Mattheessen's Homemade
106 Duval St, Key West, FL
Crema's Take
“Mattheessen's Homemade is a destination worth the drive, beloved for their freshly baked signature cookies that arrive warm and impossibly soft alongside housemade ice cream that keeps locals and travelers returning year after year. Beyond the standard Key West sweets, they're known for what might be the island's best key lime pie—a perfectly balanced graham cracker crust and creamy filling that justifies every penny at $7.75 a slice. It's the kind of place where the aroma of fresh baking hits you the moment you walk in, making it ideal for lingering over coffee and conversation with a plate of their uniquely delicious creations.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Went there 3 years ago each day and yesterday once we returned to KeyWest. Cookies are yummy and the ice cream is delicious. Maybe a bit pricey but what’s not expensive on an island.
The best key lime pie is the best in Key West. Don't believe me? Try it for yourself. Cost of a slice is $7.75 for a little bit of heaven. It's the perfect graham cracker crust with a creamy filling and a shot of whipped cream. Highly recommended! The cookies looked beautiful,…
