Caleta Dolsa Coffee — Restaurant in Lima Metropolitan Area

I've been familiar with this cafe since they first opened in Barranco. And, frankly, it's just... alright. Nothing to write home about, especially considering their rather steep prices for what you get. The coffee's decent enough, but their so-called 'best sellers', the smoothie bowls, are a bit of a letdown. And I've tried plenty of them, believe me, to come to this conclusion. They certainly look the part – beautifully creamy – but they're overwhelmingly banana-flavoured. You get a mere whisper of the other ingredients they advertise. So, yes, it's fine, and if you're after Instagram-worthy snaps, you'll get them. But for genuine flavour and value?...

Really a beautiful little spot with excellent attention to detail and presentation. The restaurant it self if stunning, they even decorated the bathroom to match! Service was decent, a little distant, but the food and coffee was great! We went on a Sunday morning and it was pretty busy, we were sat at the bar which was comfortable for two. Someone brought their dog though who barked loudly a few times and another party brought their loud kids. Not ideal for a chill Sunday...

A nice atmosphere. It's visually appealing, but the coffee was very bland. I had a stumpy, and it was a very boring coffee. No interesting flavour. Also, not quite warm enough (they need to warm the glass/cup before making the coffee). The Babka was nice, but I go to specialty coffee shops...
