At Arepas Cafe, the focus is on arepas—the star of the show. Each arepa is a satisfying meal in itself, loaded with options like the Jamon y Queso (ham and cheese) or the delectable Rompe Colchon, a seafood medley sautéed in garlic and peppers. The menu doesn’t stop there; you'll find irresistible choices like Carne Mechada, Venezuelan-style shredded beef, and Pabellon Criolo, the nation's beloved dish, uniting stewed pork, rice, and beans.

With options to cater to all preferences, including vegan delights like the Veggie Arepa, there's something for everyone. Quick service, a welcoming atmosphere, and the aroma of fried sweet plantains create an inviting backdrop for family gatherings or casual hangouts.
