Thriving local cafe and bodega with coffee, beer, wine, pastries, food, and a few TVs with sports on. Helpful friendly service. Local prices. We paid with cash, but I believe they would have taken card if we had manually entered our credit card number. Would definitely come back

Today, because I was passing through, I went into a place I hadn't been to in years. I don't even know if the name was the same as the last time I was there. Now Mike's Place, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience! The welcoming, relaxed atmosphere and the service is efficient and extremely friendly. Because I was actually passing through and short on time, I ordered a Beer and asked if they had anything to snack on. I was treated to a plate of Fava Rica. Although I didn't have the opportunity to try the dish of the day, I found out that every day there is a Specialty! My fault, I couldn't memorize them all, but I remember that, on Friday, it's 'Polvo à Micaelense'. Without a shadow of a doubt, they are 5*'s and I recommend them without any reservations! P.S: Well done to the owners because there are very few who do their best to maintain and offer, with quality, a Tradition...
