Local favorite Sunshine Coffee just opened a North Beach flagship
Sunshine Coffee, the homegrown brand known for its cheerful vibes, buzzy drinks and must-have treats, has officially opened the doors to its new flagship location in North Beach.
The new café at 7351 Collins Avenue sits in the same neighborhood where founders Alan Philips and Gelareh Mizrahi live with their four children. Through that proximity, the couple has created a business expansion that’s more like an open invitation to the surrounding community.
The new space was designed to capture the carefree spirit of a Miami beach day, with soaring curved ceilings, a dramatic wave-inspired coffee bar and a color palette that flows from sunshine yellow to ocean blue. It’s a sunny space that both a coffee shop and a happy beach getaway.
Fans of Sunshine Coffee’s signature drinks will find plenty to celebrate. The beloved Miami Iced is on the menu alongside favorites like the Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Bananababy and the nutrient-packed Super. Matcha lovers also have reason to rejoice, thanks to an expanded Gelly’s Matcha lineup, featuring colorful creations including the popular Baby Blue Butterfly Vanilla Matcha topped with strawberry foam.
Of course, Sunshine Coffee wouldn’t be Sunshine Coffee without a playful menu. Established winners include the internet-famous Pancake Cake, Brown Butter Focaccia Cinnamon Roll, Truffle Hashbrowns with Caviar and fresh-made Sundrop Doughnuts. New additions such as the Spicy Tuna Wrap with Crispy Rice Crumble and Huevos Rancheros Burrito add even more flavor to the mix.
Perhaps the biggest splash comes from an exclusive new soft-serve program available only at the North Beach location. Choose from naturally-colored yellow vanilla or blue Greek yogurt soft serve, then turn them into dreamy creations like the Sunshine Affogato or the cookie-topped Dream Team.
With two locations now open and plans to continue growing throughout Miami, Sunshine Coffee is establishing itself as a neighborhood café, a gathering place, a local landmark and place to grab a daily dose of both caffeine and sunshine.
