Sugar Apple runs Key West's organic grocery shelves next to a fully plant-based cafe and juice bar on Simonton Street, the market open later than the kitchen.
Tip: Everything is plant-based, so no menu-decoding needed; lunch service winds down at 16:00 with the market open later.

Date & Thyme feeds Key West vegetarians from an organic cafe and market on Fleming Street, with Buddha bowls, avocado toast and smoothies until 14:00.
Tip: Most dishes are vegan or convert easily; the grab-and-go fridge solves a beach-day lunch before the 08:00 crowd clears.
Bakery$$historic-seaportDaily 10:00-21:30
Kermit's bakes a dedicated gluten-free key lime pie beside its classic at Elizabeth Street, so coeliac visitors get the full Key West pie ritual too.
Tip: Ask for the gluten-free pie by the slice at the counter; the frozen chocolate-dipped bars are built on the standard crust.
Brewery$$old-townDaily 11:00-22:00
Southernmost Pint brews every Key West house beer gluten-reduced or gluten-removed and runs a dedicated gluten-free kitchen behind its 18 house taps.
Tip: The 2026 brewery guide documents both the gluten-reduced tanks and the separate kitchen; confirm dish-level questions with staff.
Mediterranean$$new-townDaily 07:30-00:00
Kennedy Cafe cooks to midnight in New Town and delivers until 23:30, the late Mediterranean kitchen that feeds Key West's hospitality shift workers.
Tip: The operator lists halal options across its Mediterranean, Turkish and Uzbek menu; confirm item-level status at the counter.

Mam's Best Food is the Florida Keys' one kosher kitchen, an Israeli tented counter on Petronia Street under Florida Keys Kosher supervision.
Tip: It closes for Shabbat every Saturday and queues build in Jewish holiday weeks; the falafel and shawarma are made to order.
