We have visited your restaurant several times in the past few years we have a home in El Pescadero we discovered that you deliver you delicious bread to a restaurant in Todos Santos My nephew announced he was going for breakfast there and I asked him to order 3 loaves of your multigrain bread which is our favorite. He paid for the bread and told us it would be ready on Wednesday. I was presented with 3 loaves of bread when I arrived but this was not the bread we know and love. It was not in your traditional bag with De Lena's picture but it was wrapped in plain plastic bags. Very disappointed that we did not get the bread we paid for and were expecting I said something but was quickly dismissed by the woman at the front counter who spoke perfect English. Very disappointed we were taken advantage of read more

This town is so cute and this is the main restaurant there. The seating area is gorgeous and plenty! You walk thought the building to their outside courtyard that has many tables, then when you pass the pizza cooking area, there are stairs that lead down to more seating. It is such a gorgeous place! It makes you feel like you're in the middle of Italy. It is truly a paradise. I ordered the vegetable pizza, but there were so many items that looked really good. They had a whole section on their menu about their bread and now I wish I ordered something including their bread because someone else in our party ordered the French toast and that was the best French toast I've ever had! The bread was a cranberry walnut bread and their butter was so nice and creamy. Omg I wish I had ordered that! I hope I get to visit this town again because I most definitely want to order that next time. The bread is so thick and fluffy. My pizza, nonetheless, was still really good as well. They have chili oil out on the table which added a nice touch to the pizza. One thing to note is that none of the waitresses speak English, so it's a truly Mexican experience. On our way out, we ordered pastries to go. We got their bread pudding which was not great (at least not later in the day) and also this croissant pastry filled with creme and fruit like strawberries and blueberries and it was so good! I normally hate fruit in desserts and I also don't like croissants, but whatever cream was in the middle made the whole thing come together so well! It was similar tasting to a blintz and that's one of my favorite desserts. I would never ordered that on my own, but I'm so glad we got it! read more

We stopped by for breakfast and were delighted by assorted pastries to choose from. We chose to stay and have breakfast and after I opened a few of the pastry boxes that were "to go" we had a few bites from each one and an omelet to boot! read more

Caffe El Triunfo is on a parallel side street, 2 blocks from the main highway through town. Thanks to Yelpers, we found it. The street is reminiscent of small towns in Spain - narrow streets with brick buildings and cement steps up to the front door sidewalks. The Caffe is next door to the city hall, both hidden amongst the trees. The caffe was once a 2-3 story building, but appears to be a repurposed rustic ruin. An outside canopy replaces a once existing roof. Several ovens and chimneys appear above the roof line, reminiscent of a once existing "taller" for smelting silver, gold, plates and pottery. Today the building has become the bakery (and restaurant) of Marcus Spahr, a bread maker trained in France. The building was the ideal conversion from smelting plant to bakery. The owner claims to have designed his own ovens, based on 25 years of research in bread making. Our family of "viejos" (6 patriarchs attending a wedding in Los Barriles) found this quaint, rustic restaurant on an afternoon return trip from La Paz. I'm the Spanish speaker in the family, quickly reading the menu and realizing that an order of sliced fresh breads with butter, from the oven, should be the focus of the lunch. OMG, was that the right choice! The multigrain breads with nutty, chewy flavors, proofed and baked over a 24-hour cycle, created a hint of sweet sourdough aromas that lingered on the palate. Add the taste of real butter, and the whole experience was Heaven! I could go on and on and on...but I'll let the pictures tell the rest This is a 5-Star stop in old Mexico! read more

The ambience is great, the food is good, but I feel it is way over priced. The chicken salad croissant sandwich is great, pizza is good, margaritas, far too good . read more

We arrived early after having breakfast at our hotel. Wish we had skipped breakfast and waited to eat here. Ordered a cinnamon bun to split among the three of us. We can't stop thinking about the cinnamon bun. Quite literally the best I've ever had. Stuff dreams are made of. Charming town and incredibly friendly locals. Well worth the day trip. read more

Caffe El Triunfo - Pizza Near Me - El Triunfo, BCS

So glad we decided to stop into this wonderful old gold and silver mining town. Quick history: Founded in the late 18th century by Manuel de Ocio. In the late 1800's a British mining group took over and became a boomtown. In the 1900's, the mines closed and went away. Fast forward to now: It's a fabulous spot, once again. This spot started becoming the place to be when Marcus Spahr (head of Caffe Todos Santos) left the West Cape and brought a wood-burning pizza oven here. They now bake fresh goodies for all that stay and pass through. Let me tell you, the carrot cake is fantastic! Even if you're only passing through, make sure to stop by and have a snack or meal here. It is so damn pretty...and huge! What a great town! read more

An absolute oasis in the middle of historic El Triunfo, BCS. We had house made limonada, artisan bread, a delightful salad and a huge fresh croissant. Yum! read more

Didn't knock our socks off like we expected. We really liked that the pizza had lots of veggie toppings and it tasted good, but not outstanding. Service was not attentive at all. But I think that might have just been our server. The other server seemed better. Salad was OK. Next time I might try avocado toast or something with their bread. But honestly the sandwich I had at nomada are in La Ventanawith their bread was way better than anything on their menu. read more

I have another tip for you while you are in Baja - take a day trip to the small town of El Triunfo. Go up there in the morning and have breakfast at Caffe El Triunfo, walk around for a few hours (check out the piano museum, the ruins of the silver mines, the church, etc.) and come back to Caffe El Triunfo for lunch. You probably won't be very hungry yet, but you will be glad you came back again. El Triunfo is a small silver mining town about 45 minutes south of La Paz and about 55 minutes north of Todos Santos. It is right on Highway 1 - so heading from Todos Santos you go about 45 KM north on Highway 19 until you see an overpass - it is the ONLY turnoff/overpass you will have seen since leaving TS - there is nothing else out there - the locals call this "the Y" (except they say it in Spanish). Hang a right and you will be heading SE up into the mountains. You will pass the Cactus Sanctuary (Santuario de los Cactus) and a few minutes later you will roll into town - be careful not to roll right through it, it is pretty small. Caffe El Triunfo is the only place to eat and well worth the trip - it is a culinary delight amongst the rubble of the silver mines - dare I call it "the silver lining"? They serve breakfast and lunch and make incredible breads for which people drive from TS and La Paz to get for their special holiday meals. And they are open every day - 365 days a year. The Caffe was opened by Mark Spahr 7 or so years ago. Don't worry about the details, when you go you will likely meet him and he will probably graciously tell you his entire story (as he did with us that morning, and was doing that with another couple when we came back for lunch). While the Caffe has only been open for less than 10 years, Mark has been baking breads of various types for over 25 years, and his expertise certainly shows through the end product. When you walk in you will be greeted by the sights and smells of tarts, sticky buns, and various other wonderful looking breakfast pastries - but hold fast. Pause, enjoy, and maybe order a café Latte, but then keep on going to where the real breakfast awaits - the patio in the back. They have eggs, steak, bacon, and all the goodies - and yes, the wonderful breads from the front. When you are done with breakfast go explore, because I guarantee you took a peak at the lunch menu and decided to come back. For lunch you can get one of his excellent pizzas cooked in the brick oven, a steak sandwich on his excellent bread, or maybe the homemade ravioli. All of it is great. But before you go, or when you come back for lunch, walk around and enjoy what Mark has done with the place, watch the birds in the bushes, look at the pictures in the small side room, and enjoy the art displayed throughout the building - much of it there to honor the Chinese who worked the mines. This place is truly a treat and worth the short drive away from the beaches of Baja into the equally interesting mountain region. read more

Fantastic food in a small charming town! We always enjoy stopping at Caffe El Triunfo for lunch after exploring this historic town. The salad is fresh and bursting with flavor. We've enjoyed everything we've tried here; salads, sandwiches on artisan bread, brick oven pizza and home made pasta. Extraordinary, not run-of-the-mill fare. On our most recent visit we noticed the level of service has greatly improved. We'll be back for sure. read more

Great food! I got the Hawaiian pizza and it was the best I ever had! Lemonade was really good too. Service was friendly and spoke good English. It is great for groups as they have a lot of seating. I recommend it! read more

Really the best of two worlds- authentic old world Mexican charm & artisan breads & pastries baked by the legendary Marcus Spahr. Self taught, trial & error. Marcus has perfected the art of bread making. From start to finish his bread takes 24 hours. The cold fermentation process he uses give his breads a natural sweetness & nut-like character. BTW you can purchase Ojai Jelly there too, whole supplies last! If you get a chance to talk with Marcus, DO! read more

Beautiful historic patio seating. Pet friendly. Home made yummy bread appetizer. Amazing chicken salad on homemade croissant with an awesome side salad. Hubby had tuna burger with fries and raved about it. Both were big enough to share. 2 beers. $36. Great friendly service. Well worth it, highly recommend. read more

The food was great, but I have a problem with their bathrooms. 1: why one can look through the knob hole and the person using the toilet? 2: why there were no lavatory in the lower bathrooms? This really surprises me because the owner of this place is an American, and as such, he should know that his business is patronized by other Americans who think this is totally unacceptable. read more

Go for the bread, stay for the food! Fantastic pizza and salads as well as specials. Had the pulled pork today and would definitely recommend. We have been coming here for years and it just keeps getting better. If you are in BCS, it is worth the drive to stop and eat here. read more

We visited this cute old mining town last week, and up the road to Los Barrellos (for fruit empanadas!) we happened upon this cafe, which is next to the mining museum. It feels like you are in Spain or Italy, opening up to a beautiful courtyard and al fresco dining. We had an amazing lunch of pulled pork sandwiches and arugula/goat cheese/sugared walnuts and cranberries salad with a mango drink....the fresh bread from the wood fired oven was amazing! This was the best meal that we had in Mexico! Well worth the drive from La Paz! One of the highlights of our trip! read more

This place is absolutely a must-see. If you're passing by stop and grab their delicious cranberry and walnut bread or any of their dishes. Been here a couple times with my partner and it never fails! Such a wonderful place read more

Didn't eat here...but luv their bread. Found their bread at Sunday market in Pescadero....so wanted to explore El Triunfo' s new museum...wow...brand new, and well organized museum. Afterwards, went to cafe for weekly loaf of bread. Just wished they didn't burn outside of Gorgonzola and garlic bread...as I always have to cut off crust....it's a shame because crust is best part. read more

What a surprise this place was. Stopped at this small out of the way town on the way to see a waterfall in Santiago, and from the outside, I thought it would just have the two little tables out front. I was blown away when I walked in to see the amazing, huge,patio out back. Place is one of a kind beautiful. The pictures on this site are great, but they can't do it justice. Had the enchiladas. Perfect. Fresh everything. Huge portion. Margaritas were strong and tasty. If you ever go to Todos Santos while in Cabo, take the time to check this place out. (Less than an hour east of Todos Santos) Wife had the tuna tacos which were out of this world too. Sushi grade tuna or better, with an amazing grilled taste. Wish we could have stayed longer. read more

This place has a lot of character. It reminds me of an old hacienda. We were ignored at first. We had to ask someone for a table and our pizzas took more THAN An HOUR. We inquired why the delay and were told oven had turned off. Yet, our salad wasn't served to us either. We had to remind them of the salad. The restroom facility is ONE. Yes, one for the size of this place is Just absurd. We inquired about a possible second one and were sent downstairs. There was only an available toilet No sink to wash hands! read more
