Delicious Key West inspired meals, cozy tropical atmosphere inside, and kind staff serve up for reasonable prices. Healthier options available, well priced desserts.

We love this place so well plan our meals when they open at 5:00. Everything is freshly cooked to order. Gotta try the garlic mashed potatoes and white fish made your way. We usually enjoy a glass of wine or beach cocktail and munch on the complimentary honey, butter croissant while we wait for the magic to happen.
Everyone knows the owner, Terri, since she greets you and lets you know what she just got at the market. If something isnt listed on the menu the way you like it, shell accommodate your tastes. How great is that?! Always delighted with the results.

Imagine receiving a gift you didn't even know you wanted.
That is the Winey Beach Cafe !
While taking a stroll down 119th street I finally was able to enter this delightful boutique cafe with niche hours .
Finally !
Imagine my delight when I opened the door .I was immediately transported to what had the actual feels of a beachside cafe .
Yay for me , because anyone who knows me knows I don't care how 5 star or Vip a trip is it's not a vacation until I hit the beach .
So in my beachy vibe of way way too happy to be inside
I greeted the other patrons who were indeed getting their GRUB ON . They returned the greeting and returned to eating .
I promise you they weren't even talking to each other . It was them 100
vs
food 0 .
The plating was clean and the portions were ample so Mother was not hating on them at all Get it y'all
I was greeting by a 100,017 watt smile and seated. Juliana proceeded to tell me the specials. Feeling bougie,I threw caution to the wind and said bring me what you will of the specials from the meal to the drink .
I'm in the keys y'all
Now I did check the vibe and said ok Key West theme . As long as it's not roast pork (pork) coconut or pineapple I'm goodc. Buccaneers etc smoked meat blah blah and remember I had the other patrons who were all forks and elbows so no trust issues or Spidey senses activated
LET THE GAMES BEGIN
So Julianna delivers the drink of the day
Day at the beach
a refreshing mix of fruit juices and rum
Then what I believe was manna from heaven was placed in front of me a flaky warm croissant textured bread literally dripping in honey butter. Folks if it wasn't from heaven then it must have been hell because it was sinfully delicious.
On cloud 9 and I haven't even gotten my entree yet!!!
TA DA!
In front of me I have the freshest tastiest vegetarian black beans and rice seasoned with all the right herbs and spices with olives to round out the earthiness and ....risking no taste because they are not flavored with meat !
Honey hush your mouth and eat because there is more . Crab cake(s). Did you see the S? That two fist size cakes baby , fish sticks which are more like 1/3rd of a filet and very meaty , boneless grilled jerk chicken strips, Beach Cafe salad and beautifully steamed broccoli.
Then the topper was CHEF TERRY comes out to meet me !
Top tier experience Chefs Kiss meal Delightful Beverage
All for wait for it ....
$22.00
Get there immediately and you better tip Juliana at least 25%
I will be back !!!
Shout out to Terry and Juliana
Vegetarian options: The vegetables are super fresh ! They offer not only a grilled veg plate but also a wrap and a number of other things like bruschetta as well as salad !
Dietary restrictions: The food is balanced with healthy as the forefront and yum yum tasty as the result . Whereas lots of chefs rely on stocks or fat base to flavor their Caribbean inspired foods Chef Terry uses the correct blend of spices and additives like olives to broaden the taste . So if you're concerned about fat, sodium ,pork etc Release your worries at the Winey Beach Cafe
Kid-friendliness: It is kid friendly as the room is a open floor plan with plenty of room for high chairs ,but because of the intimacy of the room it wouldn't be fair to other patrons They also open only at the dinner hour and close at 9 . They are also closed on Sundays .
So although possible not really a good idea .
