Come here only if you’re part of the Botox--beach—babycinno—bourgeoisie, regular people who just want a cup of coffee don’t seem to be welcome welcome here.

Did not love the vibe at Tulum. You walk in and are immediately offered a bottle of water—but not told it will be charged to your bill when there is also a free tap water option.

When I asked for tap water instead, I got a sour response from the waiter who also brought us a chipped glass, not great as we were with a small child.

Staff also kept asking us whether / insisting that “we must surely be hungry and want food”. When that happens once you can chalk it up to the fact that we had a pregnant lady in our group, and yes she will admit she’s hungry all the time. But if you say no multiple times and the staff keeps insisting you order food, well that just gets a bit awkward.

The volunteering of expensive water and forcing of a food order to drive up your bill like that, is just not a good look. Feels a bit desperate, like they’re trying to squeeze you like you’re a money sponge—through food and drink you don’t want and didn’t order.

We get it, it’s been rainy, it’s a rough summer season for “strandtenten” but this is not the way.

Coffees and teas were fine—nothing great but not bad.

The decoration of the places gives off weird and confused neo-colonial vibes, masks from Africa, tattooed faces on the menu from Polynesia. Not sure what the message is they want to send with that—other than we attract a very white bougie crowd.

Two doors over is a lovely down to earth surf club with equally good coffee and a genuine interest in the beach for its scenery instead of its “centjes”. We’ll be going there instead...

We had a reservation but still had to wait 30 minutes at the entrance. During this time, my grandmother, who became tired from standing, politely asked for a chair but was refused. Instead, we were told we would be seated shortly. The staff at the door were rude, and their responses came across as sarcastic. Saying something unpleasant and putting a fake smile on your face is not how a guest should be welcomed at the door.

After finally being seated, we placed our orders but had to wait an additional hour for the food to arrive. When we inquired about the delay, the waiter responded arrogantly, accompanied by a sarcastic smile.

When the food was eventually served, we noticed that two dishes, for which we had specifically requested the exclusion of certain ingredients due to allergies, still contained them. Even after double-checking with the server at the table, we were incorrectly reassured that the ingredients had been left out. Fortunately, we noticed the mistake before the food was consumed. The dishes were sent back to the kitchen, resulting in even more waiting time.

The location is beautiful and the food itself is quite delicious. However, it is unfortunate that the experience was overshadowed by the rude and inattentive behavior...
