Avocado toast with salmon
Indera H.

So nice, we went twice. What can I say about Ki'Bok, we loved the setting, felt like we were eating in an enchanted jungle with friendly cats who are welcomed here, the owners and servers are all sweet and provide great service. The food and drinks were perfection. Absolutely everything we consumed was so delicious. Go eat here, you'll love it.

After some research, this came up as the top 3 coffee spots in Tulum. After having it twice in less than 24 hours (only because we discovered it the day before we left).... I would agree this spot is a must visit for coffee in Tulum. Honestly, I'd say to date, this is the BEST coffee I've had. It's right next to the jungle gym and it was 1/2 a mile from where we were staying. Wonderful little walk. Had I discovered this sooner, I would have gone daily. Both times I went I enjoyed the double iced vanilla latte with whole milk. It was SO YUM-O! I wanted to gulp this thing down so fast, but had to hold back from doing so. I'm still thinking about it as I sit here and write this review, haha! The coffee was strong, yet smooth and perfectly sweet. This coffee spot is adorable with the jungle like vibe that's peaceful and inviting. Staff were friendly and attentive. I love how the menus were in Spanish and English (which I needed). We got our orders to go each visit, but next trip to Tulum, I will be going each day, and likely enjoy there. What I also loved was the fantastic messages written on our to-go cups.

I recently returned to ki'Bok on my visit to Tulum and discovered that the restaurant has moved to a bigger location in the La Veleta neighborhood. My family and I went for breakfast right after they opened on a Sunday morning. The new location is spacious and entirely outdoors. Since we arrived early, it wasn't crowded at all--we were among the first customers. Our drink orders were taken immediately and arrived just as quickly. I had a Cafe Cubano, while my wife enjoyed an iced latte. My oldest son had an iced chocolate, and my youngest ordered a mango agua fresca. All the drinks were delicious. For food, we ordered red and green chilaquiles, pan Frances, and a canasta de pan. The food was even better than the drinks.

We went back!!! Just the best people here:) I absolutely recommend this place to anyone who's in need of any kind of great beverages and food.

Espresso macchiato presentation average flavor good.

Great service here. My espresso macchiato had an average presentation in the flavor was good. I had a Rubies-beet, turmeric, ginger, black pepper $32.It was delicious. The other person in my party had one of their smoothies, which was outstanding and not overly sweet perfect.

My 2nd visit here was just as solid as the first time. Tasty food, well-priced for Tulum! Great coffee. Juices and smoothies are delish. The house hot sauce is worth asking for. A large airy courtyard type seating area gives a nice "I'm in the tropics!" vibe but is arranged such that there's always areas with shade and a hint of breeze. A little outside of the main part of town, in an area with newish expat-leaning businesses wedged into a neighborhood. Still bike-able from town, though there's a reasonable amount of parking (for Tulum). Fast internet with multiple wireless SSIDs makes for good connectivity. The service is quiet, efficient and attentive, without being intrusive, even if you're lingering. There's a couple of cute cafe cats wandering through, minding their own business. Cat people will delight (I know I did). I always hesitate to recommend my favorite places, trying to balance making sure they thrive with not having them be swamped when I visit. Since these guys have been around a while, I feel like the "boost" option is appropriate. If I lived here, instead of just visited occasionally, I would be here All.The.Time. Highly Recommended.

Eating Area

We just got back from an 8 day journey in the Riviera Maya and of all the places we tried, this one not only hits my number one spot for this entire trip but my number one spot for breakfast in the history of my life! (Its a long one but if you if you want to know why this place is now embedded in my forever memory - skip to the last part) Our Air B&B was right around the corner from this place. Was it a coinkdink or was the universe rewarding me in the best way ever? Pretty sure the universe was like you know what, your husband forgot it was your birthday and you were dressed and ready and you cried alone in the car and I feel bad for you. That was many months ago but I will take it. Thank you universe! We ended up going for breakfast two days in a row and ordered the exact same thing because everyone in my family just loved it. Here is what I ordered. Seems like a lot of food but it was actually for my two boys and I to share. I ordered the Ki'Bok breakfast, some pancakes, bread basket, and plate of fruit and yogurt. I did not try the pancakes because well its pancakes and I wanted to reserve my stomachial space for actual food. Let me start with the yogurt and fruit. I didnt take a picture but it was watermelon, papaya, banana and I cant remember what other fruits. The yogurt was more like a sweet sauce that complimented the fruit very well and was such a light treat. The bread basket was enough for the entire table to share. It appeared to be a focaccia with rosemary. It was great on its own perfectly buttery and it was accompanied by pineapple jam and butter. So good so good! The ki'bok breakfast. Its two fried eggs with a perfectly runny yolk, cherry tomatoes, bacon, red onions. I believe that it's supposed to come with avocado, mine didn't but honestly, I didn't miss it at all. My picture is not the best as I couldn't resist devouring it before even thinking of snapping a pic. Oh and the drinks, I was too scared my stomach was wasn't going behave if I had coffee so I didn't even have coffee. Thats okay because both days I had the after glow juice. I was so refreshing and it was more on the strawberry side I really enjoyed it. I wish it was bigger cups with more ice and more juice but that may just be the American way that I'm used to. Now when I tell you after I had this, I couldn't stop thinking about it. I was in a cab and I brought it up. Went to the most gorgeous beach and swam the most beautiful waters but all I could think about was this. This isn't even a food its a condiment! One that changed me forever. In a good way. The waitress called it "habanerito". I love heat. True heat. If it says spicy it better set me on fire or else it gets a big no. This was more like a habanero butter. I not only finished the first container, I dipped my egg all the way into the next until I was clean. Like had I been left alone with no one around I would have more likely licked the entire container. Was I sweating profusely? Yes but I came in that way. But did it make it worse? Honestly I feel like I blacked out. In a good way. I've never had anything like it and I wont rest until I can recreate it. Here is a link to their current breakfast and lunch menu as of 7/11/23 https://drive.google.com/file/d/13JMDq8uFeFYApi_BJ9_mUBvkiqGC1UxB/view?pli=1

French Toast
Thomas R.

The ambience is super chill, coffee and food are great. The service is very friendly.

Christina L.

Amazing! We went here every single day we were in Tulum for my bachelorette trip, the staff is soo wonderful and sweet! We loved the quotes on the to go cups every day. We will be back again! Delicious coffee

French toast with caramelized apples and vanilla latte
Lien P.

During my visit to Tulum this was the best cafe I visited! Mostly due to the cats that hang at the cafe. The food was also great too! I got the French toast and an iced vanilla latte. The French toast was perfect, l and not too sweet. While eating the cats at the cafe came up to us and were so friendly! One even tried to eat our food. My friends got the chilaquiles and those were bomb too! If I came back to Tulum I would definitely visit this cafe again.

Chicken burrito
Bryan F.

Everything was amazing! Such good coffee too! Service was super quick and the servers were very helpful. Ambiance is soooooo freaking cute too.

Orange and strawberry juice
Linda R.

We've visited both locations - SMA and Tulum. Both locations are awesome. Their breakfasts are legit. Chilaquiles verde, enchiladas verde, Ki Bok breakfast, chai latte, vanilla latte, and fresh juices. Service is friendly, street parking can be tricky if you come at peak hours, the space is large enough to spread out. This is our go to spot when we go to SMA and Tulum. Highly recommend.

Vanilla Latte
Jennifer B.

Good coffee with a large seating area that has lots of shaded sections. The vanilla latte was fresh, cold and delicious!

This was a complete vibe. This was one of the stops on our breakfast tour of Tulum (unofficial tour…read morelol - we just tried a lot of breakfast places) We sat outside on these beautiful tables and ordered a bunch of food that we all tried. I had a croque madame as well as this french toast with strawberries. It was delicious (I didn't love the croque madame, but I think it was made well). We also got a wide variety of drinks which I recall being absolutely delicious. As always in Tulum, the service was fantastic, enriching our overall experience. If you stay in Tulum and not on a resort, I recommend swinging over to this spot to try the delicious food for brunch!

I give 5 stars for the service and the ambience, 5 stars for the presentation of the food and…read morecoffee, 4 stars for the flavor of the food, and 3 stars for the flavor of the coffee. I will admit though, my American palate is accustomed to food heavy-handed with salt and sugar and this was the first place we tried off the resort. There is no denying how fresh everything was! If you're in Tulum, I do think it's worth stopping by and checking out this place. If for nothing else, the ambience and the service. They are some of the nicest people we met in Mexico and everything presented was beautiful. I mean look at the art work for that french toast! Yes, that's french toast under that beautiful strawberry design. The mushroom quiche was good, but needed a little more flavor including salt. Like I said, probably just my taste buds. The coffee fell a little flat for me. I ordered an iced latte. My husband had a flat white and liked his for the most part. I love that they have live musicians stop by - there was a flute player and a guitar player in the short hour we were there and both were so good. Overall, the place has a cute vibe and is a great spot to chill and have some food and coffee.

We sat outside after walking the town a little bit. It was very peaceful, yet you saw and heard lots of conversation. It almost didn't feel like you were in coffee shop. Our server was friendly and informative. I enjoyed the iced latte and my friend enjoyed papaya lemonade. There was so much foam on my iced latte, more than I've ever had anywhere. It was delicious and oh so refreshing. I loved the strong flavors. My friend's papaya lemonade was very refreshing and something I'd likely never gravitate towards because I love coffee so much, but if I ever go back, I'd definitely get it. The flavor was excellent. The sandwiches, pastries, and bread looked delish. Next time I'll try that as well.
