25 Best Things to Do in Miami Beach, FL (for 2021)
"The outdoor lounge at Greenstreet Cafe wraps around the exterior of the restaurant and overlooks the street in Coconut Grove, so customers can watch passersby and enjoy the beautiful Miami weather while partaking in a delicious meal. The place feels like a classy but casual bistro, with corrugated metal ceilings that form a stark contrast to the elaborately upholstered loveseats on the large patio. Before ordering a coconut crusted French toast, pumpkin pancakes, a goat cheese and tomato omelet, or a homemade cinnamon bun, guests can indulge in a sinfully delicious mimosa, Bloody Mary, or a breakfast cocktail, like the Grove Goddess, made with St. Germaine, Aperol, fresh watermelon juice, and cava."
"Start a day of business meetings or sightseeing by fueling up at this popular, buzzing cafe located in the bustling neighborhood of Coconut Grove. Whether you're grabbing a bagel, pastry or croissant to go or you're settling into while away the morning with a full meal and the daily news, this is the perfect choice for locals and tourists alike. GreenStreet offers indoor seating but it's the outdoor tables that are always busiest, often with patrons who bring their furry friends to this dog-friendly establishment."
"Although it is primarily known as a romantic setting for a beautiful evening out, Casablanca Cafe is equally as enchanting for a luncheon with friends or for business. This Fort Lauderdale Beach treasure is artfully housed in an authentic two-story Spanish home overlooking the always changing beachfront.
