I kid you not, best English muffin I have ever had . If you're wondering what to order you should grab their breakfast sandwich with the English muffin. 10/10! Add a little salsa macha and you got yourself gourmet meal. Everyone here was super helpful and nice. The cashier in the bakery recommended some sweets that I ended up loving. And the servers in the restaurant were also kind. This is the spot to get a wonderful breakfast! You can't go wrong with what you order.

Boulenc is a breakfast and cafe spot in the city center of Oaxaca. It's popular among tourists but…read morealso among locals as well. We went a little before open and there was already a small line forming. We ordered the ham and cheese croissant ($145 MXN) and the shakshuka ($135). The croissant was soft and I liked the cheesiness and creaminess. The shakshuka had a bit of spice and I liked dipping the bread into the sauce. The eggs were a little hard though and not runny at all. Both of these dishes were delicious and I still think about the shakshuka even today. For drinks we had the flat white ($58) and iced latte ($63) which were also good. We usually don't go to the same place more than once during our travels but this place was just so good we had to. This was my favorite brunch spot and I can see why it's such a popular spot.

My friend got something with crickets, which he had no idea til halfway, it was super good but it was a bit of a mental battle for him to down it.

I love the design; all vintage wood, the bar is really nice and all the local products, even the coffee mugs, spoons and napkin holders, are awesome, I also really like the birdcage lamps. The coffee is really good and is from a local coffee plantation. My favourite drink here is the water mango smoothie, so delicious on a warm day. There are loads of different desserts and they also offer salads, sandwiches and baguettes. My favourite dessert or just a nice snack with my coffee or smoothie are the oats cookies, the Nutella muffins are also delicious.

This is not as well-known as other popular cafe spots in the area so it's not as busy and there is seating inside. We ordered the shakshuka ($125) and baguette jamon serrano y mozarella ($195). The shakshuka base was more of a soup than a sauce and its flavor was decent. We asked for the sandwich without olives but it still had some in there but it was fine. For drinks the flat white ($65) and americano ($45) were okay. It's more peaceful and not as busy if that's the vibe you're looking for. If you want another place to relax you can head through the door at the back of the cafe to the lobby of the hotel. If you're staying at the hotel this cafe is very convenient to get pastries or coffee.

Ama is past the heavy door within Muss cafe. What called me to AMA was moreso the plants lol, but the menu carried through. I ordered the huevos rancheros with a water based Oaxacan chocolate. I was so happy they had the water option (most of Oaxaca does) bc the more north you go they usually just do milk. The water chocolate was delicious. Still smooth even with a little butter taste due to how the chocolate was price (no dairy though). The huevos rancheros were light, but delicious. Did wish for some more black beans though. My friends breakfast dishes were just as delicious. One ordered the Parmesan mushroom toast and the other toast with compote with a side of egg and bacon. Highly recommend this place for breakfast, drinks and a cute view of part of the city.

The Toast Con Pina was a delicious way to finish breakfast, which was served with a side of fruit. I'm not going to describe the food here, because the pictures I was able to capture say it all. The color, the texture, the layers, the aroma...as they say, you eat with your eyes. You can sneak a peek at the ladies in the back making the bread from scratch in an open-space area that's hard to ignore. You are captivated by every inch of this place. The live music by a violinist, just "wow"!!! Oaxaca is represented well by this place!

Step off the sidewalk a few steps into a gated street to find this gorgeous courtyard restaurant…read more At 6pm, I had the place to myself. This hidden gem has a small but diverse menu of fresh and tasty dishes. It's mango season, so I jumped at the salad option. I could have had more jicama, but the salad is a nice change from the meat/tortilla/queso diet I've been on the last week and a half. Ceviche is a big deal in Oaxaca, and this is one of the best I've ever had. The coconut milk is an unexpected and refreshing twist that adds a depth of flavor to this delicious fish. I was also pleasantly surprised by the sauvignon blanc from Baja, California. This lovely Cafe offers breakfast, lunch and dinner Tuesday through Saturday and breakfast only on Sunday and Monday. Check the Google Maps listing for hours, that seems to match what's posted at the restaurant. And if you're wondering what a Chepiche is, it's a Mexican herb apparently similar to cilantro often used to season meats. That explains the very herb/vegetable forward menu. Reminds me a lot of California farm-to-fork cuisine. Great Playlist of extremely romantic soft rock/folk music in Spanish. I've been Shazamming almost every song! This is not my cheapest meal in Oaxaca by far, but sometimes self care looks like a date night for one. Thanks, Chepiche Cafe. You were just what I needed and more tonight.
