Fantastic local spot to get hot chocolate. We went here specifically to try the spicy Mayan hot chocolate. We got an Abuela hot chocolate and the Mayan hot chocolate both are rich and creamy. Both are fantastic, and the subtle spice on the Mayan version ads a flavor kick that will make you wish you had this version before. When we were there they had Christmas gift bags with the Mayan hot chocolate mix. The owner were there and were very friendly and answered our questions drink questions, looks like a fantastic menu, and they have beer on tap too. read more

Literally stopped mid eating to write this review - that's how good it was. The atmosphere is a bit more like a restaurant than expected. We ordered the flamingo chai and Austin tacos and they were PERFECT. Everything was warm, plated beautifully and the service felt like a 5 start restaurant. Looking forward to trying everything on their menu. I wish it wasn't quite so loud and had a bit more comfortable seating, but I understand most are coming here for the food like a restaurant vs a coffee show quieter vibe. read more

Le Fernández Café - Austin Tacos Flamingo Chai Orange Juice - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbus, Indiana

We loved our breakfast here! We found this cafe thanks to yelp after finding our plan A to be closed on Sundays. We were impressed right away with the beautiful pastries and the welcoming and kind service. I had the breakfast tacos and loved them. The tortilla seemed scratch made and was the perfect consistency. The bacon was chopped so I could enjoy some in every bite. My husband loved the blueberry danish. I also enjoyed that there were a few games available. My toddler and another in the cafe kept busy playing with Jenga blocks. I didn't see a changing table, but overall it was family friendly and a comfortable experience. We will be back on our next Columbus visit! read more

We had brunch while visiting for a soccer game. The table ordered lots of breakfast favorites: pancakes, French toast, chilaquiles, and an omelet. Everyone was happy. On the way out I took a mango smoothie to go which was also fresh -and good. The food all came out at the same time and was the right temp. Employees were nice and the bathrooms clean. The only negative would be the noise level... maybe some different furniture or wall decor could dampen it a bit. read more

Wow! This place was amazing. First of all the Mayan mocha was perfectly spiced and the chocolate was wonderfully smooth. Latte art was a nice touch. The people were all incredibly friendly, and the rest of our breakfast was amazing read more

Le Fernández Café - Medium Cappuccino with an extras shot of espresso - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbus, Indiana

4 stars for Columbus area! Coffee is good and brunch food is tasty, good for coffee accompaniment. My favorite is the breakfast croissant. Desserts are not replaced so go early if you want fresh ones, otherwise will become cold and hard. Taste-wise they are pretty delectable. Servers are kind and do a good job making food, checking on you could be more frequent. Inside is very clean and sometimes subtle afro-jazz music playing in background. Place has red colored walls that give some warmth. Although with the blue lighting the walls can't give the full warmth they have, so the cozy vibe was not present in my opinion. read more

10/10! Loved the environment and the food! Well maintained establishment. Check out what you want to eat prior to your arrival as you order your food at the counter before seating!!! Enjoy! read more

Le Fernández Café - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbus, Indiana

This locally-owned cafe in Columbus serves upscale breakfast and lunch with lots of fresh ingredients. I stopped in the try one of their beautiful pastries. The clerks are super friendly and genuinely happy as they work. You order at the counter then have a seat. I selected a chocolate-filled croissant from the case and the clerk warmed it up and put it in a plate. The croissant was as light and flakey and the chocolate filling was warm and melted. It was delicious. Breakfasts that were brought for others, looked amazing with fresh avocado, strawberries and other fruits. I was wishing I had tried the avocado toast. The dining area is clean and simple. Coffee themed art is on the walls. Ice water is self serve. They are located in a little strip mall with limited parking. read more

We were traveling through Columbus and found this wonderful quaint coffee shop along the way. We stopped in for an early breakfast and coffee before continuing our travels.

Food was gone before I tools pics. lol read more

Le Fernández Café - Deluxous Hot Chocolate - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbus, Indiana

Best coffee! I get either hot or iced vanilla latte. Service is good. Friendly, family owned.

From the menu I sort of assumed that there would be table service, so I was a bit thrown off when I saw that you have to order at the counter. I got over it though and luckily I had perused the menu beforehand. I tend to get overwhelmed when I am staring at some wall menu and have to make a decision while people behind me are waiting for me to complete my transaction. But that's just me. Otherwise this place turned out to be really good. The menu as stated is extensive. So many choices. I decided on the Jamaican crepes. OMG, that homemade caramel sauce that comes with it is tha bomb... It is so freaking delicious I would bathe in it. Anyways, the entire dish somewhat reminds of bananas Foster. Very good. My iced latte was also delicious. Not sure what my friend had ordered, but she loved every bite of it. She also complimented the coffee, so much so that we had to stop by later in the day to get her another coffee here. Next time I am in town, I will make sure to stop by here for sure. read more

Adorable cafe serving fusion food with a Latin flare! We loved the light and fun atmosphere with music and plenty of natural light. This is an order at the counter with table service cafe where they bring your food to you and bus tables but there is a water station on the counter to refill yourself. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was busy but we were able to find a table and the turnover was pretty fast. We will definitely visit again! So glad you're in Columbus! read more

Le Fernández Café - White chocolate mocha & Black Forest mocha - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbus, Indiana

This is such a great cafe! My friends and I loved our food. I ordered a latte and it was huge and delicious. Great place, highly recommend!

Came in and had high hopes for this place. Reading other reviews got me hyped. However I was a little underwhelmed. I had gotten the lox bagel, and it was bland. There was little to no cream cheese, overwhelmed with onions and tomatoes, no capers. Service was slow, but they were polite. They also completely forgot one of our members orders so it was a little annoying. I am new to the area but just use discretion coming here. read more

The food was excellent and I consider myself a harsh critic when it comes to food it was cooked with perfection and extraordinary presentation. ! I had many dishes there that kept making me come back. The dishes are so colorful and full of dense flavors that have amazingly delicious tastes. At the cafe, there so so much variety of food and scrumptious desserts so choose from. The service was outstanding. Our waiter was so attentive and accommodating. Everyone working there is so friendly and helpful. The ambiance was perfect. ... if it's just a cup of joe or a nice brunch with the family or fiends. They even have a corner to lounge on a couch and play some board games or read a nice book. Overall, this was an incredible dining experience. ... I had an extraordinary experience at this restaurant! I definitely love the atmosphere and hospitality at the cafe and it's a gem in Columbus Indiana, everyone should stop by and enjoy an amazing time. read more

I keep trying to reconcile the uneven wait times for food/drink at this restaurant. A half empty restaurant on Fall Break with 3 employees behind the counter plus how ever many in the kitchen: how did it take 20 minutes for one hot chocolate and an order of plain toast? I stood at the counter and watched the male make cup and cup of coffee and saw those being delivered to customers who had ordered after me, some of them getting plates of food also ordered after my hot chocolate and toast. After asking about my order, he continued to make coffees before making the hot chocolate. No possible way that orders were being fulfilled in the sequence of placement. And to is isn't a one off for Le Fernandez.... Coffee is probably the best in Columbus, food is good, fresh, innovative. Front end management seriously lacks. What may be most troublesome is that I think the male making the coffee was management..... Consumer warning: if you don't want to wait for 20-30 minutes for counter service, please go elsewhere. read more

I tried the abuelita hot chocolate, huevos rancheros, breakfast croissant sándwich, asian chicken salad and jalisco panini. The food is just ok. It's really pricey though. read more

Le Fernández Café - Apple cake. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbus, Indiana

This is a great little cafe. From specialty coffees to bagels to burgers. Expansive menu offering a wide variety of food and drinks, especially coffee. A little pricey but worth it for the atmosphere. Great service. Their only issue is capacity and parking. But they may have been by design. If they had a lot of parking they couldn't provide good. Weekends are packed. Visit on Tuesday through Thursday around 10 am. You won't be disappointed read more

It's pricey but the decor and seating were very pleasant. I had a sesame chicken salad, and the dressing was excellent. It was a romaine lettuce salad with almonds. Would of course have preferred more chicken on it. For "dessert" I had a decaf latte (just the basics) and it was good quality coffee. read more

Service is slow, prices are unreasonable and the parking situation is a total mess. People park wherever they want in the parking lot, including in the exits and entrances. They also park in no parking spaces on the streets, making it even harder to get into and out of the parking lot. It is an accident waiting to happen. read more

We stumbled upon this cafe on a Sunday morning, and it was meant to be. Everything that was brought out was bursting with flavor and creativity, and they definitely want you to go home full. Thank you again for everything! read more

I stopped in for a simple vanilla latte to go, and it may have been the worst vanilla latte I ever drank. I also paid over $6 for a 12 oz latte. Do yourself a favor and hop on over to another local coffee shop if you're wanting a good cup of joe. I am only giving two stars because it may have been a one off scenario and they have a cute inside. I also did not get to try their food, but I would skip the coffee. read more

Love the atmosphere, customer service is excellent and great food options. I'd say the quality of food is what I'm rating a 4 out of 5. It's lacking in flavor.

Everything I have ordered there is excellent. The menu is the same all day long so if you do not want something sweet at breakfast, there are wonderful savory options. My neighbor took pictures of her brunch there which prompted me to try it. It would be a mistake not to order the avocado toast--not a cliche. A jewel on 25th street which would be easy to overlook. read more
