    Great spot for breakfast/lunch. It’s definitely a “If these walls could talk” kinda place.

    This is a great place to sit outside and people watch. Everything on the menu looked tasty. I ordered the salmon omlette and it tasted wonderful. The service was amazing. Juan took great care of us and we didn't feel rushed. A definite stop if you are in the area.

    Always a fun experience to sit on the front porch, view the beach, and watch the parade of fashionable and eccentric people on Ocean Drive, South Beach. A must-do here.

    Amazing chicken sandwich! Great view of the beach. I was able to make a reservation while I was on the beach then walk to it right off of it. Great place with great staff and good history.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at News Café, and I must say, it was a delightful experience! I ordered the grilled snapper, filet mignon, and lobster tail, and each dish was exceptional. The grilled snapper was perfectly seasoned, offering a light and refreshing flavor that left me wanting more. The filet mignon, tender and juicy, was cooked to perfection, making every bite a true indulgence. As for the lobster tail, it was a standout – succulent and rich, it added a touch of luxury to the meal. Beyond the wonderful food, the staff at News Café were friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Their excellent service truly enhanced the experience. Overall, I highly recommend News Café for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food in a welcoming atmosphere!
