Did you know there are two meanings behind the name Box of Cubans?
If you’ve ever driven past one of our locations, you might’ve thought we were a cigar shop. And honestly… we get it. 😂
But the story behind the name is a little more personal.
“Box of Cubans” was inspired by Cuban cigar boxes, something that has always been a part of the Cuban culture we grew up around and love. With our Cuban roots, our love for Cuban ci**rs, and an even bigger love for Cuban food, the name just felt right.
What started as a small idea inside a BP gas station has grown into three locations, and that means more to us than we can put into words.
Every sandwich we make, every customer who walks through our doors, and every person who has supported us along the way is a part of that story.
So now we want to know…
What did YOU think Box of Cubans was when you first heard the name? 👀
A. A cigar shop
B. A Cuban restaurant
C. A cigar shop that secretly sells sandwiches
