Grou Coffee

Coffee lemonade, cold foam and a room to work in

The Mojito Brew is the drink that explains Grou Coffee: coffee lemonade, cold and bright, the kind of order that only really makes sense in Miami. Around that sits a full specialty bar, with cold brew and a shakerato on the chilled side, flat whites, vanilla lattes and espresso on the classic side, and a pistachio cold foam latte for anyone who wants the sweeter end of the menu.

Matcha has its own corner, running from a straight matcha latte to strawberry matcha, and brewed coffee covers both batch and pour-over. Fresh-roasted beans go home by the bag. Food is treated as brunch rather than an afterthought, with an açaí bowl, salads, a baked lasagna and pan de bono, the Colombian cheese bread that is the most local thing in the case.

Built for lingering as much as ordering

The Coffee and Cowork name is literal. This is a café designed for people who intend to stay: comfortable seating, WiFi, and a covered outdoor terrace with tables and benches in the heart of Coral Gables, a short walk from Shops at Merrick Park. Live music and local pop-up markets use the same terrace, which keeps the place from feeling like an office annexe.

It also works as a room to book. Birthdays, networking evenings, panels and group catering all happen here, and the tone stays professional without turning cold. The result suits a laptop morning, a slow brunch and an evening event equally well, which is unusual for a café this size. It appears in the Eater coffee guide for 2026.

Order the Mojito Brew, then add pan de bono

Start with the Mojito Brew if you have never had it. Coffee and citrus sounds wrong until it is in front of you, and it is the most distinctive thing this bar makes. If that is a step too far, cold brew is the straightforward version of the same lane and the shakerato the shaken espresso middle ground.

Pan de bono is the food order to add: warm, chewy and quick. For something larger, the açaí bowl is the brunch standard and the baked lasagna the surprise on a coffee menu, while a salad covers the lighter end. Anyone settling in to work should order the batch brew and a bowl, then choose a second drink from the matcha side of the board.
