Crema's Take

This intimate espresso-focused spot in Key West has earned loyal devotion from visitors who return every morning of their trips, drawn equally to the carefully crafted Cuban double shots and the genuinely warm hospitality of staff like Heidi. Perched right by the seaport with outdoor bench seating that offers a peaceful escape from the island's bustling streets, Gator Joes pairs excellent specialty coffee and divine pastries with an unhurried atmosphere that makes it feel less like a quick caffeine stop and more like finding your favorite local refuge, even if you're just visiting for a few days.

What to expect

Espresso-focused. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.
