Cafecito

We were headed to the subway and saw a sign that simply said coffee. In need of caffeine, we stopped in. I had a chai con leche and my daughter had a matcha with oat milk. Mine was perfectly delicious and aromatic. She enjoyed the matcha and said she probably should have had them add a sweetener. The oat milk upcharge was $0.50. More places are offering dairy alternatives for free, but I’ve seen it $1.50 elsewhere in town—so it seemed reasonable. We split spinach and cheese and veggie empanadas. They were hot and served with a pleasant verde salsa that was flavorful but mild on spice. The empanadas were 2 for $9 and with the drinks and tip, we spent about $25.

Matcha with coconut was absolutely the worst I’ve ever had. No matcha flavor, there was like literally 2 sips because too much ice, and it was 7$!!! Never go here.

Best empanada I have found since I visited Argentina 25 years ago. Spicy beef mince perfectly seasoned. Would have been actually perfect if it had green olives and chopped egg in it too, but flavour was great, and very affordable.

I tried the veggie and the chicken with spinach empanadas, sooooo delicious and flavorful! Their chai was also yum! The staff was super friendly, which is much appreciated. Can't wait to come back and try other things in the menu.

Great sandwich and coffee! Reasonably priced and nice staff ☕️🥪
