I was on my way to a cafe to pick up a pastry for breakfast, but I passed by here and stopped because something smelled good inside. The very nice owner (? perhaps, or maybe it was the manager?) was sitting outside with a regular customer and they both pointed out things on the menu based on what I was in the mood for. I ended up getting a berry smoothie, pancakes with fruit and huevos rancheros (which came with coffee or oj.)
All of it was great! Enough to split between me and my husband for a full brunch. Everything was made fresh. The smoothie was perfect and the pancakes were low key some of the best pancakes I've ever had. Quite fluffy and soft with a bit of crisp on the exterior. They came with butter, syrup and jam packets. The huevos rancheros I got because they were out of chorizo and I was not disappointed. Tasty and a very large portion. I wish I had more time to return before I left Cancun, but I would definitely go back if I were...
Read moreThis restaurant really didn’t look like much but experience tells me that those are typically the best places to eat and this place was not an exception! The food here was really good. The only problem I had was the wait for the food. They pretty muCh brought one plate out at a time with at least 5 mins in between each time. However I feel as though the food was worth the wait!

Read morePros - The food at Ninfa's Cafe was amazing and cheap, a great combination. On to of that, the server we had was always cheery and frequently checked up on us.
cons - The reason why I am rating 2 stars is that they seem to frequently try to add extra cost to your bill. After eating, you go to the back end of the restaurant to pay, where a lady puts the price next to everything you ordered and total it up. Both on our receipt and the one on top of the stack of previous receipts receipts had multiple items with the wrong price! Although our receipt only came out to be 30 pesos more, if both our meal and the last persons meal was totaled incorrectly, I wonder how many others were.
If you go to Ninfa's cafe, just make sure you know the price you should pay before...
