Crema's Take

Central Coffee & Sandwiches nails the essentials with genuinely excellent Cuban sandwiches and creative cold brews like their beloved PB&J blend that regulars keep coming back for. The breakfast burritos are legitimately memorable—filled with quality ingredients and even thoughtful touches like included Cholula packets—and their classic cortaditos and café con leche are made with the care that makes a difference. It's the kind of unpretentious downtown Tampa spot where people walk several blocks out of their way because the food, coffee, and prices all actually deliver on what they promise.

I came here a few days ago and had the breakfast burrito & PB&J cold brew. Both delicious & reasonably priced. If you like sweet lattes you will like the PB&J cold brew. Today I came back for another breakfast burrito and tried the churro latte. Very good as well! Anytime I have a layover in Tampa I will be back!

I got an egg burrito with bacon and sausage. I swear the flavor of that burrito was probably top 3 breakfast burritos I've had ever. They even included a tiny Cholula packet that I had no idea existed and it was just the cherry on top. 10/10 would highy HIGHY recommend eating here for breakfast. Also their Cafe Con Leche was good too.

In Tampa for a few days and my main goal was finding a Cuban sandwich spot. A little research and this seemed like the one. Ordered a cuban and a cortadito, both were outstanding. Fresh ingredients and excellent bread made this sandwich extra special. Delicious coffee. As fantastic as the food was, the service was extraordinary. Regarding the atmosphere, it’s a food truck in a parking lot. But it’s 75 and clear skies, what else do you need? I’m here a few more days. I’ll be back.

YUM 🤤 1st visit. Was fantastic! Walked several blocks to visit this location due to Google ratings. Waited about 10 minutes for Cuban after placing order. A+. Tampa Cuban was awesome. I have had a lot of Cuban sandwiches in my life and many around time claim to the the best… and are small and don’t have good ingredients … not this place. A+. Cuban was amazing. Prices are to be expected downtown. Sandwich & drink was $14 ish before tip. Only 1 spot to sit so most take their order to go. They offered some can drinks such as Sprite. I even contacted them after the fact, for a question, via email and they responded quickly. 📝: next to the history Tampa Theater and their decor is great!

Great place downtown Tampa. Got the Cafe Con Leche (3.75) and Cuban toast with bacon and cheese ( 6.75). And both were delicious! Coffee was hot and fresh Sandwich was fresh and the bacon was crispy. Can't wait to come back and try the lunch.
