We were greeted immediately as we entered. The bakery consisted of a few refrigerated displays with many different bakery desserts, a kitchen in the back, and the coffee making area.

This bakery is definitely good.

Worth driving 30+ min here every morning for breakfast.

Only downside was during our visit a couple months ago the water issues was going on so there were so restrooms. The Cuban was spot on. Slightly crispy bread, flavorful meat, tender pork and crunchy pickles. The fries were on point I'm not sure what they do to them to make them so golden and perfect. There's plenty of seating and it didn't take too long to get our food. Will definitely stop in here again when visiting.

So happy we came across this delicious hole in the wall style bakery in Vega Baja. It was so good…read morewe came two days in a row :) When you walk in, you immediately see the bakery counter filled with donuts, muffins and other traditional Puerto Rican pastries. To the right a hot-food bar section easy for food on the go and an espresso machine. They offered traditional breakfast items such as eggs, bacon, ham, toasted bread with a butter spread and an array of sandwiches. The first day, we came around lunch and wanted something filling prior to heading into San Juan. I also wanted a cafecito so my mom suggested this gem. We walked in and the place was completely empty, the lady greeted us and quickly took our orders. I ordered a ham, egg and cheese sandwich and asked for the yolk to be slightly runny with a café con leche. My mom a medianoche (Cuban on sweet bread made in house) / My aunt ordered a pastrami. Each came to the table a few minutes later, pipping hot even though a line had formed immediately after sitting down. I knew that was a good sign. All three were each so flavorful, hot, fresh and filling. My sandwich was so satisfying with it's cheesy-egg goodness that the girls wanted to come back the following day! Fast forward to the next day, we all ordered the same ham, egg and cheese sandwich but my aunt wanted it on pan sobao (sweet bread) and both versions were delicious! I also ordered a cappuccino this time and it did not disappoint. Going to miss this cheap, satisfying bakery, will definitely go back next time I'm in PR.

Located a few doors down from where the address will direct your GPS to, it's easiest to spot by the bright awning. Limited parking is outside, as is the story with most spots in PR. The menu is in Spanish, which is easily translated through Google translate. The cashier spoke no English, and seemed frustrated by our novice Spanish. I ordered a Cubano and my husband ordered a medianoche. The bread was thicker than we had seen on our weeklong trip thus far, and significantly oilier. We didn't prefer it to what we had elsewhere. The flavors were fine, but not great- ultimately not worth the awkward visit.

We had a long wait, but it was worth every minute of it. The appetizers (sandwiches of ham, turkey, chorizo) were phenomenal. The meat (churrascos and rib eyes) were all prime cuts and cooked to perfection; juicy and flavorful. We were a party of 8 and we were all more than pleased and happy with the food and service. Easy 5 stars . By the way, the place is truly a bakery, but surpasses many named and even recognized or so called restaurants.

***THE BEST CUBAN SANDWICH!***…read more A typical Puerto Rican small town "cafetería", very casual, but cute and warm, with lots of wood decoration. They have a lot of wines, cheeses and specialty hams, very much like Spanish "cavas". They have bakery sweets and sandwiches, breakfasts and snacks like croquettes and such. But they make, hands down, the BEST Cuban sandwich I've ever had. Ask for "pan sobao" -- a slightly sweeter and softer kind of bread. Great coffee too! It's a little too far from San Juan, unless you're headed towards Arecibo to do some tourism, in which case, this is an excellent locals stop on your way. :-) Disclaimer: Please remember Puerto Rico is not big on Yelp yet, since it's small enough for any local to find restaurants, therefore business owners don't advertise a lot and locals have no real need for it. So you see just 1 rating and review here now, but don't be fooled. Compare with my Florida and California reviews if you feel unsure. :-) -----------------------------------En Puertorro, ahora---------------------------------- Yo estudié entre Vega Baja y Manatí, y paraba mucho aquí a comerme el sandwich Cubano, que lo hacen delicioso. Es una pena que esta cafetería-deli casi no tenga reseñas, porque en Puerto Rico todavía no le cogen el piso a lo de Yelp. Pero ciertamente no tiene una sola reseña porque no sea excelente. Me encanta también lo de los acentos en madera, tipo español, y las variedades de vino, quesos y jamón Serrano. :-)
