Black and White is a coffee shop where expats gather to have coffee and desserts enjoying people-watch or converse with others. They have many tables with umbrellas outside. The menu has tons of drinks to choose between hot and cold beverages as well as desserts. Some of us ordered the cappuccino, lemon pie, raspberry cheese cake, Oreo ice cream with chocolate shell and brownie with chocolate syrup. The desserts and drinks were delicious and tasty at reasonably priced. The service was slow as it was busy. This is cash only. We can recommend this place.

My favorite drink is the limonada with mineral water no sugar. Nice and tart, very refreshing for the somewhat warm early afternoon. The temperature isn't so hot but you're up high here (over 5000 ft elevation) so the sun can be intense! Sit under the big umbrellas outside and enjoy the breeze!

This is the best coffee place that I hace found south of Guadalajara. I had been struggling to…read morefind a cafe in Chapala where I live, that is conducive for working. There are just 2 cafes in Chapala, but they are definitely not set up for people to stay a while. And their Internet just sucks! So I traveled all the way over here with the hopes of finding a better place. It's my first time here, and after just 10 minutes, I think that I have found that place. Firstly the cafe is expansive, with plenty of tables and very comfortable chairs for people to sit. Here there are real outlets to plug in your laptop, and really great WiFi so far. I really needed to find a place like this where I can get stuff done, as well as, enjoy a frapuchino and chocolate muffin. The caramel frapuchino that I ordered was around $70 and it's the centi size, quite delicious. We'll see how long this frappuchino takes me, because I usually try to work 8 - 10 hours.

Our adopted home town, Bellingham WA, has coffee offering ranging from standard to artisan. Cafe Grano Cafe (I know, is it "Coffee Grain Cafe" or is it ""Cafe Coffee Grain" - languages are funny) is as fine an artisan coffee house as I've experienced. Delicious mochas and lattes with fine coffee art, tasty pastries and cakes, and bins of in house roasted coffees to take home for tomorrow. A fellow northwesterner here reviewed the service critically. It wasn't "American standard" for us either, but we came here to chill, and the cadence was fine to us. Accidentally missing an order can happen anywhere and it's always discomforting. Ours was handled nicely and we left delighted and refreshed.

The barista blankly said no and then checked the carton when I just stood there.. he said that it actually did have artificial sweetener so I asked if I could have my drink remade with a different kind of milk. It wouldn't have been an issue, but the barista rolled his eyes and started whispering with the other female barista. (There were also only two other people in the whole place, so it shouldn't have been an issue.) When they finished my drink he left it on the counter without any comment. There are so many great coffee places in the area that I recommend you skip this one.

Upon entering this morning, my partner, his family, our friends and I were greeted by the staff and one of the family owned members, Thomas.

We ordered the Sweet Potato Pancakes with 2 eggs and fruits, Jazmin Rice Waffles with eggs bacon and fruits, Breakfast burrito with pesto potatoes, Open Face Omelette with lemon dill cream cheese, smoked salmon and grilled asparagus, Omelette with onions, mushrooms and tomatoes with pesto potatoes, and blackberry muffin. The food was excellent as the chef is obviously highly experienced in the culinary arts. The service was great in a relaxing atmosphere which we can highly recommend.

The friendly employee behind the counter told me that their frappe is very similar to the standard frapuchino. So I went ahead and got the medium sized cafe frappe. It tasted delicious but it had more on the crushed ice taste rather than a smooth creamy taste of a frapuchino. I had no problem finishing it especially after the 5+ kilometer hike to get here. The cafe is quite spacious and there is a large outdoor section as well that is covered. They have free WiFi and there are more than enough tables and chairs to accommodate a lot of people. There was also no loud music which I also appreciated.
