Calle Ocho Cuban Cafecito

Little Havana-Style Lechón Press & Cafecito Counter — Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730

Only open 10am to 3pm Monday through Saturday, this hidden Rancho Cucamonga gem serves the closest thing to Miami's Little Havana in the Inland Empire.

Blink and you'll miss the storefront on Archibald, but inside the espresso machine hisses non-stop whipping demerara sugar into thick Cuban espumita.
