This is a hidden gem in amidst the city - some have said it's the best cafe in Maipu...I would say…read morethis cafe is one of the best in Santiago! I came here with a friend to have a cup of coffee after hearing all the amazing things: all-natural, organic, freshly roasted (they roast a batch daily)- seriously what more could you want? The coffee is a drip coffee and wash chosen specifically by the owner, a California expat who works alongside his Chilean wife. They make a great team and delicious coffee and pastries. I definitely recommend venturing over here to grab a cup of joe and read a good book (they have a book shelf filled with options if you don't want to bring your own). Tip: Fridays they have live music where the community comes together - you don't have to consume anything to enjoy the music but I don't see why you wouldn't take advantage and get yourself one of the best cups of coffee in Santiago.

We started as a group of 5 and quickly grew to 9, and they accommodated us without any issues. The staff was consistently friendly, flexible, and welcoming. The sandwiches are beautifully crafted with very generous portions. All brunch sandwiches come with any coffee you want, including specialty coffees, and a freshly made fruit juice. The classic eggs Benedict includes two toasts, and you can choose a different base for each one (avocado, bacon, smoked salmon, ham, etc.), which is a great touch. The "Top Winner" is an outstanding deal: one egg Benedict plus a supersized croissant with the spread of your choice. We stayed chatting for a while after eating, and they never rushed us to leave, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

For only 6,000 pesos, you can get a huge quiche with a side salad, a sandwich on French bread, or a big salad. Each of the options has multiple varieties to choose from. I was torn between the veggie quiche (zucchini, tomato, basil) and the chicken avocado sandwich. The hubs couldn't decide if he wanted the chicken curry salad or the roast beef one. Ultimately, we ended up with zucchini quiche and curry salad. Both were great! The hubby's salad had coconut flakes and deliciously seasoned curry chicken. I was impressed with the size of the quiche and the perfectly flaky crust. To drink, he had raspberry juice and I had limeade. After our lunch dishes were cleared, we received our coffees and a little coconut cookie on the side. A perfect ending to a lovely lunch. I definitely recommend you sit outside under one of the umbrellas. The outside space is so cozy and inviting. If you have some time (1.5 hours), you might also check out the MUI.

This cafe located in the otherwise drab Patronato, is one of my favorites and one of the first of its kind in Recoleta. As you pass by, you can't help put stop and stare at their perfectly made and beautifully designed pastries. As you walk in, you only find more interesting options. This is a Korean cafe and pastry shop where their description is in both Korean as well as Spanish (pretty cool if you ask me). Also, another thing that is interesting is the way they pre-package their pastries, giving them a more processed look even though they are made by them with few preservatives. They also have a great coffee selection of both sweet (machiatos, flavored coffees) as well as the normal espresso and latte - the perfect way to start your morning. I recommend accompanying your morning coffee with one of their many different bread options (they have both sweet and savory) My fav is their cheese bread. You can also buy loafs to take home. For the hotter days I always get one of their natural fruit smoothies (you can also go all out and get a surprisingly good milkshake). Tip: They have fairly cheap and beautiful personal cakes that are the perfect cake to give a coworker or friend. You can also order ahead of time and get a larger one made. Don't forget to take pictures because you won't find cakes like this anywhere else!
