LATIN CAFE Cafe Ava
Andrea and Derek Cabrera named Cafe Ava — a cozy and vibrant coffee shop in Rolfe Square — after their daughter , Ava , in hopes of starting a legacy in her name . The cafe serves pastries and espresso bean-based lattes ( like a horchata latte topped with a sweet bread roll called a concha ) for your wakeup meal or afternoon refresher . In Latin cultures , many aspects of food and coffee styles overlap , so head to Cafe Ava and get a taste of the melting pot inside the shop . 48B Rolfe Sq ., Cranston , 595-1249 , instagram . com / cafeavari
