Cafe Petit Peche — Restaurant in Playa del Carmen

I feel bad writing this because the service and ambiance were quite nice. The coffee was just an extreme disappointment. Granted, we’re a bit spoiled and coffee snobs, but the cappuccino was just a massive cup of hot milk with a tinge of coffee. I can’t comment on the flavor of the espresso itself because well I couldn’t taste it 😅 It was a 3/10 — the only reason I’m not giving it a 2 is that at least there was a bit of foam on top. It was simply way too much milk. I would have loved to try a pastry but they didn’t have any today. The quinoa bowl was pretty mid. Old tasting quinoa, fruit was cut in way too big of chunks, just poor attention to detail. Was shocked by the price of $350 pesos for just 2 sub-par coffees and a fruit bowl..Small details that could be remedied with smaller cups for cappuccinos and better knife skills on fruit. Again, really nice people and maybe the other breakfast...

Cafe Petit Peche is a fantastic little gem tucked away from the main street in Playa del Carmen. We enjoyed breakfast here both days of our stay, and each time, the food was absolutely amazing.

The Molletes con Huevos, paired with the fresh pico de gallo, was easily my favorite—flavorful, satisfying, and perfectly prepared. Beyond the delicious food, the prices are fair, the atmosphere is cozy, and the staff is incredibly kind and welcoming.

Hands down, this is now my favorite breakfast spot in Playa! From the top-notch food quality to the fantastic service and cozy atmosphere, everything was amazing. I absolutely love how it’s tucked away off the main strip – it feels like a hidden gem. I tried the American breakfast, another breakfast dish with eggs and salsa macha, and the cafe bombito, and each dish was incredible. Best coffee I had in Playa! Seriously, everything was spot on! Can’t wait to come back for another delicious meal....
