Breakfast and coffee in Boca Raton: diners, bagels and cafes

Last checked Oct. 8, 2026. Refreshed every three months.

Breakfast inside Boca Raton’s city limits is spread out: two places on Federal Highway in the east, a diner on Spanish River Boulevard, a cafe at the Boca Raton Innovation Campus and a breakfast chain on St. Andrews Boulevard near Glades Road. Most close by mid-afternoon.

How we made this list. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside Boca Raton’s city limits, the same data behind our local directory, checked against each place’s own website on Oct. 8, 2026. We added The Griddle and Le Petit Poussin Cafe from their own sites, and we checked every address against the U.S. Census Bureau’s geocoder. Bagel shops and cafes with a Boca Raton mailing address on Glades Road west of Florida’s Turnpike, State Road 7 and Powerline Road are in unincorporated Palm Beach County, so they are not here. We left out cafes whose websites no longer load and coffee chains whose store pages did not show hours when we checked. The list is alphabetical. It is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it. Run one of these places? Write to us to correct your entry. Weekend brunch has its own page.
