A popular mobile Cuban bakery and sandwich shop is putting down roots in Decatur.

Buena Gente, owned by Manny Rodriguez and Stacie Antich, is slated to open a location next spring at 1365 Clairmont Road, in the space previously occupied by Nectar, Eater Atlanta first reported. It will join several other food and beverage destinations in a complex that also includes The Po'Boy Shoppe, Ms. Icey's Kitchen and Bar and Community Q.

The menu will include several of the food trailer’s most popular dishes, an expanded selection of sandwiches and Cuban-style coffee drinks and sodas.

The AJC has reached out to Buena Gente for more details.
