If you're searching for a charming escape from the hustle and bustle of Palm Beach, look no further than Via Roma Café. Nestled in a quaint alleyway off the upscale Worth Avenue, this delightful café is a must-visit for both locals and tourists. With the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafting through the air, you can indulge in a vibrant menu filled with whimsical literary-themed dishes that add a unique twist to your dining experience.

As you step inside, you are greeted by a cozy decor that invites you to relax and unwind. The café's seating is limited—just a few charming tables for intimate conversations—but that's part of its appeal. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it the ideal spot for a quick coffee break or a leisurely lunch with friends.

On the menu, you'll find a variety of mouthwatering options that cater to all palates. Start your day with the Goldie Lox—a perfectly crafted bagel topped with cream cheese, smoked salmon, fresh tomato, red onion, and capers, all bursting with flavor for just $15. Or perhaps the Monte Cristo will catch your fancy—an irresistible croissant stuffed with ham and melted Swiss cheese for a mere $12. And don't miss out on their creative drink options, like the Murder On The Orient Espresso or the Thank You For Being Latte; each sip is a true delight.

Customers rave about their experiences, with one saying, "I've found my new favorite café in Palm Beach," and praising the outstanding service provided by the welcoming staff, especially Ms. Summer—a purveyor of joy and caffeine. Another guest, a book lover, adored the clever puns found in the food and drink names, noting how they added an extra layer of fun to the café experience. The limited outdoor seating, although cozy, is perfect for those who want to enjoy their foods and drinks while soaking up the sun and atmosphere of this charming locale.

However, as with any gem of its size, Via Roma Café does come with minor drawbacks. A few patrons have mentioned that the café's smaller size means it's often bustling and perhaps not ideal for larger groups. Seating is limited, and there are no bathrooms for customers—a detail worth keeping in mind. Nevertheless, the café serves as a perfect pit stop before heading to the nearby beach to make the most out of your sunny Palm Beach day.

In all, Via Roma Café presents the perfect blend of delightful eats, enchanting environment, and spirited service. Stop by for a nourishing sandwich or a revitalizing latte and let it captivate your senses. Whether you're starting your day or taking a break in between shopping sprees, this little café is an enchanting treat waiting for you in the heart of Palm Beach.

I've found my new favorite cafe in Palm Beach, thanks to most amazing, wonderful, chef and purveyor of joy and caffeine, Ms. Summer. Tucked away on one of the many cozy vias here on Worth Avenue next to the world's greatest rare bookshop, you can rest assured you will not have a better start to your day than a visit here first. Muah!

Via Roma Cafe is a charming little café tucked away just off Worth Avenue. The literary-themed menu is so fun—great names for sandwiches and drinks that make the experience special. I loved the smoked salmon bagel and the iced latte, both fresh and flavorful. The outdoor seating is small but perfect for a quick coffee break or light lunch. The staff was friendly and welcoming, especially during my visit. It’s a great spot to relax, people-watch, or grab a quality coffee before exploring the shops nearby. A perfect hidden gem if you’re in Palm Beach!

Paid $10 for a smoothie. Wasn’t worth. Customer service was alright. Workers weren’t too friendly. It’s a cute little place hidden in the alley. Outdoor seating and indoor seating are limited. More like grab and go place.

I love it here! As a book lover the puns in the food and drink names are all so cute! It’s such a bright and pretty space. I wish there were chairs at the tables inside, but the outside tables are nice and covered too! I’ve been a fan of Raptis Rare books for a long time, so I’m so excited to see them trying something new:)

Tiny cafe in the center of the upscale Worth Avenue shopping district. Located inside an alleyway off Worth Avenue. Pretty decor. Seating for approx 6 to 8 people. Service is friendly. No bathroom for customers. 10 minute walk to the beach. Acai bowls are good here.

Cool little cafe nestled in the courtyard of a building located next to a nice cigar bar. Nice place to grab a quick bite and get back to checking out the beautiful area it’s located in. Service was great. Menu had some great breakfast items and lots of coffee choices. I got the cold brew and it was delicious. Thanks!!
