The Bakery Café and Restaurant (8250 NE 2nd Ave.) in the Village of El Portal, just north of the City of Miami, serves Caribbean style breakfast, lunch, and dinner and sells baked goods everyday from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. They also make a full line of tropical shakes and smoothies.

Owner Rony Desvarennes is the Honorary Consul for the Consulate General of the Republic of Gambia.
