This Miami Joe location sits inside of the spectacular Loews Miami Beach Hotel and is a welcome and wonderful spot to grab a snack, sweet treat, smoothie, breakfast sandwich, grab and go meal or of course, a cup of coffee while visiting the hotel.
Miami Joe is decent size for a hotel coffee shop with a self serve case of ready made meals and croissants, bagels and muffins. Then at the counter there is a case with pastries, cookies and breakfast items and if you keep moving down you will come across the pretty red coffee machine followed by the ice cream case! In addition. There are a few free standing tables with snacks, gluten free options, souvenirs and toys.
I was at the hotel for 4 nights and visited Miami Joes at least 6 times. No shame. With each visit, the baristas were friendly and efficient.
The space was always clean, well organized and in good condition.
My only negative would be the shake. I branched out and grabbed a PB shake. The taste was ok, however the consistency was super thin. It was more like milk than smoothie.
Overall, great spot with good options and an even better Iced Mocha!
