Absolutely delicious! The map was taking us in circles to find it, it's just off the main square and so glad we persevered! The nutella coffee was delicious, my partner and I shared a bagel, a baguette and homemade cake. Absolutely delicious!

Set in a quiet little courtyard, it's a nice little café that offers freshly made sandwiches and some coffee and cakes. Nice, fresh food, friendly staff and lovely location. Recommended!

This is one of the more hidden breakfast spots, where you will find mostly local people. We had a rich breakfast and had an overall great experience. The food was tasty and really enjoyed the croissant with Nutella, the Omelette with Serrano and the fresh smoothie. Coffee was great as well

Lovely atmosphere, food and drinks in the shade of the oldest rubber tree in Lanzarote. Hidden away, so keep a look out for it!

A lovely chilled cafe with a great choice of fresh food which is very consistent. Tucked away in a beautiful rustic square. Wonderful service, caters for off menu requests and the best coffee and carrot cake on the island! Would highly recommend.
