Kim found this as a place to try for a nice breakfast. It was about a 15-20 minute drive from our place in the Carolina area, but we think it was worth it. Parking is difficult - but we lucked out and got the last spot in the front. We were greeted and seated quickly and although the place is small we got the worst view, but the service was still fantastic. It was super clean and super busy. The tables were never open very long and we lucked out to get one without waiting, even on a Monday morning! We definitely experienced our worst language barriers while here and relied heavily on pictures. I thought I could speak enough spanish to get breakfast and coffee, but I froze on stage... The only real disappointment we had was the pictures online show some really fancy coffee and we did not get that. What we did get was very good coffee and very delicious and super fresh breakfasts. We would recommend this as a place to go if you want to come away from the beach and the tourist traps there. We would definitely recommend and would come back. Plan to have parking issues, but don't give up. This is a neat place and a fun find! read more

They got some parking up front, but beware, they do fill up quickly. This place is lovely, the food and coffee is great. Tried their ice coffee, recommend the whipped cream. They don't have wifi which is a bummer because I wanted to work out of here but that's the only negative thing I could see. Great A/C - it was sooo hot outside and felt so nice inside. read more

The service was great ! The prices were cheap do to being outside the tourist area . Food was very good as well . Definitely will be back

Fantastic food and quick, friendly service! I was very impressed with their scrambled eggs as they were the most flavorful I've ever had. The French toast was delicious, fruit was also fresh.

The latte was amazing but the food was nothing to brag about . I didn't feel woowed or like i must come back .I was surprised they didn't have avacado to go with the eggs . the wait was not bad at all and the waiters were very patient and nice . If you don't eat pork This would not be a place on my list . Though they are accommodating they don't have many options for those that don't . Cute spot but if i came back it would only be for a latte read more

Easy to find the spot, hard to find parking. Following the signs, there is an opening between buildings (before restaurant) that shows parking behind the buildings. Park there. Custom menu with many options for breakfast and brunch. Breakfast served all day. They also have custom coffee and tea blends you won't find anywhere else. Prices are reasonable and you can pay cash or card. Paintings by local artists in display for sale. Easy to order in English. Staff takes the time to explain menu options. Chef came out to double check info on custom item before cooking. I ordered Cranberry and Walnut French Toast with cheesecake blend on top and Merry Christmas Coffee. My daughter ordered a Ham, Egg, Cheddar and Spinach Croissant Sandwich with a Chai Latte. Small bathroom, close to back exit. Light on the outside wall. read more

Our food looked amazing and the food came out pretty quickly but my food didn't really seem seasoned. The waffles were good but the eggs needed salt pepper and other seasonings. The portions are big but again the food was lackluster. read more

Excellent food, great service, and good price. I love the pumpkin pancakes. Coffee is beyond amazing. Highly recommended.

Special, special places can exist in the most un-special of locations. I went to Cafe Negro with my mom, who talked it up and is a big fan. Parking is very limited and if you go on a weekday morning it can be tricky to find a spot in the area, but if you persist, you will be rewarded. The place doesn't look like much on the outside - a small cafe on a somewhat out of the way commercial area - but on the inside it's a small oasis of caffeinated goodness and good food at very reasonable prices. Their coffee drinks are all really good so order whatever you want with confidence. I tried the waffles and they were delicious. If I recall, my mom had something with eggs and toast and she really liked it, too. At one point, the owner came by to apologize because they had apparently overcharged my mom for the toast and he reimbursed her, cash in hand. He then continued making rounds, remembering regulars' faces. I can't recommend Cafe Negro enough, and I hope they put up a website soon to put their name out there more often. It's really a special place that I'd love to see succeed. read more

This is a gym in Puerto Rico! We did not have to wait too long and they are not strict with the mask and vaccine stuff. The coffee was amazing they came out hot and tasty with lovely designs from the cream. I had the pumpkin crunch French toast with eggs. The serving size was huge I had to take it to go and I always finish my plates! We Plan on stopping again before we leave it was that good. read more

I am not a Karen but the service was so bad that I had to make my first yelp review lol. Came in on a Sunday morning, was informed wait time would be 30 minutes and provided them my number to notify me when my seat was ready while i wait in the car. After about 40 minutes (and never receiving a call from them) decided to go inside to check my place in line. Was told 3 people were ahead of me and it would be another 15 minute wait. There were people after me that signed up in line that were seated already. Decided to wait inside and after about 5 minutes was told my table was ready. Placed our order and waited an hour for French toast and a sandwich. Not once did the waitress come to ask if we needed anything while we waited for our food. We noticed people that were seated after us had received their food which prompted us to flag her down after about 45 minutes of waiting to ask how much longer for our food to come out. We received our food 10 minutes later. Food was okay but not worth the bad service. read more

The place is small but cozy; when we arrived before we got in they asked us for vaccination cards and to take our temperature which show their part worrying about their costumers in this global pandemic. The place was clean, chic contemporaneous. The waitress was super sweet and easy to talk and to give explanations on the menu. The food was amazing omg! The French toast were Devine you should try them if you go there it was pricey but a nice place with a great environment. read more

This place is small, cozy, very neatly designed and very clean. On top of that the service is great, the servers where very friendly and attentive, I think this place was the best place I went to in all Puerto Rico. If I'm ever back I'll definitely come back here. The food is very tasty and their natural juices are on point. read more

Café Negro - Muy buen café, la comida, servicio excelente y los empleados son muy amigables y atentos a los clientes. ¡Definitivamente vuelvo! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

That it was great. Typical Puerto Rican restaurant where you have to wait 30-40 minutes to get your food. The menu selection was creative. I had a typical egg with bacon on a roll because I thought it would be faster! Lol never. It like you have to eat first before you go anywhere in Puerto Rico. I'm in ponce in a restaurant where I literally had to wait over an hour to get my food. It's like they made the food at another restaurant, and then delivered it here. I even asked the waitress that and she looked at me weird, lol anyway. The food was great and the service was good. But if you want something fast don't eat here and Go to McDonald's. I'm serious. Especially if you have a full agenda! read more

What a wonderful little place! I got there just before the big crowd and I can see why they get those kinds of crowds. I had a nice cup of coffer and the tortilla. It was very easy to order and they were able to accommodate my dietary restrictions. The food was very good and the coffee was fantastic. I especially liked the atmosphere of the place. It is a very chill and relaxing place to go whether you are just stopping in for a coffee or eating a meal. Also, they support local artists by placing their artwork on the walls. Absolutely a wonderful place to visit! read more

Great little coffee house. I left like I came over my best Friend's house for coffee when I come here. The waiter was like the sister. Servers was like the mom and dad, always made sure you're good with what you are having and if you need anything else. The busboy was like the little brother..the place was cozy and felt but like home. Thanks, will always recommend to other if ask, "do you know of a nice cafe around here?" The food was no short from great! read more

Wow this place was amazing! Their coffee is souced locally, for a person who does not normally drink coffee it was absolutely fantastic!

Its a nice place, food is good, not great, but good, Coffee was spot on, my concern was pricing and quantity. We spend almost $50.00 for two coffees, 2 juices, and two ham, cheese, and egg sandwiches. It was good, but neither i nor my wife left any food on the plate, and I felt a bit hungry. If i spend 25 per person on breakfast, i will at least want to be full. Good place, but I wont go back read more
