Art & Coffee — Restaurant in Chetumal

We stopped in at Art & Coffee for a quick lunch before heading to the Mayan Museum, and we’re so glad we did! This charming little café offers more than just great coffee—it’s a creative space that blends artisan goods, warm hospitality, and delicious food.

We were greeted with kind, efficient service right away. The staff made us feel welcome without rushing us, even though we were on a bit of a tight schedule. We ordered a latte, a sandwich, and a milkshake—and all three were excellent. The espresso was rich and smooth, the sandwich was fresh and satisfying, and the milkshake was creamy and perfectly chilled.

What makes this place even more special is the thoughtful mix of offerings. In addition to the café menu, they also sell handmade soaps and locally roasted, artisan coffee beans—perfect for gifts or bringing a taste of your trip back home.

The atmosphere is cozy and artistic, making it a lovely spot to relax or grab something on the go. We’d absolutely return, whether for another light meal, to try more drinks, or just to browse the handmade items.

Highly recommended if you’re...

Rodrigo, his wife and Laura were great. I had my best cup of coffee in my entire week and a half trip from Placentia Belize all the way to Chetumal, Mexico. I had almost no space left in my suitcase but wanted to get some coffee from Rodrigo. He was very courteous and opened up the last bags. He had to make smaller bags for me that would fit into my travel bags. Thank you, Rodrigo. Heading to the airport later that day, I had the taxi stop at Art and Cafe to put a latte in my Contigo to go to the airport and...

A principios de mes, mi esposa y yo tuvimos la necesidad de buscar un espacio para desayunar, buscamos alrededor del Mercado Municipal de Chetumal y ya al final, antes de partir al aeropuerto de la ciudad, afortunadamente encontramos este lugar que nos dejó una experiencia única e inolvidable, pedí unos chilaquiles con pollo y un capuccino, al momento de darme mi pedido quedé impresionado por la calidad y presentación del mismo, el sabor, la preparación, lo delicioso que comí y me deleité con lo que me ofrecieron, así como el sabor del propio café, a tal grado que pedí otro. Aunado a los alimentos y bebidas que pedimos, pudimos comprar chocolates de Tabasco, riquísimos para regalar, los cuales son artesanales y a un muy buen precio. Así mismo, ofrecen café de diversos lugares de nuestro país, mismos que son los que se presentan en su amplio y basto menú. En la próxima oportunidad evidentemente este lugar será obligado para comer y recibir una muy buena y sincera sonrisa de las personas que aquí disfrutan día a día su quehacer al atender a aquellos que con mucho gusto acudimos a deleitarnos de, al menos, una taza de café. Por cierto, tuvimos la oportunidad de platicar con un visitante de Argentina, que nos comentó que tiene viviendo por ahí en Chetumal y por su parte nos comentó que es este lugar, para él, el mejor que hay en la ciudad para tomar café, Saludos a...
