A local food truck serving up some of the area’s best Arepas now has a permanent home in Springboro.

Latin Arepas Street Cafe has officially opened its first standalone location in Springboro at 85 W Central Ave., across from the Warped Wing Barrel Room & Smokery. The restaurant specializes in Arepas, but offers other authentic Latin American cuisine like empanadas, Yuca frita, Pebellón Bowls, flan and more.

“We offer a carefully crafted menu that will suit any palette! Bring your friends and family to Latin Arepas Street Cafe to experience delicious food in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Our dishes are all freshly made using only the highest quality ingredients and uses recipes that have been in the family for generations,” states the Latin Arepas website.

Latin Arepas previously ran a kitchen inside Bar Granada in downtown Dayton, but returned to food truck-only service last year.

The restaurant’s hours are Tuesday through Friday from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m., and closed Sundays and Mondays.
