Mundo Nuevo is still playing, and our Tapas Menu is online!
I know it looks like snow But really, the Hot Spiced Cider is on us! If you take the time and trouble to come in, it’s the least we can do! Jim just spent a couple hours clearing snow around the block, clearing fire hydrants, helping get six cars out. Why? It’s what neighbors do. Of course, he couldn’t have done it without our neighbor Warren, who kindly lent his snowblower. Around and around it goes, and don’t forget to pay it forward!
Our most popular beverage this winter after water and coffee. We could be selling them, but today we are passing them out for free. You don’t have to bring a coupon or buy anything, just come in and take a load off, swap snowstorm stories, and enjoy having neighbors! Hot Spiced Cider: cheers you, warms you, reminds you that winter is fun!
Mundo Nuevo plays such danceable Cuban jazz!

12/7: Sensemaya Trio
Sensemaya Trio fuses hot Latin dance rhythms with the cool sophistication of jazz improvisation. Their repertoire includes funkified interpretations of classic salsa to originals written in the revolutionary timba style of Cuba. Their own uniquely fresh Latin jazz compositions include a variety of styles from Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Brazil and the Dominican Republic. While Sensemaya can cater to the intimate jazz listener, their true purpose is to get audiences out of their seats and on to the dance floor.
Cafe open from 5–10pm with music in two live shows from 6–7:30 or 8–9:30 5$ Cover.
