Cheap, great quality and presentation supper nice staff amazing food and something for everyone!

Went there once and it was ok. Tried to go twice more and both times the door was open, got to the counter to be told by staff that they were closed. Wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for the fact that there was a solid minute to tell me that before I got to the counter. Oh well. read more

Waffles are Eggos that we're frozen and soggy. The plastic cutlery is cheap, my fork broke whilst eating. Bacon was microwaved and undercooked. I asked for my sunny side up eggs over hard. They came out burnt to a crisp. I will never come here again. The only things that were good were the potatoes and my orange juice, but that doesn't make up for spending $35 for two people to be served frozen crappy food. I hope you close or revamp your serving and cooking procedures. NEVER AGAIN! read more

Cafe Papillon - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Miami, Florida

Breakfast here is one of the best in the area.. I initially started coming here for the tiny tres leches cups to fill my cake addiction. Then after visiting over a couple of months I finally decided to give the food a try.. The staff are amazing and all very friendly and welcoming. They have free internet , seating outside etc. First: I tried the Magda's combo a few times and for $7.99 and it is a lil expensive for what u get especially because I don't really need French toast and 2 slices of French roll bread , but living here in Miami bread some type of bread with every meal is a large part of the Cuban culture here. Then: I tried the French toast a couple of times for 8.49 and I really love the French toast here... it's so soft and fluffy prepared nice and fresh with a side of maple syrup. It's THE BOMB ! Next: would be the bacon egg and cheese croissant for $4.99 and absolutely the best bargain out of everything. The croissants are made fresh daily and are delicious. I have this just about every morning made fresh and hot. Next: would be the breakfast Burrito for $7.49 which is just so so and doesn't look as good as it does in the photo that they have on the window.. but it's okay ! Didn't have rice or salsa like the photo, just bacon, Egg, and cheese. Next: Are the Frappillino's ( Frappuccino )for $3.49 which are a good deal but mostly seemed like I was drinking air. Would have been nice to get a full drink out of it.. That's probably why they are so cheap. Hardly any Frappuccino just a tiny bit, and fluffed enough to make it look like a full cup. With tons of whip cream to fill the rest off the cup. Lol Also, don't like the coffee here either so I usually buy my coffee elsewhere. Morning staff and cooks are better than afternoon cooks by far. Other than that, I do like coming here in the Mornings. It's across the street from where I live. Compared to other places in the area that serve the same quality of food the prices are very reasonably priced. People have to consider before saying that it's to expensive, that Miami downtown rent is expensive. I think they do a good job with prices without being ridiculous given that fact alone. A few items are pricey but not most and they have lots of options. read more

Amazing food, breakfast served all day. Many choices. Price is a steal!!! Presentation was surprisingly elegant. Service was fast/fresh and made to your order. Perfect spot if I'm biscayne area read more

Cafe Papillon - Sooo yummy. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Miami, Florida

If I could zero stars, I would. The worst service ever. First time I visited, our order was lost and we waited over 1.5 hours for food. The second time, I thought it would be smarter for me to order for pickup via UberEATS....wrong! My order was extended an extra 30 minutes. Upon saying the order was ready, I arrive and am told the order needs an additional 10 minutes. They blamed the timing due to Uber, meanwhile, the restaurant only had two tables they were serving and my two item (avocado-tomato toast and burrito bowl) order took over an hour. On top of their terrible wait time, the order was completed wrong and missing parts (ordered avocado toast with tomatoes and tomatoes were missing). I ordered 16oz OJ and 8oz was given. Very mediocre and overpriced food. Save your TIME and money and eat somewhere else. My response to management's response: I physically showed your employee my UberEats application showing that my "order was ready for pickup" and she argued with that my app was false. I did not have a bad attitude. I was frustrated that it was the third time your service was poor and unprofessional. But that was my fault, I should have never returned. Your cameras are apparently not working, because my tomatoes were definitely missing from my order and UberEats reimbursed me for that. I will add my photos for proof below. Thank you for your response in calling my a liar. Have a great day! read more

Cafe Papillon is a unique gem in downtown Miami, across from Bayside Marketplace. Presenting as a chic, European-style café and wine bar, Papillon offers gourmet coffee, breakfast, and lunch. Pair your meal with a mimosa, wine, or beer. The coffee beats starbucks. Breakfast options include made-to-order omelettes, wraps, waffles and pastries. The sandwiches are also freshly made and can be paired with soup or salad. A group should try a Tapas platter to share. Cafe Pappilon is a pay before she you sit restaurant without waiters and offers indoor or outdoor seating. You can easily sit here for hours if you order a houkah to smoke after your meal. The manager, Osain, treats every customer like family; he earns an extra star for the rating by giving the Café a "fine-dining" feel. One critique would be the table bus-service. If a table hasn't been cleaned, just ask when you order. Overall, Café Papillon is a must-try for locals and tourists. Call ahead for take-out as each meal is made fresh with quality ingredients. Better yet, sit down, relax with a gourmet latté and people watch while you wait. ~Captain read more

This is the worst place ever! A whole hour wait for my food and then they forgot my friends order today! Waffles bacon and eggs doesn't take an hour to cook especially when you're not that busy. When you ask a question they don't have an answer and barely speak English. The food finally came and wasn't even good. Stupid asses!! read more

This place is terrible. It is consistently filthy and littered with old food and trash outside. Inside you can find stacks of dirty plates on the counter, and some of the most terrible service you can imagine which goes perfect with the mediocre food. My friend and I order two breakfasts. My salmon came first without the side of eggs which eventually showed up 5 minutes later followed by my friends burrito 10 minutes after that. The counter woman had the personality of a bitter knife and literally told us to get up and get our own flatware from the counter. The place was empty.. I will never come back to this place again. For 40$ breakfast for two people you can goo 100 places better than this. read more

Needed a quick, but delicious, breakfast and we were so pleased with our choice. I got the papillon breakfast sandwich and my partner got the banana nut French toast with 2 oversized mimosas. The food was delicious, the service was quick and drinks with the fresh squeezed OJ Also got an iced latte that hit the spot. Highly recommend, we will definitely be back! read more

I loved this place!! Preface: I have never been to Miami​ before this, BUT my family and I took a vacation during the Christmas break. We all woke up pretty​ early due to time-change and wanted a great "Miami-Style" breakfast. Café Papillon was just fantastic. The atmosphere was exactly what I expected. The service was nice and welcoming. I felt like I was in the family and had been going there for years even though it was my first time! I can't remember​ what I ordered, but it was great. the weather was absolutley beautiful. (It did smell really bad outside but I assumed that that was just how Miami smelled... so pick outside seating wisely). read more

I was in my way to Zona Fesca, it is a couple of steps away.. But decided to try something new and a little healthier since I had just finished with the gym. I had ordered a Caprese French sandwich. It had mozzarella cheese, pesto, balsamic vinaigrette and sliced tomatoes on a French bread. I got the full sandwich, which it was $6 (for half of sandwich it's $4) the sandwich was whatever, but not bad... It was definitely fresh. I also got a spinach empanada, which was pretty good but different because it was made out of whole wheat bread (was $2.49). In total I paid $10, including a bottled drink. Then it got a little weird and unprofessional, because the cashiers ex boyfriend or guy that was interested in her, stopped by to talk to her. You could feel the tension and the uncomfortable-ness because she didn't want to talk to him, but he did.. Super weird and unprofessional on the guys part for showing up to her work place and harassing/bothering her. Will I come back here, no. Not because of the cashiers personal situation happening, but because I felt that it was a bit pricey for nothing when I have cheap and tastier places to go. You have Subway in the corner, where you can get half a sandwich, cookies or chips and drink for $6 and Zona Fresca's meals are less than $7 but complimentary tortilla chips... You have better opinions. ALSO! I DO NOT LIKE HOW THEY DO NOT ADVERTISE THERE STUDENT DISCOUNT!!! THEY ONLY HAVE A LITTLE SIGN IN THE CORNER OF THE SHOP OUTSIDE, SAYING THEY GIVE 10% OFF FOR MDC STUDENTS. read more

Cafe Papillon - French sandwich. Mozzarella cheese, sliced tomatoes, pesto and balsamic vinaigrette ~ café papillon - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Miami, Florida

Definitely a TOURIST TRAP do not recommend. I am not a tourist but I stopped by to have a nice breakfast, on the instagram the food looked very appetizing but no pictures of the restaurant. The place was a whole in the wall service was horrible, the servers didnt even know what was on their own menu constantly asking others if they had the item or if that existed. Had to send our food back three times for being cold and messed up. Food was not served on normal plates like showed on the instagram it was served on to go boxes and plastic silver ware. Did not give water we asked several times and they never brought it till we got up to go and get it. 100% do not recommend horrible experience. read more

My sandwich was great. My coffee was terrible. Their cash register was convenient, and so was the location. It was nice to sit outside for a change, since I just came from dreary winter weather, in the Great White North. Would I repeat? Probably not, unless I was walking right by it (which is exactly why I came there in the first place). If you're in the area often, it's a good place for a quick sandwich. read more

I ordered a breakfast sandwich and brewed ice coffee to be delivered. This place is only 6 min away from me and the ice coffee did not have even 1 ice in it and my sandwich was cold not even room temperature. It makes no sense. The iced coffee is what made me the most upset because my money went down the drain literally. It was disgusting and a watery black. I do not recommend this place for delivery, maybe eating in would be a better idea if you have that option. read more

This place is a disaster. It's one of those places I have gone to often because it was convenient location-wise, but now I have finally realized I need to stop paying for consistently terrible service and mediocre food. I imagine it only stays afloat because of the unwitting red-faced tourists that seem to primarily be its clientele. Good luck trying to get your food in under an hour if there are more than two orders, and even placing the food order to begin with is usually a feat in an of itself, as you often have to yell towards the back flag someone down to help you. Please someone do this place a favor and put it out of its misery. Hopefully then someone will take over the space and open up a decent European cafe or something. read more

Over 40 minutes to get our two to-go sandwiches. I asked to check on the status of the order and they said it was being finished up now. Proceeded to wait another 10 minutes. Disappointing. read more

Food was great! Service was great! Easy access from hotel. Great location. great music

The girl at the counter had a bit of an attitude when told the eggs were not cooked properly. The food was too salty and the potatoes were old and hard! Add to that the price and you have a recipe for disappointment! The only tgat was good was the orange juice! read more

It doesn't matter if it's busy or slow, budget at least 30 minutes for getting your coffee and pastry once you've ordered and paid.

It breaks my heart to write this but i felt compelled to after my experience today. Due to COVID, I've been trying to help small businesses in anyway I can and this is one of the places I frequented often because the owner is sweet and a great lady. However, over the last year, the service has gotten worse and worse and today, knowing this, I called ahead requesting my usual coffee and breakfast sandwich and was told it would take 10 minutes. After arriving there 15 minutes after the call, I had to wait another 20 min for my food to be ready (so 35 min total) and then I found this...right on the top of my sandwich was multiple hairs intertwined with my egg. I was disgusted, disappointed, and now I don't think I'll be coming back. The only reason I'm not giving this one star is because of how nice and genuine the owner is but this is unacceptable. read more

Cafe Papillon deserves zero stars ! This morning as my family and I were walking to bayside we were looking for a place to have breakfast. So we made the big mistake to stop at this place. My husband had the omelette baguette sandwich, decent but nothing great. And I had the Martha's breakfast which had 2 scrambled eggs, 2 pieces of bacon, baguette but I changed it for a croissant and 2 waffles. I also ordered a fresh orange juice and a caramel frap or whatever they call it. Ok, so first of all the eggs were watery, zero salt but edible, as a person that eats bacon regularly I could tell their bacon was microwaved. The croissant came in 10 min later and it was ok, and here is the saddest and most disappointing part. They served 2 FROZEN MICROWAVED WAFFLES!!!! The eggo or whatever kind you get at publix. Soggy and freezing cold. So I asked the girl to please give me at least a warm fake waffle, and she comes back 2 minutes later with the same ones but burning hot and basically wet and soggy. That's when we just have up and left. So $32 for this mess. So disappointed and actually offended at my microwaved waffles LOL! read more

Super good breakfast. My wife got the avocado toast with tomatoes and I had the Papillon special. Service was good and the food was better. Coffee was very good as well. Highly recommend this place. read more

Great food! Pricey for what you're getting, but it's Miami. I've had breakfast here on 3-4 occasions. Everything is very good. On one occasion, around February 2016, I ordered cold (specifically) chocolate milk but received lukewarm chocolate milk. When I asked to have it replaced with cold chocolate milk, the girl at the counter said she would put it in the freezer for a little while for me. I assumed she accidentally made hot chocolate and tried to cool it and asked if she could just make me a new chocolate milk. She was very confused and explained that she used the hot chocolate machine (purposefully) to make the drink and then freezed it to cool it down. The poor girl had no idea how to make chocolate milk by hand. I felt bad and didn't want to embarrass her so I just took the warm milk. read more

Very friendly atmosphere. The gentleman behind the counter greater or thanked everyone with "My friend". Food was great and the coffee was excellent. Only down side was limited seating. Much better than the hotel buffet. read more

Nope. Tried to give them the benefit of the doubt despite a couple of bad reviews. Thought we would try takeout. No pickup on the phone. Oh well I'll go see if they are open and order in person. A couple of groups were leaving so had to wait a few minutes to order. Put our order in and sat down to wait. We got the Belgian waffle with Nutella, fruit bowl, omelette sandwich, bacon, toast, and a combo with toast eggs and home fries. Coffee and OJ as well. Waited about 10 minutes and saw things coming out! This isn't bad! But wait, it's just the fruit bowl and drinks. And they didn't get all the drinks. 20-30 minutes later the rest of the food came out. Still trying to give benefit of the doubt, I figure I'll try it and as long as the food is good leave a review about how great the food is. Unfortunately it was average. And not piping hot. Bacon tasted like it was cooked at 4am and sat under a hot lamp for 5 hours. Home fries gummy. Waffle completely flaccid. Now I'm confused about why we've been there so long waiting. I might go back for the toast (lightly toasted baguette) if I wasn't worried about how long it would take. But likely will never go back. read more

Had egg white omelette, it was really great! My wife had the veggie omelette, she also liked it! Service was fast and polite. We are from az and the server told us about a couple nice places on SB. Gave it 4 stars because I thought there was a funny smell when I walked in. ( my wife disagreed with the smell) Overall we will definitely come back for breakfast tomorrow!! read more

We came in as a party of four. We did order very clearly. However, they messed up our order and bring us the wrong food. They re-did our order; but food came out not as warm as it should have been. Besides, they forgot one of our orders. My friend had to wait for 10 more mins to have his food. Worst breakfast-brunch place ever!!!! read more

This is a great little coffee shop right across Bayside Marketplace and Miami Dade Wolfson campus. They serve breakfast and lunch and have some outside seating and inside seating as well. I ordered the Papillon breakfast wrap and their Turkish coffee to go. The food was delicious and still warm when I ate it at my job. The service is pretty quick since I was in and out in less than 15 minutes. This is a great place to stop by if you want to grab breakfast or lunch near your job. The parking they have available is only street parking but there are usually spots available right in front of the metro mover. I want to come back to try their Spicy Chicken wrap which sounds delicious. read more

Would only visit this place again because of the fresh orange juice. The food portions were small. I asked for turkey bacon, got regular bacon instead. Wasted 20 bucks on eggs, average bread, bacon that I couldn't eat, and homestyle potatoes (we were given like 6 really small, diced potatoes). This place serves kid's meals sized meals. Not going again. read more

I highly recommend this place...the food is amazing ...great service and I loved that we we able to eat outside

BEST breakfast! Love the super breakfast wrap with a cafe con leche, it is a must! Love this place!

I loved the breakfast sandwich but I didn't like the chicken burrito too much rice (had to remove a lot of rice), not enough chicken and it would be better without corn. The staff is amazing I'll say that I just think the burrito can be improved. read more

Warmly and kindly greeted with a genuine smile from the staff/owner. Very relaxed breakfast and lunch spot. Loved, loved their avocado egg toast got it with bacon on top and woah that bacon tasted so fresh, it tasted like they used a great cooking oil or butter, it was so fresh. I was sooooo impressed with how tastey and guilt free and fresh the avocado egg and bacon toast was! Loved the positive vibes here. The white bread is soft, but doesn't stick to the teeth and wonderfully thickly sliced and the bacon was perfectly cooked, soft to chew through yet a perfect amount of crunch with mouth watering flavor and loved how the avocado spread didn't have too much onion, just right. A superb place for a quick bite that actually tastes nutritious and yet affordable. They also offer almond milk as an option for your coffee or latte. Had a cappuccino, they always ask before they add sugar... which I really appreciate, I'm always avoiding the added sugar to my coffee. Looking forward to coming by here as I attend school again in August!! Thank you Cafe Papillon, I hope more people get to enjoy the great and tastey convenience this place has to offer! read more

Decided to give them another try but again I was disappointed. I stood in line for 20 minutes to order breakfast and they managed to take only 2 orders in that time. There were still 3 people in front of me and I couldn't keep waiting. Especially since it was clear that to actually GET the food would have taken at least another half hour. It might have taken another 20 minutes just to get my order in. Don't have that kind of time. And every time I've eaten here, the food was ok at best. Definitely not worth waiting all that time. read more

Pretty decent food and value for the price they charge. I live nearby and went to have breakfast recently. I ordered a Super Breakfast Wrap, it comes with eggs, avocado, tomatoes, pretty yummy. I was kinda bummed to find out the breakfast items don't come with a side of potatoes(like many places do for breakfast) but no big deal. I would come again to have another one of their breakfast dishes. read more

breakfast burrito was delicious. Fresh orange juice with avocado toast were really good too!!!
