Breezeblock Coffee

I love this small coffee bar, between Bayside and the Brightline station, just inside the lobby of the new Alea apartments complex. It's an easy walk to the Brightline station , and a much better option than you'll find inside the Brightline station.5 star service: the young guy behind the coffee bar was terrific, fast and friendly. We shared a laugh because I hadn't read closely on someone else's sign pointing down the alleyway ( toward a bar not a coffee bar). We both agreed I needed caffeine quickly to hit on all cylinders.5 star coffee: the coffee was freshly brewed and strong. It was the perfect brew for early in the morning. I didn't grab any food but the coffee was stellar.5 star ambience: the location. Was not only convenient but had nice decor and a laidback vibe. The same space leads to the mailboxes and elevators for the apartment building above, so it's busy even at an early off hour. It's close to the downtown branch of Miami Dade College so feels very college dining hall, in a good nostalgic way

This place has no way to correct something wrong if you leave with the wrong drink then oh well they are going to be rude to you when you're explaining to them what happened instead of making it right. Get a phone number listed so ppl can call and talk instead they have to go here and leave reviews like this because you think it's cool to skip having a line of communication open for your customers. It's about time I lett a review for this place they also charge automatic tip included 18% for drinks that never come out that great! That's what to expect here in miami where the face & look of something is much more important than the quality of what you're paying for!

Came to Breezeblock Coffee as I've heard good things and always on the look out to check out a new coffee shop. It's located in the downtown Miami area inside the lobby of a hotel. Staff was kind. There's a nice and ample seating area. I ordered an iced latte with regular milk. It was pretty standard in coffee shop prices coming up close to $7 with tip. Coffee comes in a cute little cup. The taste of the coffee was really off for me. It tasted very fruit forward and burnt. I honestly couldn't drink the coffee. I want to come by and give it another chance and see if it was just an off day. I didn't get to try any of the food items but they do look good as mentioned in other reviews

Great CoffeeHad the Cortado with Oatmilk and thought it was delicious. Also great place to hang out, catch-up, or study. It's nice and quiet, there are plenty of tables and a couple couches to settle down in. The baristas were awesome as well, they didn't want to close the cap on my to-go coffee because they wanted me to see the foam art. So sweet.

Best coffee in Bayside Miami! Check out Breezeblock located inside The Alea where you can grab a perfect cup of coffee to start your day. The vibes are immaculate and immediately greeted with a smile by the staff. Their chai is made in house and it's some of the best we have had. Order some breakfast like avocado toast or a breakfast sandwich or if you're getting coffee, I suggest the house drip or a latte decorated beautifully with latte art. This place is huge inside but you still feel right at home

Our cruise stopped in port for a few hours, and I had researched coffee shops to try, and now I feel like I made a mistake of picking Breezeblock, since the overall experience left a bad taste. Not really sure how previous reviewers were able to stay long enough to get any work done, or "hang out", seeing as I'm writing this review after getting "asked to leave because you've stayed longer than 30 minutes." We sat for about 55 minutes. I believe it was the concierge of the Alea residential that asked us to leave. The space looked shared, as were the restrooms, as was the table we were sitting at. There was no signage asking people to limit their stay or that there is a limit. Not to mention the space was nearly empty - because had it been busy, I would have understood asking us to leave. We were 2 people, just minding our own business, enjoying our drinks until we were asked to leave. We weren't being distracting or making any loud sounds. How do you pick and choose who you ask to leave...? If not for the getting kicked out for no reason, it would have been 4-5 stars, so the 1 star is for the drinks and the baristas. The drinks themselves were fine. The matcha was sifted properly and was not gritty like some places who don't do it right. The baristas were nice. Please also note that 18% gratuity is automatically added to your order. Don't give this coffee shop your business unless you want to be kicked out, based on how you look (after reading additional reviews, it looks like they kick out guests who stop in port on cruises).

Cool coffee spot in Miami Central Business District! Wanted get some work done while enjoying a drink + pastry and found this was a great spot to do so!The interior was very modern, sleek, and had touches of greenery all around. We realized upon entrance that it sat right below an apartment complex, and it also served as sort of a lobby area for residents/ guests coming and going--didn't mind as there was ample space, and I enjoy people-watching. We ordered a matcha latte with vanilla + almond milk (up-charge for flavor), ham & cheese croissant ($1 up-charge for adding egg), and an iced salted caramel latte. The barista was kind and the order came out pretty quickly. Drinks came out nicely--the iced latte tasted like a sweet dessert drink and the matcha was a little above average in my opinion. It looks like they use counter culture for most of their coffee. For their matcha, not sure where it's sourced and if they use ceremonial grade, but it's definitely better than what some other local coffee shops call matcha--I'm just picky when it come to matcha! I also thought the croissant sandwiches were a bit overpriced, but it was prepared nicely and pretty filling.Overall, I'd come to do work here again! Not sure if I'd come to just get a drink and hang, but I was glad I stopped by.

Little hidden coffee shop close to bayside! Best coffee I've had in a while, super chill spot

I ordered an iced chai latte which was pretty average. They have a really nice seating area with wifi though. Only downside is there are very few outlets, so you may want to come with a fully charged laptop if you are looking to work.

Miami doesn't have a lot of great coffee but Breezeblock is a gem. Great matcha, lattes, and specialty drinks. All the pastries I've had have been pretty good, too. Some reviews have complained about getting kicked out but I've lived in this building for over a year now and I've never seen anyone be asked to leave. They all seem to be cruise people though so maybe it has something to do with them generally being the worst.
