Past security, Concourse D has the most Cuban coffee counters at MIA, and E has one by Gate E5. Everywhere else the cafecito sits before security, in E and F, so get it on your way to the checkpoint rather than walking back out for one.

Cuban coffee locations and hours by concourse

These are the daily hours in our venue listings. Use the gate number to find the right counter. The E and F locations marked before security are on the public side of the checkpoint.

Concourse Counter and location Listed daily hours
D Café Versailles, by D5, after security 4:30 a.m.–10:45 p.m.
D Café Versailles, by D20, after security 5 a.m.–10 p.m.
D La Carreta, by D37, after security 5 a.m.–10 p.m.
D Café Versailles, by D44, after security 4:30 a.m.–10:45 p.m.
E Café Versailles, Departures Level 2, before security 4 a.m.–10 p.m.
E Sergio’s Cuban, by E5, after security 6 a.m.–8 p.m.
E Café La Carreta, Arrivals Level 1, before security 5 a.m.–9 p.m.
F Café Versailles, Departures Level 2, before security 5 a.m.–10 p.m.

MIA files Versailles and Sergio’s under coffee and local flavors, and Greater Miami’s tourism site names both for Cuban coffee.

The food directory doesn’t identify a Cuban coffee counter in G, H or J. It lists Sergio’s GO by H12, but gives no coffee menu for that location. Check the coffee and bakery listings for a nearby fallback rather than heading to H12 on the strength of its name.

Pick your stop before you walk

In D, stay where you are and pick the Versailles counter closest to your gate, or La Carreta by D37.

In E, Sergio’s Cuban by E5 is the only counter past security. If you’re connecting, use the terminal map and connection guide before changing concourses or leaving the secured area.

On the arrivals level, Café La Carreta in E suits a coffee while you meet someone or right after you land. If you go landside during a connection, allow time to pass through a security checkpoint again.

Order the coffee you mean

Greater Miami’s tourism site describes a cafecito as a small, sweetened espresso. A cortadito adds a splash of steamed milk. Café con leche has espresso and steamed milk, while a colada is a larger portion of espresso shots meant to share. If you don’t want sugar, ask for sin azúcar when ordering. For anything else, ask at the counter.

Our food directory lists hours, not Cuban coffee prices or each counter’s full menu. For a late-night fallback, MIA lists a 24-hour Dunkin’ before security in F. It isn’t listed as a Cuban coffee stop.
