Cool little spot to grab your morning cafe, pastries, and breakfast food. But they also have fruit smoothie-type drinks, pork sandwiches, and such! I had a bite of the pork sandwhich and while not like how my Cuban grandmother made it exactly, the pork itself defintely had that Cuban flavor to it. The espresso is just okay. The cafe con leche is also okay. I like how mi abuela did it better. She simply would pour a bit of sweetened condensed milk into the coffee. The cappuccino was decent, but served extremely hot. I had to wait longer than I wanted to enjoy it, and that wasn't before I burned my tounge. There is some outdoor seating as well as indoor. Inside, the far wall has lots of family photos of the (Cuban) owners and their family. The photos gave it a nice personal and cultural feel. The staff is all friendly and helpful. I've been there twice so far and had great service both times. One interesting thing is there is this mysterious large puddle on the sidewalk outside the door and therefore, no one can really use the outdoor table in that area. Hopefully they can remedy this puddle situation so the table can be used and also for nicer asthetics. I hope this place has years and years of success and only gets better with time. I look forward to coming back during my next stay in the Tampa area. read more

I recently went to Havana dreamers for the first time and my experience was wonderful! The lady with the gray hair was so pleasant, she was extremely helpful and recommended me great items, She was extremely kind.The coffee was delicious!! The only thing I will say is that the door in the front needs some fixing but other than that, I love Havana dreamers and will definitely be back!! read more

Good and yummy sandwishes! Good spot for Cuban! Outside seating available. Set at Longleaf Community.

This is a great little local restaurant in Longleaf. The food is good! It's always my Saturday morning stop when going to Starkey Park or bike riding. I highly recommend. read more

Found a nice little Cuban Cafe today based off of good reviews from the locals so I decided to give Havana Dreamers Cafe a try. I'm so glad we decided to as the moment we walked in the door you could smell the amazing aromas of Pulled Pork and Cuban Sandwiches being Made. The menu is mostly sandwiches with a few entree dishes and super reasonably priced. The places was packed with people and the staff was super friendly! Always a good indicator your at a great place to eat. I had the Pulled Pork with rice & beans to much delight. Very flavorful and will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. If you live in the New Port Richie area and haven't tried this, you definitely should. What a great place and sure to be a local hot spot for lunch! read more

Havana Dreamers Cafe - Cuban Near Me - Trinity, Florida

Wanted to try a new place since I'm in the area. The café is in a cute little neighborhood and the service is great. Café con leche was a bit sweeter than I expected. The Cuban sandwich is on point though! The roast pork was well done and soft, very flavorful. It is relatively cheap for a giant sandwich, definitely would return for lunch. read more

Havana Dreamers Cafe - Miami Cuban Sandwich and Café Con Leche - Cuban Near Me - Trinity, Florida

We were very excited to order from the place especially after a friend's recommendation however it was very disappointing the coffee was not cafe con leche I had better coffee at my hotel. The Cuban sandwich not good at all the pork was old and it tasted rancid. We will go to Tampa for Cuban. Will not be going to this establishment ever again. read more

This place is like a Cuban Starbucks except with really good sandwiches. I'm not Cuban so can't vouch for how authentic this place is, but the food and coffee was really good. We ordered the Tampa, Miami, and a large sweetened Cuban coffee just to try. The total came out to $16. It's quite a lot of food for the price. If you're a visitor I would recommend splitting a single sandwich so you have room to try other places. And if you don't like sandwiches, there are other things to eat. Highly recommend this spot for a quick bite and some coffee. read more

Havana Dreamers Cafe - Miami and Tampa. Tampa has salami. Super yummy! - Cuban Near Me - Trinity, Florida

Cute place kind of hidden away just outside the Starkey neighborhood. Food was decent, but somewhat forgettable. Hope to have a more memorable experience next time around read more

Service with a lot of snottiness! I came in and was excited to see guava pastries in the menu. Was immediately told by the young girl in a curt voice, "we're out of those!" I asked for 2 coffees and a can of coke for my son. She waved a hand at the cooler and told my son, "cokes are over there, go get one." WTF?? Then she said, "if you want food there's going to be a long wait because there are several people ahead of you." I hadn't even asked for food. I got a really bad vibe like I wasn't welcome here. I paid for the drinks and left. Not sure why they were so rude other than they just didn't like how I looked. I was going to come back with my husband for lunch but definitely won't now!!!!!!!! read more

Just moved from Cali to Odessa, Florida. and thought for a second after seeing this restaurant.. omg found a cuban place ( 3 miles or so from my home).. well not so fast.. the rice and beans super nasty, the picadillo beyond nasty.. the cuban sandwich is ok, not outstanding but ok.. on another note they have on their time that they close at 4pm.. well don't bother going pass 3pm, as they will not serve you.. the counter lady said oh no we close at 4pm and everything is picked up... never again! read more

Delicious Cuban. REAL roasted pork. Not deli pork. Nice little hometown feel. Quaint little restaurant. Went back twice due to Cuban craving. read more

I grew up eating Cuban sandwiches from a mom and pop shop near my home in Orlando. I didn't know back then just how lucky I was to have an authentic Cuban so close. Now that I live in Tampa, I do realize how rare it is....at least here. Havana Dreamers makes a proper Cuban sandwich. You won't be disappointed. read more

Not authentic Cuban food at all. I am Cuban nothing tasted like Cuban toast coffee etc....

Ordered a Tampa & Miami Cuban, 2 empanadas & picadillo.... O.M.G, it was fabulous! If you're looking for a fabulous cuban meal Havana Dreamers Cafe is a MUST! And the cute little community is an added bonus! read more

Nice local spot for empanadas, coffee and sandwiches. Dine in or take out , staff are friendly and food is good

It's Sunday afternoon, I'm hungry, and I have no idea what I might want to have for lunch. What is a fellow to do? I this case, I went to the trusty yelp app on my phone to scan what might be in the area. A few strokes later, up pops Havana Dreamers Café. Unless you are a resident of the Longleaf community, you would not likely have ever encountered this place. I'm sure glad that I did! Apparently they are only open from early breakfast (6:30 AM) through late lunch (4:00 PM). The menu is short and sweet. My Roast Pork Meal ($7.50) was indeed a meal! The pork was moist, tender, and plentiful. The black beans and yellow rice were quite tasty as well. The only thing that kept the plate from reaching perfection was perhaps a few pieces of fried plantains, and a wedge of lime. The missing items were forgivable, and I am looking forward to my next visit! read more

This place has excellen Cubans and coffee but their anti COVID measures are wanting. They don't adhere well to COVID precautions and practices. They don't enforce masks indoors or separation. Although they have a separate pickup place for Grub Hub, there in no place for you to pick up if you call ahead.You have to wait in the Same line as those ordering. I do this in the hope that they address these issues so that I can continue to enjoy their food which is likely five star La read more

Stopped here on Sunday 5/10 for something different, what a Mother's Day surprise!!! So delicious, hubby stepped way outa the box and ordered the sloppy Cuban, now he's a big man, but no match for this sandwich, for me the Tampa Cuban. The best authentic Cuban I've ever had! Also had to sample an empanada (beef) and some ham croquettes..... I was so full and satisfied, my son got the remainder of my sandwich, he was thrilled! If you're in the area stop here give them a try. Love supporting local businesses specially in these trying times!! read more

Havana Dreamers Cafe - What's left of my Tampa Cuban..... sooooooo yummy - Cuban Near Me - Trinity, Florida

Wow. Ok I'm super confused about all the rave reviews for this place. I TRULY AM!! I have been wanting to try this place for a few years now and I finally did!! I ordered through grub hub. I ordered plantains they were cancelled .. we'll ok I guess sometimes you don't have it? The chicken empanada inside was yummy but my empanada was undercooked and the dough was soggy. Also got the ham& cheese croquettes (you would think they would be made from potatoes ham and cheese. I really can't tel you what was inside this hard weird battered shell (the shell stayed in shape the inside was like a stick inside not attached.. so you know it's FROZEN! But inside was just brown like you couldn't tell what it was! Dry hard waste of my money. The Tampa Cuban! I was so excited for this salami ham pulled pork yum! Hahah haha WHAT A JOKE!! I picked up the sandwich and it dropped GREASE!! I have never ever seen or eaten a greasy Cuban. It was disgusting the pork was no flavor they gave me prices of fat and rubbery skin and peeling it off I had like no pork lol. 2 slices of ham and 1 slice of salami! 1!!!! On each half I was floored I didn't even taste the salami when I bit into the side that was less greasy but after just 2 bites I couldn't do it. The smoothie was pure mango and sugar. It's fake fruit juices not real. I was in the bathroom all night from this food!!! BEWAREEEEEEE. This place is greasy gross and it's sad! I have Crohn's disease and I thought they were fresh and good food. What a bunch of lies I was in the bathroom from 6pm all night. Horrible stomach pains etc. read more

Fun place to visit in the neighborhood! Very small but the food is authentic and very good. Love sitting outside and watching the bicyclist pull up for a snack! read more

Delicious Cubans! On my first visit, I went a little crazy and ordered a little of everything. Then I went back that weekend and tried a few more things. So far I've tried the Tampa and Miami Cubans, beef and chicken empanadas, guava and guava and cheese pastries, ham and chicken croquettes, plantains, and potato balls. I didn't eat it all myself! I tried at least a bite of everything though, and I'd order it all again! read more

It's everything I want in a Cuban restaurant. Cuban sandwich, sweet plantains, cafe con leche, empanada and cuban coffee all were great.

We headed here for a weekend breakfast. It's off SR 54 in a mixed used building (apartments on top). We found parking in a lot across the street. Luckily for us, they weren't too busy and we were able to order right away and grabbed a table outside to wait for our food. They had a great menu, lots of coffee options. We both ordered their pressed Cuban breakfast sandwiches and were pleased. I'd say my only 'complaint' was what appeared to be American cheese. I would have preferred a Monterey, Provolone or Cheddar but I get that American melts better. But that's it. We'd definitely come back next time we find ourselves hungry and in the area. read more

Grew up in Trinity, just visiting now Came here to try their delicious coffee that I remember from 4 years ago. But the coffee was SPOILED, by an poor-sport, sorry attitude lady behind the counter. Felt like I was at a Burger King in the Bronx, jeez lady next time understand that people don't want to be barked at. read more

So much missed potential at this spot. This little coffee shop should have a line around the block every morning. All you need to do is get good coffee... Not Joffreys. read more

Get the Tampa Cuban, you won't find a better one! Everything there is good! Authentic Cuban... delicious!

Chicken empanadas were delish!!! Guava pastry was good and better than the guava and cheese if you have to pick one. Will def be going back especially now that Railroad is gone! read more

Staff was inviting and made sure I was taken care of. Good atmosphere inside and out with a personal feel to the establishment. Real, well cooked bacon and eggs cooked perfectly on the breakfast sandwich. Will be trying a couple of other menu items on another visit!Thank you Havana Dreamers! read more

This is probably the worst Cuban food ever. If it was possible to rate it a half star, I would. They need to hire better employees too. I would love for the owner of this restaurant to go to Miami and get some ideas of what Cuban food should taste like. Café con leche is so disappointing. read more
