Pampas Cafe

“The food, espresso, service and decor was top notch.”

This was my wife’s and my first time at Pampas. We saw the great reviews and decided to give it a try. When we walked in, we noticed a sign saying “Best Café Spot of 2025,” which felt like a good sign. We ordered a beef, chicken, spinach, chorizo, and apple empanada. They were out of spinach and told us it would be about a 12-minute wait, which we were fine with. However, it ended up taking closer to 30 minutes before we got our food. The food was just okay—the empanadas were small for the price and not very filling if you’re hungry, more of a light snack. The space itself is nice and feels

This spot is a must go for empanadas and or coffee. But you must have the empanadas. And vegan options that are fabulous and full of flavor. Among the 3 of us we had the Chorizo, Beef, Mushroom, Kale, Fuguzzu and Spinich all of them had their own unique flavor profile, ample filling and perfect pastry texture. Openly LGBT welcome. Nice clean bathroom. Upscale design and decor. If I lived near here it would be a regular spot for me for coffee + empanada and co-working or solo computer working.

Cute little place next to Trader Joe’s that serves empanadas and coffee. I’ve only been there during the daytime. Lovely seating area with a piano and couch to sit in. Empanadas are yummy and I have yet to try their drinks. Staff is always friendly when I eat there.

Cute, small cafe right next to Trader Joe’s. I like their beef empanadas, as well as the apple ones. I have had the tereré (yerba mate with lemonade) as well as their mate latte. Good place to study, although seating might be a bit tricky.
