About Mecatos Bakery and Cafe

Welcome to Mecatos Lake Nona! Mecato means treat in Colombian, and Mecatos Lake Nona provides real authentic Colombian treats in a welcoming and friendly environment. Our passion for authentic Colombian food comes from our founder Edward Lurduy. In 2015, he researched the very best Colombian recipes before opening up the first store in 2016 in the Orlando, Florida area. Since then, we have opened four additional stores with one here in Lake Nona, and plans are underway to open an additional three stores. It is an exciting time for us as we get to introduce more people to authentic Colombian food and culture.

Another of our favorites is bunuelo. Bunuelo is our cheese dough that is deep fried giving it a crispy outside with a soft and silken inside. There is also our ringed cheese bread that is made with a few less ingredients which gives it a unique texture. Mecatos Lake Nona also serves other types of bread like roscon or croissant.
