Coffee Peñita de Occidente — Restaurant in Compostela

While staying in La Penita de Jaltemba, we purchased whole bean coffee here. They have medium and dark roasts that are roasted on the premises, sold in both media kilo and one kilo foil bags. They sell ground beans as well. The coffee is very reasonably priced and seems fresh and local. We enjoy it though it doesn't compare to the coffee we drank in Costa Rica. We haven't eaten or drunk anything in the restaurant and the times I have been there, the place was...

My wife smelled their roasting as we drove by returning to Chacala from La Piñeta. The u-turn and drive back was well worth it. We got the dark roast, had it ground really fine, and it was way better and quite a bit cheaper than the "gourmet" coffee from the supermarket. Of course it really helps that the beans had just been roasted. We finally have a goto place for coffee...

I've been looking for a good dark-roast coffee for years and finally found it 3 ½ hours from Guadalajara. I will be ordering from them from now on; there is no reason to keep searching because I have finally found The Best. They ship to Guadalajara for $200, but I order 8 kilos for myself and friends, so that just adds 25 pesos to each kilo....
