De Facto Cafe in Largo is a neighborhood spot that wears many hats, easily shifting from a bright, welcoming coffee shop during the day to a relaxed wine and beer hall by evening. Located on W Bay Dr, it offers a casual yet thoughtfully curated atmosphere that appeals to both locals grabbing a morning cappuccino and groups out for laid-back weekend evenings with cheese boards and drinks.

The cafe's coffee program, featuring standouts like cappuccino and Turkish coffee, draws in regulars who appreciate well-made, smooth brews paired with fresh food options. The vibe leans warm and cozy inside, with stylish decor that feels modern without being pretentious. Outdoor seating is available too, offering a pleasant spot to enjoy sunny Florida mornings or evening breezes, which fits well with the laidback Largo lifestyle.

Particularly inviting for those who want a community feel, De Facto works as a daily stop for a quick caffeine boost or a weekend destination to unwind, catching a DJ spinning on certain nights. The combination of good coffee, approachable food, and a well-stocked wine and beer selection means it’s not just a place to start your day but one to linger into the evening. The friendly service and pet-friendly policies add to its easygoing charm, making it a comfortable spot for locals looking to relax, meet friends, or work remotely.

Parking is free and convenient, a practical detail that adds to the overall ease of visiting. Whether popping in solo for a morning fix or gathering with friends for a laid-back evening, De Facto Cafe balances the energy of a coffee shop with the sociability of a neighborhood bar, all wrapped up in a clean, well-maintained setting.

De Facto Cafe, Clearwater If you’re looking for an amazing spot for breakfast and coffee in Clearwater, De Facto Cafe is a must-visit! We were there today with family and everything exceeded our expectations. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious, and the coffee was rich, smooth, and perfectly made. The atmosphere is warm, stylish, and welcoming, the kind of place you want to sit, relax, and enjoy every moment. An outstanding café with incredible food, great coffee, and a wonderful vibe. Highly recommended, we’ll definitely be coming back again and again!

Great spot for coffee inviting and colorful. Nicest bathroom on the planet. Dog friendly.

What a coffee shop gem! Love seeing spots popping up in Clearwater and revamping the area. This spot is super cute, great coffee and food. They have plenty of seating indoors along with an outdoor patio area as well. It turns into a wine bar at night and on the weekends they have a dj. Love supporting local places!

The atmosphere was so comfortable and inviting it made me forget how dreary it was outside! The service was amazing and fast, the sandwich I got was outstanding, and the tea was just the right temperature (hot, but not burnt). I also appreciate the attention to detail and quality, especially with the ingredients and gold utensils (and the teaspoons have little floral handles!). Overall a great experience and one of my new favorite lunch spots

What a treat! Small but upscale with tasty drinks and very friendly service. I had a drink I have never had before: a salep -- a creamy Mediterranean hot milk drink. They also offered a variety of pastries. It was a great cool morning drink. Highly recommended shop!
