable. Would certainly go back and this place has earned it's stars....

Me encanta el sitio , la comida exquisita , siempre rápidos y atentos , volveremos sin duda

My Cafe Bea that I love so much! When I come to this spot, I feel like I've been transported to Europe. The ambiance is so peaceful. The food is simple and delicious! They don't need fancy recipes, because they can make the basics better than anyone else!

This place is a hidden gem! They have the best cafe con leche I have had in Miami! Which says a lot. The food is super filling and it isn't as expensive as you would expect. The staff was friendly and the vibes were great. I recommend this place!

Worst customer service ever. I went for breakfast to use a promotion code from Dining Advantage and the guy didn't take it even though the restaurant is listed in the page. He said we don't accept any coupon or promotions. If you want to be treated with respect don't come to this restaurant.

Divine and consistent! Been going there for the past 2 years and they have kept the good service and food is delicious!

Great place for breakfast. Hidden gem in Kendall. Quality dishes at a very reasonable price. Good service and easy access to parking.

We went on a Friday morning around 11am. It wasn't very busy and we were seated quickly. This place is like stepping into a Latin country. It's very pretty and very clean. We had a hard time finding parking but we were greeted with a smile. We sat outside and it was very shaded. I had French toast and a green juice. My husband had a salmon bagel. The food was divine. Con: I'm pretty sure the green juice gave me food poisoning or something but I was super sick later in the day.

Food ordered: Egg Benedict Huevos rotos 2. Milkshakes de malteada Manchego cróquets Review: Mediocre service: wanted to sit inside we were willing to wait however we weren't given an option. The egg Benedict were undercooked and white slime oozing out of it- yuck! The ham and cheese disc was more of a grill cheese since the hm was barely noticiable. The milkshakes was horrible it barely tasted like malteada and it had a weird taste to it- not sure if it was the milk used or perhaps they make it with ice cream. The only serving grace is was the croquettes (manchego)

Great service yummy yummy food cafe con leche so yummy and cappuccino very yummy with cinnamon on top. Jenny our waitress was absolutely ever so charming Jenny Gracias you gave us Excellent customer service

El brunch que nunca nos decepciona! Uno de los pocos lugares que ofrecen "discos" de pan al estilo cubano, con jamón y queso o guayaba y queso crema. Además probamos las croquetas y los huevos rotos. Recomendamos el jugo de naranja natural. . The brunch that never disappoints us! One of the few places that offer bread "discos" Cuban style, with ham and cheese or guava and cream cheese. We also tried the croquettes and the broken eggs. We recommend the natural orange juice.

We love coming here for breakfast. My favorite dish is the French toast and the avocado toast. Their lemonade and coffee is amazing. The croquettas are a must try. The serves are always very attentive to your needs. Sometimes during the weekends there's a wait to be seated but nothing unreasonable. The ambiance is great, there's always music playing and very family oriented. Highly recommended.

Nice place serving fast and good meal , good ambiance , the best thing in this place is the location. Services are fine

This is one of my favorite spots for breakfast and all of Kendall, food is great coffee taste amazing And the price is fantastic!

. Great service, offered suggestions, .Just gad breakfast scramble-good! Cafe con leche was good

Food is delicious. Excellent and fast service. Loved it. Great place to have a something to eat and drink.

Cute place in an unexpected spot. Service was great, friendly and prompt. You enter an en casement of greenery and flowers. Definitely makes you feel like you are somewhere else. The mimosa was good and the cafe con leche and cortadito were spectacular, I also had the eggs Benedict and the French Toast both of which I would say they were ok. Not bad , but not something I would run back to have again. I did see a few salads I will definitely try soon. Overall worth a visit. Not many settings like this one in the area.

Server tipped herself. So I'll start off by saying that the food from this place is great! I've gone twice before and have had a good experience, it's sad that my most recent visit ruined that. This last time I went, our server charged us almost $5 for stale bread that she insinuated was included with our plate (otherwise, we would not have ordered it had we known, $5 for a side of bread is ridiculous). When we got the bill and let her know she immediately caught an attitude and blamed it on us. To cut off the exchange, we ended up paying it, but did not tip because the service experience was horrendous. While on my way home, I check my phone alert from my card and noticed she tipped herself!! Ridiculous, I have never had that happen to me.

Very cute spot, nestled in a shopping plaza where you wouldn't think to have such a quaint cafe. They offer indoor and outdoor seating, service is great and they offer many breakfast sandwiches options. There's a Cuban and French flair to this location. There are fans outside and the outside seating is covered by plants for privacy while you eat. They offer green juices and their presentation is cute. The only con of this cafe is that they only offer evaporated milk for their coffees. Non-dairy milks are big now and I feel as if they'd benefit from offering it.

This place is a breath of fresh air! The food is very well done and and the dishes far exceeded what I expected. They have a pleasantly varied menu. Came here for breakfast with my parents, who are pretty picky. But they were both able to find dishes that suited them and both raved about the quality of the food, coffee, and bread. It also has a very cute vibe inside and outside. The service was also stellar. Will definitely be back and would recommend to anyone in the area looking for a well-priced breakfast (I can't speak to the other meals or menu items, but all looked delicious and economical.)

Food is consistently good, never disappoints. We live the outdoor seating. It has a cozy feel to it. This is a Sunday brunch neighborhood favorite.

Go for the croquetas! We went for lunch and what an pleasant surprise. Casual with a good selection of sandwiches and salads. We loved the croquetas, the carrot soup was excellent and the cortadito so yummy. I will definitely return.

Stumbled upon this place around 3pm on a Wednesday and was looking for a quick bite. We sat inside and the whole place was decorated with cafeteras and rustic cafe decor with plants. We ordered and our food and drinks came out right away which was great because I was in a hurry. The frozen green tea lemonade was refreshing for a hot summer day and the Italian sandwich was made with fresh baguette that was nicely toasted with olive oil, fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and basil pesto. We also tried the chorizo croquettas that were creamy inside. Overall, great vibe and ambiance, great service, and looking forward to go back and try some more of their menu!

Last minute stop while in west kendall! I've heard this spot is good and has great food at great pricing. And I gotta admit, a pitcher of wine later, croqueticas, disco volador and huevos rotos later with 2 coffees, under $50 is a plus too! Though they are attentive, the staff kinda does their thing and is very casual, typical Miami setting. Now the food, it comes out quick! We got almost all the courses before the sangria pitcher. The coffees are all made with evaporated milk, so no non dairy options at all, which left a layer of sugar at the bottom of my last sip, which for me is not ideal as I'm not a sweet tooth! The flavors overall were great. The croquetas de chorizo were small but creamy and good! The disco volador de guava and cheese was a perfect bite! And the huevos rotos were made very nicely over super crispy fries! The prices are great! And we didn't wait at all to be seated.

Eggs Benedict dish was served cold, eggs were slimy (there is a method to making eggs like this and they clearly don't know how). I ordered croquettes and they never came even as I reminded the server of my croquettes when she arrived with my main dish, my reason for coming here in the first place! Café con leche was great, however, I was charged $1 more because I asked for evaporated milk. They should tell patrons in advance since this is already priced at $2.50. Last I remember (I could be wrong) the café con leche is already served with evaporated milk?? This place is very popular so i had to wait a bit in order to be able to sit outside. Staff was very nice, though.

As time pases Cafe Bea keeps getting better, more options, better opening hours, nice outdoor seating and great service.

Took my MiL for a quiet breakfast on a weekday and was seated inside under a freezing ac and loud club music. She ordered the french toast - def "never again" - most unassuming dish I've ever seen, two tiny slices soaked in syrup. It looked like it was a birds dish. I ordered the Avocado toast w eggs-bread was hard and stale. The cappuccino was overly sweet. Won't be coming back.

Be aware! I don't eat meat, so I requested to change the ham in my sandwich for avocado. They said yes and added a tiny slice of avocado. They didn't mention anything about the price. When the bill came, I saw they charged me $5 on top of the sandwich (disco volador) price for the slice of avocado. Total rip-off. Food was ok but very small portions.

Tried a croque madame and a disco volador for the first time & i'm so glad it was in café bea! Loved everything we ordered. The ham croquetas were small but delicious. The disco had guava & cheese- wow.. the bread was spongy like a cake. Don't let the color fool you- it was soo soft. Already craving another one. Presentation is everything in café bea. Thought the mini mason jar for the cortadito was so cute. A little pricey for a casual breakfast but it was all in the details. Indoor & outdoor seating, but I'd recommend to get there early since it is a small location.

First time dining in at Café Bea and its was a nice experience. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Service is quick as I didn't feel I had to wait too long. We started off with coffee and ham and cheese croquettas which was great. The croquettas are small so order more than one trust me. For our breakfast meal we had the open face ham cheese and egg sandwich and the panini arrúgala and prosciutto flat bread. The flat bread was a little too salty . But still tasty and the open face sandwich is a must either with a pitched egg or over medium! You have to have that egg yolk dip to create perfection.

Came to this Hidden gem in Kendall off of coral way I was blown away that my mom had been here before. highly recommend coming to this place around 1-2pm as the breakfast crowd gets out but they serve breakfast in case your still craving. The menu is straight forward and absolutely delicious. Everything on the menu you can order and won't be disappointed. I had a green juice that was delicious. We started with a carrot soup very very good. I had 6 croquetas of cod and it was spectacular my husband had a smoked salmon salad and my mom a grilled cheese sandwich the shape of a UFO lol love it. And the owners story is so motivating we only wish all good things for this place and only success. Highly recommend if your in the neighborhood

Wow! Wow! Wow!!! Ordered for the first time and was Exquisite!! The chicken sandwich was tasteful, the chicken was not thick and every bite was a definitely enjoyable. What I like the most that is was very filling but I did not feel bloated. I highly recommend this place!

Love the ambience and the service is exceptional! We enjoyed our brunch with our kids. My kids also loved the Mint and Lemonade drink. It's so yummy! They have great selections of meals especially their amazing croquetas and mimosas.

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible. Ambiance was nice and trendy but the food was strange. The ham croqueta has a bechamel sauce which nowhere does it state on the menu. The egg Benedict were undercooked and slimy. It comes with a miserable piece of one bacon and one piece of serrano ham and topped with too much paprika. The eggs with toast. Something simple. Was too salty. The toast was good but the butter that was on it was basically just oil. The coffee was alright the only thing probably worth drinking for those who enjoy a strong bitter coffee. Will not be returning here a true disappointment.

Food is OK, service was OK ambience is cute. It is very small and have an outside seating, but probably too hot during summer.

More than 1 year later and I'm still a fan! I visit at least once a week......one word..."amazing!" My favorite continues to be the chicken sandwich, yes for breakfast with a side of eggs! Food is perfectly portioned and not greasy. Don't forget to try the croquetas, "all of them" are delish! Staff is as amazing as the food and decor! It still not lost its quant vibe!

This place is small and quaint but huge on personality and flavor. They've extended out to the parking lot, creating a little oasis for their diners. They offer a variety of tasty menu items ranging from French, Italian and even some Cuban favorites. The service was quick and efficient. We ordered a mix of items and they were all delicious! Caprice he salad, Huevos Roto and the Avocado Toast Looking forward to our next visit to try some of the other dishes.
