Cinnamon roll

The cinnamon roll from here was amazing. I really didn’t like the potato pastry, but I gave it to a street dog who seemed to enjoy it.

Sweet

There are only sweet and protein-less options. So only ok as caffe break not a meal. Caffe is good.

So great!!

Yesterday we went to their shop bear Stella's, today we went to the one in the center of town. Great vegan pastry options and free coffee samples. Highly recommend. We got the vegan cinnamon roll (again) and the vegan strawberry chocolate cake. Both amazing!

Delicious gooey vegan cinnamon rolls and good coffee with vegan milks - perfect for after a hike in the cloud forest!

Great pastries, decent selection

They have a great selection of sweet and savory vegan pastries, however they are often sold out of one or two. Good coffee as well. I recommend the potato empanada and the banana bread in particular.

Super Kaffee, Kuchen und Snacks

Die Zimtschnecken sind sehr mächtig, aber sehr gut! Ich hatte auch ein Stück Bananenkuchen und ein herzhaftes Teilchen mit Gemüse, beides ebenfalls lecker.

Good coffe and pastries

Not many vegan options early in the morning however the pastry was really delicious. Plus they serve a good coffee. Vegan options clearly marked. We also went for the tour on their Coffee farm which was great experience! They have a lovely merch as well.

Great vegan options

We viated here a few times during our stay in Santa Elena. Good coffee & they offer oat, coconut or almond milk. We tried a few of their vegan cakes too and the banana bread was a fav! Upstairs is lovely to sit and look out whilst enjoying a coffee! Would recommend.

Pros: Alternative milk options, Cake!, Location is central

We tried the banana bread, the passion fruit cake and the amaizing cinnamon roll.
Everything was perfect!

Best café

Delicious cinnamon roll but the latte with coconut milk was the best! The atmosphere is great and cozy and the girl that makes the coffee is lovely and fast.
GET THE PASSION FRUIT BREAD! so delicious and moist.

A bit disappointing

The coffee wasn't that good. Cinnamon roll was a bit sweet. In the mocachino and hot chocolate they didn't put chocolate inside (it is just cacao and syrup), so a bit disappointing.

Pros: They did pretty shapes on the coffee 😄

Yess Passion fruit cake

I did not try the coffee but the passion fruit cake (among several clearly marked vegan options) really hit the spot.

Fantastic!

We had the vegan cinnamon roll, potato empanada, and a coconut milk latte. All of it was amazing. Highly recommend the cinnamon roll. Everything is also very well priced- we only paid about 5,000 colones for everything. They have almond and coconut milk, and multiple vegan pastries/snacks.

Pros: Lots of options, Delicious, Well priced

Cons: Somewhat touristy

Delicious!

Had a cinnamon roll and it’s was sooo big and sooo good! Also tried the iced coffee with coconut milk (they also have almond milk). It was really delicious! Quality coffee from their own farm. You can have a free coffee taste and try the different ways of producing the coffee. Also a very cozy place!

Great place

Santa Elena in general has plenty of vegan options but this Café was the first one I wanted to try:) I had a cinnamon roll and a empanada and they were both really good. The cinnamon roll was so huge I was surprised that I good finish it but it was very soft.

Pros: A lot of vegan options, Not expensive, Stuff speaks good English
