El Paraiso is the epitome of a local mom-and-pop, a place heavily inspired by the fiery Latin beat of Tampa. Though a tad too small to house more than a handful of customers at a time, you can always stop by on your way through Tampa for a steaming cup of Café con Leche. If you’re peckish too, be sure to pair your coffee with one of their authentic Ybor-inspired Cuban sandwiches.

Tre Amici @ The Bunker is a (almost literal) hole-in-the-wall coffee shop situated en route to Ybor City, a vibrant neighborhood of Cuban and Spanish flair in the heart of Tampa.

It’s also a caffeinated-watering hole for the community, hosting events like Open Mic Nights once a month. It also hosts singers and songwriters who perform each Thursday night.
