Key West, Florida
Indie café on Southard Street with a trans flag logo since 2015
An independent cafe on Southard Street, two doors off Duval in the heart of Key West's gay district. The shop roasts single-origin Colombian beans, brews cold brew with coffee ice cubes to prevent dilution, and makes breakfast and lunch sandwiches on Cuban bread — conch fritters, avocado toast, and all sauces in-house. Founded in 2015 by three friends from Cape May, NJ. The logo incorporates transgender flag colors. A second outpost, Keys Cafecito, operates inside the Hyatt Centric on Front Street. Open 7am to 7pm daily.

Florida's gay resorts are spread across five cities with very different styles. Here is the statewide picture: which cities have clothing-optional men's resorts, which have gay hotels anyone can book, what each one's own site says it costs, and where to go deeper.

Key West is down to four gay-owned or gay-centered places to stay after Equator Resort closed in January 2025: two clothing-optional men's resorts, one adults-only guesthouse that welcomes everyone, and the hotel that shares its grounds with a nightly drag cabaret and the Sunday Tea Dance. Here is what each one's own site says about who can stay, where clothing is optional, what it costs and which weekends carry minimum stays.
