Punto Café — Restaurant in Lima Metropolitan Area

I have visited several dozen cafes in Lima, especially those who roast their own coffee beans as I am in coffee roasting business.

I would definitely go back and if u are into specialty coffee this is the place to go. You don't need to go to other cafes where really all the coffee tastes the same, typical burt/bitter or sour...

Good Canelé, chocolate...

Had an unpleasant experience in the beginning as the staff served customers arriving after us first while we were waiting for 20 mins to have our coffee.

However, the owner took actions quickly and turned the situation around by apologising plus offering me a cold coffee brew and dessert. Impressed by her kind and...
