    Lafayette
    Nishad J.

    Was taking a walk around our hotel since my parents take forever to get ready in the morning when I found this place! Even though I was originally looking to try some puerto rican coffee, I wandered inside after I saw the "opciones vegetarianas" sign posted outside! They have three vegetarian options aside from the coffee and smoothies. I ended up getting the Lafayette which was a sandwich made with caramelized apples and cream cheese between two pieces of buttered toast and topped with vanilla ice cream. It was delicious! The staff here is also very nice and humoured me when I started off the conversation in Spanish even though they knew perfect English! Definitely coming back tomorrow to try something else!

    A favorite Sunday morning place to be. Fun place to linger, chat, have a great coffee and some delicious breakfast. Dog friendly!

    Bacon stuffed waffle and awesome coffee

    This is a real coffee shop, not like Starbucks but a cool neighborhood vibe kind of place. They make you feel welcome, even if you don't speak Spanish. Everything they make, is with fresh ingredients, and served with a genuine smile. A lot of times when I travel, I want to go where the locals go. Get away from the tourist places. Puerto Rico may not be your first thought for coffee, but they brew their coffee with skill, and pride themselves on their coffee. If you need to find a quiet place to unwind and enjoy some amazing coffee, this is the perfect place to do it.

    The perfect Macchiato

    This cafe is so sweet! Stumbled onto it because it is so close to my Airbnb. Had the perfect cup of coffee and a delicious bar of chocolate and am certainly coming back for breakfast tomorrow!! I felt very welcome. The cafe has a wonderful unique ambiance and a cute menu with diagrams of what is in each drink. Yum!

    I love the logo

    This is an unique place to go and relax. The place have good pastries(please try the Lavender cake), excelente service, free wifi, and of course coffee. For lunch they have the special of the day that are unique sandwiches creation, made with a fresh bread. And the soup are AMAZING. The coffee shop is located near Miramar, Santurce. Its great for exploring the area.

    Omelette

    After spending $40+ on mediocre hotel breakfasts, I was so glad to find a good place to enjoy an amazing cortadito and homestyle breakfast! My sister and I went for their brunch special which includes an entree, coffee AND juice/water for $11.66! The spinach omelette and the Nutella waffle were amazing - highly recommend it! My cortado was also delicious, so I wouldn't go and spend money on starbucks

    Cafe latte

    Place has a travel to Paris vibe and the music reminds me of the movie Amelie. Service was pretty quick and very friendly. The latte tasted a bit bitter, like it wasn't very freshly roasted. I also ordered the oatmeal which was a little sweet and did not come with the usual fruits and bananas on top like other cafes but that was okay. All in all, a good place to come in the morning if you're looking for a quiet place to study, however, at lunch time it does get a bit busy.

    This is what they advertised on Facebook versus what I got. Paid $13 for a St. Patrick's Day "Brunch" on paper plates and plastic silverware that looked nothing like they advertised. Me hubieran dado el mismo desayuno con la misma presentación en el cafetín del barrio por la mitad. False advertising full. Que bochorno.

    Good coffee at good prices. I would skip the sandwiches - they're good, especially for the price, but nothing special.

    Tried this place for the first time. We ordered some scrambled eggs and omelets. They were simply presented but very tasty. Iced coffee was very good as well as the passion fruit juice. Place is clean, good food and inexpensive. This establishment gets: 9/10 Taste, 8/10 presentation, $/$$$ price, 9/10 atmosphere, 10/10 service, 9/10 overall experience ‼‼‼

    My wife and I are staying a few blocks from here for a couple of weeks and we're checking out as much Puerto Rican coffee as we can.

    We were searching for a breakfast place and happened to walk by this restaurant when the breakfasts…read morewe saw in the window caught our attention. What an awesome find it turned out to be! This local family-owned restaurant was a hit with our entire group of four. I ordered the Super Bowl Scramble, and wow, was it delicious. It was loaded with ham, sausage, eggs, potatoes seasoned with rosemary (which I absolutely love), and plenty of melted cheese. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying. My friend ordered the Power Omelette, her husband had the Famous French Toast, and my husband chose the Ashford Special. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals and was impressed with both the quality and the generous portions. I also had a fresh-squeezed orange juice, and it was absolutely delicious--fresh, sweet, and the perfect complement to breakfast. The portions are large, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. We left full, happy, and glad we stopped in. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great breakfast!

    We had such a kind server at Pannes! His name was Claudio and he was attentive, helpful, and funny…read more My parents and I all picked the healthy start that came with a side of toast, and my husband got the Power Scramble bowl. The menu is a physical copy or there is QR code with an extended menu you can look through. I like that they are open early and on Ashford so easy access from hotels. Lots of seating and I think they have a to go section on the left when you enter. Great spot to add to your list if you're visiting San Juan.

We waved as we walked in to a waiter, pointed to a seemingly available picnic table, and he waved that we were good to go, so we sat right away, at 7:45p...after that more tables opened up. Drinks: 1. Pina colada - no bueno...like a coconut ice, not pina colada. 2. Passion fruit juice with fresh mint - delicious! 3.
