When Tony Reyes' family left Cuba for Miami, they took with them a passion for cooking and culture that they passed on to Reyes. That passion led him to eventually move to and open a bakery in Round Rock.

"We wanted to come here because we wanted to raise our three sons in a safe environment," said Liliana Reyes, Reyes' wife and co-owner of Cuba Bakery & Cafe.

"We started on McNeil Road in August 2009 and then moved to Palm Valley Boulevard because it was a better site," Liliana Reyes said. "We added items to the menu such as breakfast and the very popular Frita Cubana."

She said the Reyes' goal is to offer a place that serves good food for a good price to the entire community.
