How Did La Cantina Get Started?
La Cantina grew out of Maria’s Family Restaurant. Originally, they added a bar space to the original restaurant so guests could enjoy alcoholic beverages alongside their meals. After remodeling and expanding, they created a space where guests could visit the bar side on its own, without needing to dine at Maria’s. That’s also when they introduced their specialty coffees, giving people the option to enjoy both a lively bar atmosphere and a cozy coffeehouse vibe.
What Makes La Cantina Unique?
La Cantina is set apart by its versatility. Its not just a bar – they serve specialty coffees, craft cocktails, and a small but flavorful lunch and dinner menu. They offer a spacious environment with a unique boho-inspired design and an ambient, welcoming feeling. Beyond food and drink, they host a variety of events like business gatherings and paint-and-sip nights. Their goal is to create a space that is welcoming where people can relax, connect, and have fun.
What is La Cantina’s Most Popular Drinks and Dishes?
Their house-made agua de horchata and aguas frescas are always a huge hit, as they are refreshing, delicious, and made 100% from scratch.
On the coffee side, their Cantina Canela Shaken Espresso has quickly become a customer favorite. It’s gluten-free, dairy-free, and naturally sweetened, so it’s both indulgent and approachable for customers.
From the food menu, popular picks include the Bandera Burrito, wings, and Isla Fuego Bowl. While the food menu may be small, every item is crafted with authentic flavor and care.
