    Enfrijoladas con pollo

    The food was amazing!! I ordered the enfrijoladas with chicken and it did not disappoint!! Highly recommend this place!!

    Cute little Cafe on Ave. 30! At first it seems as if it's many tiny cafes inside however they have the spaces separated and you can choose where to sit. It sounds confusing but ones you get in it's very nice and you can bring your dog here! Compared to other places next to Avenida 30 items on the menu are a about 10-15mxn more and portion sizes were a bit smaller. However it is a cafe and it's still cheaper than many options closer to 5th Ave. To drink I went with the Naranjada Roja, it's orange and grapefruit juice with grenadine. It's sweet, fresh, tarty and perfect on a hot day. It was also a nice change from the aguas frescas. The 16oz. Cup was about $38MXN. My food took a while to arrive which was surprising since it was an guacamole tapa. It's basically a slice of toasted white bread, with mashed avocado, chopped arugula, pepitas, and cranberries. While it was a delightful change to the food we'd been eating. This costed about $65MXN around $3-4usd. While I'd recommend it as a snack on your walk to some other food I wouldn't consider it a meal. Overall the cafe has charm, the service was amazing and the food did its trick. Great place for breakfast in Playa (we had it as dinner).

    We came to Bajo Cafe often during our stay in Playa Del Carmen. It has such a chill vibe with impeccable service. They will substitute any item for you and cater to what you want to eat. They move the fans for you to ensure your comfortable during your time at the cafe.

    Bring your appetite, your computer, and have a great time. Now that it isn't as hot, this is the perfect atmosphere to get some work done while uoj enjoy a cafe or a meal. You get a great amount of food for a great value. Their staff is super warm and the Internet is reliable!

    This place is adorable!! It has a nice bohemian feel. The restaurant across the street was packed so we stumbled into this place and loved it. The service was perfect. The food was great and inexpensive. They serve fresh squeezed orange juice. The little chocolate filled pastries were literally slices of heaven. I can't wait to go back!!

    Bajo Cafe is a gem: Wonderful prices, nice owners, inviting atmosphere and (perhaps most importantly) delicious food! I've only been here for brunch, but you had better believe that I'll be back to try their dinner menu. I got one of their combos, which for $109MX got me a coffee, freshly squeezed orange juice, a pastry, a cup of fresh cut fruit and an order of poached eggs with bacon and hashbrowns drowning Hollandaise sauce. Talk about great value! The food was good (ask for the spicy red salsa!) & the price was most definitely right; this is a great place to spend a lazy morning. Bajo Cafe is tucked away in a small market (Mercado 30) in one of Playa's nicest neighborhoods, a few blocks from the standard tourist trail. Can't wait to check them out for dinner!

    Me and my husband found this cute little hidden gem while wandering around off the beaten path in Playa Del Carmen. It was hot outside and we didn't even want coffee but the aroma stopped us in our tracks! Good call because the coffee was amazing! This place also serves food but we weren't hungry at the time and already had lunch plans.

    Iced vanilla latte and iced almond latte.

    The venue is also a full on mercado with other food offerings and a cute local, artisan store in the back.

Wait staff was absolutely clueless at basic server etiquette and the 1-2-3s of waiting tables. The stereo was blasting some really annoying music so loud that I had a headache a few minutes in. The burgers are obviously frozen patties from Sam's Club that are probably cooked on a George Forman grill. The fries are decent but I don't understand why they can't master the burger part first. The entire restaurant staff seemed to think this was a party, as they socialized on the sidewalk while I was eating my "meal". Terrible quality, terrible service, terrible experience, and not a restaurant per se, but a social club for awkward foreigners who don't want to own a restaurant! On the "watch out for food poisoning" list without a doubt!!!
