Moondog Cafe Key West

Alex Woodley

Funky cafe with some really wild fresh cakes and pastries. Took a while to get some attention, had a few staff clearly avoid the duty, but I was only there for some pie which was one of my favourites on the trip. The pie and amazing display case made up for the limited service I recieved (I could tell they were coming off a large rush). The items were more expensive than the rest of the places I visited in the area but I'm sure it's because of the great quality used. Very yummy

A lot of hype and it was just ok. My cappuccino was spot on! The burger was delicious (tho not cooked to order) and the key lime pie, epic. We waited in a long line. The posted menu outside was for dinner apparently and every item we had preselected was not available once we got inside. We opted for a burger. The waiter was nice but too busy and we waited for a long time for food and water. The atmosphere was ok, but felt heavily used, which it was.

Absolutely delicious. We went back for baked goods almost everyday of the trip. We went before opening to get a table for breakfast one day and it didn’t disappoint. Their chai latte and watermelon lime drink were just okay but all food was phenomenal. We had berry danish, strawberry creme danish, fun cake, key lime raspberry turnover, almond croissant, chocolate croissant, cinnamon roll and blueberry cheesecake banana pudding. For breakfast we had veggie & breakfast skillet. All delicious.

Mini Vegan Key Lime Pie Tart. Very, very good! Vegan In Key West looking for Key Lime Pie, this place was recommended to me as perhaps the only place to find such a thing. And it did not disappoint. The crust on the bottom was rock hard, couldn't be cut with a fork or knife, you had to pick it up and bite into it, but the rest was delicious. I'm glad I was able to get a taste of Key Lime in Key West, even if this is the one and only place that has it, at least they have it! P.S. If you just want bakery, skip the line at the front door and go in the side door that leads just to the bakery. We sat at an empty table next to the bakery counter and finished our tart in about 10 minutes and left. We had no problems with any staff saying we couldn't sit there. The whole experience was pleasant and enjoyable.

Found this Key West gem and it’s an amazing place. Staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Had shrimp tacos, lobster bisque and Cobb salad on the first night- everything was perfectly seasoned without being overbearing. But can we talk about the pastry puhleeeese!!! I don’t know who the creative genius is behind them but oh Lordy. The Key Lime pie is insane, best I’ve ever had. The rest of her creations are equally amazing.

We stopped into Moondog Cafe in Key West just for pastries — and it was absolutely worth it. The selection was impressive, with a wide variety of beautiful, fresh options. The blueberry bread pudding was stellar. We also tried the pistachio croissant, a crème brûlée croissant, and their rum cakes — every single thing was top shelf. As someone who’s been to some of the best bakeries in the states, I can confidently say this place holds its own. If you’re in Key West and even remotely considering a pastry stop, go.

This place took me by surprise. In a tourist town fun looking restaurants don't have to have good food to survive. By contrast, Moondog is convenient, festive, friendly, and has food that stunned me with it's freshness and quality. For instance, the fish tacos were served moist and hot, flavorful and plentiful. The salad we had was a full bowl of flavor for our vegetarian diner, and the ham and cheese croissant did not skimp on the filling! Their traditional margarita was the best my wife and I have had, actually, with a great, well-balanced flavor, supported by a base of fresh-squeezed lime juice. A watermelon non-alcoholic drink was fresh and light. The Key Lime pie was amazing, the special bread cheesecake was really solid (both homemade), and the espresso was unexpectedly bold, smooth, and super sippable, the kind you'd expect in Europe. The servers were friendly and kind, with fast service, almost zero wait for food to come out. We dined on the deck, with a fun view for people-watching and a pleasant breeze. I would definitely come back and keep trying each menu item!

Don’t walk, RUN TO MOONDOG!! This place has a great atmosphere, TOP KNOTCH food and drinks, wonderful staff. I have celiac’s and I could’ve eaten here every day. Delicious key lime pie (mini tart), specialty coffee, breakfast tacos with shrimp, mahi wrap. My husband also loved it, he had the blueberry pancakes which weren’t his favorite, but then he got the Elvis French toast and he was in heaven. I also had the blood orange sangria (the best sangria I’ve ever had). Seriously, you can’t skip this spot.
