This place is – and I mean this, with my whole heart, mind and being – is the best business I have ever walked into.
We were walking back to our little $30 a night hotel (Santa Maria, also recommend) from the Museo Regional de Anthropología, and I am grateful to the universe for the whim of walking down this street. I'm an artist hailing from Toronto, and I've never felt so overwhelmingly in awe and excited by a work space! We were immediately met by Karina (I hope that's right) and she was the first charm of countless. Top notch service and coffee. Then as we entered the space to find seating it was a technicolour (yet very refined) wonderland. Beyond the world class artistry; Every corner was thought out. There were tables for analog art with individual lamps, and the cutest pink cutting mats to preserve the tables and to make your own collages with (including FREE materials which I hope continues to be sustainable because it's a wonderful idea). Corners for laptops that matched perfectly but were less busy when you lifted your eyes from your macbook, if that's what you were there for that day. The courtyard...the stage!! I can only imagine the intimate evening events.
In the back was the artists' (and I presume owners') workshop. One of them sweetly offered to turn on the little table lamp for my partner, who was reading his book. I wanted to tell her how much I loved everything about everything to do with the place but it would have just come out in tears honestly. Luckily I was in the back courtyard when this happened and her studio door was cracked open. It was just as magical in there.
I have been to Merida twice now for a total time of maybe a month. Three times if you count coming back here after Tulum, on this very trip. Now that I've found this incredibly special place, I will be returning with every chance to support this once in a lifetime magical place, and I will be bringing all the creative people in my life so they may see it.
In other words, YES, I would recommend this cafe. A thousand times yes.
Este lugar es (y lo digo en serio, con todo mi corazón, mi mente y mi ser) el mejor negocio en el que he entrado.
Caminábamos de regreso a nuestro pequeño hotel de $30 la noche (Santa María, también lo recomiendo) del Museo Regional de Antropología, y agradezco al universo el capricho de caminar por esta calle. Soy un artista oriundo de Toronto y nunca me había sentido tan asombrado y entusiasmado por un espacio de trabajo. Inmediatamente nos recibió Karina y ella fue el primer encanto de innumerables. Servicio y café de primer nivel. Luego, cuando entramos al espacio para encontrar asientos, era un país de las maravillas en tecnicolor (aunque muy refinado). Más allá del arte de clase mundial; Cada rincón fue pensado. Había mesas para arte analógico con lámparas individuales y los tapetes de corte rosas más lindos para preservar las mesas y hacer tus propios collages (incluidos materiales GRATIS que espero que sigan siendo sustentables porque es una idea maravillosa). Esquinas para portátiles que combinaban perfectamente pero que estaban menos ocupadas cuando levantabas la vista de tu macbook, si para eso estabas allí ese día. El patio...el escenario!! Sólo puedo imaginar los eventos íntimos de la velada.
En la parte de atrás estaba el taller de los artistas (y supongo que de los propietarios). Una de ellas se ofreció dulcemente a encender la lampara de mesa para mi pareja, que estaba leyendo su libro. Quería decirle cuánto amaba todo lo relacionado con el lugar, pero honestamente habría salido entre lágrimas. Afortunadamente, yo estaba en el patio trasero cuando esto sucedió y la puerta de su estudio estaba entreabierta. Era igual de mágico allí dentro.
Ahora que encontré este lugar increíblemente especial, regresaré con todas las posibilidades para apoyar este lugar mágico único en la vida, y traeré a todas las personas creativas en mi vida para que...
Read moreI love this quiet place - great coffee, great team and a wonderful atmosphere. I relaxed there during doing handicrafts there. The decoration at the coffee-place is very colourful, inspiring and special. The team is very friendly and open for a chat. If you want to let your thoughts come and go, be creative and drink good coffee, tea or chocolate (I tried a lot) you are absolutely right there. If you wanna sit outside, there is also a small garden. The world needs more...
Read moreIf you're looking for great coffee (with oat milk too!) and a super friendly service, this is the place to be. I stumbled upon this café by chance, and it was such a great find. The girls working here are so kind and welcoming, and even if you don’t speak Spanish, it’s no problem at all. I especially love the idea of doing collage workshops – if I had more time, I definitely would have given it a try. A truly charming spot that I highly...
