Kylie B.

my favorite latte i got while in san juan - i had the raspberry truffle! It was sweet while not overpowering the coffee flavor, and i tasted both the white chocolate and raspberry! Service was super friendly, i will say it was a bit crowded so slow to get drinks. Ambiance is modern and casual.

Barista Squared is a great place to get coffee in Condado. We got takeout and it was still good by the time we got back to the hotel. I ordered an iced caramel latte with oat milk and their chicken pesto sandwich. The latte was good. The chicken pesto sandwich was delicious. It's very generously sized and fresh, plus it comes with chips. I was starving and couldn't finish it all. My boyfriend enjoyed his latte and sandwich order as well. This café is definitely on my return list.

I really enjoyed my breakfast here. They have all day breakfast, sandwiches, salads, and wraps. There's a variety of drinks to choose from. I got a bacon, egg , and cheese on a croissant. I also had an iced vanilla latte. Everything was very good! My latte was perfect! I plan on returning during my stay.

Classic Breakfast
Morgan M.

This little coffee shop is a must try! I did the classic breakfast - the "toast" is a variety of bread options. I went with the croissant which they sliced, buttered, and toasted. There is a lot of seating with cute artwork outside, and the service was quick. Would absolutely return!

Avacado toast
Clare C.

Came here for some food before I left for the airport. Very cute cafe with easy to grab food and drinks. Service is pretty quick. I ordered the avocado toast. It was good and the price was very fair. A good snack before the airport.

On my recent trip to San Juan, I decided to venture out into the wild for a cup of coffee that wasn't Starbucks in the hotel lobby. A short 10-15 walk away, I found this hidden gem, Barista Squared. The vibe here is very cozy and chill. Small tables line the outside of the space and there are a couple outside tables as well. The staff was very friendly and I got my drink order pretty quickly. My only complaint, as others have mentioned, is the small quantity of tables often leads to a hard time finding a place to sit. I originally had to sit outside in the heat until an inside table opened up. My 10oz latte ran about $5.09 I think to give an idea of price, but that's to be expected with the cute little design they make on top!

This place is in a great location! We stopped in looking for a pick-me-up, and the barista who helped us gave some excellent coffee recommendations, such as the rasberry iced coffee my partner got. It's a cute, welcoming and open shop that allows people to work and eat. I ended up getting the Boricua breakfast sandwich--it was flavorful and filling.

Avocado toast w egg
Janet A.

I've been here several times and the food, service, and ambiance is AMAZING!!! They have the best avocado toast and strawberry macha I have ever had!

avo toast
Macey T.

The workers were so helpful + kind! The cafe is small but very cute and cozy. perfect for getting work done or catching up with a friend. the avocado toast was AMAZING! added egg and you just can't go wrong -- so yummy. The iced coffee was great, i added lavender and it was perfect. if you're in condado this is a MUST stop

Bonbon!
D Windham V.

Found this gem on Yelp. Quaint little coffee shop with delicious fresh cooked breakfast. Kind enough to make my wife a gluten free meal not listed on menu. There's not a lot of seating, but tables turnover quickly. Get a Bonbon and a Mallorca! They're amazing!

Be prepared to wait. It took them about 15 minutes to get untoasted bagels without any on them. The coffee is good though.

Looked into the top coffee spots of Puerto Rico, this stood out. It doesn't get better than…read morefarm-to-cup type of coffee. AMBIANCE Parking: Old San Juan rules--come early or be ready to walk. Seating: Multiple seating areas for individuals and small groups but it's also a cafe too so there is seating in the back too. Vibes: Clean, modern café with a mix of locals and tourists. You can tell people come here for the coffee, not just to pass through. It leans more intentional and coffee-focused rather than just aesthetic--which I appreciated. FOOD / DRINKS Coquito Frap (Recommend) When in Puerto Rico, Coquito. Creamy, coconut-forward, and lightly spiced--like a frozen coquito with a coffee twist. Sweet, smooth, and definitely more of a dessert drink than a regular latte. CUSTOMER SERVICE Friendly and efficient. Even with a crowd, things moved quickly. TL;DR OVERALL 4.5 Stars. Solid spot. Great drink options at a reasonable price. They know what they're doing. Whether you're a coffee person or just need a reset, this place delivers. Salute to the Munoz family for sharing their coffee to the world! TIPS * Try their house coffee if you want the full experience--that's what they're known for.

We loved it so much we actually went twice during our trip - and even made a final stop before heading to the airport to go home. On our first visit, Hector (the roaster) happened to be there, which made the experience feel even more special. The staff overall were all so kind and attentive. The coffee is absolutely excellent - velvety smooth, rich, and delicious. I could easily drink more than one cup. I had a latte, and my husband had a macchiato, and both were great. They have a cute little outdoor atrium seating area, but we preferred indoors where all the comfy pillow seating was. Just a note - they don't offer decaf - but for regular coffee drinkers, it's a must-visit. Such a gem in Old San Juan!

I've bought them at the grocery store for my mother over the years when I couldn't find Menier. I was hoping to see some unique desserts at Chocobar Cortés. Let's just say that the chocobar at this location was not what I was expecting. It's like an express version of their original one in Old San Juan. This is located in the lobby of the Condado Palm Hotel. There are 2 entrances. Don't make the same mistake we did by trying to access at street level. That door is locked. You'll need to enter through the hotel lobby. The service is very slow here. There was only one other person there. We ordered a box of 6 chocolates and payed for it. I'm guessing he was making a drink for the other guest because he asked us to wait a few minutes. It ended up being longer so he told his colleague (who just came back from a break) to make up the chocolate box for us. Unfortunately, it took even longer as this other guy was more interested in the 2 young girls who just walked in. The chocolate bonbons were good, but nothing unique. It's the same artisan chocolates that you see everywhere for the same high price. Perhaps this location is better for their specialty cocktails in the evening time. I was looking forward to trying the choco-latte at some point. I doubt there will be a next time.

Chocobar Cortés was recommended to us, so we stopped in for a quick breakfast to start the day! As…read morea chocolate lover, this was my paradise with beautiful bonbons and a chocolate theme to the menu. I had to order the traditional Puerto Rican hot chocolate, and I really enjoyed it! I had seen on the menu it was supposed to come with a cheddar cube, so I made sure to ask for it when it didn't come with it. It didn't melt down as much as I hoped, but the flavor was really good either way. All of our breakfast and coffee were really good, and we especially enjoyed the Mallorca bread. Besides having to ask for forgotten items (happened with the croissant and hot water for tea as well), and realizing when we got back to the hotel that there was a mix up with one bonbon flavor we had asked for, it was a nice filling breakfast.
