Happy Vegan Bakers Café

This is the only exclusively vegan Cuban ventanita in Hialeah (but not in Miami). And it’s making delicious bakery classics like croquetas made with chickpeas and incredibly flaky guava and “cheeze” pastelitos. Aside from the bakery items, their lunch menu (available from 11am-2pm) is what you should really come for. They make an excellent frita burger and an impressive selection of completas with vegan lechon, chik’n, and steak. Once you order from the ventanita, make your way next door, where you can sit and eat. And when you’re done, you can shop for vegan groceries from local vendors.
