Le Cafe In
1866 N Young Cir, Hollywood, FL
Crema's Take
“Tucked in Hollywood's historic Young Circle, this cozy sanctuary strikes that rare balance between a serious coffee destination and a welcoming third space, where barista Sebastian and the team craft impeccable smoothies and customizable matcha drinks alongside thoughtful pastries. The soft seating and tables designed for actual laptop work create the perfect hideaway for those seeking a quiet corner, while the inviting decor and genuinely friendly staff make you feel like you're discovering a local gem rather than stopping by a cafe.”

Warm and welcoming atmosphere. I was served by Sebastian, and he went beyond a simple transaction. Their smoothies are impeccable.
My husband and I check out new cafes and coffee places every single week. This place was rated 4.7 stars when we went on a Monday afternoon around 3:20 pm. The place has seating inside and outside and looks tidy and relatively clean. It was empty at this hour with the exception of 1 lady sitting on the couch inside munching on a sandwich. I ordered the chicken pesto toaster after reading reviews and we were extremely disappointed. It was extremely dry, too much breading, it was room temperature which was odd because paninis are usually served hot right? It was not even warm 😵💫 barely any chicken, barely any cheese and soggy tomatoes. My husband had a few bites, I tired it and then we threw it away. I wouldn’t have paid even $5 for that (cost us about $11). We ordered a simple latte which was decent and then a Nutella banana croffle which flat out sucked. It was dry, the bananas were old and soggy, like way too overripe (did not taste good and my husband was so angry he tossed that too). The croissant was chewy (usually happens when they toss it in the microwave) and did not taste fresh at all and it was tiny!! I’m not one to usually write reviews unless I am very disappointed or very impressed. This visit was super disappointing. On top of all of that, I was the only one that ordered food and the only one in there and still waited over 20 minutes for low quality gas station level food that was room temperature…not even warm. On top of that, we tipped before receiving anything. About to call and complain for a refund. Friendly cashier, but wow the long wait and crappy food? Like I haven’t had food that bad since I don’t know when. Go elsewhere, so many better places to eat in the area.
Le Cafe In is a sanctuary for those seeking a quiet corner in the hustle of daily life. I enjoyed a refreshing ice matcha there, customizable with a variety of milk options, and paired it with a delightful slice of Key lime pie. What truly sets this café apart is its serene atmosphere; it's bustling with people yet maintains a peaceful quietude perfect for chilling out or dialing into some remote work. A superb spot to savor great coffee and tasty snacks while soaking in the calm vibes."
An inviting, cozy coffee shop in the heart of Downtown Hollywood’s historic Young Circle. Lots of pastries and drinks to choose from. Soft seats with tables at a good height for getting work done on your laptop via free WiFi. The employee behind the register was super nice and accommodated my request for smoked salmon on a croissant instead of a bagel. Once my order was ready she brought it to my table and later took away the empty plate. Prices are reasonable. I would return.
Pleasant atmosphere with cute decor and friendly staff. The food was also very good, considering that it is a cafe, not a restaurant with the chef working full time. One thing that I really liked is the size of their coffee mugs! I got medium and it was surprisingly big! Like really big! It made me happy, because I was yet to find a place in South Florida that served a decent amount of coffee instead of tiny little cups that only give you 4 sips.
