Papi’s Cuban Cafe - Cary

We tried 2 sandwiches (a media noche and a croqueta sandwich), a beef empanada, and a colada (espresso) to drink. The sandwiches were great. They also seemed to throw in an extra coqueta for us to try too. My husband shared he wished the croqueta snack was a little more savory/crunchy but overall it was really all great!! I loved the flavor of the sandwiches, especially the cheese they used. It was surprisingly busy when we arrived and now I know why! It’s a great place and I really hope they will be around for a long while in the community!

The dinner bowls are to die for!!! I would go there everyday of the week if I could. I also recommend the Rico Sauve if you're looking for a tasty iced latte

Best Cuban food I've ever had!!!! Go visit, you will not be disappointed!!! Such a great family too...always so friendly and helpful! Can't wait to visit again soon!

Haven't had a chance to try their food yet. But their Cuban coffee is amazing. It's so delicious. They were also able to make it dairy free which is a huge bonus.

While the temporary hut/modular building setup doesn't look like much, the food is tasty! (And isn't that what you're mostly looking for? Pull up the menu on your phone ahead of time, or prepare to wait for one of the plastic printed menus by the window. The Miami sandwich was delicious, as were the side of maduros I got. Would definitely order them both again. I do want to try their iced coffee drinks if I'm in the area again. The other reviews are accurate: Be prepared to wait. It took 15 minutes for my friend and to get our sandwich and bowl. One person did come by and pick up an online order, so phone yours in if you'll be in a hurry. I think they may have only had two employees working. I don't know what other businesses are there, but there were probably 10 or more parking spots to choose from when I drove up.
