Mango madness
Saemyi L.

Got a Mango Madness and it was a jackpot! I love a good smoothie especially when I'm traveling. The employees were friendly and I think they know a little bit of English so I had no trouble ordering. The ambiance is super cute! Wish I had taken a photo of the interior. Oh and they keep the cafe pretty chill so it was so nice to walk in after a walk on the boardwalk!

A fake panini

The food is ok very basic but not bad my complaint is that I ordered a panini and got a sandwich and when I asked about it they said that paninis are not pressed this really irked me

Right on the Malecon overlooking the Pacific Ocean. A really good coffee shop serving great coffees and baked goods.

Large vanilla latte

If you're looking for some epic coffee options for the black coffee drinker and the frappe drinker, Looney Bean is where you need to go. The outdoor patio is breathtaking during the famous sunsets, but I personally recommend coming in at opening and watching the sky light up over the ocean and the malecon slowly wake up. The food isn't as photogenic as some of the other restaurants near the ocean, but don't let that fool you. Everything has tasted of high quality ingredients with beautifully surprising flavor combinations. I've been here 3 times now and I'm only in Mazatlan for a week. I Highly recommend this being a must go to for anyone, local or tourist a like

Vanilla Latte

I love the Olas Altas area in Mazatlan and frequent this place everytime I visit. The staff is super nice! And the coffee is delicious. I avoid coming here for brunch hours because it's really packed.... Last time I came I had an issue with my debit card and they have a phone you can use and make international calls. So helpful. I get smoothies or coffee here.

Yummy treats

We went to the Looney Bean after a long day of wandering around the city. It was refreshing in the cool air and the drinks were good. The coffee was average and the smoothie was good but it was nothing particularly special. I could see hitting them up again if wandering around this are but it is so touristy.

An amazing Looney Bean breakfast, enjoying The SoCal Omelet and small latte.

My favorite coffee shop in Mazatlan hands down. Great quality coffee and an all around wonderful experience and view! English and Spanish menus available.

Waited an extra long time for our food. The food was not what I expected. I would recommend Panama 5x over this place.

This place exceeded our expectations…read more We stopped by for breakfast. My latte was perfect, the chorizo hash was good, my husband said his eggs Benedict was the best he's had, and the carrot cake was great. Our server was very pleasant and fluent in English. The desserts and pastries on display all looked amazing! I wish we would have found this place earlier in the trip so we could try more of them! We had tried to find it a couple of days prior, but it wasn't where Google mapped us. We later found it five blocks or so down the road. Just look for the address.

We were just visiting and it totally surprised us. As tourists, we were walking around and we're…read moreabout to go inside the bakery across the street to get a drink and pastries until an older lady (American) walked by. She seemed very experienced with the area and recommended that we go into Allegro for coffee/cakes, etc. We took her words for it. Great idea. Allegro didn't look highly decorated or fancy from the outside, but when you walk into the dark cafe room, it's actually more spacious than it appears. Plenty of available tables & chairs! Staff was friendly and they understand & speak English. Very great customer service at the counter. Good coffee & latte. We tried the carrot cake and banana cream pie. Very portions and delicious. Yes, this dark interior place with nothing fancy outside turned out to be a very relaxing stop with very clean restrooms. They had pretty much everything you would find at a local cafe. It reminded me of a mini Starbucks type place, but this one is better and more quiet. Low foot traffic. Plenty to choose from! They do serve main dishes: breakfast/lunch, etc. We will likely come back again in the future. Absolutely tourism friendly with great staffs working at the front counter.
