I'm very used to the laid back serving approach here in Mexico, but alas I wasn't greeted warmly or even asked if I'd like to place an order. No big deal! i went to the front and ordered, and was then provided with a delicious salmon benedict, latte, sweetbread and delicious fresh-squeezed orange juice. All in all, the food was fabulous, but the service and feeling as I was being tolerated, not welcomed served soured my trip to this cafe. I'm unlikely to return, but i'm sure you'd be welcomed if you fit a certain aesthetic!

I was so happy to find this lovely cafe in the middle of a beautiful park in Playa del Carmen…read moreduring my vacation there. It's similar to the other location (La Ceiba de la 30) although it's not crowded and there is plenty of easy parking. My Spanish is not too great, although there was always a cafe employee who spoke English if I needed to fall back on that. To find the cafe, enter the park gate at the corner of Calle 1 Sur and 60 Avenida Sur. Walk about 50 feet on the path to the left and you will see a sign that says Cafeteria. I went three times: for breakfast, lunch and a snack. If I was staying longer in the area I definitely would have gone back again. I loved the fresh tropical fruit salad bowl, (ensalada frutas) served with the option of honey or yogurt, and it was only 50 pesos. Their ice-cold fruit smoothies were only 25 pesos! And their agua del dia was fun, a new combination to try every day for about 15 pesos. For instance, one day it was watermelon and lime, another day hibiscus. The kitchen is open 9 am to 4 pm, except Mondays when they are closed.

If you're in the right mood, you'll have an amazing time. If you're not, everything can quickly feel a little too loud, inflated, and overpriced. The service is actually better than what you'd expect from a place with this much of a clubby atmosphere, which was a pleasant surprise. The whole space nails that Tulum-style laid-back jungle energy while still feeling upscale and very boho-chic. You're definitely paying a premium for the scene, but the scene is also kind of the point even offseason. Come dressed up, come ready to spend, and come in the mood to make a night of it.

The grounds are absolutely beautiful, the water is crystal clear, and the whole place feels like paradise.

And don't even get me started on the mango drink. I'm obsessed. Someone needs to check on me because I think about that drink when I'm at home. You'll even get compliments on your cup, so naturally, I'm out here collecting compliments and cocktails. The food is good enough to keep you fueled up between drinks but let's be honest I'm here for the bartenders, the drinks, and the beautiful water.

A very quaint spot near fifth Avenue. This was about a 10 min walk for us but very easy to find…read more We were greater immediately and sat. The establishment was busy but attention to guests was great. Ordered the waffle with side of sausage. The waffle was perfection. Very light and buttery. The whipped cream was not overly sweet and a perfect compliment. My partner had French toast with bacon. By the silence and how quickly it disappeared I'll say it was also good. The highlight to me was our server. I did not catch her name but her tattoos were beautiful! She was very attentive to us (and others around us). She switched seamlessly from Spanish to English, which was helpful for me. I had my translator out to help with my broken Spanish but it was not needed . Beautiful breakfast and the walk back afterward was rough since we were stuffed. It did help in digestion though We paired

I was surprised that I couldn't just got hot black coffee, so I ordered a latte, wasn't disappointed! They even designed a heart at the top! We shared an almond croissant and they gave out passionfruit yogurt with a crunchy topping - these two things were my favorite of the meal. We are even talking about going back tomorrow just to get these two things! We also shared the Luca sandwich - this was delicious!! The sandwich has ham, cream cheese, mushrooms, and truffle oil, and topped with an egg. So delicious! There was a salad on the side that had some type of vinaigrette on it. The only complaint was that the vinaigrette was soaked up in the bottom piece of bread which made those bites a little busy when all in one bite. If I ever get a chance to order this again, I'd ask for the dressing on the side. We also got the chicken and waffles. This is the only thing we were disappointed with, not disappointed enough to mark the rest of the experience down though. The chicken was pretty good, but some bites were really salty. The waffle was so dry, even with adding the syrup, it didn't help with the waffle much. Overall, we loved this place! So glad we got to eat here! And the service was wonderful throughout the whole meal!
