Il Dante Caffe

A small, inexpensive coffee shop on Ocean Drive in South Beach, open 7 am to 2 pm every day of the week.

Geprüft Oktober 2026

For early risers who want a cheap coffee on Ocean Drive before the strip wakes up. The trade-off: it closes at 2 pm daily and has no website, so you'll find out the menu at the counter.

The morning window

Doors open at 7 am every day and close at 2 pm, which makes this strictly a morning and lunch stop. That schedule suits Ocean Drive better than you'd think. Early on, the street is quieter, the beach across the road belongs to joggers and dog walkers, and your coffee comes before the sidewalk hosts start pitching menus. By early afternoon it's done for the day. If your plan is an espresso after the beach, look elsewhere. The hours are the same seven days a week, so weekends don't change the math.

What it costs

The price level is a single dollar sign, and on Ocean Drive that's the headline. This stretch of South Beach is known for tourist pricing, so a cheap coffee shop here is the exception. We can't quote a menu: there's no website, and our sources don't list specific drinks or food. Plan to read the board at the counter. The rating backs up the value, though: 4.6 from about 400 Google reviews, a solid number for a spot that gets plenty of one-time walk-in traffic.

Finding it

It sits at 760 Ocean Dr, in the South Beach stretch around 7th and 8th Streets, with the beach just across the road. That makes it an easy first stop on a walk along Ocean Drive or a quick fuel-up before you head onto the sand. Google files it as both a coffee shop and a food store, so there may be more than drinks on offer, but confirm in person. With no website to check, Google's listing is your best source for hours, especially around holidays.

Gut zu wissen

It closes at 2 pm every day, so treat it as a morning or early lunch stop.
