The second floor is half alcohol. There is also a bar where you can get an alcoholic beverage while you shop! And, oh, yes, there is a deli with hot & cold meal offerings you can take onto their outside patio to eat overlooking the lagoon! Best kept secret in Cancun! They do custom birthday cakes on the second floor, too, so no need to pay exhorbitant hotel prices to celebrate a loved one's special day! Entire cakes here are $17-$20! Definitely bring your own shopping bag & be prepared to tip the bagger a few coins at checkout. You can pay by card or even US dollars, but change is in Mex pesos. Great place!

We stayed in a hotel near to this grocery store so we came here to get some fruit and to see what…read morethey offered! We opted to get some cut fruit because it was so cheap here. A tub of mango, pineapple, or watermelon was only two dollars each! They also had a lot of baked goods that looked yummy and a small food court. I also tried the flan, which was very delicious and not too sweet (which is how I like it). Overall, great grocery store! I would definitely recommend checking it out if you are in the area.

We got the classic cone with a beautiful stracciatella rose. The store was so beautiful (I took lots of pics and videos). It feels like such an elevated experience going into this store and being treated with top notch service as well. They offer so many flavors and of course taste tests to help you know what to pick. I will definitely come back if I'm in the area.

This is a really cute gelato shop in the shopping center in Cancun and definitely worth stopping at…read moreif you want something sweet while walking around. They have a lot of flavor options, so there is something for everyone. One of the coolest parts is how they shape the gelato into a flower inside the cone. It is a fun touch and makes it look way better than your standard scoop. The guy working when we visited was friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. One thing to know going in though, eat it quickly. Because the flower petals stick out over your hand quite a bit, they melt fast in the Cancun heat and can get messy pretty quickly. Overall, really good gelato, lots of flavors, friendly service, and a cute presentation that makes it worth the stop.

I was not in a rush so I did not mind but if you are looking for quick service this may not be your spot. Also keep in mind that COVID could have affected this. The tacos were good.

However, since there was strawberries, it made the crispy layers a bit wet and soggy. The custard cream filling was also very thick. All the cakes are $65 pesos are roughly $3.80 USD. I also ordered an iced latte. Amazing! I like my coffee strong and this place delivered. They only have crystal sugar which isn't ideal for iced drinks. It was priced the same as the cakes around $65 pesos. They also sell bread and croissants at very good prices. Ranging from $20 - $45 pesos. The place is also a restaurant with a full staff waiting to greet you. Just walk straight in and to the left. There will be people behind the dessert counter for the cafe portion of the store. It will also help if you spoke a bit of Spanish because all the staff speaks only Spanish.

There's plenty of seating off to the side and in front of the cafe for you to chill. Service was always pleasant. Greeted with a warm smile and delivered drinks quickly. This place has a wide variety of options from espressos, americanos, frappes, and smoothies. Throughout my 6 days here, I came here at least twice a day. There weren't any drinks I wish they had except maybe matcha-themed drinks, but that's also a big ask given I'm in Mexico lol. If you end up getting 4 or more drinks at a time, like I did, keep in mind that they also have cup trays for you to use! Side thought: after looking at the reviews, did someone actually give a 1 star review because they discovered this place is only meant for paying guests? And for not random people who wandered in from the outside? Cmon buddy! lol

I had the waffle eggs and bacon and I enjoyed how thin the bacon was cut because it actually cooked up nice and crisp. atmosphere is airy and modern and the baked goods all looked spectacular however I just had no room to sample any.

I also tried the red velvet cake, brownies, and cherry macaroons which were all tasty. I will say, I've never really liked macaroons but these were something I would choose to get again. None of us ordered it, but there was a really cool French press coffee that they made at the table (boiled water over stereo up into another glass dome that was connected to it, then turned off the heat and the coffee filtered down). Someone at the next table ordered it so we were able to watch. It was so neat. Definitely order that if you're a coffee person.
