Helena's Coffee is a charming neighborhood coffee shop that has become a local favorite. The atmosphere is lovely, featuring a clean interior and cozy indoor seating along with outdoor seating options in both sun and shade. Customers appreciate the friendly, warm service from the staff, which contributes to the inviting vibe.
The highlight of the menu is the empanadas, which many reviewers call the "best" they've ever had. These empanadas are hand-made with love, boasting a delicious dough and wonderful flavors like beef, chicken, ham and cheese, and spinach and cheese. They are generously filled, not just "air." Some customers recommend heating the empanadas briefly in an air fryer for maximum enjoyment.
In addition to the praised empanadas, the coffee at Helena's has also received high ratings. One customer enjoyed the "smooth as silk" dark caramel mocha latte, calling it "excellent coffee," while another loved the Nutella cappuccino. However, one reviewer noted that their 12 oz americano was a bit bitter and watery, though they were willing to give the coffee another chance.
The menu also includes items like the Netherlands croissant, which features egg, sausage, and cheese. Although one customer felt the $12 salmon avocado toast was pricey for one piece, they still found it delicious. Helena's Coffee is recognized for its pastries, friendly service, and a pet-friendly environment. Customers see it as a delightful spot with wonderful food, great coffee, and a welcoming atmosphere—a hidden gem worth visiting.
