We visited Potheads on Beach Road a few times during our stay in Tulum to grab breakfast before heading out for activities. If you're on a tight schedule, definitely give yourself extra time. Service can be slow, especially during busy hours, and it can take a while for food to come out. That said, it's a nice spot if you're not in a rush and want to relax. The food was delicious. I had the peanut butter bowl, and the açaí ingredients were fresh and high quality. I just wish I had tried more items. My husband really enjoyed his breakfast burrito and said it was very satisfying. The latte was just okay. They use syrup from a plastic bottle, which I personally didn't love, so I wouldn't recommend coming here specifically for coffee. Tried a tumeric shot instead and that was yummy! One of the best parts is the location. It was super convenient for us since it was about a block from where we were staying at Azulik and within walking distance of everything cute in the area. The upstairs seating is great for people watching, and the overall vibe is very tropical and relaxed. The servers were okay, not especially friendly, but I get that they probably deal with a lot of tourists every day. Overall, it's a good spot for tasty breakfast bowls and burritos in a great location. Just come with patience and skip the latte. read more

If you need a breakfast spot in Tulum, Potheads is it. We landed here more than once because the vibe is just RIGHT for the morning.. easy, sunny, unhurried. The smoothies and burritos hit, the mimosas do not hurt, and the coffee is exactly what you want before a day on the bikes. My favorite move is heading upstairs to the little bar that overlooks the street and people-watching while you sip. Friendly and laid-back, a great way to start the day. I particularly loved the juices. read more

We came here on a whim the first morning of our stay in Tulum. It was open early and had coffee It's a cute , family operated cafe with a jungle-like seating area in the far back and an upstairs. They do light a mosquito repellent fog which is helpful. We arrived around 745a and no one else was around. Only some stragglers from the prior night still getting after it. We ordered two lattes with almond milk and two breakfast burritos. The one I had was really good, beautiful presentation for breakfast. The ratio of potatoes:eggs:bacon was a little off and it seemed like a little more potatoes than other stuff in my partners. Overall, though it was super convenient and they do have some really good specials for fish tacos and drinks later on in the afternoon. We only had one meal here during our stay so can't speak too much else. They did seem to be reasonably busy throughout the day when we would drive by though. read more

Potheads is such a cute brunch place. They have a small seating area. The service was very fast and our server was very sweet and friendly. We tried their veggie burrito, iced latte, hot latte and some eggs with bread. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. This is a must visit place for a chill inexpensive casual brunch. read more

Made it here randomly for happy hour on a Tuesday afternoon. It seemed like the busiest place on the beach strip. Pros: - discounted fish tacos and 2x1 cocktails during happy hour. Fish tacos were delicious - plenty of open air seating - board games and Jenga available to play - prompt drinks upon ordering Notes: - bathroom is down the stairs in the back garden. Accessibility wise I noticed a few people struggling with that - just something to be mindful of - food came out after 40min. We had both finished our first round of cocktails already at that point - Not a fan of the veggie sandwich which was mostly cucumbers, spinach and a cream cheese, which in hindsight was definitely not worth the wait or the price read more

Great vibes, food and staff here. I really should say family though. I make sure to go anytime I'm in town and tell everyone I know to come here. They are so sweet and accommodating everytime no matter how big my party is. Great aesthetics for pictures and even better food. Thank you for treating me like family and welcoming me everytime read more

Delicious, but ridiculously expensive and nonchalant service - where you had to wave them down to get seated, wave them down to order, wave them down for the check. Atmosphere is and decor was cool though. I really enjoyed the wet burrito, it's not spicy! Even though it was wet, it wasn't soggy. Flavor came through well. The smoothie bowl was delicious - we tried the mermaid bowl. Parking is scarce if you're not already in the area. We paid overpriced parking (200 pesos -11 usd for the day) to eat and lay out on the beach. So for two burritos, and a smoothie bowl... $57 dollars including tip. How? Not sure. Tulum town was cheaper. read more

Forget the Hotel food, this place is basic, but the food is damn good without the frills and reasonably priced.

Delicious inexpensive brunch! I walked here from my hotel about a half a mile up the road. I found this cute spot that offered healthy options including smoothies, healthy shots, smoothie bowls and other breakfast food. I came here several times during my stay and they have free wireless as well. I got the mango smoothie bowl and the matcha bowl. Both were very good and filling. The portions they give you are big as well. They have breakfast all day too and the seating options are huge. Indoor and outdoor seating. read more

I came by Potheads with a group of friends during our spring break trip. I ordered the salmon bagel (yes even in Mexico but I was craving one lol). The bagel was strangely giving croissant but it was a bagel. It was super yummy though - the sandwich was packed with salmon I kept having to reconstruct the sandwich because it kept falling out. I also appreciated that they didn't put a brick of cream cheese in it like they do in New York. The service was alright. I think the waiters were eavesdropping on our conversation because we were discussing doing an ATV tour and then they came up to us and told us they knew a guy lmao. Overall yummy and reasonably priced. read more

Food: fantastic, fresh and the right combination of spicy and savory (I had the brunch arrachera burrito loaded with onions and bell peppers and wonderful rice and my husband had the chicken enchiladas with green sauce). I also thoroughly enjoyed my fresh smoothie with cacao and espresso. Ambiance: great people watching and a feeling of being in a treehouse in the jungle. Good music, too Service: the owner is great and very friendly. The servers are sweet and efficient. Extras: cheapest beer in Tulum, especially on this road of expensive places. Currently offer 2 beers for $50 pesos. It is also "always" taco Tuesday. read more

Honestly a great breakfast spot, we went here twice while in Tulum. The rancheros were better than the chilaquiles but still bomb food overall. Great coffee and health shots too. The public beach is right across the street and easy to find parking. read more

This review is very dated but I'd love to return when I'm back just in Tulum. We stumbled in here after searching for breakfast before we took a ride to PDC. the vibe is the best, it made me want to eat outside the whole day. The menu didn't sound like what I had in mind but both meals were delishhhhh. I had some kind of juice but don't remember. Our server was very kind and made sure we enjoyed our experience. read more

I Should've Ordered Two! I enjoyed their Tropical Storm juice (passion fruit, orange and pineapple) and their breakfast sandwich (fried egg, cheddar cheese, avocado and tomato on multi-grain toast) Such a good way to start your day in Tulum, breakfast at @potheadstulum on IG. Fresh food and cool spot with good vibes. When in Tulum go to Potheads! read more

Nice outdoor atmosphere about 1 block away from the beach. I purchased an egg white veggie omelette with potatoes and toast. It was more like fried egg whites with vegetables. It was very delicious, Also purchased their turmeric ginger pineapple shot twice. It was amazing. I had an espresso macchiato. It was average. Five star for having raw juice. 5 star for food. 3 star for coffee. read more

My husband and I went twice during our stay close by and it had good service. We ordered the chilaquiles, classic breakfast, oatmeal, and a quinoa bowl, and of course coffees. Their watermelon juice seemed fresh! All the breakfast was good but chilaquiles were our least favorite because it seemed like just sauce on chips with eggs, and not made authentically. The black coffee was great, the lattes were not bad. read more

Food and service have gone downhill exponentially since the last time I came. My waiter, a short Hispanic guy was very impatient, condescending & generally unpleasant. My tablet Spent $65 on breakfast tht all 3 people had to hv something In it corrected. I asked for my chicken to be made hot and they seemed to just put the plate itself on the stove & brought the chicken back to me cold Again with soggy chips. Disappointing all around. read more

f you're in the mood for a delicious brunch, Potheads is a great spot to check out. Located within walking distance of our VRBO/Villa, it's an easy place to get to and offers a range of options for food and drinks. The prices for both are decent, and the menu features both local and western cuisine, so there's something for everyone. On my visit, I decided to go all out and ordered a wet burrito, chilaquiles, coffee, and a green juice, along with several rounds of shots of tequila. Everything was delicious and hit the spot, and the staff were super friendly and attentive throughout our meal. They're also open early at 7 AM, which is great if you're an early riser. In addition to the food and drinks, Potheads also has a range of board games to play, and the wifi is reliable, which is always a plus. All in all, I had a great experience at this brunch spot and would definitely recommend it to others. read more

Our favorite spot for lunch and margaritas in Tulum! The shrimp tacos are absolutely delicious! The chef knows what he's doing and the service is fantastic. Shout out to Geronimo, who was the best and so patient with my son. read more

Two major issues: 1) Five of us ate, and only two of us were okay with their food. There huevos rancheros tasted like bad Italian. 2) No air, no fans, no nada. They claim the fans are not working but the lights appear to work just fine. Think they're just being cheap, which is pretty sad given the prices. If you must come here, I recommend their salad. read more

The worst experience ever! Servicers were very rude and uninterested and the food was disgusting! My husband ordered an alcohand drink and I ordered a juice because I'm pregnant, in which the waiter was informed. The waiter came out with 2 drinks that looked like water placed one in front of me and the other in front of my husband without informing us they were both 2 for 1 specials alcoholic beverages. So in thinking it was water, I took a drink and was very upset to find out it had alcohol in it. We said something to the waiter which he brushed off in a very nonchalant way, and walked away. The way the food was thrown together was tasteless and disgusting! When ask to speak to a manager the waiter rudely asked "for what". After explaining to the manager what the issue was he showed no interest in resolving anything! Please do yourselves a favor especially if you are BLACK DO NOT GO HERE!!!! I promise you'll be extremely disappointed!!!!!!!! read more

This was our least favorite dining experience in Tulum. We wanted to try it because there were quite a few vegan options and that meant everyone in our party could eat here & enjoy. The staff was not friendly or welcoming at all. The ordering process was not seamless. The food came out staggered and left people in our party waiting while others had food. We were not in during a busy time, there were plenty of open seats. The food was mediocre at best, the worst that we had while in Tulum - and you still have the joy of paying full on Tulum prices! We didn't find any of our food to be fresh or taste good. read more

Refreshing juices and smoothies, hearty portions for brunch, and a serene atmosphere. They have another location in the town and it was the original one I wanted to check out- but I'm glad we stumbled on this one while driving back into the zona hotelera. Super tropical vibes and great service. Make sure to ask for their spicy sauce. They'll warn you that it's "muy picante" and maybe, like me, you'll take it as a challenge and put more than necessary on your food. This time... I should have believed them when they warned me. But it was delicious! Pro tip- parking on the side of Potheads is 100 pesos. You can also bike here. read more

I stayed bang opposite this brunch and breakfast place! Great place with quick service. II realised later that they also have rooms here - will definitely check them out maybe on my next trip to Tulum! Shrimp tacos were amazing! The amount of shrimp on the taco was wayyy too much - definitely a plus! ;) read more

Not much to chose from on slow rainy day. Food was just ok considering it's eggs at breakfast but priced more than the US. The service was borderline pleasant. Sad to see the Tulum Beach area after 30+ year with barely any improvements on the infrastructure just expensive new places that none of the local will be able to afford. read more

So good! Chilaquiles are extremely delicious! The tortillas were nice and perfectly crisped, so good! We both ordered green chilaquiles with chicken. Had chicken chunks instead of shredded which was a lot better! We were lucky to sit in the back jungly patio and our servers were great! Very friendly and extremely attentive! They would check in often to make sure we were ok, which was perfect because we kept wanting to order more things! Got two fresh squeezed juices- the green and carrot orange ginger, my fave. And both are coffees were so nice we had to order twice! My moKa was the bomb, like a nice Mexican hot coco. My bf loved his flat white. I took my second coffee to go so I could drink it on the way to Cobá. Would happily return!! read more

Aye..... Place is elite. Best breakfast spot I've been to in Tulum ! Waitress named Gabriela is phenomenal. She's hilarious and attentive to our needs. Food is good...my lady don't like shit but she enjoyed her sandwich . Overall experience is everything you want. Authentic Mexican food with a splash of American styles. Food ....service Decor and music is everything you want it to be. It started raining and they immediately changed our seats, smooth as a babies ass. She complimented my earring too, my shit was shining read more

My friends and I came to Tulum to check out the popular beach strip and wanted fresh juice. We ordered this turmeric orange juice for $100 peso and told the waiter/owner "to go." He gave our drink and upon paying $100 peso, he said $10 peso more. We were so confused with the additional charge. He said it's for the "to go" cup. So, why wasn't this disclosed on the menu or mentioned prior? Especially when we had informed him it was to go? We felt tricked with this sneaky hidden fee and told him he should mention the "to go" $10peso fee on the menu and he seemed pissed at us. He was rude and yelled at us as though we were wrong. Horrible service and the juice is nothing to brag about; turmeric wasn't blended well with the juice and had a gritty taste. Never going back! read more

Definitely not a place I would go again. Not friendly or welcoming . My food was ok but just had a basic breakfast. Took almost 40 min for the food to come after the second waiter came to ask me if I had ordered which I had 20 min before and when I paid they tried to short me $100P and casually said "oh sorry" when I said that it was wrong. Why do I feel like everyone here in Tulum is trying to rip me off?!? Very disappointing. Go somewhere else. read more

Cute spot with Wi-Fi, bicycle parking, fun art. We grabbed breakfast here one morning in Tulum. Service was great and prompt. Fun breakfast drinks (we tried the blended baileys espresso drink) and lots of options to pick up. Partner got a burrito, which he loved, and I got eggs Benedict, which was a 3.5/5. (No fault of the restaurant, just wasn't my favorite- also is my fault for ordering an eggs Benedict in Mexico ha) Would definitely come back and try something different. Cash only, so come prepared. There's an ATM across the way if you forget, like us. read more

This is the slowest place ever. If you want to spend half of your day just waiting for the menu and then another 3 months to get your food, and I don't even mention the check ( they will never give you back your change ) ONLY THEN you're welcomed there. Advice: if you're waiting your food more then 50 minutes, they totally forgot about it. So, try to catch any of the servers ( it's very difficult) and try to make your order again. It was happening with us every 2nd time. But the food is good though. read more

Cute little restaurant tucked into the tulum beach strip. I love the art on the wall and jungle feels surrounding. The most amazing is the service. It was our last morning before our flight out and we've ran out of pesos and cash. We read the review of another fellow yelper and they said the form of payment PayPal would be possible. This made our day. We contact the restaurant and Blaine was very responsive. He made accommodations and the staff was super friendly. We ordered the 20/20 carrot/orange juice. It was amazing! So refreshing and tasty. I also got the açaí berry bowl and it had a lot of toppings with just the right amount of sweetness. We also ordered the Mexican eggs in a pot. It had a unique flavor. Loved the flavored potatoes. I didn't really enjoy soggy tortilla on the bottom but that's probably because I'm not used to eating eggs with tortilla. Overall, I would definitely come here again if I'm in the tulum beach area! read more
