Breads, Cakes, and Pastries in Miami: Where to Find the Best
"There's always a full house at this bustling American gastropub. Equal parts sports bar, lounge, and restaurant, Batch is the place to gather for soccer games, NBA tilts, boxing matches, and gridiron showdowns. The restaurant is also lively after work, when Brickell businesspeople and residents alike pour in for locally sourced pub grub, from lamb burgers to truffle fries, that pairs perfectly with a lengthy drink list offering a wide range of beers, wines, and other creative cocktails."
"Batch is a neighborhood pub serving an extensive selection of cocktails, whiskey, beer and wine. There is no dearth of options here!. TVs on all the walls allow you to catch the game."
"Little Havana’s shining star offers up Latin bites and beer in an intimate setting that includes a hidden back patio with a tropical vibe. The restaurant boasts locally-sourced ingredients and an award-winning chorizo croquettes dish. Order those for sure and compliment your starter with a short rib burger or a pan con bistec (juicy steak sandwich)."
"A Wynwood favorite, Miam, which means “Yum” in French is a funky gathering place for artists, locals, and tourists. They believe in simple, fresh ingredients and many of their menu options are purely organic. Miam’s coffee menu is filled with a wide variety of all the classics, although they also sell matcha lattes and their signature Miamcchiato."
"Disguised among the zebra-printed Wynwood Building, this industrial-style European bistro, which translates to yum in French, is a local haven for daytime fare plus beer and wine."
"DIRT Sunset Harbor is a good bet for a healthy brekkie, while Ice Box is known for more decadent morning dishes. Then, make a beeline for the beach to get a good spot in the sand. The busiest, and notoriously party-oriented, stretch of the beach lies between 5th Street and 20th Street. If that’s not your idea of a perfect day in the sun, head north of 25th Street for a more peaceful beach experience."
"First Watch is an award-winning Breakfast, Brunch and Lunch favorite that specializes in both traditional and innovative creations all freshly prepared to order. Coral Gables Love reader Leo recommends the skillet hash farmhouse style. First Watch is located at 5799 NW 7th St, Miami, FL."
"This could be Miami’s best pizza, according to locals who show up in droves. La Pizza piles their pies high with meats and veggies. Their crispy crust holds up to whatever your desires heap on it."
"Adding the freshest sushi and sashimi to a roster that already includes prime beef at Gotham Steak, gourmet Asian fare at Hakkasan, and savory rustic … […]"
"The team behind celeb-favorite Sugar Factory launched the first Happy Place Donuts on Española Way in South Beach with a glass-enclosed kitchen allowing visitors to watch the donuts being made. While you can keep it simple and delicious by ordering a chocolate glazed or the original Happy Donut with a vanilla glaze, go for the outrageously fun options that include a rainbow donut topped with Skittles, monkey bread with sea salt cream cheese frosting, or a crispy Nutella donut. The Hot & Happy Dough Balls, a bag of brioche dough balls sprinkled in powdered sugar, are another popular choice."
"Last but not least, there's Happy Place Donuts, another downtown favorite with four stars out of 18 reviews. While gourmet doughnuts are first on the menu here, the gelato case is also worth inspecting, according to Yelpers. Stop by 507 Española Way to hit up the bakery and ice cream parlor next time it's too hot to contemplate being outside without a cooling treat."
"Don’t miss cocktail hour at the Tropicale, a pool bar with tiki drinks, reggae and snacks. If the rooms are all booked up at the Edition, head to Marriott Stanton South Beach, a luxury resort right on the water’s edge. With stylish designs and inviting suites, you’ll never want to leave."
"You will find Chart House in the Coconut Grove neighborhood. Diners enjoy the romantic setting of the restaurant and its modernist architecture. It is also known for the magnificent views, which you can enjoy via the floor-to-ceiling windows or from the outdoor dining area."
"A fun and totally FREE activity to do while visiting Miami Beach is the Miami Beach Botanical Garden. Here you’ll find all the lush tropical vibes that will make you feel like you stepped right into a jungle. And of course you’ll find all sorts of instagrammable corners!"
"2000 Convention Center Dr, The Miami Beach Botanical Garden is a 2.6-acre urban green space in Miami Beach and was founded in 1962.* The Garden offers free admission and is open Tuesday through Sunday from 9 a.m."
"2000 Convention Center DriveMiami Beach, FL 3319(305) 673-7256. The Miami Beach Botanical Garden is 2.6 acres of greens. It was founded in 1962."
"Tucked amongst the verdant foliage and gurgling fountains of the Wynwood’s serene Sacred Space, Plant’s soothing aesthetic and bright, beautiful dishes are a perfect match for its surroundings. Thoughtful takes on global dishes dominate the menu, like Thai coconut ceviche, adobo-rubbed mamey asado and cannelloni composed of kale pesto and almond herb cheese. The restaurant’s ethical ethos extends to its ingredients – most of its produce is sourced from Paradise Farms, Plant’s certified-organic sister property located a few miles south in Homestead."
"Plant is an eclectic plant-based concept temporarily located within The Sacred Space Miami. Heralded by executive chef Horacio Rivadero and pastry Chef Veronica Manolizi, the restaurant prides itself on being the most sustainable in the industry. The innovative dishes are inspired by the nature of South Florida, and indeed each plate is a true form of art featuring only locally harvested produce."
"Despite its name, DIRT offers clean eating and great taste on one plate. Their farm-to-counter policy is what attracts vegans all over Florida and makes it one of the best vegan restaurants in Miami Beach. The majority of their menu is vegan, but they also offer vegetarian and paleo options."
