La Segunda Seminole Heights

Came here Friday morning. No coffee, no sandwiches, just bread and some pastries that look like they are from a grocery store. Lots of noise in and from the huge industrial fans. Cashier is wearing air pods. Guava turnovers were dry and tasted not fresh. Don't understand why this place is recommended everywhere.

You are basically ordering in a manufacturing place lol and it's awesome. What's not awesome is the guava turnover I ordered must've succumbed to the Tampa humidity because there was no crispiness or crunch even though there was flake. This doesn't seem to be guava's natural color but maybe they use natural ingredients to color it. What was most disappointing is that I expected to get a Cuban sandwich there, as the existing Google photos and their online ordering suggest are available, but with no menu posted, no mention of sammies anywhere on-site, and no active sandwich making or press visible I figured I must've read wrong and didn't ask. Maybe for the best because the ropa vieja empanada I ordered was dry and less than half filled with anything other than air. I get it's an institution, that's why I came, but I was disappointed. I'll try a different La Segunda location next time, I'm not giving up on them!

We stumbled upon this place when getting coffee next door and we're so glad we did. The "flips" (?) were absolutely delicious. We had guava and cheese filled. The empanadas were also great, especially the beef. We'll have to try the bread next time because we see people continuously walking out with the fresh bread.

Everybody talks about their cuban bread, which is wonderful, and the real thing, absolutely the best, but if you haven't tried their Guava and Cream Cheese turnovers, you are missing out. Those things are what food fantasies are made of!

A friend of mineAndrea works here since she brought some for me to try and it was absolutely amazing my hats off to la sequnda

Food was great, only complaint is it can be very easy to mistake this as a sit down place like a cafe, this is actually more of a warehouse that they bake for their other locations in. Good to stop at and grab some food on the go still.

Not the atmosphere you would think for a bakery but the movement of the men making the Cuban bread to the sound of Latin music was amazing and the pastelitos with guava and cheese amazing. Pro Tip get a Cuban coffee at Spaddys coffee truck next door and chill in their outside space.
