A hidden gem in Playa😍 With an amazing patio, tasty food, and friendly staff, this spot is a must-visit. The best part is they don’t serve meat. If you’re vegetarian or eat only halal, this is the perfect place for you.

The brunch options are hearty and satisfying. We tried the Americano brunch this time, which includes fresh orange juice, coffee, a house-made pastry, eggs with potatoes and veggies, and a touch of traditional sauce. Highly recommended.

A latte, a mocha and the grilled cheese sandwich. All decent. The bread section if hyped though. Cool with all of the different types of milks. Big menu with a nice selections of good sweet stuff and tasty savory options.
The portions are big and filling.

Fast wifi but be prepared for laptops filling the tables.. im torn whether I feel it takes away from the vibe or adds to it. Nice, calming lo-fi beats.

Clean toilets. All though you might get into an embarrassing situation bc they are easily water-emptied so... be patient in there, to be able to flush.

Nice service from the staff. I love the outside sitting area. Dog friendly :) Overall, a good spot for a relaxed vibe.

My favorite coffee and working spot, it’s a vegetarian place but they have eggs.

Kombucha is also available so that was a treat.

Indoor and outdoor seating allows for any weather and spots to work.

Their wifi is decent and have plenty of breakfast and lunch options. I believe they have hot tea as well.

It’s connected to a home decor place so you can decorate the house while you sip cafe

Great spot for a relax afternoon! The ambiance is great and also a great spot to meet other travelers. The coffee was really good with great service. The place was clean and with all covid 19 protocols. The only things is they amount of expats occupying tables while they work. There should a limit for how many minutes they can stay.
