Mixed review on Cumbre because it was great in some aspect and not so much in others.
Starting with the coffee in one sitting I had an expresso and an ice cappuccino, both were great. Had two Aljafores a d they were amazing, very authentic as I've had them in Argentina before.
Empanadas, had three the ham and cheese was amazing very good, tasty and balanced between the ham and cheese. Not too much cheese and just the right amount of ham.

Read moreOne of my favorite breakfast places in Cville, especially when I’m looking for something on the healthier side. Great avocado toast— comes with a super fresh side salad, too. But if you’re looking to splurge, their pastries and empanadas are all great, too. Highly recommend getting a selection of the empanadas take-away to reheat for to go breakfasts later!
Only star deduction is not on them- sometimes Dairy Market has a leaky roof and it can be a bit drippy/slippy inside. But the staff keeps the tables clean, is really nice, and keeps up their...
