Cafe Con Leche

Cool little cuban cafe in downtown Apalachicola. I'm not a coffee drinker, which is a shame cause cuban coffee is supposed to be excellent, but not my thing. Everything else that they sell I'm all about. It's fortunate I don't live closer cause I would never lose weight. ALL their pastries, baked goods and sandwiches look and taste so good. When I would come previously I would always get a coffee(for someone else) and a pastry to share. It's just whatever catches my eye that day, and I've never made a bad choice. I've had their New Yorker classic style everything bagel with smoked salmon with a smear(yeah I'm fancy) and toppings. Again you can't go wrong with anything here. This time I decided on a scone(still fancy) and the Uno breakfast sandwich. The only knock I could say was that it took a little longer than I would've liked to get the Uno. They make everything fresh and it was busy, and I was being impatient cause I wanted to be at the beach, but that's on me. And while good, the arepa itself was so flavorful that it took over the sandwich and I could barely taste the other ingredients. It just made me want a bag of arepas to take to the beach and snack on. Other than food and drinks, it's just a nice place in town to have a quiet little spot to relax, sit on the walkway, people watch, read etc... I really miss the bookstore that used to be in the same plaza, it was a match made for that area. There is another bookstore in town fyi, it's just a little further down the road. So come get your caffeine and some crawlers or anything else that they're making from scratch and have a relaxing day in town.

We love this shop! Our favorite items are the cortadita (we always get doubles,) the MOJO pork burrito bowls, and the guava pastries. This is a very down to earth, quiet and homey little place.

Best place for a simple yet delicious breakfast for many miles! Great service, friendly atmosphere, nicely decorated. Interesting artwork, some of which is for sale, including handmade notecards. Enjoy a great cup of coffee outside on the sunny porch. Highly recommended!

Been coming to this area for years now, first time coming in here. Would have been nice to find it sooner. Around here, the only food you can find is fish, fried, or flavorless. Some well-seasoned land-based food is a good find. Arepas are hard to find even in big cities, so finding them here was a surprise. Good choice for a meal. Coffee was decent as well.

Coffee is second to none! Pulled pork sandwich is seasoned perfectly, savory, not thirst-provoking. Excellent! Donut was hot and crispy on the outside, soft inside, not overly sugary, super delicious!
