Crema's Take
“Gator Joe's trades on location and pastry more than consistency—it sits right on the water with genuinely large croissants and the occasional standout Cuban espresso, but reviews split hard between "wonderful service" and "not friendly or welcoming at all," suggesting the experience depends heavily on who's behind the counter that day. At 3.7 stars, this is a decent grab-and-go spot if you're already walking the seaport, not a destination worth seeking out for the coffee itself.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.

Came to Key West for 3 days and stopped here every morning! The coffee, the service, and the location was top notch! Definitely coming here again next time I visit.
Small little place with tasty coffee. You got to try the Cuban double shot espresso.
