Offering “sweet traditions with lots of flavor!” Mr. Baker is a beloved Cuban bakery with outposts in Miami, Davie, Miramar, and Tamarac—nine locations in all.
“Your favorite bakery in Miami,” says a description on the brand’s website. “If you’re looking for ‘bakery near me,’ you’ve come to the right place!”
And now South Florida is getting yet another right place. This week, Baron Property Group and MG Developer announced that they have signed their first retail lease for their mixed-use development Metro Parc, in Hialeah. That tenant is Mr. Baker!
“Metro Parc is redefining the residential experience in Hialeah, and welcoming our first retail partner represents an important step in bringing that vision to life,” Matthew Baron, Founder and President of Baron Property Group, said in a press release. “As a cherished Miami brand, Mr. Baker brings a sense of familiarity and community while enhancing the lifestyle we’re creating for residents and neighbors.
The press release describes a 1,760-square-foot space on Metro Parc’s ground floor, where “Mr. Baker will offer its signature fresh-baked treats, including pastelitos, croquetas, empanadas, cakes and specialty coffees to residents and visitors of Hialeah. Combining the warmth of a neighborhood bakery with the quality and presentation of a gourmet café, Mr. Baker will serve breakfast, lunch and sweet treats perfect for any time of day.”
What Now reached out to Oscar Martinez, owner of Mr. Baker, on Friday. Martinez was not immediately available to comment on the news.
“Mr. Baker has always celebrated Miami’s traditions while welcoming new generations. Opening at Metro Parc allows us to share our Cuban flavors and recipes with the Hialeah community,” Martinez said in the release. “We are proud to be the first retail partner here and look forward to becoming part of the daily lives of residents and neighbors.”
