Avenida 7 Cafe

What a fantastic South St. gem. The man working the counter was so sweet and friendly. The food was phenomenal. We tried the chicken sandwich & the cuban sandwich.The chicken sandwich was sooo juicy & fresh! The sandwich bread is out of this world. Excellent espresso and coffee as well. We felt like we stepped into Havana with the door open and summer breeze flying in, along with the Cuban music playing in the background. All together a lovely lunch. Can't wait to come back

What an incredible gem. The food is delicious, authentic, and fresh. We ordered the croquettes, Cuban sandwich, and espresso - all special. The owners, Yosban and Barbara, are warm and lovely to talk to. We can't wait to come back and try more.

Such a warm and charming spot! The vibrant colors, great play list and hospitality were way on point. I ordered an egg and cheese sandwich, my friend the croissant and I drank a delicious cup of coffee. We lingered over our food and were greeted warmly when one of the owners came in. My sandwich was good, egg over easy and nice roll. I will definitely be back. I am eager to try the Cubano and the Cuban cheesesteak. Go! It's wonderful!

Food was great and staff was friendly. We got the Cuban sandwich, croquettes, and empanadas, and all were delicious. A welcome addition to the neighborhood. Will definitely be back!

Delicious and authentic Cuban food. I grew up in Miami, so I have a lot of exposure to this cuisine. Try the maduros and a guanabana shake!

For me, it's all about the owners of a café. It's top down. This location isn't hippy dippy. It's quiet and the service is incredible because the owners are there working tirelessly to make sure you're happy. My husband and I both got wonderful cappuccinos, but they have an expanded food service that harkens back to their Cuban roots.We love them and we love this location. We are about to list a home right around the corner and we will be there frequently and hope to see you there.

Stopped by when I noticed this place on Google maps despite living a block away and never having noticed it before, decided to pup in for a late breakfast. Glad I did. Love the light Cuban ambiance. The double espresso was fantastically strong, and the cubano sandwich tastes delicious. Will visit again.

Had lunch here yesterday. I've had a lot of authentic Cuban food (with relatives in Miami) and these were some of the best croquettes I've ever had! We also had the Tostones and Ham & Cheese sandwich. Do yourself a favor and check this family run place out!

I grew up in Miami, and both my parents are Cuban, so am well versed in Cuban culture and cuisine. This is an exceptional restaurant, and there is NO restaurant in Miami that has better croquettas. If you want to try the perfect Cuban croquetta, head over to Avenida 7. They prepare a bechamel sauce for the croquetas that is unrivaled. The smokiness of the pork in the Cuban sandwich affords it a unique and savory taste. The bread on this sandwich is perfectly made. The tostones are fantastic, and the ham and cheese sandwich has a homemade tomato sauce that is exceptional. This is a fantastic Cuban restaurant and I encourage everyone to visit often. Every dish, juice and/or coffee is exceptionally prepared.

Whether a local or a tourist, plan on lunch at Avenida 7 Cafe! Choose a cozy cafe table or the comfy couch while you wait for your hand crafted hot beverage, delcious smoothie, and authentic Cuban sandwich. The fried pork and sliced ham slightly melt the swiss cheese while the acid of the dill pickle slices and yellow mustard cut through that perfect pork fat. Even the bread hits just right as you're transported to Miami's Calle Ocho neighborhood or along the Malecon in Havana. The restaurant is just off Septa's Broad Street Line (subway) and on Septa's Bus Route 40. There is a fee parking lot across the street. The Center City neighborhood is busy and safe!
