    Seasonal menu

    Great spot to work at or come out to hang. There's plenty of seating and it's pretty quiet in there. I saw a few dogs come in and out too. They had some seasonal drinks available as well. They were quite a bit pricier ($8 for 12 ounce) but yolo. Workers are friendly and my order came out pretty quick.

    5 Stars for an excellent cappuccino, empanadas, and spot to work for a few hours. I needed a place to get caffeinated and do some work before heading to the train station and Wells was perfect. They're clearly a coffee-first spot and their drinks come highly recommended. I appreciated that they had more substantial food than your average coffee shop so I was able to get a few empanadas for lunch. The communal table was filled with folks on their computers (and a few furry friends hanging out below) and everyone was incredibly friendly. The wifi was solid and I didn't feel rushed to finish my drink as there were still spots for others to sit and sip. Overall, this is on my list for great coffee in the area!

    One of my favorite coffee shops in South Florida. Its consistency is what I come back for. My usual order is an ice latte and zucchini bread. There aren't a lot of places to get zucchini bread and for it to be moist and well balanced is a huge win. On occasion I will try their breakfast options without the meat and a spinach pastry - all very good. Wells is a drive fwhich I have done just to get their coffee to brew at home. The shop itself has a roast station in the corner and plenty of seating to meet with friends, read, work, and just hang out. Bathrooms are always clean. Staff is very informative on grind options for different coffee equipment and they are very sweet. I have only had great interactions!

    Rose latte

    Wells Coffee is such a cute spot to study if you're in the downtown Fort Lauderdale area. The drinks are really good, and I'm especially obsessed with their rose latte. It's a great place to sit and get work done while still enjoying the vibe. The only downside is parking--it can be a little tricky, but if you come early enough, you can usually find a spot out front without having to pay.

    Inside
    Rickey S.

    I always enjoy a stop at Wells when I'm in the area. The coffee is strong and they are quick behind the counter. They roast their own beans, which I love to give as gifts. The inside smells heavenly and is usually busy with people working or chatting. Parking can be a bit difficult, with many businesses sharing the spaces. Go early and enjoy a leisurely coffee in this local shop!

    Croissant ham and cheese, huge

    Coffee roaster in the middle of a very cool area. Dogs allowed so this was cute. Inside had plenty of open seating. Locals and pick-up orders were coming in consistently. We joined the line and ordered for 6 of us, and the girl at the front taking our order was very standoffish. She was not kind from the start. It was almost as if our existence bothered her So that was a weird beginning experience. Service needs improvement. Menu is cute and literally the food in a display case. Fun to see. Major coffee line in the back, open for viewing also. We loved this experience. Food wise, everything on the menu has cheese, and nothing could be modified. We ordered almost 8-10 items. I had higher expectations for the taste of the coffee and breakfast items, however everything was pretty mediocre. Pricing is super high. Many other bakeries/coffee spots better in taste and customer service. I rate this place average, and I rarely do. The dogs were cute though!! Pistachio coffee - good Strawberry coffee - not our favorite Cold Brew - good Vegetable pastry - good Meat pastries - good Butter Croissant - crispy and fresh, delish Croissant Ham Cheese sandwich - largest thing here Chocolate Loaf - ok Almond Croissant - best thing here!!

    When you see roasting equipment and smell freshly roasted beans, it's a good sign. That's the case here. They do small batch roasting. You can taste the flavor when you get any of the drinks. A big step above others I've tried. Super good espresso and even drip coffee. Went here three times while visiting the area. It's worth a stop. I bought some of the roasted coffee it was so good!

    We love Wells and I enjoyed this location with better parking than the other Fort Lauderdale in Downtown. ++Curry sweet potato chick pea empanada YUM ++Broccoli Gouda frittata YUM ++iced coffee with pistachio YUM ++cappuccino YUM ++espresso YUM Lots of good seating spots, lots of people on laptops. Good flow of dogs coming in and out, glad to see they are pet friendly. This location also has some different flavor bags that we haven't tried yet so picked up new flavors for home.

    Caramel cappuccino
    Mary M.

    Such a cute little coffee shop! The vibe is great -- people chatting, others working on their laptops, and just an overall cozy energy. The lady who took my order was super nice and welcoming. I got a hot caramel cappuccino, and it was really good -- perfectly balanced and not too sweet. Definitely a nice spot to relax, get some work done, or just enjoy a good cup of coffee.

    Oatmilk iced latte with their cold foam from the banana tini drink
    Ashley Y.

    I was in the area and wanted to try a new coffee place and this coffee did not disappoint! It was a cute coffee shop that was quite busy with people working on laptops and a very hip environment. It had a cozy feel inside and they even have an area when you walk in where they are crafting their coffee beans which I thought was neat. I asked the barista for a recommendation since it was my first time and I wanted a latte. She recommended getting the cold foam from their banana-tini drink on top of my latte so I took her suggestion and WOW! It did not disappoint. I highly recommend this drink. I would definitely go back

    Best coffee I had in South Florida. In a more industrial neighborhood in Fort Lauderdale, Wells Coffee Company roasts their own beans from Latin America and Africa. To drink, I really enjoyed the iced latte. My wife ordered a seasonal strawberry matcha drink and loved it. The space is large with plenty of seating, outlets, and Wi-Fi.

    Wells is a cute, quiet coffee shop in Flagler Village. It's a large open layout with a lot of natural light and bags of coffee beans on display. They have more of a traditional coffee menu, with some seasonal options, so it's a good place for serious coffee fans. If you're not a huge coffee drinker (like I'm not), it may not be the place for you-but they do have teas, chai, and matcha. In terms of food, they have a selection of muffins and pastries, but no hot food. Wells is a great, quiet place to go study or sit for a while and have a good cup of coffee

    Jackie S.

    They offer a nice array of coffee and tea options. Be prepared for your clothes to smell like coffee the rest of the day because they're roasting while you're sitting there. That's never happened to me before. There's not much seating next to outlets and the seating is usually full but they do offer extension chords that you can plug in to charge things. Service is usually friendly and quick. There's free parking out front if you can snag a spot.

    Before I ever tasted a single bean, the name stopped me cold. Calusa. A roaster bearing the name of…read morean Indigenous people -- the Calusa, the ancient shell-mound builders, the unconquered lords of South Florida's mangroves and waterways. People who never surrendered. People whose bones are folded into this very soil. As someone who walks through this world carrying Taíno blood and the memory of peoples whose names colonizers tried to erase, that word hit different. It wasn't a gimmick. It wasn't a logo. It was a declaration -- that this land has a story older than any espresso machine, and somebody here understood that. That understanding alone earned my curiosity and my respect before I'd even stepped through the door. "The name carried the weight of a people who never bent. That's the kind of legacy worth building a roastery around." Then I learned the story behind the man behind the roaster -- and it only deepened my respect. Luis Arteaga came home from serving in the United States Marine Corps and did what so many veterans do: he looked for work. No fanfare. No red carpet. Just a man with discipline in his bones and calluses on his hands, trying to find his next mission in a civilian world that doesn't always know what to do with people like that. He found his way to the original owners of Calusa Coffee Roasters. They saw in him what the Corps had always seen -- dependability, grit, and a willingness to learn. They gave him a job. A floor to stand on. And Luis did what Marines do -- he didn't just fill a position, he grew into something greater. Over time, through sweat and dedication and an unmistakable passion for the craft, he rose to become the owner of the very roastery that once took a chance on him. That's not a business story. That's an American story. A veteran's story. And it's exactly the kind of origin that makes a cup of coffee taste like something more than coffee. CALUSA COFFEE ROASTERS IS A SOUTH FLORIDA INSTITUTION Fast forward to today, and Calusa Coffee Roasters isn't just surviving -- it is a staple. Walk into the right cigar bar on a Friday evening and someone at the table will mention the name. Sit down at the right diner counter on a Tuesday morning and a regular will nod toward that familiar bag. In South Florida's rich, layered, cafecito-and-culture coffee landscape, that kind of word-of-mouth is earned over years of consistency, of showing up, of never letting the cup get small. Luis continues to build something that belongs to this community -- rooted in the terroir of a region as complex and layered as its people. The coffee is exceptional. Bold where it should be bold, nuanced where it earns it. The kind of roast that makes you sit down instead of rushing out. That's no accident. That's someone who respects the craft because he was forged in institutions that demand nothing less than your best. "When a Marine finds his mission in a roastery, every bag he puts his name on carries the same standard -- do it right or don't do it at all." Meeting Luis was one of those moments I didn't expect to move me the way it did. We are both moving through the coffee world trying to build something that means something -- something rooted in identity, in service, in the belief that what's in the cup should tell a story worth hearing. And here was a fellow Marine who had walked a road I recognize: uncertain ground, earned footing, and a refusal to quit. And finally, if you are in South Florida and you have not made the pilgrimage to Calusa Coffee Roasters on Commercial Blvd, you are overdue. Go for the coffee -- stay for the story. And if you're lucky enough to meet the man himself, shake his hand. He earned it in more ways than one. To Luis Arteaga and everyone at Calusa: thank you for carrying a name that honors this land. Thank you for honoring the service that shaped you. And thank you for a cup of coffee that carries the weight of all of it without spilling a drop. Semper Fi, brother. Keep roasting.

    It's a cute coffee shop in an unexpected format. Cozy to sit inside…read more But the coffees and baristas' experience are horrendous. And I didn't expect much, but I definitely expected from "roasters" more than extra dark coffees and barista who could not do not an overextracted bitter hell of an espresso. Even milk in a flat white couldn't beat that bitterness in it, and that tells a lot. I always get espresso, flat white and pour overs to try a new coffee spot, and it was a miss on all three of them. Okay, I decided to give it a try for their beans, and asked for something light roasted and got a bag of Costa Rica Tarrazu roasted a week ago from them with words "it's medium-light. Guys - it's so "medium-light" that it would perfectly work for any Cuban place or Starbucks. Not even close to "light" or "medium". So overall - cozy and cute place that has potential and horrible coffee and underqualified staff that ruins that potential completely. Do not recommend.

    Argyle coffee has been popping up all over the place and for some reason my husband thought that…read morethey had a coffee shop. So we did a few drive bys trying to find the shop. Lol One Saturday after a horrible breakfast experience, we decided to do another drive by and noticed the doors open. So we parked and proceeded to go in. We were immediately greeted by Manny, the owner. He had just opened up and was getting ready to start his day. Felt kind of bad walking in but he was gracious enough to give us a tour of the shop and even explained the roasting process and what each machine did. As if the tour wasn't enough, he even offered to give us a private cupping session. It was so awesome! We learned the proper way to make coffee and had the opportunity to try some. Ended up tasting the Ethiopia and Colombia. The Ethiopia was nice, light, and had an interesting flavor. It was like tea and I enjoyed drinking it as is. The Colombia was also tasty but on the bolder side. Fun Fact: did you know... bitter tasting coffee can be caused by the water being too hot or by over steeping. Delicious coffee... Super nice owner... recommend stopping in and getting your bag of beans! This location is not a shop! Lol But they welcome customers to come in to buy coffee bags and hang out.

    If you think you're a coffee lover then pay a visit with Manny. He has a passion for the bean and…read moregenerously shares his interest. This is not a coffee shop but a wholesale outlet for coffee beans. On Saturday he will sell coffee directly to the public in 12 ounce bags or more. You'll learn about variety and regions, complex and simple flavors as well as how to store and prepare your Java. If you want decaf, cream or sugar then this is not your place. The atmosphere is simple and that works fine. Just as Manny says 'if you feel like you might lose an organ, you're in the right place'. I was in the right place and the taste of the coffee was well worth the treasure hunt to find this coffee pro.
