Pumpkin Spice Stops Around the Grove

As the tropical heat of Miami begins to mellow and a light breeze drifts through Coconut Grove, fall makes its subtle arrival, and with it comes that unmistakable craving for all things pumpkin spice. Whether you’re a devoted latte lover, an ice cream enthusiast, or simply someone who can’t resist the comforting blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and pumpkin, the Grove offers a delightful mix of local cafés and familiar favorites ready to serve up your seasonal fix

Pura Vida

Pura Vida is beloved for its seasonal Pumpkin Spice Latte, made with espresso, pumpkin puree, and a sprinkle of nutmeg. It’s a great first stop when you want the classic fall vibe without leaving the neighborhood.

Chill-N Ice Cream

For when the weather is still warm but your taste buds want fall — Chill-N offers pumpkin spice flavorings for its ice cream, letting you chase that pumpkin sensation even with a frozen treat. 

Le Parc Café

Le Parc Café brings a touch of European charm to Coconut Grove, and during fall, they serve up a rich and aromatic pumpkin spice latte that perfectly balances espresso, pumpkin, and warm spices. Pair it with one of their fresh pastries for a cozy, seasonal treat.

Brewing Buddha Café & Arthouse

Brewing Buddha blends art, coffee, and creativity in a laid-back, artsy environment. Their seasonal pumpkin offerings are a crowd favorite, crafted with playful flavor twists that make each sip memorable. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy your fall drink surrounded by local art and a welcoming vibe.

Starbucks

Sometimes you just crave the classic. Starbucks delivers with its signature Pumpkin Spice Latte and the ever-popular Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew. Reliable, familiar, and satisfying, it’s ideal when you want that quintessential taste of fall.

Other Cozy Cafés Worth a Visit

  • Panther Coffee — A staple in the Grove’s coffee scene, Panther offers a perfectly spiced pumpkin latte, showcasing their expertly roasted beans with a seasonal twist.

  • Crema Gourmet — Known for gourmet espresso and a welcoming atmosphere, Crema’s pumpkin spice latte is a must-try for fall aficionados.

Tips to Max Out Your Pumpkin Spice Game

  • Ask baristas directly. Even if a café doesn’t list pumpkin spice, many are happy to add pumpkin syrup or spice mix upon request.
  • Check seasonal menus early. Pumpkin spice typically appears in early to mid-fall.
  • Pair with a treat. A pumpkin latte is even better with a baked good — muffins, cinnamon rolls, or spice cookies amplify the fall feeling.
