As a Miami native I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I have not been to Coral Gables first coffee house until now, but what an absolute experience it was.
There's very few Saturday mornings that compare to the time here, we absolutely loved our time at Café Demetrio. They absolutely nailed the atmosphere of being built around the Gables first newspaper and the European 18th century coffee houses.
The classic and cinnamon toast latte were really nice, delicate flavors it taste exactly as you'd expect. The food? Incredible. I wasn't expecting the monte cristo sandwich to be such a decadent, fruit filled sandwich but I still enjoyed every bite of it.
The classic sandwich is the highlight to me, it was the first time I've ever experienced such a nostalgic bite of food in my life. I bit into the sandwich and it IMMEIDTATELY transported me to the childhood mornings were my family would bring a fresh loaf from those vacita farm stores and we'd enjoy using it to make our selves a little breakfast sandwich and talk as a family out in the patio.
Cafe Demetrio perfectly blends Cuban heritage with European influence just like the rest of the gables and it is absolutely incredible, this is Miami. This is worth the stop for natives and tourist alike, just take it slow and enjoy your time here.
