Pinocchio Italian Deli & Caffè

Great coffee (iced) and fast service. We did not get any food but it looked really good. The iced coffee isn’t pre-​made – they make a hot cup and then pour it over ice. It was delicious.

This is a cute shop off the strip with good coffee and pastries, but the marionette salad is delish! They take their time to prepare your items will you watch the interesting people walking on the strip in SoBe. Try the gelato it is very good. The only thing is the shop is rather tiny.

Nice staff, quick service, yummy iced coffee, DELICIOUS chicken salad — just wow. The chicken salad has excellent olive oil and vinegar (critical, really) with toasty fresh made bread with seeds and flax. I’m impressed… and starving… this is hitting the spot. I put down my fork to write this haha. There are locals in & out of here so you know it’s good stuff. Great place to pop in when you’re by the beach… even if you’re a little wet and sandy (as I am lol). If I had room, I’d try the sweets and gelato… looks super fresh.

This place is run by authentic lovely Italians who know how to make a great cup of coffee. I enjoyed the café Pinocchio!

Meh! Sub-​par coffee but great pastires!
Neat little spot just off the beach

Excellent location for a real Italian coffee and atmosphere…
Lovely owners and people…
I must for a quick break…

Good salads and paninis. The cappuccino is awesome, the location its perfect also. You should try the pinocchio salad and the top 1 panini

Great breakfast spot! Mr. G and I stopped in for lattes and breakfast before the beach. Great toasted sandwiches and the lattes were nice and strong! Service with a smile as well, and at a great price!

Stumbled on this joint after having some frozen drinks at wet willies. My wife and I shared a sandwich from this place. This café is very small and has a very European feel to it. They offer various different baled goods and their own bread baked by Pinocchio industries. They offer various different baked goods and breads to go with your cup of coffee.
With that they also offer gelato, even aspirin to recover from the place next store.
We ordered the top 3 panini. They name their paninis with ‘top’ before each selection. We had the top 3 panini which is a chicken honey Dijon mixed green sandwich. It’s top with their delicious French bread.
Great place to grab a tasty sandwich for under 10/​bucks!

This is probably the best coffee shop in South Beach of off Ocean. The service is great and the coffee was amazing! They have a descent selection of pastries to have with your coffee too.

If you are looking for a good cup of coffee, this isn’t the place. for double shots espresso late I was charged $ 6.
Wasn’t a good coffee.

their pinnochio coffee with chocolate is DELICIOUS! their poppy-​seed & tiramisu & chocolate pastries are SO GOOODD. excellent, easy going customer service as well.

Been here twice and got two very different things and loves both! Yummy panini with prosciutto was awesome. I also had the marionette salad and it was delicious! Omg the shrimp, avocado, shaved Cheese, and fresh bread really hit the spot. It has tons of cute Pinocchio decorations. You feel like you’re in italy!

Awesome coffee and paninis. Enjoyed the laid back feel to the place. Lots of cute things to look at on the wall. Me and my hubby liked it here and will become regulars. :)

Nearly everything homemade and so delicious! It also helps the credibility that the owner is from Italy. I definitely recommend.

What I like the most is making my own sandwich. All is good, not expensive and the owner is really nice. What else?!

Yes, this place has a very warm and cozy ambiance, but is their food actually good?
I ordered their «Top 1 Panini» (prosciutto, tomato, mozzarella) along with an Iced Coco Latte and my order took no more than ten minutes to arrive. However, when I started eating my panini I noticed that the cheese wasn’t melted at all and there were cubes of mozzarella just sitting there. Also there was no prosciutto to be found… not one slice! This was a key ingredient so I was really confused as to how it slipped their minds. Overall, their panini had the potential to be good but it was just okay. and that’s because I was starving so I would’ve eaten anything. Iced coco latte was alright, though I didn’t taste much of the coconut flavor coming through.
Maybe I caught them on a bad day but I wouldn’t come back voluntarily.

Pinocchio provides a laid-​back Italian café ambience amongst the hustle and bustle of Miami Beach.
My friends were walking along Ocean Drive on a budget (#problemsofbeingagradstudent) when we stumbled onto the café. $ 7-​$ 8 for a panini. Sounds about right, and yes, it was, the bread was warm, the cheese was melted, and the bread was crispy. Very good! Very delicious! I got the Top 5 choice (equipped with tomatoes, pesto, and mozzarella). A must try for a fan of veggies! Do you want to save more money? You can choose your own ingredients to make it cheaper.
When we first arrived, there were no seats available, but after five minutes, my friends and I were able to find seats, which shows to me that this place is a come-​and-​go place. While you are eating, you can look at artwork, which comes in the many variations of Pinocchio, henceforth the name of the café.
Nice wait staff! Simple and relaxing! Good paninis!
This place easily earns 5 stars, not like any of the tourist trap type of places you’ll find on Lincoln Road.

Fantastic discovery of delicious gelato and coffee place right of Ocean Ave. We ordered lemon, coconut and chocolate gelato and they were fantastic! Cappuccino was also very tasty. Great place to check it out, especially right after beach.

This is as close as I’ll get to being back in Italy while in Miami & is a must visit every time I take the trip down to sunny Florida.
This place has an awesome location right off the beach which makes it super easy to stop by for a quick breakfast or lunch. You can tell it’s super authentic based on the owners and their clientele.
I stopped here three times on a weekend trip because I couldn’t get enough of their bruschetta — just like Nonna’s back in Rome!

Loved it! Great location, amazing, fresh croissant and the espresso was perfect! The owner was super sweet and quick. The vibes are awesome and I will definitely be back. One more emphasis on the amazing location!

Yum-​my!
I had the salmon salad and it was delicious. It was fresh and refreshing and the perfect beach food. I could have used more salmon because it was that good, but overall this is a great value in the neighborhood. Grab a bite and take it straight to the beach for lunch! Then make sure you apply sunscreen. Have a buddy help you or you’ll end up splotchy like me, but that has nothing to do with Pinocchio. They are spot on!

What is with the cappuccinos and Miami! It would be difficult to judge the best cappuccino in this area and this café would be giving a tough competition. Amazing cappuccino! I felt it got over so soon. It was that amazing. :)
We also had a chocolate croissant with the cappuccino. It was great too. We had a panini (top 5) — that was the only vegetarian in the list. Very hearty breakfast. The panini had fresh tomato, mozzarella, basil and their dressing. Was very good.
Very friendly hosts. They always smile and welcome the guests with warmth.
I want to extend my stay here just for sipping these amazing cups daily.

Lovely italian place! Simple and excellent, that’s what really matters!
Came with the wife for breakfast and we had Prosciutto Panini, Cappuccino and a Chocolate Croissant… Everything was delicious.
Service was superb, we were attended in such a nice way, that we just have to come back and make this a regulat spot.
The location is small and cozy but service is fast, so there’s no waiting time.
I highly recomend thia place for both locals and tourists; it’s fairly prices so you don’t have to worry about that.
PS: they have italian Ice Cream, that looks good but we didn’t have time to try it out.

I am staying right around the corner and decided to check out Unilocal for a good lunch spot. Love how many varieties of sandwiches and lunch choices they have… wanted a quick lunch and had the tuna with capers, very good. Tried some chocolate bread it was delicious… topped everything off with a macchiato! Great service and quaint atmosphere… Kind gentleman. I will be back to try more items on the menu soon

I love this place so much, fresh delicous authentic italien food, very good prices.
I’ve been living in SoBe for three month and almost came here every day, gonna miss it so much!
All salads are very fresh and so tasty, as well as the bruschettas my favorite is the one with avocado, also love the top one Panino.
Also tried a cake that tasted very good.
You can also get real italien coffe, espresso and cappuccino.
I can’t tell how happy I am about finding this place!
You gotta try it.
Everything is so good here

Came here on a scorching day in Summer.
Ordered:
— the Top 1 Paninni (prosciutto and mozzarella) which was pretty good but the cheese wasn’t really melted
— a chocolate croissant which was really delicious but ultimately was just a nice big French croissant with a heap of Nutella in it
— an iced coffee which was pretty standard
This has very limited seating so it’s more of an «order and go» kinda place. The Pinocchio theme was pretty cool with some nice artefacts on the wall.
Service was pretty standard — you don’t need to know Italian like another poster said below, I’m not sure where that came from ha. All the menus are in English and the server and waitress both speak English.

Just had breakfast here and I love it. Ordered the Top 1 panini which was delicious. Comes with prosciutto, mozzarella, tomatoes, pesto and Pinocchio dressing. You can tell the ingredients are fresh! Also had the Pinocchio café, also delicious. Also great service, very friendly. Will definitely be back before leaving Miami.

Perhaps my expectations were too high and I ought to have remembered I was eating on Ocean Drive (or just off of it). The place is very very small and there are not many places to sit. Although the service is quick and friendly, this is the type of place where people want to sit and enjoy their coffee, and they do, which means that during the breakfast hour on the weekends, you may not find a place to sit.
We were hoping for an excellent cappuccino and we got a decent one, leaving a bit to be desired. The croissants were definitely fresh and very good. They reminded me of croissants in Paris, which is hard to come by. I was just hoping for a better coffee.
