We had passed signs for Micanopy on our travels around Florida and decided to stop in and go to the Old Florida Cafe. It was so relaxing after driving for a while. The town is beautiful and the restaurant is a great place to eat. They have sandwiches and comfort food, along with fresh brewed coffees and homemade desserts. Everyone is very friendly and the prices are fair.

The Reubens and grilled cheese were very good, however, some of the meat was tough and extremely chewy. The coleslaw was fantastic, and my lunch companions enjoyed their sides of rice and beans. My tea was brewed, but my 2 guests had a can of diet coke and a water. For 3 of us, Including tip, it was just shy of 60.00. I'm giving it 5 stars because the service was fast, and the food was tasty.Vegetarian options: Extremely limited menu overall, and less for vegetarians. Unsure if the rice and beans are vegan, but if you're a vegan, you're probably going to have a difficult time.Parking: It's downtown Micanopy. We parked about a block away and walked.

In an historic building located in an historic village, this restaurant offers fabulous Cuban entrees, my favorite being vegan Cuban black beans with yellow rice. The flavors are phenomenal. Don't let the timeworn building and sleepy old town atmosphere produce any hesitancy... the experience is unforgettable. Order inside and enjoy dining outside surrounded by eye catching foliage and shaded by old living oak trees graced with Spanish moss. This is Old Florida at its BEST! And this restaurant honors Cuban culinary tradition! Seize the adventure, time travel. You don't want to miss this experience!

Traveling through Micanopy this is a must stop shop. I personally like the early lunch time here. Nice and quiet with outdoor and indoor seating available. Dogs welcome outside.Between sandwiches, café, and desserts, it's hard to pick a favorite. Enjoy some cubano coffee, on the patio with a slice of keylime pie. You won't be disappointed.Portions are small, but mighty with taste and quality.This is a spot to come back to. Enjoy the history, and drop some coins to keep the staff.

We were headed north on 75 and it was well worth the 5 minutes or so it took to reach the Cafe from the highway. The server was very friendly with useful menu suggestions, wide variety of choices, and my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our sandwiches. Save room for dessert. (Added bonus: the Cafe is in a small historic town which post-Covid would be fun to explore.)

What a gem! We were lucky enough to be in Micanopy at lunchtime and had delicious cubanos, coffee, and desserts here. The personalized service makes all the difference here! Comfortable cafe in a beautiful old town!

I've been wanting to come to Micanopy since I saw it in Doc Hollywood as i love small towns. We decided to have lunch.The cage is somewhat hidden behind bushes. My wife had the cuban & I had the reuben with red beans & rice (they were out of slaw) and some key lime pie. Everything was good but I was a little disappointed that you had to pay extra for sides since everything is a la carte. The prices are really good so I guess it's not all that bad. Both of us ate for $26.I would go back next time I'm in town since the food was good, the staff are very friendly and the ambiance was awesome. If you're ever in Micanopy, give them a try.The picture is fun or take looking out toward the street.

In your heart of hearts, you know Florida isn’t about Miami and glamour, it’s about small towns with huge oak trees dripping Spanish moss and dappled shade. It’s about slowly eating lunch under an umbrella listening to the katydids buzz while sipping sweet tea. This place lives up to its name and if you miss it you’ve made a mistake. Their Cuban with mahlo pork added is the sandwich to have… and it’s so good you’ll wish you’d saved room for more. Yes it’s an extra mile off I75, but it’s worth the drive for this slice of what Florida can be. I know my planning from now on is going to include an extra hour to wander it’s shops and enjoy this awesome sandwich.

Good service and good food! We tried the Cuban and BLT sandwiches and a huge slice of cake. Will definitely return for lunch when back in Micanopy.

Nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seatings. I had a cuban sandwich and the staff were very nice and friendly to allow me to have half a portion. My husband had the mojo bowl with pulled pork and the bowl was adequately portioned with beans, rice and pork. They are tasty and the environment was cozy and comfy.

Really cool little place to grab a bite to eat. It's a really quaint, old town type of setting, with other shops and restaurants nearby that you can check out. They have great Cuban coffee, Cuban sandwiches, and Cole slaw that's incredible. They also have a wide variety of desserts that vary each day for you to try. The red velvet cake is delicious! Highly recommend.

I would have given this place 5 starts but I felt a little rushed, I was enjoying looking around but I guess the cashier wanted me to put my order in so I was unable to take me time. The cafe con leche and the Cuban were on point!!! I think that was my favorite food in Micanopy.

Excellent sandwiches and very friendly service from the locals, very welcoming. The homemade deserts looked amazing, yet we were full from our lunch. Will have to get back there on an empty stomach just for the deserts.It's a great place to grab a bite and check out some antiques. There are lots of cool and interesting things to look at. The tables show a lot of history. Our Florida table was so cool. Remember many of the items shown from growing up in FL.Old Florida Cafe is definitely a must stop!

When in Micanopy antique hunting must stop by the Old Florida Cafe for a cuppa coffee and some pie. Skinny makes an excellent Tangy Reuben with a side of slaw. Finished up with their banana pudding.

If I had the option of a negative star rating, I would have rated it negative -2 star. Close to 2 hours for 3 sandwiches. Not only we waited 2hr the sandwich were mediocre at best. This has been my worst dining experience in recent memory.
