March 1, 2024 - two for brunch after church. Heard from friends at church they were opened on Sunday......thought we would check it out. We live down the street in Lake of the Woods. WHO KNEW this place has been there for a while?? I am flying so fast and dodging crazy crivers coming off of Rte 41 and then wacky stuff on East Venice Road..... but there it is!!! Service was crazy warm and friendly. Felt a little short staffed based on the number of people in there. But it worked out, we are not in a rush. I drank a decaf and my wife got leaded. Really goood brew and had that diner wholesome flavor, not some acidic hairstanding Starbuck powerful stuff!! Be prepared for 'stimulation' because the cup never got cold or down below 3/4 full.... they were topping it off immediatly!!! Service for everything was fantastic!!!!! I got the Irish Oatmeal with berries : very good and almost too much to half finish, very reasonably priced. My wife (even though we had a whole cheddar quiche she made the day before in the fridge) got their quiche. She "said" is wasbetter than hers. I woudl not know since she never offered me a taste and gobbled it up so fast I did not even get a picture??? This is a VERY nice place. While there is a LOT of breakfast competition, it is now on our short list and goto for a nice breaksfast or lunch. We heard some talk of a name change to say its just not about coffee??? and maybe some dinner hours as well????? So keep checking back. read more

We enjoyed an outstanding lunch yesterday at Rosie's Place. This sweet family run cafe was previously known as Coffee Cafe. Located on Venice Ave, it is definitely worth your while to explore the new menu. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service is excellent and the coffee is great. Always a good idea to patronize our local small business. Tell Rosie that Cleo and John sent you read more

The food is excellent. It taste like delicious home cooking from moms recipes. They have a great chef that creates excellent meals. The deserts are also the BEST! Service is great and the owner and her staff are friendly, professional, and polite. I love the warm an welcoming atmosphere this Cafe has. It's a clean and enjoyable place to visit. read more

Venice Avenue coffee shop relocation. Sugar and caffeine make the perfect pick me up drink. Now, if you can appreciate a hand crafted coffee, I'll bet a caramel macchiato will do the trick. What's really nice is the best tasting caramel macchiato can be enjoyed right here in Venice Florida at the Coffee Café. The barista, Rosie starts your beverage with high quality fresh coffee beans, and that translates to good flavor. Made with espresso shots, whole milk, sweet vanilla syrup, whipped cream, plus a rich caramel sauce drizzled over the cream, it all comes together to nicely complement the coffee flavor. Her service is terrific and you'll feel like you are right at home. This coffee house is located just off the island on Venice Avenue. It's super easy to navigate and park east of the bridge compared with downtown Venice. This coffeehouse is a hit. So order up your macchiato or coffee of choice and definitely try one of their homemade pastries. Salute! read more

I loved this place but todays experience was horrible. We were greeted promptly and had our beverages right away. Took probably 10 minutes before the waitress came. I only ordered a toasted bagel and a bowl of fruit. My husband had a bigger breakfast. It took probably +20 minutes and my husband saw our food in the window. The waitress was talking non stop to people at the counter. Didn't even look at the food in the window. When the food was brought it was ALL ON THE SAME PLATE, his and mine. Another 5 minutes for them to fix that. Then they brought it and forgot my husbands toast. That took another 5. Meanwhile another couple sat down after we came in and they had their food LONG before we did. They were almost done by the time we got ours. In their defense they were short staffed but service like this is unacceptable. We were not happy. read more

Tucked away on E Venice Ave this spot takes you back to the Mom and Pop era. Bright and clean, a homelike ambience, ample seating, daily chalkboard specials, a varied breakfast menu, a small staff who are very pleasant and anxious to accommodate your breakfast needs. This is a spot to go to and get away from the chains and enjoy some home cooking. Try it you won't be displeased. read more

Stopped by for just a couple coffee's and the aroma of bacon hit me in the face. Ordered a breakfast sammy with bacon on an everything bagel and it's delicious! The coffee is really good too! I'll be back while im on vacation, everyone was so friendly. read more

Visiting my in-laws who live in Venice, and I needed a WiFi location to work remotely for a morning. This place is MUCh bigger than it appears from the outside. Friendly and warm decor with lots of natural light, and the type of place with different kinds of tables and chairs so kind of eclectic. I thought it was a traditional coffee shop but it is a restaurant where they wait on you. The staff were very friendly and checked on me a few times even though I just ordered coffee. My vanilla latte was good - can't say it's my favorite I've ever had but I am no coffee expert so I can't even pinpoint why. For milk alternatives, they had almond milk, but sounded like no soy. read more

Went for lunch after golfing at Capri Isle. The owner was very personable and described the dishes and offered suggestions. Two of us had the quiche which was hot out of the oven and lived up to her description. The other 3 had the Supreme BLT that they all raved about. Quaint little place cute decor and had local artists work for sale. read more

Stopped in to check it out. This is NOT the cafe on the island! This is a new place heading east on venice ave Nothing fancy . Sat at counter and met owner. Listened to her tell me all about her wonderful coffee, which was tasty. Got a medium black for $5.25. Cant do that all the time read more

Never again! My coffee cup had brown stains inside it. Terrible service & the food was not good either. I was told they do not have American cheese for my burger because it is processed. ALL cheese is processed. Yikes, then my food came 10 minutes before my husbands?! It was not a good burger & the panini was cheese & ham dry in a pressed bread with no sauce or seasoning. When the bill came the beer ordered was on the bill but after getting out the money to pay I was told that the beer price had gone up and the bill needed to be recalculated. It was a 20 cent difference?!! It was a twilight zone experience for sure. We went for breakfast a few months ago and it was so bad so we thought maybe it would be better for lunch.........only people there at 12 noon on a Wednesday, we should have taken the Q!! Not sure how anyone could EVER give this place a 5!! There is NOOOOOOO way. Oh how I miss the Yellow Submarine. read more

What a wonderful little warm cozy cafe to have breakfast or lunch. The food is always fresh and prepared perfectly. The absolute BEST caramel latte ever.

Excellent food and wonderful service in this cute cafe. Staff are terrific! Highly recommend

The quiche was fresh out of the oven and I got it topped with bacon...I highly recommend. The bread was also perfectly buttered and the fruit salad had dragon fruit (a surprising nice addition which I've never seen at a restaurant before). The cold brew was bold, strong and refreshing and I am so pleased we found this place, we will definitely be back soon! read more

I had a very bad experience at The Coffee Cafe. I bought two Local Flavor groupons for this place. I didnt have the chance to use them while the promotional value was in place but it states on the coupons that the amount I paid for them ($10 each) expires on 5/25/23. By law, this merchant has to accept this coupon for the amount i paid for it. When I went in the cafe to redeem the coupon, the owner was very nasty and said she would not accept it. I explained that the coupon said that its good until 5/25/23. She put up her hand and said "I dont care!!". She didnt care that I bought 2 of these coupons for $20 to support her business and now she refused to redeem them. I will never go there again and I will be sure to mention this experience to everyone I know. If her business is hurting, she could have been nice about it. She didnt have to come at me with an attitude. I sat at her table and showed her the coupon. She got nasty very quickly and exclaimed, "Oh, Im not taking those"! I was very surprised at her nastiness and her outburst in front of all her customers sitting at the other tables. I dont know how people can say that she is friendly. This was not our experience at all. read more

When I go on trips, I love eating local so I do my research and make sure I go to a VERY local place. This little cafe is exactly what I was searching for when I wanted brunch. I had a chicken noodle soup and my boyfriend had a vegetable quiche everything tasted very fresh. I also decided to get a Caramel Macchiato and since the only one I've tried before is the starbucks one, boy, was I surprised when I tried the one at Coffee Cafe! It was much stronger and very delicious! If you are looking for a place to eat local at around this area, I'd definitely recommend Coffee Cafe. read more

Coffee Cafe - The Caramel Macchiato and Colombian Coffee that kicks starbucks' butt! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Venice, Florida

Clean, quaint, owner operated. A coffee cafe and good breakfast/ lunch spot. I come to visit Mom regularly and used to go to Starbucks for a coffee and steel some internet. I found this gem while searching for something other than the standard fast food chain style coffee house. Painted and decorated nicely. Mostly table and chairs 2 and 4 tops. Also has several lounge chairs if you wanted to get a cup of joe and read the paper. read more

The service was average and the food was okay. I had an egg sandwich with fruit and a soda. They don't have much on the menu as far as food goes and $6 for an egg and sandwich I could have made at home seemed a little high to me. I guess I expected too much. Overall, this place is more of a coffee shop not an actual restaurant and I'm not a big fan of coffee so I wouldn't return. read more

Glad to have found this treasure. Small and intimate, and yes, you do have to wait for your food, because it's all freshly prepared and a small staff to boot. WELL WORTH IT!!!! The homemade SPLIT PEA WITH HAM soup was amazing and the HAM and CHEESE PANINI was out of this world. Great coffee too! Be careful of the operating hours, since it's only open for breakfast and lunch! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! read more

This is a little gem the locals would like to keep to their selves, but if you are in the area you must try. They are only open for breakfast and lunch and they do both well. Their breakfast quiche is just plain wonderful. Very light and delirious. The paninis are made just right and only Boarshead meats are used. Coffee is best we had in Venice. The cafe is owner operated and they really take pride in their cafe and the food they serve. read more

Cute cafe. I had a breakfast sandwich. Exc. Service. Cute little place nicely decorated. Tasty sandwich.

Friendly staff, great coffee, and a wonderful vibe. Food looks delicious. Try the iced coffee

This is a great little restaurant. The best coffee in Venice for the price. They have a full coffee bar, a delicious raspberry tea with free refills. The owners take great pride in the coffee they serve. it is not cheap restaurant coffee. Huge delicious New York bagels, Boar's Head bacon, breakfast sandwiches and bakery goods baked right there. No Sysco truck pulling up here. they buy from local grocers and farm stands. The owner's and employees are very warm and will make you feel right at home. It's one of those places where everybody know your name. read more

Adorable and delicious coffee shop. Stopped in and had green tea and a fabulous chocolate butterscotch muffin while working on my laptop. Perfect morning! read more

I stumbled across this gem of a coffee shop while getting blood work done down the street. I had irish oatmeal which was adorned with fresh fruit, dried cranberries, walnuts and brown sugar. It was a real treat after having to fast for the blood work! They even offered steamed milk with it. And, speaking of steamed milk, the latte I had was wonderful. You can tell they use good quality beans and it didn't have that "burnt" taste like Starbucks. The atmosphere was relaxed and the decor is really interesting. Will be back for sure. Oh and for you snowbirds visiting, I noticed they had free Wi-Fi as well. read more

Was there with my girlfriend for a nice café before the Beach and we were very pleased...loved the service and specially the food...coffee was delicious...felt so much at home that I walked out with the coffee mug in my hand. Haha...I returned it don't worry! read more

While visiting in Venice, I needed a good cup of coffee in the morning. Coffee Cafe definitely has great coffee! The first time I went I got a breakfast sandwich for my fiancé. The second time, I got sandwiches for the both of us. The food is great, but there's a reason for only my 3 stars...service. The first time I was there, there was only one man running the whole show. The second time, there was a man and a woman. Both times they were incredibly frazzled, and it made me very uncomfortable. Not to mention this second time due to how busy and how frazzled they were, they messed up our order twice. The first time they only gave us one sandwich, the second time we realized that they forgot bacon in BOTH of our sandwiches. When I come back to Venice, I'll definitely come back, but maybe just for the coffee...cut them some slack!! read more

Stopped for a quick lunch on our way to airport in Punta Gorda. Had Gorgonzola pear salad, bacon quiche, and tuna salad. All was very tasty. We told them that we were in a hurry, and they were very accommodating. Coffee was also good. read more
