Tinta y Café
1315 Ponce De Leon Blvd, Miami, FL
Crema's Take
“Tinta y Café is a Miami gem that earned Michelin recognition for its exceptional cortadito and café con leche, though the real magic happens when you pair that stellar espresso with their celebrated sandwiches—particularly the Patria cubano and the crispy TFC. Beyond coffee, this spot masters the full breakfast and lunch experience with croquettes and creative takes on Cuban classics like their la frita burger, all served in a genuinely warm atmosphere that keeps locals and visitors coming back multiple times during their stay. It's the kind of place where you can grab a quick, high-quality coffee or settle in for a leisurely meal and feel equally at home.”

Tinta y Cafe is my favorite sandwich shop in Miami, my favorites the TFC (crispy chicken breast), Bori (egg), and in my opinion one of the best burgers in town, la frita burger, which they only make on fridays. Their dining area is not that large, so getting a table could be a 15 min wait minimum, and if in a rush you could always pre order or place an order at their walk-up ventanita and sit at the first come first serve outdoor terrace area. In summary, just go, enjoy a great meal!
Delicious food and great atmosphere. Their cubano sandwich is called Patria but there’s another sandwich identical except on “media noche” bread and *chefs kiss* is it delicious. It’s called Noche Entera. The bread is just ever-so sweet, bright yellow and crispy and tender. Cubano elevated. Try it
Absolutely perfect breakfast sandwich. Really cool atmosphere. Great service and nice people. Just an all around great experience. If you’re visiting the area, this place is a must. Breakfast sammich with the media noche bread and strawberry jam was legit. Cafe con leche with regular milk and one sugar was perfect.
This place totally deserves its Michelin recognition. We liked it so much we went twice during our stay in Miami. The coffee is exceptional (we had cortadito and cafe con leche). The soups were packed with flavor, the croquettes and empanadas were awesome, as were the sandwiches (the bread really makes it). I liked that cafe discourages phone use so that customers commune more. We met regulars at our table each time we went, à good sign. Wait staff was efficient and very courteous despite the place being packed. Score a cool t-shirt if you can!
Pleasantly surprised when I stumbled on this gem! Super glad I did. Wait wasn’t too long (it was a weekday though) sandwiches were great and we also enjoyed the croquettes. Favorite thing I hade was an iced mocha latte. Service was speedy but never felt rushed. Bookmarked for sure
