Description

Specialties

Dos Gringos specializes in being a community place. Our mission is to serve affordable, tasty and non processed food. We offer veg and non vegetarian meals and treats. We host neighborhood Intercambios (language exchange nights) every Saturday from 6−9pm. We have our menu in both Spanish and English so our clientele is mixed. We also are commited to our local schools for our charitable contributions.

History

Established in 1999.

We’re 10!

We started Dos Gringos years ago for the simple reason that we wanted a bagel with cream cheese and tomato and thought that enough others in the neightborhood might want the same.

The Café was going to be called «Cup of Joe» or a couple of other things, but thought that we would rather use a Spanish name to get a mix of clientele. Our Spanish vocabulary was limited and a local Latino Association suggest we call ourselves the Gringos. And so it is.

Trying to nuture our neighborhood mix, we keep the Spanish menu as our first menu you see when you come in. The English menu is around the corner.

«What is there not to like. While Dos Gringos is like Mt. Pleasant’s kitchen. The Raven is Mt. Pleasant’s den or livingroom.»
