Our party of nine arrived in San Juan La Laguna, stopped by the cafe to place our orders and reservation, then returned at noon for a very nice meal and service. We had a variety of dishes, all tasty. I recommend the mushroom quesadilla. The...iced lattes were also nice. The location was perfect, near the dock to catch the launch back to Panajachel.More

Delicious coffee and tacos here! A big plus for accepting credit cards (minimum balance required). It is close to the dock and an excellent spot to relax as it has tons of seating inside.

A fantastic location with great coffee and service. They also seem to have a menu for some substantive food, although we didn't have any. They roast their coffee beans right there on site, so definitely check that out. Also, there is an attached garden where...they are growing coffee beans - you can give yourself a self guided tour if you'd like (as we did) or it looked like they'll walk you around too. Lastly, they have a shop where they sell some great ceramics (coffee mugs, plates, candle holders, vases, etc), all hand painted. Worth checking out - to each his own, but we ended up buying a few things there too (the shawl we bought was locally made, the ceramics made across the lake in San Antonio I think they said)More

Beautiful place where the people behind the counter will chat to you all afternoon. Top notch coffee and chocolate, lots of gringos for a reason!

A great stop right up from the dock in San Juan LL. The coffee is amazing, and their shop has a lot to offer. The staff are delightful as well.

Yummy cappuccino to go with efficient and friendly service! Right up from where the boats dock, so it is very convenient if you want to take one on the boat.

The coffee shop is located when you start to walk up to San Juan la Laguna, if you enter the town by the lake. The atmosphere is pleasant and youthful. It is an ideal place for a gathering with friends. The service is very good,...they all serve you with a smile. There is a great variety of coffees, both cold and hot. You can also buy coffee to prepare at home and must take one of the best coffees in Guatemala, the one from Atitlan. Good prices.More
