My wife and i ate breakfast atJoe's on Sunday morning. Joe made a couple breakfast burritos for us that we're spot on. The surprise was the fantastic coffee. Oh as the breakfast blend and the wife had a heartier brew. Both were delicious. More

I enjoy supporting a local business that is willing to step up and go it on their own against the "big boyz". After speaking daily w/ IJ's owner it is obvious to me that he truly takes pride in the products that he offers. The good news here is that in spite of my personal political views Island Joe's truly... More

Although the espresso is very good here, I have ordered on the Nov 25th and still no coffee pods have arrived. I ordered the 100 espresso pods and put in two tickets with no answer. I tried to email via website and also directly without answer multiple times. I also called the phone number with only the fax picking up.... More

Hi First, we are very sorry for the slow shipping and response. Our backend on our online site was corrupted - the files - more than likely, because of something I did, so we were not getting orders or seeing request for almost two weeks, which we are now online. But for example we no longer offer the 22ct espresso... More

Forget the chains and stop into Island Joe's. It's only a block off of Duval and has far more choices and charm. More

Island Joe-- he's a laid back Key Western dude who has a passion for coffee and a talent for baking. He's not the perky java type, but this man has some bad skillz when it comes to breakfast and loves what he does. We went back-to-back mornings on our last trip to Key West because the coffee was so delish... More

Stopped by this place for breakfast, looked at the menu posted in the window. Upon placing our order, each time we were told they didn't have it. We went through this three times. We settled on breakfast croissants. The girl who took our order was training another girl. When she brought our order, every croissant was not what we ordered.... More

I am very sorry for your bad experience and assure you I was awake at 4am, when I made the pastries. I try to undercook them just a touch, because I bake so early, thus when they are heated, they come out just right. It is Sept in KW and many places close for weeks at a time, but we... More
