La Bottega Caffè in Fort Lauderdale - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Hidden gem. Highly recommended.

I'm doing a complete tour of the eastern shore of the United States. I decided to make a stop in the middle of my leg from West Palm to Miami. I needed some coffee. I didn't expect anything. However, I immediately felt transported back to Italy. The owner and me had a good chat in Italian and some other customers joined in. Plus the coffee and food were great. I asked for a ham sandwich and the owner suggested one with tuna and artichokes instead. What a sandwich! 100/10 I would recommend everyone to frequent La Bottega Caffè.

Love this local cafe, the best cappuccino and best croissants in Fort Lauderdale! Salvatore is a gentleman and really takes care of his customers while serving great food.

This is my neighborhood gem. I love coming here for coffee business meetings. They have comfortable chairs and tables where you can sit and have a meeting or just relax. I have not eaten here yet however I came with a friend a few weeks ago and she said lunch was very good there.

Beautiful shop and great service

Cozy coffeshop :) Loved the decaf latte and cheesecake. The owner is awesome. He gave me a cookie after i paid 🍪

This place could not be better! Salvatore is kind and friendly, his food is delicious and he truly knows how to keep his clients happy. It’s nice to go to a place every morning and feel at home. Thank you salva!

The best Italian coffee shop in Fort Lauderdale. This is the only restaurant I can eat and enjoy excellent high quality food. The coffee and the croissant is outstanding!!!!!

Best cappuccino, and best espresso ever. I had an amazing time at this cozy place. The atmosphere, as if you are in Italy. You can't go wrong stepping into La Bottega Caffe.

I l♡ved this coffee shop. The owners know their customers by name and that really caught my attention. We don't see that in this new environment of self. My Americano, was excellent! A warm hug in my belly. And the avocado toast was delicious 😋. Highly recommend you try them out.

Place is awesome !! Must check it out !! Get the Pasta!!!

Coffee was delicious and the owners were super nice! A must visit

Come here often and the experience is always great and accommodating. The owner is the most genuine guy ever. Love this place 10/10 recommend coffee, sandwiches, pasta dinner, it’s all amazing. Especially the desserts!

It’s not just a place to come and eat it’s like having an extended family as well as great food!

The latte I just bought was small but delicious 👌

Ándate liii dopo 8 anni finalmente capuccino e brioches italiane go there is authentic Italian was only for one day but make all my vacation thx

If you are looking for little touch of Italy in Fort Lauderdale, this is your place! Salvatore makes the best cappuccino and makes you feel right at home. Food is delicious and the warm and friendly atmosphere makes me want to come back again and again! 🇮🇹

We couldn’t wait to come back! And it was still amazing! Iced cappuccino is the best we’ve ever had. Croissants are delicious, especially the lemon cream. And the avocado toast is incredible! We’ll be back tomorrow if not later today! 😃😃😃

Starting my day at La Bottega Caffe is always fascinating. As soon as I step in, I am immersed in an authentic Italian atmosphere where everyone speaks Italian, and it feels like I am in Italy itself. It's a daily learning experience where I expand my vocabulary with new words, gain a deeper understanding of Italian traditions, foods, music, soccer, and politics. It's a unique start to my day that I always look forward to, and the food is outstanding.

We had delicious lasagna, salmon, tiramisu, and cappuccino!

Amazing services and the food is delicious x I really recommend this restaurant place!

Great café. The drinks and pasties are delicious and the service is impeccable.

The divine coffee ♥️ The most delicious food in Fort Lauderdale

Salvatore and Emanuela are amazing!

Are you looking for a classy, authentic Italian coffee place? La Bottega Caffè is the place. I found this little-yet amazing gem-about a year ago and it has become my most favorite place. I’m a cappuccino lover… can’t find ANYWHERE here in Florida a real-Italian cappuccino. The owner, Salvatore, has become my hero. He spoils me with an authentic cappuccino, creamy, thick, luscious, perfect temperature, and right size. And if that is not enough bliss, ask him for a freshly baked cornetto alla crema. You will go to Heaven. It’s an italian croissant with a velvety, smooth, not too sweet pastry cream. Do you want to have lunch as well? The menu is not huge but just the right size to have just fresh amazing items in the menu. Italian pasta cooked al dente (Finally !Alleluia!) , lasagna ( made with fresh pasta), penne all’arrabbiata baked branzino, panini, eggplant parmigiana, lentil soup.. among other delicious items, including a simple bruschetta .. toasted to perfection to dip it in the sauce and enjoy up to the last drop of homemade “sugo” with an illegal “scarpetta”. Desserts are made by an “imported” Italian baker, (you must try La Merengata cake), and you can even find some traditional Italian Sardinian cookies!!! All of them are handmade and artisanal. Perfect for the coffee. The atmosphere is relaxing, welcoming and very, very friendly. Salvatore will become you like a friend as he always takes care all of his customers personally. I have seen a lot of his customers having lunch and dinner on the same day!!! Craving a glass or a bottle of wine instead of a coffee? This is the place. Come and give this little hidden gem of Fort Lauderdale a try. You will know what an Italian welcoming caffè is all about. I promise you, you will become addicted to being spoiled by Salvatore.

A wonderful Italian cafe ran by the best! The cafe smells like Italy, tastes like Italy and feels like Italy. If you miss home then come to this slice of paradise away from home.

Nice place to have a good coffee and pastries

Wonderful local Cafe. Coffee, sandwiches, soup, delicious!

Sal is super welcoming, the food is delicious, hanging out with the local customers made the experience even better!

Best coffee ever and best cornetti

The best espresso and croissant in area.

More than in Italy! Here I drank a creamy coffee like nowhere else !

Really cute cafe, perfect for an informal chat over a cup of coffee

I felt like I was at a high-quality, homey cafe in Italy. We had the cappuccino, iced latte, avocado toast, and caprese panini, and all were fresh tasting and exceptional. Thank you!

Excelente lugar!! El cappuccino es espectacular y los paninis son deliciosos!!! La atención es de 10! El lugar es muy acogedor y la comida toda riquísima!

Excellent coffee, pastries and very friendly service. It felt just like walking into a small cafe in Italy. If we were locals it would be a daily stop!

This place is amazing! I highly recommend getting an iced latte, it is the best in Fort Lauderdale. The meringue cake is divine and everything on the menu is fresh! This is one of my favorite places to grab a quick bite. Sal always takes care of my business partner and I on our much needed mid day breaks.

Great little cafe! Amazing atmosphere, very cozy, a little on a smaller size, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. I had a croissant, which was freshly baked and tasted delicious, and a cappuccino, which was very flavorful. Thank you for everything! We will be back!

This place is an hidden gem that offers an authentic Italian experience! We have been delighted by the amazing panini with prosciutto and mortadella, and will definitely bring our son with us next time for a salami one :) Real expresso is available as well. Best with a piece of cake...Truly recommended.
