“ Outstanding breakfasts, coffees and toasts. Both the “Bowl De Frutos Rojos” and “Bowl Pina y Chia” are amazeballs; extremely cold and extremely refreshing on a humid Yucatan afternoon. They also have some delicious antiox water drinks and vegetarian options on the menu. Great wait staff and food presentation every time we went, and a nice open air atmosphere right off Calle 19 (Yucalpeten-Chelem Road). Highly recommended for breakfast/brunch! ”
“ Excellent food and a nice clean causal atmosphere. Menu has a variety of items from waffles, eggs, crepes, fruit, sandwiches, etc. Also a nice variety of drinks. Great place to bring children as the menu has lots to offer them. Update: A year later and the food is still great ”
“ One of our favorite places in Chelem! We’ve been coming here for a few years and it never disappoints. The food is outstanding, great atmosphere, and friendly people. Their croissant sandwiches are fresh and delicious. I ordered the bacon egg & cheese and there was a TON of cheese! It also came with a side of guacamole. The chilaquiles, though - those were amazing. We actually ordered a second plate after we inhaled the first My husband ordered a strawberry lemonade and it was a frozen drink, which was incredibly refreshing on a 90 morning. The service can be slow and they tend to be busy, but hey, it’s Mexico! Kick back, relax, and enjoy the sights. Definitely make this a priority stop for food if you’re in the area! ”
“ Amazing atmosphere but if it's a holiday weekend you must call for a reservation. Staff was positive and upbeat, even when there was an error with my order they explained the issue and rectified it quickly. The food was very good and my smoothie was better than any I have had in the Yucatan. Definitely a place I will be going back too. ”
“ Amazing food here. The service is great and the server is very nice. The food is extremely cheap and tastes amazing. We came here multiple times during our stay in mexico. 1000/10 would recommend. ”
“ This little gem is a favourite of locals and for good reason. The coffee is very good, where each person receives a French press for two great cups of coffee to start the day. The breakfast menu is diverse with selections to appeal to all palates. The food is served fresh, hot and great flavours. The service was quick and efficient and obviously a clean and well run establishment. ”
“ We loved it! From the art to the food to the service, this place is full of masterpieces. Let your heart and stomach lead you here-you won’t regret it! ”
“ Great breakfast choices, big portions and friendly service. ”
