Granier • Calle 2 — Restaurant in Merced

Great selection of food and the coffee is fresh ground beans as well.

The service is excellent as they are very friendly, detailed and very quick too. Just like every bakery in Central America, you go to the counter where all the goodies are and they kindly take your order with a pleasant attitude and pleasant smile. I ordered a Cinnamon sweet roll to go and had a quick bite to eat plus a small Americano coffee.

Enjoyed the view of many people walking by and visiting the Granier restaurant too. While I sat and ate my mini-lunch and sipping my hot, tasty coffee also.

The only downside is the pestering pigeons - which unfortunately cannot be helped - due to the open terrace and closeness to the pigeon roosting areas, I'm assuming. Some of the staff try to shoo them away which is a nice gesture also. I suppose, just wave them away...

No complaints about the croissant. It was simple and tasty.

But in my opinion, you can't call yourself an espresso bar if your espresso is machine made. And it's not like one of those fancy Nespresso machines, either. It was the kind of coffee maker that is typical in a gas station.

There are two other cafes all facing each other. Pick the one that actually makes their coffee drinks by hand. I picked this one because it was the highest rated by Google, but the scores...

Lovely bakery in the heart of the city. Lots of options for pastries, cold and hot coffee and sandwiches. Open street facing entrance and our fellow visitor was a beautiful pigeon! Enjoyed our time here and took some...
