You Are Exactly

Where You Need To Be

Where Heritage Meets Home

Our Story

Mariposa Coffee Bar was started by two women; one vietnamese and one cuban sharing their mom’s coffee recipes with each other and now with our community. Our food is paired with flavors we grew up in a space that feels like our own living room growing up. All together, with you.
This space can also feel a bit like a home for you too.

Where Magic Happens

We believe the best moments happen when people gather around food made with intention. That’s why we create spaces. Whether monthly dinners, community celebrations, or intimate gatherings. Where strangers become friends and memories are made over every course.

Every event at Mariposa is rooted in the same philosophy: bring people close. Celebrate what matters. Make it feel like home.

Every gathering tells a story. More than meals more than moments. Built to bring people together.

Community Nights

Art shows, live music, drag bingo nights, and moments of unexpected magic. These are nights when Mariposa becomes a gathering place for neighbors, friends, and strangers who leave as family.

TKS - TRAM'S KITCHEN SINK

Monthly themed dinners where heritage, creativity, and community collide. Multi-course experiences, stories in every bite, and the magic that happens when people come together around food made with love.

Your Celebration, Our Care

Birthdays, anniversaries, corporate gatherings, whatever you’re celebrating, we’ll create a space that feels like home. Customized menus, warm hospitality, and moments your guests won’t forget.
