Macondo Downtown

A Colombian specialty roaster's Downtown café on North Miami Avenue, pouring house-roasted coffee with Latin breakfast and lunch.

Vérifié octobre 2026

Good for a cheap, serious coffee and an egg sandwich on a Downtown workday. The trade-off is the schedule: it closes at 6 on weekdays and 4 on weekends, so it's a daytime stop only.

What's in the cup

Every bean here comes from small Colombian farms and is roasted in small batches at the company's own facility in Doral, and that's the whole point of the place. Macondo has been at it since 2015 and is family-owned, so this isn't a café reselling someone else's roast. Start with a straight coffee to taste the house style, then branch out. The baristas also make teas, matcha, fresh juices and smoothies for anyone in your group who skips coffee. If you like the beans, they sell bags of the roast, so you can take some home.

Breakfast and lunch, cheaply

The kitchen splits between Latin American favorites and classic American breakfast and lunch. Mornings mean pancakes, egg dishes and breakfast sandwiches. There are vegan and gluten-free options too, which helps when you're feeding a mixed table. Prices sit at the single dollar sign level, so it works as an everyday stop rather than a treat. The rating is 4.5 from about 335 Google reviews, which is steady and solid for a Downtown café.

Working the Downtown clock

Hours follow the workweek: 7 am to 6 pm Monday through Friday, and a shorter 8 am to 4 pm on Saturday and Sunday. That makes it an easy early coffee before a Downtown meeting, a lunch break, or a mid-afternoon refill. It isn't an evening plan. On weekends, don't count on a late lunch here, because the doors close at 4. If a line worries you, Macondo takes orders online, so you can order ahead and pick it up on your way down North Miami Avenue.

Bon à savoir
