it takes a little bit of work to get here from hotel zone if you are taking the r1 or r2 we had to walk about a mile after getting off the bus but had this selected as our breakfast place choice and it was well worth the effort to walk there. They treated us like royalty. The service was amazing and the chef even came out to chat with us. Coffee was spectacular and my husband asked for a recommendation on the most traditional breakfast he could get there and he loved it as it had chicaronnes in there along with tons of flavor. I had the waffle eggs and bacon and I enjoyed how thin the bacon was cut because it actually cooked up nice and crisp. atmosphere is airy and modern and the baked goods all looked spectacular however I just had no room to sample any. read more

A group of us went to dinner and then wanted to get dessert out. This place was a cute little gem with a really friendly staff. I got the chocolate dome, which was a chocolate and vanilla moose in a dome of dark chocolate. It was really good. I also tried the red velvet cake, brownies, and cherry macaroons which were all tasty. I will say, I've never really liked macaroons but these were something I would choose to get again. None of us ordered it, but there was a really cool French press coffee that they made at the table (boiled water over stereo up into another glass dome that was connected to it, then turned off the heat and the coffee filtered down). Someone at the next table ordered it so we were able to watch. It was so neat. Definitely order that if you're a coffee person. read more

Great food. Good start to our vacation. Micheladas were tasty. Will for sure be trying it again next time I come!

La pasteleteria came highly recommended from our Airbnb host and it is visited by locals and tourist. You can park right in front the parking is 13 pesos for like first 2 hours. Free for first 10 min if you are just doing something in and out in the plaza (like using atm at Scotia Bank). We actually parked across the street for free like locals do. I imagine on weekend you wouldn't find a spot. For drinks my husband got the mango pineapple smoothie drink which was delicious. I got the hot chocolate. The hot chocolate was better than tourist traps( nestle pre made) but not as good as other Mexican restaurants I've been too. Was still worth trying though. Food. Be warned in Mexico breakfast places they put out breads and pastries but these are not complimentary. You pay what you consume. They looked good but what opted to what for main dishes. My husband had enfrijoladas de bajío. It was underwhelming to say the least. We got it without meat maybe that makes a difference? The chilaquiles were way better and we could have probably shared it (although server said it was only big enough for one person). I got both red and green sauce I liked the red sauce more. Overall it was good and nice to be away from tourist places, they accept visa! but it was not the best breakfast I had in Mexico, but definitely worth a visit. read more

We were looking for a Belgian waffle place, but when we saw Pasteletería Malecon, decided to brunch here instead. It's on the beach side of Plaza Las Americas. As the restaurant name suggests, Pasteletería offers a vast array of dessert sweets, actually having a little shop inside the restaurant where you can pick up take-out treats. We had a great breakfast and look forward to returning. The interior is clean, stylish and modern. I loved the brick walls. Pasteletería Malecon has that special knack for playing unobtrusive background music at exactly the right volume. Very nice. They offered us bread and we accepted (me say no to bread?). The basket was filled with a very nice selection of different sizes and shapes. As an FYI - they charge a nominal fee for the bread. I liked that the butter pats came individually wrapped in a dried leaf. JP ordered an Eggs Benedict that was perfectly prepared, served with slices of tomato and white cheese. It was delicious. I opted for an omelet (with mushrooms, of course). Accompanied by deftly seasoned potatoes was a fruit kebob: blueberry, mango, papaya and honeydew. The fruit was sweet and spot on. Of great interest to me was the coffee brewed at the table next to us. Pasteletería used a 3' high device that relied on the physics of gravity and heat energy (plus other bells and whistles) to produce a coffee that very visibly delighted its imbibers. However, it sure took a lot of time and painstaking manipulation by the server with a blowtorch, to successfully launch the brew process. I'm going to definitely order that coffee next time I'm here. read more

This restaurant is very nice, good decor, lots of seating indoor and outdoor. There's a bakery side if you don't want to eat in. Staff service was average. I got the veranda crepe - spinach, mushroom, cream cheese covered in a white cheesy sauce. For me, it was alright but maybe not the best decision for a breakfast. They offer you a basket of pastries, they are not free but you are charged for each piece you take. They do look good. I got the chocolate croissant - it was just okay...there's some chocolate inside but the pastry itself is a little thick and not flaky. read more

Fantastic food, good service, and welcoming decor make La Pasteleria a must for visitors in Cancun. We ordered a King Kong Smoothie (banana/chocolate), the Tricolor Flautas, an Aztec Crepe, and a Mole Chicken dish. The King Kong Smoothie was the perfect thing to order for someone who is trying to stay cool in the heat. The black mole was chocolatey and nutty and had some fresh cream on top and was delicious. The Aztec Crepe was likewise a highlight. Don't let the Mexican Cheesecake Factory vibe fool you--this place is an absolute gem! read more

Went here for breakfast. Where quickly greeted and seated where we desired on patio. Ordered our drinks (coffee and orange juice with kids chocolate milk) as we waited for our food our drinks were brought out with bread. We thought it was complimentary bread as we waited but little did we know they purposely bring bread out and charge what you touch. :( would have been nice to be advices about this as my child quickly grabbed a bit of everyone as I was busy chatting with mother. Coffee was delicious, waffle was delicious, omelettes were ok, we've have better. Recommend for good coffee and yummy bread. Prices were but expensive. Around $$ten dollars per person$$ read more

Went here for breakfast our first day in Cancun- it was within walking distance to where we were staying so super convenient. When we sat down they brought us a basket of pastries which were pretty tasty (we thought they were free, like when you get bread with your meal but in the end they ended up charging us). Also ordered a michelada here and I'm used to this being more red due to the tomatoes and this was a more brown color but boy did it taste good! I ordered the Chilaquiles with verde sauce and fried eggs- it was huge and so good! The verde sauce was the perfectly tart and our waiter brought us out some AMAZING hot sauce! Overall I would come back here for breakfast/brunch next time I'm in Cancun and recommend it to friends and family! read more

The food was amazing. Had salmon ceviche, it was some of if not the best I've ever had. We also had molcajate (probably spelling it wrong). The flavor was incredible. We didn't have any alcohol. The juice I had was average. Service was average. Coffee wasn't good. We got there at noon and couldn't have breakfast so if you're a late riser go for lunch. The food was great though. read more

Dessert was good but what really stood out to me was their service. Don't mean to call out our server out but he needs to be. Jose. Super rude. Everyone else is super sweet but the server and two other people one female by the cash register at the drinks and the male who I am assuming flirting with are super rude. Zero help. But more importantly the server Jose was telling the other male how we are just ordering bread and gave us the dirty look. On top of that, Jose got our drink order wrong. Then Jose came over and ask us how much tip we want to give with the bill. At that rate I really didn't want to give tip. But we needed up to give 5% tip because we just want to hurry up get out of there, enjoy our trip in Cancun,and away from Jose snobby attitude & rolling eyes. Excuse my bitterness, it must have came out of my nasty incorrect drink. Way to go Jose. I recommend if you come here, know what you want and get a different server. desserts & bread good. For bread we got chocolate croissant, vanilla cream filled and cheese tart looking. Dessert we got lemon tart and strawberry cheese cake. For he business I recommend those who are working on the front of the business to become servers because they are much more nicer than the actual servers themselves. read more

I spent a nice afternoon with a book indoors by the window. It was a warm day so for me, I preferred staying inside with the air. The basket was full of tasty treats... I tried to eat a taste of all of them since the selection was nice (didnt realize the costs for each) and that you didnt have to eat all of them! Anyhow, I enjoyed some tea and brunch and a "show." By show, I mean the gentleman in front of me chowing down two huge entree plates. Flautas never looked soooooo good. I can still hear the :::crispcrisp::: sounds. I tried to give him the eye that I enjoyed watching him eat, but then realized how creepy that may look. Anyways, had I not been so full, I probably would have ordered some. Overall, friendly staff and a great food. (I took off a star mainly bc on the window ledge, there was an ant army. They didn't crawl to my table but still a bit uneasy being near so many.) Anyway, I would definitely go back! read more

Took a start to a late breakfast (brunch) and was happy with the chilaquiles with egg AND chicken.

I am still here eating but I had to stop and review, first time ever I take a break from food to write. This place is amazing, I been in cancun for two weeks, this place was on my list to come, I wish I came sooner but I have more days left so I will be back. This coffee I had is absolutely delicious, made right in front of you in this heated cylinder, it felt like I was in science class. It's so worth the trip just to have this. The place is huge, menu is in Spanish, pancakes the best I ever had, the baked goods you get while you wait are to die for. The service impeccable. I just ordered more food will be back to update this and post more pics. read more

Omg the bread basket they gave us when we sat down was beautiful and each one had its own unique taste and every piece tasted delicious! The only thing is that I was too full to eat my regular meal after trying all 6 pastry items. Overall, fabulous presentation and great vibe! I recommend everyone to come and try their pastries. This first part of review was written before the bill came. This part of the review after we saw the bill. A final note for people who thought the 6 pastry were free like we did. They are NOT free. As the bill came, I noticed they listed the pastry for 21 pesos each. We didn't mind the charge but just to warn people for people who thought that it's complimentary like we thought. If you can speak Spanish ask. The whole experience was still fabulous! read more

4.5 stars-This was probably One of my favorite meals while I was visiting Mexico. I love breakfast, and I found the breakfast to be filling, high quality, and The restaurant was extremely clean and organized. I felt very comfortable eating here, and would certainly go back. The restaurant itself is also a pastry shop, so for those who don't want to sit down to eat, their excellent bread and pastry is available to buy and take out. I was initially impressed by the cleanliness and class of the restaurant. It looked very high-end, and I was surprised to find that the prices, at least to an American Eye, were very reasonable for what you get. The restaurant is laid out well, and is also two floors. I felt very comfortable eating there, end it wasn't too crowded or too loud. Being in Cancun, there were definitely tourists, but it seemed to me that there were some locals as well, which is a good sign. I found the staff to be very professional and helpful, and even though I don't fully speak Spanish, they were patient and accommodating. I ate breakfast on this trip, and I thought the food was wonderful! It's always a bit daunting when you order something new, especially when you can't read the menu, but I was pleased to find that the food was fresh, well prepared, and incredibly tasty. You can even order a basket of different kinds of bread, which is pretty nice. Overall, this was a wonderful stop and a great breakfast, and if I found myself in this area of Cancun again, I would absolutely visit. read more

I've been here for breakfast twice this week. Once with a group and once alone. Real convenient to Residencial Malecon Torres Panama and Montevideo. This is probably the best of the restaurants on this particular strip at Malecon Americas. Best food and atmosphere. While with the group, before ordering, the brought us a basket of pan dulce which is a great touch. Whenever​ I am in Mexico, I must have the concha. Usually I have coffee and concha while in Mexico for breakfast every day. The first visit, I had one of their Chilaquiles. It was the special one on the menu with a mixture of meats. I had them add a fried egg. This was great but a little more than I generally eat for breakfast. Very good, however. I guess watching episodes of Pati's Mexican Table and Rick Bayless' Mexico: One Plate at a Time have been paying off from my recognition of these Yucatecan dishes. The second time while alone, I order Huarache con Conchinita Pibil. I loved it. The thicker more firm fried base as opposed to tacos or softer sopas stand up to the wetter salsas and sauces extremely well. And it was not as filling to me as the Chilaquiles. I'm sure that I will eat breakfast here more often during this visit. Worth a try if you are in the Malecon Americas area. read more

I used to love this place, and visit every time we come to Cancun. But I feel like the quality of the food went down big time. Instead of serving well-prepared high quality dishes, we had some food that tasted more like Tex-Mex. read more

The food is amazing but the service can get much better. I asked for a hot sauce, I never saw the waitress again and my friend asked what fresh juices they had and she said she'd come back but never did as well. I still give a 4* because their crepe was one of the best I ever had the whole thing is just not worth the 5* read more

What an amazing place! The deserts are delicious and the service is great.

Almost average restaurant. Just finished my lunch here. We ordered crepe and fish(don't remember the exact name). Crepe was ok with ice cream and caramel topping. Presentation was good, taste was average and I couldn't complete the second half of the crepe. Fish had a side of salad, tortilla and rice. Salad had some kind of small roach in it and so we removed salad and kept it aside. Until we noticed the roach in the salad I guess we were enjoying the fish but after we couldn't ! Obviously not going to come back here! Sometimes Yelp ratings are overrated and u tend to take a wrong decision based on it! read more

I was recommended to eat breakfast here by a local that I met while on the plane. It did not disappoint! The location is in a nice spot. The restaurant is really pretty on the inside. We went early and were the only ones there for a while. I had the enchilaquiles! They were so yummy. My wife had a burrito with carne machaca. That, too, was an amazing meal. One of my favorite parts of here was the amazing bread hat they brought out to us. Yummmmy!!! read more

I recommend the chiles rellenos in Pasteleteria. Went to the one in Malecon Americas, the desserts are very recommended.

The best breakfast in cancun, amazing coffee one of the best I've ever had. Very relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. Be warned; that black habanero hot sauce is very spicy, I'd recommend you dip your fork in it before adding some to your meal. Will deff return for more read more

1 star because of customer service. The waitress that was assigned to our table was TERRIBLE x 100. Her attitude was unwelcoming and everything about her. I came in to buy a cake for my sister's birthday with my family and ended up dining here. We asked her if they celebrate customers birthdays and she asked for my sister's ID or Passport to check her bday. (She is 16. There's no need to carry those items during dinner). We told her we didn't have it and she just left. A couple of minutes later her coworkers brought a small pastry, but she didn't seem pleased. When she brought the bill she ASKED for the tip of 10% and didn't leave the table until we gave it to her. I told her it wasn't a requirement and it's not written on the bill and her justification was the small pastry that was given to my sister. We ended up giving her the tip because we wanted to leave that place ASAP. At the end we didn't even buy a cake. Also, the food is good, not great. read more

Not by the beach and more in town BUT so worth it. Stay clear of the tourist places and ask the locals where to go. This is at the great American mall. If you are from the states it's like Portos. However you get table service. beautiful desserts and they have Mocjeta filled with meats, chorizo and Mexican cheese which is to die for. Go here before you hit the other places like Carlos and Charlies. read more
