When you're hungry, this is the place! Food is awesome...ask for Steph! She's always got a smile and is happy to serve you!

So this is EXACTLY the kind of place you want to find on any trip anywhere in the country! Can't believe Guy Fieri hasn't been here! Cool vibe, beachy diner feel with great decor, pictures on the wall, a great sea themed skull logo and a huge menu! They've got everything you could want for breakfast and all the accompaniments including home made salsa, guac, sour cream, hot sauce, peanut butter, sugar free syrup. Everything you could need! We had an amazing server from Ohio, whose name I didn't catch like I should've, but a great lady and nice AND really good at her job and making conversation. The food was phenomenal! I had the breakfast tacos which were in what tasted like fresh small flour tortillas that were grilled into a taco shape and filled with eggs, meat and cheese and came with Salsa, Guac and Sour cream. They were awesome! The pancakes were gigantic and the hash browns were well cooked. The best part was that I had banana nut pancakes that weren't just regular pancakes with bananas on top like most places, but actually had bananas and nuts INSIDE the pancake, which was awesome! We also took a homemade cinnamon roll with us for the long drive! You get a ton of food, at a very fair price, with excellent service and good quality. One of my top five breakfast places we've tried! Make the stop! read more

Love this dependable eatery. Food, coffee, service...all unsurpassed We travel from thr lower keys to hang out here read more

Since this restaurant is next door to the hotel I am staying at, I should check it out. The service is on point. Didn't take much time between sitting and getting my first cup of coffee. A necessity of life. I am a bagel kind of person. They actually have two choices, Lox stacked on a bagel, or a lox plate. To me, on a plate where I have complete control is the way to go. You will get quite a spread of everything you want to enjoy. Just try it. Then it comes to the art work on the walls. Who ever did this is very talented. From the outside it looks plan Jan but really... check it out. read more

Can I add more than 5 stars? I always loved Mangrove Mike's when I used to frequent the Keys, but I hadn't been since they got new management. It's JUST as good or even better than I remember. Absolute BEST cinnamon roll ever. The Everything but the Sink omelette is delicious and the eggs Benedict too. And the tator tots had the perfect crispy to soft ratio. Really, five stars and can't wait to go back! read more

Mangrove Mike's - Cinnamon Roll - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

I tried to go to Fu__ing Bagel but they decided not to open up on time. I remembered Mangrove Mikes open early so I went there before my fishing trip. I ordered two scrambled eggs, bacon, grits, and toast. The eggs were perfect. I think there were six pieces of bacon. I loved the grits. Service was outstanding. Give this local place a try. read more

Amazing little town cafe! I knew this place was going to be good because first of all there was a wait, second there were giant homemade cinnamon rolls and cookies on display for purchase the second you walk in, and lastly it had a vintage vibe to the place. I got the tater tot tower and omg it was amazing! Have never had anything like it before! Be warned, it is a meal for about 3 people but I enjoyed every bite! Great staff, great food. Will definitely be back next time I come to town. read more

We we're traveling The Keys and upon returning to the mainland decided to stop by. The food was good and there were slot of choices.

Great breakfast! Portions were more than anyone could eat. Food was amazing. Nice local spot

Good reviews! looking for a dine in breakfast in the AC with no mosquitos. This is the place with the giant shark on the outside. Great prices and service. Busy but service is prompt and food came out quick. Portions are huge! I should have asked about the gravy in my country scramble because I thought it came on the side or at best over the house potatoes but they drench it on the scrambled eggs with ham. It had a unique flavor that I wasn't ready for but it was good. The nice thing it was piping hot. I love hot food in a restaurant. Next time I'll Ask for it on the side or try another dish. The eggs Bennies looked good. This is definitely a great spot for breakfast. And they serve till 2pm. read more

Have to be honest on my experience. Food had zero flavor. Price for 2 with 1 beer each was$75 dollars. My husband is a big guy that always finishes his food and loves hog fish but he could not even eat the $27 hog fish Benedict. It looked good, eggs were so over cooked and the fish was not breaded and had 0 seasoning. Again, just our experience, looks like many have enjoyed. read more

Super fun place with good food and good service - we were there for the Swim for the Alligator Lighthouse race and this spot was just what the Dr ordered. A 4th person joined us late, just as our food was going to come out and the waiter handled it like a champ and didn't miss a beat. We had omelets and pancakes and it was very good. I can't wait to go back again. read more

Great diner with excellent food and reasonable prices. Stopped by here for breakfast on Monday and had a great breakfast. I had the country fried steak, my gf had the fried Brie sandwich and my daughter had the unicorn pancakes. We all really enjoyed our food. Service was good throughout. Lots of cool decor on the walls everywhere. Perfect place for breakfast if you're in the area. read more

First off my husband said biscuits and gravy with eggs over easy was good. I enjoyed my hash browns but my omelet was the worst I've ever had. The texture was just strange. Thin and paper like. It was hard to eat. Coffee was just so so. Probably won't go back. Staff was friendly enough. Prices too high for quality of food. Sorry read more

If you're visiting this beautiful area and are in need of a hearty breakfast or lunch meal that'll not only satisfy your hunger and taste buds, but also help you recover from a hang over (this is actually a menu item), and have you schedule an appointment with your cardiologist - this is the place! The staff is warm and friendly. The food - tasty. The ambiance - eclectic. Just a fun, small, and busy local spot where you're treated well and you'll leave gasping for air because the food tasted so good you didn't leave anything on your plate and now you're bloated and four pounds heavier; but the visit was worth it and you'll do it again tomorrow because you wanna to try the "Kitchen Sink Quesadilla", or the "Craig's Hangover Helper". Yes, tempt your caloric fate and visit again. I dare you. As you can tell I loved this place and will definitely visit again next time I'm "in the neighborhood". Keep doing you're thing Mangrove Mike. Oh! Did I mention the tater tots??!!! I didn't did I. They've got a tater tot tower menu item. No seriously they do... read more

Love this place. We always stop for breakfast or lunch here on our way through the Keys. HUGE portions. Friendly staff. Convenient location. See you next time! read more

If you like big portions this is the place for you! With gluten free options MM (Mangroves Mike's) has plenty of breakfast options from yogurt and fruit to gigantic pancakes, hash, eggs, omelets and tater towers which is definitely shareable for 4! Coffee was excellent, hot and not bitter or too strong. The server we had was new and she did an awesome job for all the different options we threw at her. I did find the pancake a bit "tough" not as light and fluffy as I prefer. Nice people, nice place! read more

Stopped by at Mangrove Mike's Cafe for breakfast. Parking lot was limited. Upon arrival, we had to wait about m 20 minutes, but we were distracted with the little pirate museum. We were seated and we immediately ordered food. Service was great and fast. All plates were pretty good portioned size. I would return. read more

Classic diner style FL Keys breakfast. I've eaten at Mangrove Mike's several times. They have a massive menu with options for everyone. Savory or sweet, they have many of both. My favorite sweet item is the hot buns... they are a specialty that only limited number gets cooked per day, and when they run out, they're out, you can't get more. They are so delicious and worth every bite (even though its massive so I'd suggest sharing)! I love sitting at the little breakfast bar inside, makes it feel more diner-ish. And the atmosphere is very tropical, I love the aquatic paintings and the constant feed of scuba diving on TV. The breakfast meals you get aren't going to blow you away, its not fancy here. But everything is made well, large portions, and served with smiles. I usually get an omelet, with hash browns. Be prepared to wait if you arrive during prime breakfast hours. read more

Delicious food after being out in the sun all morning. Service was fast, but we ate at the bar. read more

Great food and service. We enjoyed breakfast for several days and couldn't be more pleased.

Great service! Our waiter Dylan was on point and the hostess was a sweetheart. Great food! Had large party with a 5yr old and a baby. We all ordered something different and enjoyed every bite! Hats off to the kitchen staff! read more

We stopped in for breakfast and the place seemed packed because the parking lot was packed, but we sat down right away. We ordered the oatmeal, and the kitchen sink omelette with grits. The fruit in the oatmeal tasted good and fresh. The omelette was stuffed and was filling. The grits tasted flavorless. The service was also good. read more

5-star in the diner breakfast, portion to cost, and service categories! Loved our server Kelly! Funny, friendly, and fast! Loved our crispy tots on the side and generous portions. Kitschy decor too! Fun buzzing atmosphere. Easy to get to between key largo and key west. Great breakfast! Great value! We got the eggs Benedict, tater tots, and a side of corned beef hash- all good! read more

Food was amazing! I suggest the corned beef hash. Really good coffee! Friends and fast service. Highly suggest stopping by!

We waited a long time to be seated. The staff was running around like crazy but they needed more help to serve guests appropriately. Our food also took a long time to be served and we never got part of what we ordered. The food was bland and needed more seasonings. At the end I ended up paying at the gift shop cashier since our waitress was too busy in other tables. The food was not worth the wait. read more

When life gives you a tater tot tower you have to accept. Unfortunately, I am not teenager enough to finish the whole thing. True to its name it is a tower of food - I ordered the Mexican which come with chili and guac. and a heaping side of guilt. Soooooo good! Pro tip: get the eggs on the side if you like a runny yolk If you can, sit at yhe counter to get a real diner experience. read more

Top notch breakfast. Professional serving team. I think this is a local place. I recommend the crab Omelette.

Was hard to choose a place because of so many different places on all the keys on our way back to the airport but based off the reviews we chose Mikes Cafe. Glad we did! The blue crab Benedict was amazing!!! We also enjoyed the acia bowl and Nutella pancakes. Super delicious coffee too! Service was 5*! Not sure his name but he was quick and friendly! Thank you! read more

The food was your typical breakfast diner food you'd expect, except everything including the pancakes taste the same I'm assuming everything is cooked in the same griddle without cleaning in between. The service was lackluster. Had to ask for a coffee refill. The server asked my preference on side options with no mention of upcharge. Later when the bill came, it had add on fees never mentioned. All in all, there are better places to pick from in Islamorada. read more

Loved that we found this place. Love the decor inside and out. The staff was super friendly. We walked in and were sat right away with no wait on a Thursday. Menu was pretty big with lots of options. Hubs got the French toast and oh my it was Soo good and I normally am not a big fan of French toast. The chicken salad was good. It's chunky and a lot of meat. It's a little bland but just add some salt. Fries are the wide. It thinner ones. I asked for them extra crispy and they were good. We'll will make this our breakfast spot before finishing daily now! read more
