Café Boxha at El Parián de la Mejorada — Restaurant in Mérida

This is by far my favorite cafe in Merida. I'm a coffee junkie, and since my visit to Merida last week, I've tried at least 7-10 different cafes in the area. I brushed up on the best reviewed cafes, and Café Boxha popped up, so I had to put it to the test and dragged my mother and sister-in-law with me.

We couldn't have had a better experience. Rob, the owner was amazing. Super personable, spoke English, and all around just a super pleasant guy. I got the caramel frappe, and as an added bonus he puts a wafer in your drink if you'd like, and it was delicious. Drink wasn't too sweet, but just sweet enough.

We then sat outside in the back patio area which was BEAUTIFUL. Almost felt like a cool hole-in-the-wall resort. The pool and fountain was so soothing, and the covered patio with the ceiling fan was a nice escape from the blistering heat. My mother-in-law told Rob it was her favorite spot in the city so far, and she's not easily impressed.

Rob chatted with us for a bit, and it was so enjoyable hearing his story, background, and how he concocted his cafe in Merida. He also let me try a complimentary cup of his dark roasted coffee, which was one of the best I've had. Not bitter AT ALL.

I was so impressed with Rob and his establishment that I had to write a review. I highly recommend visiting while you're in Merida, whether you're a tourist like me or a resident. It was such a delightful experience and I can't wait to...

Thank you for tasty cups of coffee and talking. It was pleasure to met you. Hope to...
