Readers had plenty to say after the first coffee guide, and their comments pointed to new cups worth chasing. Following 4 coffee spots in Nassau to start your day, this list adds four places with very different moods, from a cozy corner near Parliament to a Parisian café inside a resort. Ratings below were checked on Google and Tripadvisor in October 2026 and can change over time.
1. Olde Nassau Cafe: The Local Hideaway
At 22 Parliament Street, Olde Nassau Cafe sits in the heart of downtown Nassau. It holds 4.5 on Google across 101 reviews and a perfect 5.0 on Tripadvisor, where it has only five reviews so far.
Google reviewers keep returning to the same details: homemade cakes, board games on the tables and wifi. One reviewer called it the best latte in Nassau, and another noted that almost everyone inside seemed to be local. The cafe also sells sea moss gels and sea moss lemonades, and one guest mentioned a vegan dish of the day. It is the kind of coffee shop in Nassau where a quick stop easily turns into an hour.
2. Bon Vivants: Lattes by Day, Cocktails by Night
Out west in Sandyport, at 401 Sea Skye Lane, Bon Vivants works as a café in the morning and a bar after dark. It scores 4.7 on Google across 502 reviews and 4.8 on Tripadvisor across 66.
On its official website, Bon Vivants describes itself as the first true cocktail bar in the Bahamas dedicated solely to the art and history of the craft cocktail. The concept draws on Bahamian history and on the life and writings of Ernest Hemingway, and the name comes from a French term for someone who lives well. The bar says it squeezes only the freshest citrus and uses local farm grown produce. Google reviewers often mention the lattes and pastries, so the same seat works for a morning coffee and for a drink later in the evening. According to its Google listing, it opens at 8 a.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. on weekends, and stays open until midnight or 1 a.m.
3. Café Madeleine: A Little Paris at the Resort
Inside Grand Hyatt Baha Mar, Café Madeleine brings a Parisian mood to the resort. It holds 4.5 on Tripadvisor across 407 reviews, where it ranks first among dessert spots in Nassau, and 4.1 on Google across 281 reviews.
According to its official page, the café serves Mojo coffee alongside freshly baked pastries, New York style bagels, quiche, croque monsieur and French macarons. Desserts include house made gelato and sorbet, and guests can sit indoors or out on the patio. Breakfast brings options such as avocado toast, fresh squeezed orange juice and fruit with yogurt. Hours vary by day, so checking the official page before heading over saves a wasted trip.
4. The New Duff: Coffee With a Bahamian Classic
The New Duff, at 139 West Bay Street near the Fish Fry at Arawak Cay, is a duff kitchen first and a coffee stop second. It earns 4.9 on Google across 1,610 reviews and 4.9 on Tripadvisor across 519 reviews, where its cuisines are listed as Caribbean, café, fusion and Bahamian.
Duff is a traditional Bahamian dessert, and the kitchen gives it a modern twist. CEO Kendrick Delaney Jr. describes duff as a humble dessert once boiled in the pillowcases of Bahamian grandmothers and now steamed in bamboo baskets. Its guava version is mentioned in more than 200 Google reviews, followed by cinnamon rolls, breakfast sandwiches and stuffed buns. The kitchen serves hot coffee or tea for breakfast, which makes a slice of duff and a warm cup an easy local pairing.
Planning a Coffee Route
These four spots spread across the island, so the choice often depends on the plan for the day. Olde Nassau Cafe is the easiest pick for cruise passengers, and the Nassau cruise port arrival guide explains how to get downtown from the pier. The New Duff is a short ride west, while the other two call for a taxi. For a full morning out, these Nassau breakfast spotspair well with the list. With a cozy downtown corner, a cocktail bar, a resort café and a duff kitchen, these more coffee spots in Nassau cover every kind of morning.
