¿Dónde parar a comer durante el viaje a Key West?

The Overseas Highway turns the drive to Key West into part of the trip rather than dead time between Miami and a hotel. The route runs through a chain of communities where a meal can become a useful break from driving, but trying to stop at every famous place defeats the purpose. A better strategy is to choose one stop based on when hunger arrives and perhaps a second later in the Keys.

In Islamorada, Midway Cafe & Coffee Bar works for coffee, breakfast or an earlier pause, while Bad Boy Burrito - Islamorada makes sense when the trip reaches Islamorada closer to lunch. Hungry Tarpon Restaurant adds a waterfront setting to the decision, turning a meal into more of a Keys stop rather than merely a refueling break.

Farther south in Marathon, Keys Fisheries puts seafood directly into the road-trip narrative and is useful before the final stretch toward the Lower Keys. Burdine's Waterfront offers another waterfront pause in Marathon, making it an alternative rather than an additional mandatory stop. A traveler who already ate in Islamorada can simply keep driving.

Let the highway set the rhythm

Travel & Leisure describes the Overseas Highway as a 113-mile route through the Florida Keys, and current travel coverage continues to treat food stops as part of the experience rather than detours from it. The practical plan is simple: choose the restaurant that fits your position and appetite, leave enough daylight and patience for the rest of the drive, and resist turning a beautiful road into a checklist.
