Gold Coast Cafe

A good corner store and cafe, and in a nice area for walking; AWESOME coffee and delicious breakfast bagel sandwiches.

When I stumbled across Gold Coast Cafe, one of the high tables was filled with four older women catching up over a cup of coffee. They told me they have been meeting at this little neighborhood cafe for years. That captures the essence of Gold Coast Cafe. To the tourist, it's a simple bodega in 16th Street Heights with every staple you want from fine wine and cheese to ziplock bags. However, to the local, it's a gathering place serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and a decent cup of coffee at that. There are a few small tables and window seating with plugs so you can bring your computer!Pro-tip: If you love a good red velvet cake, Gold Coast Cafe makes a good one for $4 per slice.

Super cute corner store that delivers a taste of anything you might seek in a neighborhood market. Really, all I ever want is an almond milk latte, and they serve it up beautifully here. For now, they don't even charge an arm and a leg for it! Good selection of sandwiches and salads made to order by awesome people who own and work at this store. There is a nice selection of pastries and cake slices, too, as well as bakery cookies. Note: there is vegan carrot cake.As for everything else, I am impressed by the intelligent choices they have for food, staples, beverages and snacks. By that, I mean there are some of my favorite tortilla chips, gluten free flours, almond milk, chocolate, raw nuts and other miscellaneous edible items available for purchase. They also sell wine, milk, grab n go beverages, granola bars, fruit pieces, smoothies, etc.Really though- I just want almond milk lattes from this place... I like the window seating!

YUMMY!! First time ordering and certainly won't be my last. Everything was fresh and delicious. We ordered a BLT, the Cajun chicken panini, a Greek salad and a Caesar salad and they were all a hit. Portions were great as well. I'm new to the neighborhood and will definitely continue to order from this cafe. Thank you!

First time here at Gold Coast Cafe. It's a Saturday morning and the place is empty. It's cold and it's pouring; the smell of coffee and pastries combined is heavenly and I had a very pleasant experience. The hot chocolate was just right, the sandwiches were great (BLT+Ham), and the ambience was peaceful. Definitely coming back.

Super cute corner store. Nothing fancy, but great for what it is. They have a good selection of sandwiches, coffee, and baked goods (including yummy looking cakes!) I got a Cajun chicken panini and it was good. It also came with a small bag of chips which was a pleasant surprise. It is not "gourmet" but definitely a good little neighborhood deli. Plus, the service is great and friendly. They even recognize their usual customers, which is one of the best parts of any local deli/cafe. They also have a pretty good selection of wines. Overall, it is a nice neighborhood staple.

I adore my neighborhood market. As a matter of fact this is the second one in my neighbor. The reason I adore this so much is that they can make you specialized coffee and you can get a nice pastry. Also there is an abundance of wine and beer to choose from. The customer service is excellent!

Loved the little corner store and cafe! The store had a little bit of everything and the owner was so so nice to us. We were visiting from out of town and needed a few things to get by from wine to razors! Will try the sandwiches next time!

I great community asset with good coffee, food, friendly, knowledgeable service. And just about everything you'd need somehow packed in this little gem!

A treasure in our neighborhood, 16th St Heights. Easy to call them a convenience store, and they fill that function, but such a fine selection! They go far beyond what you'd normally find. Virgil's cream soda, Tate's chocolate chip cookies, local beers...I'm always amazed at what I find. I always leave with more than I planned to buy. Comfortable for lunch, with good food. And they're the nicest people.
