Cali Coffee
3920 Prospect Rd, North Lauderdale, FL
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused spot in North Lauderdale has built a loyal following thanks to genuinely warm staff who treat regulars like old friends, with reviewers consistently praising the friendly crew as much as the coffee itself. Their specialty drinks—particularly their strong iced lattes—and quality espresso pull regulars back daily, though their hot beverages can be inconsistent, so cold drinks might be your safest bet. It's the kind of place where the walk-up window and casual vibe make it perfect for a quick grab, but the genuine hospitality keeps people coming back for more.”

First time and last time, the service was great and the bees were fun but we order 2 hot oat chips. We were disappointed because they were room temp. I just poured mine out, and mom was not happy at all.. I'll just stick to the one at the house.
Friends recommended this place and it has great coffee, I get the cookies and cream iced latte it's definitely really good and strong, large is big like DDs. Surprisingly there are cute girls that work here also which gives it extra stars for sure. It's pricey but what isn't these days, to me it's worth it once a week. I only gave 3 stars for atmosphere cause it's off 441 which is kinda ghetto and it smelled like pee outside where you order. Definitely not Calicoffe fault but it does ruin the ambiance a bit 😅
The coffee was great but the employees were the absolute best part we went every morning on vacation and seen every employee they all had the best attitude and talked with us like they have known us for years! I would go back even if the coffee was bad just for their staff!
Cali coffee is a really good espresso coffee venue (that also serves milkshakes and cold drinks) with a friendly, welcoming staff. If you're going for a first visit, highly recommend the walk up window and about the pressure of the regulars' drive through window (people got place to go!). The espresso was delicious, which I was told is a local roast. We'll look for the Cali Coffee in Marathon, FL on the way home.
Cali Coffee was founded in 2018 in Broward County by Craig Avera and Rose White who met each other while working in the fitness industry. Cali Coffee is not your classic coffee house where you can set up your laptop and work a spell or hang out. Instead it is for people on the go with a walkup window and drive through. They have now expanded to six locations including Stuart and Miramar and they will be opening 12 more soon all over the state. I first tried Cali Coffee in Cooper City and really enjoyed it. In addition to coffee they also have on their menu fruity drinks, energy drinks iced tea, soda and shakes. They also have a kids menu with a featured shake flavor and a few pastries. We were headed home and my friend suggested stopping by to try their new iced coffee. We had been sitting outside in the heat for a few hours and an iced coffee sounded perfect. Like all of their coffee drinks the iced coffee is highly customizable with many favors to chose from, toppings like sprinkles, syrup drizzles, cookie crumbs, and cold foam for an additional charge. My friend was able to order our drinks on the app so we only had a short wait when we arrived. I chose a Irish cream frozen coffee with cinnamon sprinkles and a caramel drizzle. I like that you can even customize the percentage of sweetness. In this heat, a frozen coffee from Cali is the perfect way to caffeinate this summer.
