Little Ruby’s is coming to Florida! The popular New York City cafe, known for its “Bronte” burger and Australian–inspired breakfast dishes, is planning to open at CityPlace in West Palm Beach at 700 S. Rosemary Ave., according to the Miami New Times.
The third brand from Los Angeles-based Wish You Were Here Group, Little Ruby’s, is slated to debut in Florida in 2027.
What Now Houston reached out to Wish You Were Here Group Managing Partner Jason Bartucci to learn more about the upcoming opening. Unfortunately, we did not hear back by the time of this publication.
“The Wish You Were Here Group is intrinsically tied to beach culture. Our own hospitality histories began in the Northern beaches of Sydney, and our branding and identity from the very first Ruby’s have aimed to bring this laidback Australian beachside ethos to the US hospitality scene,” the hospitality group’s website reads.
“Since 2002, Little Ruby’s has brought Australian cafe culture to New York City, offering casual, locally sourced cuisine, specialty drinks, and a full coffee program,” the Little Ruby’s website reads.
“Open for brekkie, lunch, and dinner 7 days a week, Ruby’s iconic menu features our signature bronte burger, taste-driven pasta, bowls and salads, and brunch classics like ricotta hotcakes.”
The brand expanded to multiple neighborhood locations across NYC, including Soho, East Village, Murray Hill, and the West Village. Little Ruby’s opened out of state, including Santa Monica, California, and Uptown Dallas in February 2026, under the Wish You Were Here Group.
There are now at least six Little Ruby’s Cafe locations, five in New York City and one in Texas serving Dallas and its visitors. The brand was working on opening another in the Greater Houston region of Texas. As the brand continues to grow, we’re sure we will hear more details about grand openings, expansions, and more. So keep your eyes peeled and your ears perked for the latest.
Little Ruby’s is anticipated to open at CityPlace in West Palm Beach at 700 S. Rosemary Ave. in 2027.
