Friend's Café — Restaurant in Mayagüez

Where to begin. It was late at night, I saw a cute little coffee stand, and after enjoying several days in Puerto Rico I thought this would be an excellent experience. How wrong I was.

Let's make this short. They didn't accept cash, first they claimed that their credit card machine was broken and then the employee had the audacity to try to explain to me what a credit card fee was and that it was hurting the business. Wait a minute. Is it actually broken or is your boss telling you to lie??

I had to pay with Paypal. Ugh.

Next, my drink was wrong. I ordered a black coffee with ice, got a latte.

And then the pastries. Skip. For the love of God, skip them. They're dry, weak, and taste stale.

Such a disappointment.

A better coffee shop...

Nice spot to relax in the shaded patio sets & watch the people go by. My amaretto infused latte and JT's mango smoothie were tasty & refreshing. Short drive from Rincon, located in the historic & grand Plaza Dr Colon. Good for a sidetrip. University of Puerto Rico, Zoo grounds and botanical gardens nearby. Parking is tight, so definitely go for the reasonable parking lot on Calle Antonio to save time. Watch out when driving-all traffic lights are inoperative, lots of hair-raising intersections to negotiate, but friendly cooperation is the...

The service is extra slow ,for just a cup of coffee or any drink .once you get your coffee it's to cold and taste like tar. Need better service and barista. If I can give then negative stars I would. Price are not that great as well. The amount you pay ,is better to buy it yourself and make it your self.
