Museum Cafe

An hour before close, “no food” left “because it’s late in the day”, extremely rude staff, some items on the menu are apparently never actually available, and the remaining food (split a Cuban, side of collards and beans/rice) were so bad we threw most of it away. Really terrible experience and wish we’d just walked out- sorry for interrupting the waitress’s important conversation with our business. We definitely won’t do it again.

Nice local spot. I went for lunch on a weekday with my dog and we had the outdoor seating area to ourselves - nice! I had the small cuban with black beans & yellow rice. Both were tasty. My dog enjoyed the stuffed potato. I have a light appetite. I thought portions were pretty modest for the price. Pricing was higher than what currently appears on Yelp. Bill for items in the photo was $18 & change. Overall a decent stop for lunch.

We came in at 2:00 in the afternoon an hour before they close. The older woman behind the counter appeared surprised that she had customers. She asked what we wanted and I said two Cubans with no mustard or mayonnaise. She snottily replied we don't use mayonnaise and we are already prep it with mustard. We left. Never to return. She was rude.

This museum and cafe is the creation of it's genius owner, Jim Anderson. On our first visit he prepared our meals, told us his story and we checked out the museum of printing presses he's collected and operated until it was time to eat (he served our meal too). His Cuban sandwiches are spot on traditional the way they should be including the bread from a Tampa bakery. We enjoyed black beans and yellow rice as well, and a delicious pastry. Of course he's got sweet or unsweetened tea, and beer or wine. There's probably not WiFi here, he says he doesn't even own a mobile phone. If you're in the Homosassa area be sure to stop and enjoy Jim and his cafe/museum. And there's also a historic sugar cane site next door.
