This Bohemian enclave actually has more breakfast and brunch spots in a five-block radius than you’ll find in any other Miami neighborhood. From must-have breakfast foods and killer cocktails to creative, chef-driven eateries you’ll only find in The Grove, these restaurants have what it takes to satisfy your brunch bunch.

Have Brunch In A Park 

Much of Coconut Grove’s charm comes from its lush, tropical surroundings, and brunch at Glass & Vine lets you soak it all in. Nestled in Peacock Park, this all-glass, indoor-outdoor restaurant invites guests to clink their Bayview Spritzes (a mix of Aperol, Campari, prosecco and fresh lemonade) and share plates of chorizo and Manchego cheese croquettes or sweet and tangy BBQ deviled eggs topped with pickled mustard seeds and a chicharron. 

Top brunch plates include the avocado toast with shaved vegetables, pepitas, salmon, eggs and cotija cheese and the cornflake-crusted French toast with vanilla-buttered brioche bread and guava jam. 

For those craving lunch foods, the chicken, bacon and black truffle gnocchi or the G&V double cheeseburger will hit the spot. The latter features two blended patties smothered with white cheddar cheese, porcini mayo, steak sauce, bacon and an egg. With its idyllic park surroundings, Biscayne Bay views and an indulgent menu, Glass & Vine has long been one of the best Miami brunch spots.  

MICHELIN-Starred Mexican Food To Start Your Day 

Brunch at Los Félix, which has earned a MICHELIN star every year from 2022 to 2025, is for those who like Mexican cuisine and brunch that doesn’t feel like brunch. Book a table inside or on the patio, order a michelada with Tripping Animals “No Mames” lager, tamarind and chamoy, and vibe to tunes from a live DJ. 

Enjoy shareables such as crudo made from the local catch of the day or crispy tostadas topped with organic eggs, hazelnut-macha salsa, pickled red onions and sharp cheddar. The chilaquiles combine totopos (tortilla chips), whipped sour cream, cotija cheese, salsa, fried egg, cilantro, black sesame seeds and, as a recommended add-on, braised pork belly and caviar. 

On the sweet side, get the corn masa pancake drizzled with Vermont maple syrup and seasonal jam. Before you leave, try the Cafe de Olla, a coffee drink made with chocolate and orange zest.

Quality, Value & Great Cuban Food 

The brainchild of James Beard Award nominee and native Miami chef Michael Beltran, Chug’s Diner combines the feel of a nostalgic diner with a menu of out-of-the box twists on Cuban and American classics. Grab a booth and a Cuban coffee or spice up your brunch with a Chuggy Mary with mezcal and a spicy Bloody Mary mix. 

The recipient of a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand designation for quality and value, Chug’s is where Beltran fuses his award-winning talent with his Cuban heritage. Get a pastelito or the malanga latkes with guava apple sauce and sour cream, or go big with the Chef’s Breakfast. It has three eggs, sazon completa, herbs and white rice. A nod to the classic Cuban dish, The Cuban-American Sandwich comes with sweet ham, salami, lechon, Swiss cheese, mustard aioli, pickles and a ham croqueta.

A Glamorous Brunch With A View  

Bringing back a sense of old-school glamour, Bayshore Club is a marina-front, open-air restaurant and lounge where locals go for good food and drinks, beautiful views, a hot social scene and live music. 

From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, grab a seat and dig into brunch plates such as a spicy chorizo, broccolini and cheddar cheese omelet or a medianoche French toast with Nutella, caramelized bananas and a rum-tinged maple syrup. 

The fun doesn’t have to stop when your meal ends. Book a cabana ahead of time, order The Slip cocktail (a mix of vodka, St.-Germain liqueur, lychee puree, fresh dill and lime) and wander down to the waterfront to relax with family and friends.

The Go-To Spot For Brunch In The Grove 

GreenStreet Cafe is a Coconut Grove classic, an institution in the neighborhood since 1990 and one of the best places in the destination for weekend brunch. Its wraparound patio is always jam-packed with lively groups seated on plush, deep-red velvet sofas along Main Highway or tucked under umbrellas for a classic brunch experience. 

Order avant-garde plates such as coconut-crusted or Nutella-filled French toast, caramelized banana pancakes, jerk-spiced scrambled eggs and grilled cinnamon buns, then wash it all down with something bubbly, a frozen cappuccino, a cocktail or a cold-pressed juice.  

Belgian Brunch Delights With Coconut Grove Style 

While Le Pain Quotidien – French for “daily bread” – nods to the Belgian countryside, its Coconut Grove location has teal accents and a dining room flooded with sunlight that gives it a distinct local flair. This worldwide bakery-restaurant chain is all about good food made from simple ingredients. 

The bread basket is always a must (the bread is 100% organic and made onsite). For a real treat, sip a Belgian hot chocolate with a French cream brioche donut, a pain au chocolat, a toasted Paris ham and Gruyère croissant, Dutch mini-pancakes, or a breakfast bowl with a sunny side up egg, roasted Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, farro and pistachio spices.  

Bagel Towers & Next-Level Caviar 

At Sadelle’s, a popular spot for daily, all-day brunch, sit down at one of the cushy banquettes or on the leafy, shaded patio and order the signature bagel tower. You’ll get a silver, three-tiered tray with six bagels, sliced salmon, white fish, tomatoes, cucumbers, capers and dill. Take your casual brunch to the next level with caviar service, which you can get as a side to any dish or on top of eggs or latkes.
