Love this place! Always clean tables! Owners are so nice! And the good is always delicious

And they have sparkling water!

This is a great place. Forget Starbucks - Mecatos has coffee machines and they have real food. I was visiting from Las Vegas and I have to say the Arepas is a good snack / meal and the variety of their pastries are also great. What I also love is being able to sit and work a little before heading into the rest of my day. Carne Asada Arepa- definitely add the avocado and the hot sauce. It needs more picante! Staff is great as well.

Always a little disappointed with this place. The venue is always a bit sloppy, with the dining room tables messy and not whipped down. The food is expensive for what they offer. I ordered the avocado toast coming with an ice coffee. They said it was a dollar up charge. I thought that was strange. My dad ordered the breakfast croissant with a matcha coffee. They also added a dollar charge to the coffee. We asked why and they said the combo only included plain black coffee. The menu says brewed coffee. When the food arrived the avocado toast wasn't toasted, it was avocado on bread. The 12oz coffee came in a 12oz cup filled with ice so was closer to 6oz of coffee which felt like a rip off after I paid the extra dollar for it.

I'm wondering why my part of the country doesn't have a similar Colombian bakery & cafe chain like Mecatos because San Diego certainly has a significant Latin American population that would support a business like this. Not only was this location in Hoffner the closest to where I was staying, but it seemed to be the newest branch. The standalone structure on a corner lot resembled a Panera but with a drive-thru and an outdoor patio behind the building. I arrived during lunch hour and while the parking lot was not full, the inside seating was almost completely occupied. On the wall behind the front of the line, there were ten different combo meals posted that featured an item plus a drink. I nearly chose the Colombian Hot Dog which was a beef frank dressed with cheese, pineapple sauce, garlic sauce, potato chips, mayonnaise, onion sauce, and ketchup. After scanning all of the lovely pastries and desserts that were on display, I reverted to my original mission which was to purchase several baked goods to go. My picks were the following... * Pan Rollo Jamon y Queso * Hawaiian Empanada * Guava Pastry * Sweet Croissant The first item was a bread roll stuffed with ham and cheese then oven baked. It would make a great handheld snack every morning on the way to the office. The deep-fried empanada contained ham, white cheese, and fresh pineapple. The puff pastry was filled with guava jam and topped with powdered sugar. The croissant was like a sticky bun with an emphasis on 'sticky' as the item did not want to slide out of the paper bag in which it was placed. Mecatos has operating hours that span across breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I would return for the pan de queso, empanadas, arepas, and pastels. These were just some of the savory offerings. If I had a regular sweet tooth, then this place would be trouble with its array of sugary calorie busters. I gave a 4.5 star rating for my visit to Mecatos Bakery & Cafe.

Another Mecatos in our general area is a good thing. These places are popping up all over Orlando and they are good. Once their biggest asset is consistency, the food is always good, the selection is amazing and the service so far has been on point. We have been here a handful of times and it has been a good experience so far. When you are far away from home and family, it is good to have a place where you can enjoy some good Colombian food to celebrate your culture.

Can't wait to make this a staple weekend go to! The croissant was so flaky and delicious. The coffee was strong and yummy with four different size options I got a 16oz latte and added vanilla. They have such a vast pastry selection I wanted to try them all! The guava and cheese was delicious and would definitely get again. Everyone was so kind and checked on us outside multiple times and food came out very fast. They are working on a drive through also which is going to be amazing!! Can't wait to go back!

Items they sell.

We were trying this place that just opened in the Belle Isle area. Corner of Hoffner and Orange. The ambiance was very pleasant and friendly. The food my wife and I had was good. Theo Boñukeos and Pan de Bono were our favorites. I wish the eggs had came out a bit sooner but over all we liked it and will be returning. They have a nice seating area in the back side as well.

Ok, sooo, I love this place! Let's start with the location! They took the old bank and transformed it into this fabulous coffee oasis with seating outside, too. The decor is great and both the food and atmosphere are on point. Next, the coffee! Soooo good and the prices are totally reasonable. I was pleasantly surprised. Now, the food! Oh, so tasty, delicious, and fresh! Salad was fresh and full of flavor, the empanada was flavorful and NOT greasy, so thank you for that! And, last, but not least, the pastries...so many pastries! It was so hard to choose. If you're not well versed on Latin food or what to choose, the staff will help you out! Super nice and helpful. Overall, it was an all around enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!

I'm not sure if I just came here on a good day or if they are always consistently good but I am going to find out. This was a great find, out of curiosity I stopped in and ordered breakfast and I was shook. Lol. I was surprised with how fresh and delicious everything was. I hope this place never changes anything they are doing right now and maintains the same quality forever. If so, I will always support this place. Thank you!

Nice clean seating spaces!

The decor is very pretty, we loved the contrast of the pink and black. You can really tell they took time to decorate and put thought into this place.

We also ordered a ham and cheese sandwich and a breakfast croissant. Both came with some chips. Both my son a partner said they were good.

I was searching for a tea shop and discovered this beautiful coffee shop. After further investigation, I was pleasantly surprised to see that they offered an array of Matcha options and even açaí bowls. For these reasons, I had to check it out! When I arrived, I was impressed with how inviting and informative the exterior of the building looked, and the interior decor was even better. The playlist was full of positive and uplifting songs. The walls affirmed you with positive messaging and the seating was warm and welcoming. The service was equally exceptional. Sergio was very helpful and knowledgeable, offering facts about Matcha and his personal recommendations. Finally, the product! What I liked most about the experience was being able to have a classic cup of Matcha that was organic and ceremonial grade. Not to mention that, it was served in a classic paper cup that was not lined with plastic; which is very hard to find most coffee shops. The level of care and attention to detail is what sets this coffee shop apart from the rest. 'Seek First..' Coffee Shop truly offers a safe space for those of us who care about the wellbeing of our mind, bodies and spirits.

Perhaps that explains some of the recent improvements like the super clean accessible restroom. I dined in and had great service.

Just like on my last visit I enjoyed the topping bar where I added lots of basil and there is an assortments of additional ingredients and sauces. I got the impression my bowl this time had a higher ratio of toppings to vermicelli so hence the higher rating. The prices here seem to have held steady so if you are looking for Pho or just tasty Vietnamese food this place is a great option.

The service was okay but understandable as we were just going through the drive-thru so not much service can be expected. I finished placing my order and usually you'd get a confirmation followed by a "please proceed to the next window" but we didn't get one so we sat there for half a minute wondering if we could move up. Regardless, we were there for the food which did come out pretty quick. Once we got home, we put everything together and got to eating. The pho was delicious, no doubt about that. The broth was fragrant and still hot. We enjoyed every bite. Overall, the experience was good but not great and we did get a "drive-thru" specialty pho which was over $27 per bowl and honestly was not worth it for the ribeye steak. This place is definitely worth the try though!

Stopped in here before a city game. Hadn't heard of it really but good ratings on Yelp and also…read morerecommended on another site. So decided to give it a try. Not in what you would say is the greatest location. Just not in the place you'd think a restaurant would be. That's not a negative just found it interesting. We were seated right away and opted for outside dining. You can see a lake across the street but if parking is full it's kinda blocked. But we really liked the vibe there. Laid back. Had some music going. We enjoyed eating out there. All of our meals were excellent. I got the Buffalo chicken sandwich (yum). We also got the mexi-cal bowl and the fajitas. They both were also yummy. We decided for the s'mores as dessert. We figured they'd bring out already made s'mores. But no. They bring you out the chocolate the marshmallows and the graham crackers and you cook it right there at your table with this mini fire thingy. It was good. The only thing I would have changed is that they brought out the chocolate ice cold so it didn't melt too well. But it was good. The star of our experience was our waiter. He was awesome. Very attentive, always keeping our drinks filled and super friendly. Having a great waiter just puts good meals over the top. Wish I would have grabbed his name so I could give him a shout out here. But he was working the outside tables on Saturday Apollo 18. Great job man. Overall, give this place a shot. Unique dishes that satisfies the taste buds. We'll be back.
