Vicky Bakery Brings the Bold Flavors of Cuba to Fort Myers

There’s a delicious new reason to smile in Fort Myers—Vicky Bakery has officially opened its doors at 4429 Cleveland Avenue in the El Dorado Plaza, and the city is already buzzing with excitement. Known throughout South Florida for its rich Cuban heritage and mouthwatering pastries, this beloved family-owned business has now brought its iconic flavors to Southwest Florida for the very first time.

Founded in 1972 in Hialeah, Vicky Bakery has become a symbol of tradition, culture, and flavor. What started as a small Cuban bakery has grown into a thriving brand with more than 25 locations—and now, Fort Myers has joined the Vicky family. Behind the new location are franchise owners Andretti Tomeu and Milly Telle, who are passionate about continuing the family legacy and sharing their love for authentic Cuban cuisine with the local community.

Step Inside a Slice of Cuba

Walking into Vicky Bakery is like stepping into a vibrant corner of Havana. The scent of freshly baked pastelitos (Cuban pastries), croquetas, empanadas, and Cuban bread fills the air, instantly welcoming you. Whether you're grabbing a quick cafecito to-go or sitting down to savor a Cuban sandwich or a plate of lechón asado (roast pork), every item on the menu is made with love and heritage.

But Vicky’s isn’t just about sweets and sandwiches. The menu offers a full range of breakfast, lunch, and dinner options with generous portions, friendly prices (most plates between $10 and $14), and a flavor profile that will keep you coming back. From creamy flan to bold espresso, the offerings here reflect the heart and soul of Cuban comfort food.

A Community Favorite in the Making

Since its soft opening, Vicky Bakery has received a warm welcome from locals. The Fort Myers community has embraced the bakery’s mission: bringing people together through food that tells a story. The bakery offers dine-in and takeout, and whether you're a long-time Cuban food lover or curious to try something new, there’s something on the menu for everyone.

“We chose Southwest Florida because so many people over the past 10, 15 years have moved out this way,” shared franchise partner Tomeu. “We wanted to bring a taste of home to families here and give others a chance to fall in love with authentic Cuban flavors.”
