Welcome to Mecatos Bakery & Café

"I had a lot of time before I begin my shift and this was the closest place that was open! Absolutely love how they made my tea with steam milk and if you ever get the chance, you have gotta try those Leche filled pastries… I also got myself a stuffed Arepa… the breakfast one and they were incredible"

"Affordable Colombian food with empanadas, arepas, Columbian burger, pastries, and more. We came in for a late lunch/early dinner and the restaurant seemed to be fully staffed. We were greeted immediately from the cashier. You order at the counter and they bring out your food. When I asked about the difference of two similar cakes, she said explained it. She was friendly and polite. Our food came out quickly. The empanadas had a thick pastry and were crispy. The chicken pastry was such a delicious entree that just kind of oozed comfort food. The Hawaiian empanada could be good if the taste was consistent all the way through. My first couple of bites were more spiced and didn’t have the pineapple and sweet taste that the rest of the empanada had. The chorizo was a little dry. The chocolate cannoli was ok. It as a lighter chocolate flavor. The coconut cake with caramel was a good balanced flavor. The dulce de leche cake was light. My only ask for improvement is for sturdier plastic utensils. With the dense chorizo and coconut cake, the utensils bent and couldn’t effectively pick up or cut the bites of food. There is a menu with food without gluten on the counter but they do warn that they prepare food without gluten gluten and can’t guarantee that gluten doesn’t get into “gluten free food”."
