    Easily the best potatoes I've had for breakfast and the pancakes were amazing as well. Also grabbed a Bloody Mary which came out looking like a shake but was surprisingly good. Next time I'm in Medellin I will for sure come back. Highly recommend

    Honestly after three days being in Madeline, this one was the best breakfast that we had. The staff were supper nice and polite. We ordered egg Benedetto and quiche and both were good. The latte and almond croissant 🥐 were great.

    Service was good and the food was delicious. Avoid the outside tables because there are a lot of peddlers

    I was looking for a cool brunch place for a sunny day and found just that! Loved the tables outside surrounded by plants, though at first it's hard for the waiters to see you. I ordered a nice appetizer of croquettes made of jamón serrano, ended up picking the Caesar salad with grilled cheese and a hibiscus soda-the most delicious one I've ever tasted!

    Great place for breakfast & brunch. Nice environment, located in a very accessible area and it's a nice place to enjoy a great variety of food

    What an absolute delight this place was! I don’t know where to begin, whether I discuss just how fresh the fruits, vegetables and meats were, or it’s lovely location, the amazing hospitality the servers display and the very fair pricing for this complete package. You have to come here when in Medellín and Poblado that’s not even a question. Everything on the menu was absolutely delicious.

    So good! Great tourist-friendly/affordable/semi-fine dining experience! Dijon mustard in mashed potatoes is genius. Pancakes were fluff-city and I loved them. Not a coffee person but the affogato was great. I will definitely be back the next time I find myself in Medellin.

    Absolutely wonderful breakfast/brunch. Nice outside sitting area. Clean bathroom. Friendly staff.

    Great place to have brunch, excellent service and atmosphere. Will definitely come back for more. Steal Tartare was good, and the chicken was on point.

  • 5/5 Maaike K. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a good breakfast! Loved the Eggs Benedict. The service was also great, can really recommend this place

  • 5/5 Ken A. 1 year ago on Google
    This is my go-to breakfast choice in Manila, Poblado. As you can see, today a delicious, well prepared omelet with mozzarella, ham, tomatoes,onions and mushrooms with a warm fresg roll and cafe negro Americano. Friendly fast service and all for around $9 including service. You wont regret coming here. Another day another delicious breakfast! I am adding new pictures.

    Good atmosphere. Good food. Polite service. Nice mix of indoor and outdoor seating. If you prefer quieter, it is recommended to sit outside. Portions can be surprisingly small though. Scrambled eggs or pancakes for example are suitable in size to satisfy a child.

  • 5/5 Giselle L. 1 year ago on Google
    Want to give this 10 stars!! Amazing amazing amazing food, and really nice terrace and friendly staff. I ordered the mussels and tarte tatin and both were fantastic (I feel like I'm in France). My new favorite restaurant in Medellin

  • 3/5 Jason Frederick A. 2 years ago on Google
    It’s a good option in a city with a lack of good breakfast options. The food looks better than it tastes. The ingredients lack flavor or they don’t season properly.

  • 5/5 Megan W. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place! My go to spot for brunch and to sit, drink a coffee and work!

  • 5/5 J F. 2 years ago on Google
    The quantity of food is a bit scarce but the quality makes up for it. Very good Eggs Benedict, and good coffee.

  • 5/5 Daniel H. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good breakfast place. The crew here works hard and do a very good job. Natural juices, delicious basic omelette, and very good bacon 👍

  • 5/5 Hoguer A. 3 years ago on Google
    I love this place. Food is excellent. By far the best breakfast in all of medellin.

  • 3/5 Ibrahim Delgado P. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was good. Service is a bit slow. Around noon the homeless people starts to show up asking for money. Better to grab a table inside.

  • 5/5 Jose G. 3 years ago on Google
    This is my favorite place to have breakfast or brunch. You have to try "Huevos Benedictinos". French toasts are amazing and the service is excellent. Totally recommended. Also I like this location better than the one in Ciudad del río.

  • 5/5 Mayan Around T. 2 years ago on Google
    Service was great and food was fantastic! I was here with a big group of 10 people and the way they managed the chaos was great. I appreciate service when you’re met with a crazy bunch. Definitely loved their energy and smiles. Food was phenomenal! We all went around trying everyone’s dish because they were all good

    My girlfriend and I spent 1 month in Medellin, this was our favourite everyday spot. Really good coffee, breakfast and lunch options. Best eggs Benedict we’ve had, good drinks both alcoholic and non. Service is quick.

  • 5/5 Nacho V. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a good place for have brunch, they have breakfast all day if you're interested. I really like this place, the service could be more faster but is not alarmingly slowly. The Florentine eggs are delicious 🤤 so I recommend you to try it.

😠 We ordered a mixed ceviche and it was very acidic, you couldn't eat it, the presentation was terrible in a plastic cup. We paid 28,900 each and it was just onion, a small fish bite and 3 shrimp.
