Las Chilenas — Coffee, Empanadas, and Community

Homemade food, every day

At Las Chilenas we take the time to prepare everything with care—the kind that makes a morning coffee feel unhurried and an empanada worth savoring. From the beans we brew to the dough we fold, our goal is simple: bring you comfort, flavor, and a place that feels like home.

Coffee & Drinks

Espresso, lattes, matcha, pour over, iced coffee, cold brew, and seasonal drinks. We brew with 100% Guatemalan beans, including a house blend our regulars come back for.

Our Signature

Empanadas homemade with love

Chilean family recipes, baked fresh every day. Enjoy them for lunch, with your group, or to take home.

The menu also includes lunch plates, house-made pebre, pastries, and other flavors from home. Beef, chicken, cheese, and vegetable fillings are available. New to empanadas? A crisp pastry with a savory center is a good place to start.

About Us

Two sisters. One café. A little piece of Chile in Nebraska.

Débora and Zarina opened Las Chilenas to share the flavors they grew up with: homemade empanadas, Guatemalan specialty coffee, and the kind of hospitality that turns strangers into regulars.

Why Las Chilenas

More than coffee and empanadas

Two Chilean sisters run Las Chilenas in La Vista. We serve specialty coffee, empanadas and baked goods made from scratch every day, along with lunch plates, house-made pebre, and seasonal drinks. Nebraska artists rotate through our walls. A café should feed community as much as appetite.

We cater breakfast, lunch, and dinner for meetings and celebrations across the Omaha area. Our space is also available for private gatherings. Share your date, guest count, and plans on our catering form and we will follow up soon.
