Read MoreThe Steam Works Coffee Bar was opened in the Palm Plaza shops in April, 2021. I was shopping in this plaza when I stumbled upon this adorably themed steampunk cafe. Steampunk is where the past and the future collide, Victorian England meets technology. Machinery is powered by steam and the punk is a reference to cyperpunk. Elements are drawn from fantasy, horror, historical fiction and it takes inspiration from Jules Verne, H. G. Wells. Steampunk clothing is inspired by the fashions of the Victorian Era in England (1837-1901) and the Belle Epoque in France (1871-1914). Gears, goggles, and hats accent the outfits.
The Steam Works Coffee Bar uses fair-trade, co-op, organic, single-origin coffee from small-batch roasters in Florida. Different roasts are chosen depending on season. Beans are ground before making the drinks for optimum flavor. The menu features a wide variety of coffee and tea drinks along with breakfast and lunch sandwiches, soups, and salads with steampunk referenced names like The Tardis, The Thomas Edison, and the Wayfarer. For dessert there are tempting bakery treats.
For my drink I ordered the Ghost Latte, an iced latte from the Spooky Specials menu and made with caramel and marshmallow. The rich taste of the coffee was the perfect contrast to the sweet syrup. For lunch I chose the Aeronaut made with oven roasted slices of turkey, bacon, on white or wheat toast with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo and steampunk fries. The delicious sandwich was massive and more than I could finish in one sitting.
The Steam Works Coffee Bar offers different events which are posted on their board. Upcoming events include a Stella B. book reading on October 10th and a steampunk costume day on October 26th. Everyone who wears a costume can get a free drink so all time travelers should put that on their calendars. I love the coffee and food but I also appreciate how this local coffee bar also strives to bring the community together. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the Port St. Lucie area.
