One of a British-run mini-chain of chic cafés, Balans is ideally located for people-watching on Lincoln Road in South Beach. The all-day hangout serves everything from cornflakes and pancakes in the mornings to globally inspired fare such as Niçoise salad, Thai shrimp soup, pastas, and Balans signature lobster club sandwich at lunch and dinner. Garden landscaping surrounds the outdoor tables, peak perches in prime time.
