Carmela Coffee - Stuart - Stuart (FL)

2 /5 Nikki Yaddow: Other than the great baristas that served us and cute atmosphere this place is a no go! The food is poorly prepared despite the esthetic appeal. I wouldn’t venture to go back especially at $60 a visit for food you couldn’t eat and coffee that was mediocre at best. I really do not like leaving bad reviews, but have to call it what it is. This was my first and last visit. Sadly have to give this place a thumbs down. The “new pancake” was literally the driest excuse for a pancake ever - more like a week old corn bread that they throw fruit on top of and call a pancake. The avocado toast was not toasted at all rather a huge slab of flavorless bread with bad avocado and bacon bits on top. They should invest in Haas avocados for a smoother more favorable topping and slice their bread thinner and toast it. I didn’t get to taste the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, but my friend said it was no good and only took a few bites. We hate to waste food but it all went to the trash can. Not sure where everyone sees 4.6 overall rating here- sadly not even close.

4 /5 Dominique Harris: I ordered the chicken & sweet potatoes bowl and it was delicious. There is a lot of comfortable seating and a good amount of outlets - this would be a good place to work from home. The only downside for me was the AC temperature. I originally planned to order a coffee and WFH after I finished my lunch but I was too cold to stay (I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, I would probably have been comfortable if I was wearing jeans and a sweatshirt). There is an outdoor seating area but it is not very inviting.

5 /5 Christian Merrifield: I tend to look for good local coffee shops when in areas and this one did not disappoint. I got an iced lavender honey latte with oatmilk and one of the avacado toast options, both were great and a lot of food sizing, ended up splitting it. Place was busy on a weekend, plenty of parking and got right in to order. Theres plenty of sitting options and pretty quick.

3 /5 Kaneesha Allen: My husband and I shared avocado toast, top with smoked salmon, a poached egg, and truffle oil. We added an extra egg to the toast because we were sharing. The toast was thick and fluffy, and the smoked salmon was divine, pairing it perfectly with the egg and avocado. We ordered a cold brew and added milk. The atmosphere was larger than expected and very relaxed. Several customers gathered at the many tables to talk, study, or work. Thank you Carmela , for a great experience!

5 /5 Amrita Tej Kaur: Today I visited this coffee shop to see my friend performing there this Sunday afternoon. I really enjoyed the experience starting with entering this beautiful spacious coffee shop with nice relaxing ambiance, having delicious matcha tea and snacks, hanging with group of friends listening beautiful live performance. So nice to have this type of alternative coffee shops in the neighborhood. It’s definitely a place to come back again and again. Thank you!
