Cute little place located on the inside of a Marathon gas station. This is not a restaurant where you can actually sit down and eat, it is more of a pick up and go kind of place. I ordered a roasted veggie wrap and a roast beef sandwich with no mustard, and a chocolate croissant. I wasn't a fan of the roast beef sandwich because it was a little overcooked for my liking and there was mustard on the sandwich. The roasted veggie wrap ended up coming on a kaiser roll but my husband said it was very good. The chocolate croissant was delicious. Filled with chocolate and layers of flaky pastry. The man who took my order was very nice and thanked me for coming in and since it's a fairly new establishment I'm chalking up the mistakes to growing pains. You can bet I will be returning for some of their other pastries and coffee. read more

The coffee and pastries were very good as was the ambiance and food. I had avocado toast and a croissant--both were excellent! The ambiance is cozy and the service wonderful. read more

Everything I have had at Effe Cafe has been absolutely amazing! And to top the taste the food is fresh, like a homemade meal fresh...AND, and they are a healthy choice. It is an absolute blessing to have them in our community and I am extremely grateful to experience their masterpieces. A few of my favs....their coffee is amazing, their pistachio pinwheel and mocha almond cake is amazing, their Tuscan Chickpea Minetrone with Garlic is WOW amazing, their Brown Butter Rolls are delightful. read more

Effe Cafe - Great coffee with a side of delish Pistachio Pinwheel. - Sandwiches Near Me - Cooper City, Florida

This place is truly a hidden GEM! The owners are so incredibly nice. You can tell they are passionate about quality food and service. The menu options are incredible. They switch it up literally every week. I've had breakfast, lunch, coffee and seasonal items and I have never been disappointed. I bought one of their pies for Thanksgiving and my entire family asked if I could bring the same pie again for Christmas. Even though it wasn't part of the holiday menu, they did it for me anyways and it was just as delicious the second time around. I highly recommend this place. I could eat here every day! read more

Giving Effe a little grace with the rating, as this is a new small local business, and the guys were super nice. Hopefully this feedback will help them provide a better customer experience. I ordered a bowl for me and a roast beef sandwich for Husband. The bowl comes with brown rice, three veggies, and i added chicken as a protein. I believe I paid for the protein, but as you can see from the picture, the chicken was not added. The dish just looked very sad. The veggies were tasty, but minuscule in size, more like a large garnish. There was supposed to be yellow squash, eggplant, and cauliflower, but o could barely distinguish these brown vegetables from one another. The rice was clumpy and tasteless. It seemed old. Husband's sandwich was a disaster as well. I distinctly told them "no pickles or mustard. If it has either, he will not eat the sandwich". Sure enough, the sandwich had pickles and mustard. The roast beef was also burnt. The only palatable item was the coffee. I could not resist a small cafe con leche, which was made to order with the perfect amount of sugar. I love finds in gas stations. My favorite taco and pizza places are in gas stations. Looking at the reviews, perhaps Effe was a having bad day. read more

Two chefs in a cute concession cafe within a gas station?!? YES!! And they're serving up some fresh tasty breakfast, lunch & pastry eats. Fresh juices, smoothies & coffees too. As I mentioned, they are located within a gas station, which has plenty of parking. The service was friendly & helpful. Their menu is concise but based on my eats solid. And they'll be adding some more items to their current menu in the coming weeks. You order at the Effe Cafe counter, pay at the gas station convenience store register. I ordered: Chicken Salad Wrap with roasted chicken breast, apples, walnuts, raisins, mayo with a dash of curry. Tasty, light and delicious. White Chocolate Banana Loaf moist, mildly sweet, nice banana flavor perfect with some coffee. Guava Cinnamon Roll with guava & cream cheese icing between every yummy swirl. Genius idea of you ask me :)) Currently in addition to their regular pastry line up, they are also featuring some pies from other local bakers. Buy by the slice, like it, you can order a whole pie. Each week they offer a new flavor (this week apple pie) you can order for the holidays. Stop by for a quick made to order fresh breakfast, lunch or at the very least pick up some pastries yummm. read more

Too bad I don't live around the corner so it's easier to pop in here. Great pastries and baked goods and enjoyed their curry chicken salad sandwich and fresh orange juice. Didn't expect to find this kind of quality tucked into a gas station, but it works and I'll be back! read more

Visited this coffee shop on a Thursday morning between clients. Quick service with a friendly greeting, and I only had one person ahead of me. Ordered and got my food in less than 15 minutes. The food was excellent, especially the to-die-for banana bread. However, the downside was that my food was prepared without gloves, and there was direct hand contact with the items - a hygiene concern to consider. read more

One of the best coffees in town! One morning I was looking for a coffee shop in Cooper City, little did I know I was going to find it at a Marathon gas station. Not only do they have coffee but food that looks amazing. I have yet to try it, but I've read and been told it's awesome and when I spoke to, who I believe was the owner , he told me that they cater, as well. Definitely a place that deserves its own spot! read more

Effe Cafe has the best Americana coffee around! It is my "liquid gold". They also have a large selection of baked goods and food. Their "stuffed croissants" are fabulous! Really wonderful owners! I will be a customer for life. read more

Sooo glad i found this gem!! Def a must try! The white chocolate banana bread wowwwwwww and the coffee is perfect!

Husband loves this place. The extra star is based on his feelings about the place. There is nowhere to sit, and it is inside a messy gas station, but he loves the food. For me, it is good, but they put onions / scallions on things without including them on the menu, so it has been annoying that they show up when I didn't know to ask them to leave them off my order. It is not fast, so people end up waiting a bit for their food. Some will say it is really worth it. I could skip it, but others truly love the food and the quirkiness of the whole setup. read more

Finally made it after wanting to go for a couple of years - yay!. I had the ham and cheese croissant and banana white chip loaf. Both were soooooooooooo delicious. I didn't realize this bakery was in a gas station - would love to see seating in the future if it's possible. I will certainly be back to try their other pastry and breakfast options. I was bummed that they didn't have Matcha. The service was good and the overall ambiance was good. read more

Not your usual gas station food to say the least. We ordered the breakfast bowl and an almond croissant. The chef advised to pair the breakfast bowl with their hot sauce and wow - did not disappoint. Cant wait to come back here for breakfast on the go read more

Small neighborhood coffee shop inside a gas station in cooper city. Ordered a small americano for $3. The large is only 75 cents more. The guy that made the coffee and rung me up was very nice and efficient. They had a nice looking pastry case with brownies, croissants, bread, and even little gift bags of chocolate. Come support a local small business for your next coffee and pastry! read more

Effe Cafe is a Cooper City staple. Everything is made fresh and with all the love from the master chef. It's a quick take out experience but you're never a stranger as they remember you every time you visit. Truth be told, Effe Cafe is the only reason anyone ever goes to this Marathon gas station. There's always a daily special and they make delicious soups and jams. My favorite is the sausage breakfast sandwich and a cup of strong black coffee. Love coming here and will continue to do so for years to come! read more

Top shelf pastries and breakfast options. Don't be put off by the gas station location.

A gem, a little whole in the wall gas station cafe that's fantastic. Everything was delicious. great find.

This spot is inside a gas station always a bit skeptical of these spots but this place change my mind. I should know better , don't knock it till you try it! read more

Best stop you can make. Hidden oasis of amazing food. The owner is super friendly and keeps his place super clean. I can't say enough about the food, the fresh baked items he offers has a variety of flavors to select from that doesn't disappoint on any level. The coffee is also made with a chefs kiss brewed to perfection. Just stop in to grab a simple colada or a full on meal and you will be back for more guaranteed. Sad it's no longer my little secret but well deserved acknowledgment from all! read more

Pulled up to a gas station and wasn't so sure but the food was awesome!! I would be back many times if I lived here.

Don't be fooled by the location. Effe Cafe is high quality. I stopped by earlier today for the first time. There were lots of menu options to choose from but I ultimately landed on the tuna sandwich. It was delicious. Especially the sourdough bread. Some of the best I've had. Looking forward to try more from here in the future. read more

A hidden gem in Cooper City. Unexpected deliciousness! We had the pork sandwich and tuna melt and both were amazing! The Chef gave me a bagel to sample and oh boy!!! read more

From the first visit, I knew this would become a staple spot for my wife and I. Ever since then we've been going anytime we can. Everything is fresh and you can taste. The service is great and fast. The ambiance feels welcoming. It's businesses like this that you should support especially for what they add to the culture of south Florida. read more

A little gem right in our backyard! My husband and I have found ourselves taking turns stopping in for either breakfast or lunch goodies. Nunzio is wonderful- always so welcoming!! I love the thought of walking into a gas station and being absolutely blown away by the delicious food items on the menu. Run! Don't walk to Effe. You won't be disappointed!! read more

My last review of Effe was 4 Stars. I went back today and ordered 2 plain croissants, 2 chocolate, and a banana bread. I was very disappointed. The banana bread was very good, but the croissants were disappointing. Not at all like the first time I got them. Won't be going back again. My husband, who never complains about anything, actually wanted to go back and return them. We didn't, but I sure wish we had. read more

A true hidden gem. We had a homemade crossiant with turkey, cream cheese, and fig jam. wow! It was flaky and just delicious. We also had a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich. Everything is made in house with fresh and REAL ingredients. Had a nice little chat with Nunzio- the owner and he was as kind as can be. We even took home the cinnamon roll focaccia for the kids. We will be back! read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while based on the great reviews and I finally had the chance today. This really is a little hidden gem. I had the sourdough toast with the hummus, squash and sprouts and it was amazing. I would order this again!!!! My son had the mushroom toast with eggs and a stuffed croissant and he enjoyed every bite. We also shared a guava lemonade and sooo.... good. It was so good that after we were done I ordered a focaccia and a few almond croissants to go. Since this cafe is part of a gas station we ended up eating behind the station under a big tree. We were told there was a little park right around the corner with a picnic table but we enjoyed where we were. The owner was very nice and you knew he cooked everything with love and good ingredients. I can't wait to go back and try other items. read more

West Broward, RUN don't walk to this newly opened gem. Effe cafe is ran by a husband and wife duo with serious talent and passion for what they do. They space is located inside of a Marathon gas station with plenty of parking. When you enter you'll be greeted by staff to help walk you through the menu. Currently they offer a Breakfast & Lunch menu that is served until close in the afternoon. I've been 3 times this week so I'll give you the highlights. The coffee is amazing, they are bringing in product straight from Chefs homeland of Italy. The espresso and black iced have been hits There are plenty of breakfast options but I'm a sucker for the sausage and cheese biscuit. Everything from the bakery glass container has been phenomenal. The s'mores brownie, the croissant, & my favorite the Santiago a flourless cake with notes of almond and citrus. Bread is baked fresh everyday and I have taken home a baguette which was perfectly executed. Check out this spot when you're in the area :) read more

One of the greatest hidden jewels maybe ever! The sourdough is great! The menu is great! The croissants great! Highly recommend!

Excellent baked goods so far I have tried focaccia sourdough multi grain , orange almond cake almond croissant chocolate croissant and the s'mores brownie and more all excellent! This is the best food you can find at such a unique location !!! I must remember to mention the roasted peppers and the tomato jam! I am excited to enjoy some of the menu items but the foundation is great so I expect it to only get better Customer service was efficient , easy to order and although a small workspace it works well and everyone leaves happy read more
