    Was looking for a quick but yummy breakfast since we were on a time crunch before kayaking. We had breakfast tacos and a breakfast sandwich. A double espresso and a mango smoothie. The breakfast tacos were so fresh and delicious and the bread on the breakfast sandwich was buttered to perfection. The sandwich was cheesy and so tasty. The smoothie was creamy and almost whipped like and the espresso was so tasty and the perfect pick me up. We were in and out super quickly and the staff was so friendly. Would be back again!

    Birria tacos are amazing! Thoughtful packaging for delivery and my cafe con leche is delicious. Delivery was super quick as well. This is a yummy spot!

    I'm a local here and I wanted to get a good hot delicious Cuban toast w/butter (simple right) to go with my coffee but I got this instead Kims Kuban used to be good but not anymore this has happened multiple times in the past but today I decided let me give them another chance huge mistake

    Great service, excellent food. Been here several times before but it wasn't until today that a coworker suggested their chicken soup. It came with a piece of lime and fresh cuban bread. Highly recommend!

    Beef Tongue Tacos

    We walked a mile and a half. It was worth every step of the way. The tongue tacos were amazing.

    Stopped in to pick up a coffee and some breakfast while staying in area. The breakfast sandwiches and coffee are great! I had the chorizo, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich. Liked it so much had to come back the next morning for another. I got a Hot coffee one day and iced the next and it was very good either way. This place is amazing!

    We stayed in Key West for three days, went to Kim's twice! It's a small joint with a few outdoor tables and an island inside. The food was THE BEST food we had during our visit. Our favorite was beef tongue taco. Portion is very generous, tortilla is chewy and the meat seasoned very well. We also got cubano sandwich - well made and loved it!! We also tried the beef tacos and it was so tasty as well, though preferred the chewy tongue meat. We loved the owners there, so sweet. Service / rotation is really fast too. A must visit in Key West!!

    One of Key Wests best Cuban mix to be found. Food, service and ambience are always consistently good. Also a good option for take out food.

    Great spot for a quick sandwich, and prices are beyond reasonable. Called ahead for takeout several times on our vacation.

    We're spending the week in Key West and making a point of visiting as many coffee shops as…read morepossible. When we walked to Doing Work Coffee, we were initially a bit confused and weren't sure we were in the right place. That's understandable, since it shares space with Wicked Lick Ice Cream. Fortunately, the owner noticed our confusion and warmly invited us in. Food: It wasn't listed on the menu, but they were happy to make me a London Fog tea latte. My son ordered a white chocolate latte. Both drinks were good. Personally, I prefer coffee served in a mug, and they only use paper cups, which took away a bit from the experience. They don't offer much in the way of baked goods, but they did have butterscotch scones. The scone was slightly too sweet for my taste, but the texture was excellent. They heated it for us, which made it even more enjoyable. Service: The service was exceptionally friendly. We felt genuinely welcomed, and the owner took the time to have a conversation with us. After hearing his story and seeing his commitment and work ethic firsthand, I found myself rooting for his success. Atmosphere: Since they share space with the ice cream shop, the environment isn't fully coffee-centric. Coffee is the focus earlier in the day, with ice cream taking over later. There is limited seating, and for me, part of the coffee shop experience is slowing down, drinking from a proper mug, and enjoying a calm, dedicated café environment. I'm not sure what their long-term plans are, but I hope they eventually move into their own space. They clearly care about what they're doing, and it would be great to see them grow into a full coffee shop experience. Best of luck to them.

    Delicious! We found ourselves in Key West for half a day as a cruise ship port of call on the way…read moreto the Bahamas. Tired and thirsty after a 30 minute walk in the summer, we decided to stop by for a pick me up with some Cuban coffee. The Yelp reviews looked great so we gave it a shot. Overrated? Not at all! Coffee was strong and amazing, cafe was spacious and clean (the air conditioning was a life saver), and staff was nice. If you're in the area wanting some good Cuban coffee, look no further. There are several Cuban Coffee Queen locations scattered throughout Key West. Enjoy!

    I'm Cuban, I grew up drinking Cuban coffee, and I know what good coffee should taste like…read more Unfortunately, this just wasn't it for me. My iced coffee was initially so overwhelmingly sweet that all I could taste was syrup. They kindly remade it, but the second one went to the opposite extreme and just tasted bad and unbalanced. What really disappointed me was seeing the coffee being poured from a large jug of premade mixture directly over ice and coffee ice cubes. I was expecting freshly made espresso, especially from a place specializing in Cuban coffee. Maybe this works for people looking for a flavored iced coffee, but if you're used to authentic, freshly prepared Cuban coffee, this may not be what you're expecting. I really wanted to love it based on all the great reviews, but it just wasn't for me.

    Last morning in Key West and I finally made it here, just after watching the sunrise at the…read moreSouthernmost Point buoy. I arrived around 7:30 a.m., and the place was already starting to get busy. Food They offer a very interesting assortment of donuts, including flavors you don't typically see elsewhere. Options like Blueberry Cheesecake, Brown Butter Hazelnut, and Cuban Coffee Cake stand out. I chose the Cuban Coffee Cake. It was essentially a spiced coffee cake shaped like a donut, topped with plenty of glaze and crumble. The portion was generous. It could easily feed two people, but I managed to finish the entire thing. For a beverage, I ordered a Mocha Latte. The flavor was very good, but it was served on the cool side. It was completely cold before I finished, and I ended up tossing the last portion. They only serve drinks in paper cups, not ceramic mugs. Although mugs were visible, I was told the health department does not allow them to use them. For me, coffee in a real mug always feels better than paper. Service I have mixed feelings about the service. The person taking my order seemed a bit on edge. When I asked about the mug situation, she appeared annoyed that I would even ask. Since it was my first visit, I asked about the most popular donut, and that also seemed to irritate her. I rephrased and asked for her personal favorite instead, which she answered more willingly. I noticed a few other staff interactions, and the overall tone of the crew felt tense. Not sure if that's typical or if it was just a busy morning. Atmosphere I took a small table inside to finish my coffee and donut. There are several small tables, best suited for two people. Toward the back of the dining area there were boxes and pallets visible. This isn't necessarily a place you visit for ambiance. Most people grabbed a box of donuts and left. Only a handful were dining inside. If you want a good donut with creative flavors, this place delivers. Just don't expect a relaxed coffee shop experience with welcoming, friendly staff.

    Came here the other day with a gf of mine and we ordered the Maple Bacon donut and the Cuban coffee…read morecake donut. Both were really good but I would say the maple bacon one was better just because the Cuban Coffee Cake was thicker, more doughy. But the flavor was delicious on it I just liked how soft the maple bacon dough was. Either way, I can't wait to come back and try more flavors. The coffee was really good as well! Scott was so great, such a pleasure to meet. Will come back very soon!
