Arts & Eats Café — Restaurant in Fort Myers

Arts and Eats Café is a funky, fun little cafe nestled comfortabley within the heart of the Union Artists Studios on the campus of the Alliance for the Arts. The cafe provides with a unique breakfast/lunch experience that must not be missed! Enjoying delicious homemade food amoungst some of southwest Florida's most dedicated and creative artists. To start with, their locally roasted coffee, made any way you desire, latte, espresso Americano, with the bonus of sipping from a artisan, locally made mug that you may purchase! And the simple grilled cheese, sublime! Perfectly crispy toasted buttery bread with gooey melted cheese, perfection! Yes, they have tomato soup to accompany that sandwich. And the cakes! Jamie makes the most delicious cakes to go with that coffee! This place quickly became one of my favorites! David Acevedo and Jamie Burnett, pour their love for good food and great Art in one eclectic, old key west style building to give a great lunch/ breakfast/ snack...

Arts & Eats Café is such a gem in Fort Myers! This place is so unique and creative, and I love that they give local creators a platform to showcase their work. Every room and hallway is covered in art that’s all available for purchase at very reasonable prices—it feels like walking through a gallery while enjoying a café.

The food and coffee were both amazing, and the prices are very fair. Beyond being a great spot to eat and relax, they’re doing important work to empower voices in our community, which makes supporting them even more meaningful.

I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind...

Had lunch here the other day while up in that area and decided to stop off and check it out and pick up some of Tonys' bunch of delicious goodies that are sold here. It was a cute place and the art on the wall is really cool. We walked around the art gallery there and checked out some of the local art on the walls. What a cute, eclectic place to go and relax, read a book, watch painters work, and get some really good food and desserts. We will definitely be back and may check out some of the events...
