#leLANDed in Puerto Rico, I was still adjusting to everything (driving, time zone, etc) but needed…read moreto check-in. This spot was on the way so here was my experience. Pulled up to Vistamar Bakery and immediately got that feeling--this isn't a tourist spot, this is a real neighborhood panadería. You can tell right away it's been part of the community for a long time (they've been serving people for decades), and that energy shows in everything AMBIANCE Parking: Street parking moreover Seating: Casual, no-frills seating. This is more of a grab food, sit, eat, and go kind of place. Room for maybe about 20 people. Vibes: Welcome to Carolina! Not the most flashliest place to be in Puerto Rico but still a nice steady gem (apparently Carolina is the birthplace of Reggaeton. The spot itself is a pretty simple - an old-school Cuban/Puerto Rican bakery vibes where there's photos of food here and there and your sweet smells of coffee and baked goods. You got regulars coming in, quick orders being called out coffee flowing nonstop. Not aesthetic, not curated--just real, everyday life of Puerto Rico FOOD / DRINKS Café con Leche (Recommend) Simple and comforting. Warm, slightly sweet, and exactly what you want from a local bakery coffee--nothing fancy, just done right. There's sugar on the side for you to make the necessary adjustments. Savory Pastry (Recommend) Grabbed a pastry with some beef in it (think along the lines of a ham-and-cheese or meat-filled pastry), and it hit. Flaky on the outside, warm and savory inside--perfect quick bite that pairs well with the coffee. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Straightforward and efficient. Feels like a place where: They know their regulars. I had a bit of a language barrier but they were patient with me. TL;DR OVERALL 4.5 Stars. Good selections, reasonable prices, and a pleasant experience. A true local spot. Not flashy, not trendy--but that's exactly why it works. If you want to experience real everyday Puerto Rican bakery culture, this is it. TIPS * Great place to grab breakfast before heading out

This place bakes their own bread and is dishing out orders as they are input. The cook is working furiously to keep up with the orders while asking the line what they are ordering to get ahead of herself. Wow, multitasking at its best!!! The coffee I originally had come for turned out to be the best coffee I've had in Puerto Rico. I simply ordered a coffee and was given a cafecito (espresso double shot with a bit of steamed milk). I'm not complaining about the "cafecito" I just wasn't expecting it. Amazing coffee, food, service, staff, and quick. I would definitely recommend this mom and pop shop bakery!

The restaurant is spacious with colorful and expressive art all over the walls. You're hearing Latin music in the background there's a large bar in the left corner. The menu is big, there's so much that you would want to try so go with the big party. Your offered three different styles of plant proteins when you order your traditional dish. We had the Pasteles, Mofongo, ALcapurria and Sorullitos. Everything came out hot and fresh. The Mofongo was out of this world. And I make Mofongo. The Alcapurria was delicious of Smith's first time having it. The portions are large enough to share. Or have leftovers. You are so lucky to meet the owner. The super friendly gentleman he gave us the backstory of why he started this restaurant. Changing his diet helped him recover from cancer. And it was about the way he ate. So he wanted to share this opportunity with meat eaters. So the whole goal of his restaurant is vegan food for meat eater so they can see that they are not missing anything. The owner also is a famous DJ. He has a talk show radio. And he's been doing it since the 70s. It was a lovely experience my Bestie found this restaurant for me. Because I'm a vegan/sometimes pescatarian. I don't get to try all the foods. It was such a lovely experience.

It was our last day in Puerto Rico, so right before we had to go to the airport, my friends and I…read moredecided to grab a caffeinated drink. I found this place on Yelp and it looked very pretty; it was perfect for a tranquil start to the day. We called them to inquire about parking and whether this place was open to the public or if it was just for hotel patrons. We parked in the hotel lot and it is open to the public. They did have a person at the counter who could take our order with a menu above their head, but they also had kiosks. I chose the kiosk because it's less pressure; I was allowed to browse the full menu at my pace without feeling the pressure of someone behind me trying to place their order. I was torn between the iced matcha and the iced chai. I went with the iced chai with whipped cream (+$0.50). They ask for your phone number and text you when your order is ready. While we waited, we used the bathroom, which was on their patio area around the corner from the building. On our walk there, we noticed all the plants and greenery they have, both on the wall and around the perimeters of the tables. The bathroom was spacious and clean, but no stalls, just one. I liked that they had seating indoor and outdoor (both regular and high tables) but it was such a good day to not sit outside. The outdoor seating is completely shaded. We sat down at one of the corner areas. After about 10 minutes, our orders were ready. The ice chai was delicious! It had a subtle mocha flavor, with subtle taste of spices, and was very creamy. Halfway through, I needed more ice so I got some from their vending machine. When we went to validate our parking ticket, it came out to about $1.50 which wasn't bad for the hour + we were there.

Review #1,052 Posted on 5.1.26…read more We came here for coffee on Saturday morning April 25th. This spot is located at the bottom of the Residence Inn in Isle Verde. This place is super nice, it reminded my wife & I of Porto's a bit. They've got both indoor & outdoor seating. We ordered their classic coffee with coconut, called the Coqui. Now the place is awesome atmosphere, good drinks, good food, but it took way too long to get our order, amateur hour as far as that goes. It took them 45 minutes to get our coffee & food out, and we're not talking a four course meal chef Ramsey prepared, it was literally 1 breakfast sandwich. We weren't alone either, countless people waiting for a very long time with us, I don't get how it could get you that point to be honest. They had at least 10 workers back there, I could see 10 minutes, even 15, 20 is pushing it, but 45? Coffee & sandwich were good, but nothing special and for sure not worth the irritation that sets in when you're left waiting to that degree. I thought of giving this place higher marks because it's a very nice establishment, clean, lots of places to sit, and nice atmosphere, but they earned this 2 spot they're getting for the experience I had.
