Madruga Bakery

Came here on a Saturday afternoon and it was very crowded and busy! We had to wait only 5 minutes so I was pleasantly surprised. We came in for a coffee and a quick bite!Ordered the chicken empanada and an iced coffee. The chicken empanada was delicious although not warm enough. The iced coffee was bold and delicious just as it should be. Will definitely be back to try more times on their menu.

The baked goods are exceptional. I feel like they're made with that loving touch. The lemon polenta cake (wheat free) is my fave! Their breakfast sandwich (with extra kale) is one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have ever had.The place is ALWAYS busy and crowded. You might have to wait a bit for a seat as there isn't much of it, so prepare to possibly take your food to go. Madruga Bakery yummies are great for a breakfast/brunch/lunch in the park.

Madruga Bakery has been consistently wonderful for years. They have cemented their place as an excellent establishment in Miami. You can easily identify that every item is made with love & fresh ingredients.My favorites are the Porridge, the Serrano Sandwich, & their Chocolate Chip Cookie. All are simply made & always delicious.I appreciate that their kitchen is always full of staff that you can tell are working hard to provide great food. Even though I have experienced long lines at times, I have always been greeted with a friendly smile & have experienced excellent service. I only wish they had a larger space to accommodate more seating.

Have been to madruga bakery quite a few times now and their food never disappoints. If you're coming on the weekend expect a line out the door. Thankfully it moves pretty quickly. Have ordered online for pick up and usually end up waiting so either option is probably the same wait time. My go to is usually the egg sandwich with a vanilla iced coffee. Their sandwich is so good. Have picked it up and headed to the beach and the bacon is still crunchy! Not sure what they do but it's amazing. I usually pair it with a cookie chip cookie. One of the better cookies I've had in Miami. I will say their iced coffee is light on the sweetener. During my last visit I asked the barista for a bit more vanilla simple syrup and he gave me a hard time about it. He said I had to pay extra when I already paid for the vanilla latte up charge at the register. I think if I want it a bit sweeter it should be included, I don't need a lecture on how he's going to let it slide this one time.

Madruga Bakery is so good, I'd go here again and again if I lived in Miami (I live about an hour north in Delray Beach). I love it when you walk into a bakery and you can see bakers baking in the kitchen (which is open to the entire public and store front). We ordered the lemon poppy seed muffin, and grain porridge which was much better than it sounds with peanut butter and jelly floating on top of the porridge, adorned with strawberries. We had the bacon quiche and two amazing coffee drinks. It was crowded on a stormy Saturday, but most people were able to get seats as the turnover is pretty quick.

My cappuccino was absolutely terrible here. So bad I couldn't even drink half of it. And I HATE wasting coffee. After seeing all the great reviews I'm thinking whoever made it was having an off day and messed it up? It was disappointing after waiting in such a long line that was out the door to have a bad experience. Now, the dark chocolate brownie on the other hand?? LIFE CHANGING. It was the best brownie I've ever had. I will come back here just to get that again....and maybe take a few home lol. I'm willing to give this place another try and order a different coffee. I'll update my review if I do.

I've been a fan of Madruga Bakery when I tried their flourless chocolate pecan cookies. And I've always loved it and recommended it to everybody. In my recent visit, we got to the counter to select our food items, we noticed flies and biscuit beetles around the food counter and landing on top of the open food items. Although they had two fly fans, I would say they needed two more. Ambiance:The bakery is small and the ambiance is not bad. It's usually very crowded no matter what time you go, which is unfortunate.

Love the selection of pastries and baked goods. The inside seating can get quite crowded during peak hours and that causes a lack in a cozy atmosphere but don't let that deter you from trying madruga at any time. I love the crossaints and chocolate cookie the best.

Super cute bakery and coffee shop! They have so many delicious options ranging from salads, sandwiches, and baked goods! I came by myself so I wasn't able to try everything. I tried the toast with ricotta and jam and an iced latte. It was very yummy! The bread was so dense and fresh. The only downfall is this place is popular so it's super busy! I came on a Sunday at 12 and there was a line outside to order and no empty tables. I would like to go again during a weekday and see the difference.

Madruga is a super popular place in South Miami -- particularly with the post-yoga/workout crowd and students from nearby UM -- so prepare to wait in line to order. Mine and my bf's go-tos are usually the breakfast sandwich, monkey bread, guava danish, and an iced latte. I always tell myself I'll try other things on the menu, but that never happens :)It's a small cafe so if you plan to eat in make sure to grab an open table as soon as one opens up.
