Pampy's Cuban Bakery

Fresh roasted · Bagged in Gainesville

A taste of Cuba
in every single cup.

Dark, sweet and unapologetically strong — the coffee Pampy’s brews behind the counter every morning, sealed into bags you can take home. Ground for a cafetera, or whole bean if you grind your own.

01

Cuban dark roast

Roasted dark and oily the way Cuban coffee has to be — caramel-sweet, never burnt.

02

Ground for a cafetera

Milled fine so a stovetop moka or an espresso basket pulls every bit of it.

03

Sealed the same day

One-way valve bag, foil lined, so the aroma you open is the aroma we sealed.

04

Poured at the counter

The same coffee in every cortadito and colada we serve on SW 2nd Ave.

About Pampy’s Coffee

The coffee behind the counter, now in a bag

Pampy’s has been a Cuban bakery on SW 2nd Ave since 2017 — pastelitos in the case, a cafetera going all day, and a line of people who came for the coffee as much as the guava. Enough of them asked to take it home that we started bagging it.

Same roast, same grind, same cup. A taste of Cuba in every cup — it is printed on the bag because it is the whole point.

  • Fresh roasted, not warehouse stock
  • Ground fine for cafetera & espresso
  • Whole bean in 1 lb and 2 lb
  • Bagged and sold in Gainesville

What’s in the bag

Fresh roasted

Roasted in small runs so the bag on the shelf is never the bag from last season.

Premium quality

One blend, done properly — the same coffee we are willing to serve you at the counter.

Fruity flavor

Sweet dark-fruit edge under the roast; it takes milk and sugar without disappearing.

Robust morning smell

Open the bag and the whole kitchen knows. That is the test we bag against.

How to Drink It

How a Cuban cup is built

Stovetop moka

The cafetera

Fill the basket level, never tamp it, and pull the pot off the heat the second it starts to gurgle. The first dark drops go in the sugar cup — beat them to a pale cream, then pour the rest back over it. That foam on top is the espumita, and it is the whole trick.

Espresso + milk

The cortadito

A short shot of the sweetened coffee, cut roughly half and half with steamed milk. Not a latte — the coffee still has to win. This is what most of Gainesville orders at our counter before 9am.

For the office

The colada

Four to six shots in one foam cup with a sleeve of thimbles. It is not a drink so much as a round — you carry it in and everybody takes one. One 12 oz bag makes a lot of them.

Breakfast, properly

The café con leche

A shot of the sweetened coffee drowned in hot steamed milk, with a piece of buttered Cuban bread to dunk in it. This is breakfast, and it is the reason the bakery opens at eight.

The Roast

Roasted dark, ground fine, sealed the same day

Cuban coffee is not a light roast and never pretends to be. It goes dark enough to bring the oils to the surface, then gets milled fine so a cafetera can push water through it under pressure. Bagged the same day it is ground, with a one-way valve so it breathes out and nothing gets back in.

Brewing Notes

From the counter

Which bag for which brewer

Ground is right for a stovetop cafetera, a drip machine or an espresso basket. If you own a burr grinder, take the whole bean.

Why Cuban coffee tastes sweet

The sugar goes in before the milk, whipped into the first dark drops of the pour. That espumita is what makes a cortadito taste the way it does.

Keeping a bag fresh

Fold the valve bag over and clip it; keep it in a cupboard, never the freezer. Ground coffee is at its best inside two weeks of opening.

Making a colada at home

Six shots in one pot, one cup, a sleeve of thimbles. It is how an office gets through a Tuesday in Gainesville.

Grinding it yourself

Take the whole bean and grind it fine — finer than drip, just short of powder. A blade grinder will do it if you pulse and shake.
