👍👍 Really beautiful and kind of fancy place to eat brunch. They offer several complete dishes, with various flavours and combinations. What we loved the most were the BUNS! They were so soft and crunchy at the same time. Really nice restaurant, thank you! People often mention Antigua, breakfast, good, delicious, toast, recommend,

    Forever one of my favorite places for breakfast in Antigua. They have a simple menu but with really high quality ingredients and great flavor. Service is good and all of them are really nice.

    So delicious and fresh. There is also a small market with food and spices that are difficult to find in Antigua. Very cute cats too.

    I loved this place and went again and again. The coffee is great and the labneh/beetroot toast is the bomb! Service is a bit slow so don’t be in a rush but the women there are lovely.

    I can absolutely recommend the place. Once we found it, we went there 4 days in a row. It’s remarkable how much love they put into your food. We tried almost everything from the menu, and it’s all fantastic. My personal favorit is the Serrano y manchego sandwich.

    Thi place has THE BEST breakfast in Antigua. It is a bit hidden, however it is well worth finding, since the avo toast and the egg bagel are absolutely delicious, the coffee is so good and the garden itself is lovely. So so good, 10/10 would recommend. We ate there 3 seperate times and absolutely loved it

    Nice outdoor dining space with good sized tables. The food was okay

    Had an Avocado toast, I do believe that the bread was way too big for a bite and a little bit too hard. Would recommend to address that part. Breakfast beans are awesome!

    Quite possibly one of my favorite meals of the trip! We had the beetroot hummus toast and the veggie bun. The bun? Absolutely mouthwatering. It was so delicious that i wished we had visited more often! The atmosphere was beautiful, with outdoor seating in a lush, dreamy garden. There were also several cute cats hanging around :) a plus in our book.

    Disappointed with our experience here. The food was good but I’ve never had slower service…. ever… my friend and I are the only people here so its not busy at all. There are 3 women working in the kitchen. We waited 40 minutes for breakfast, then asked for extra bread and its been 15 minutes, we are still waiting… I don’t understand how its possible to be so slow. They were pouring the yuca chips out of a bag and their bread is ready in the freezer as well, so its not even like the wait is because they’re freshly preparing the meals. If you want to sit around for a few hours its a decent place, but if you value your time, would recommend literally anywhere else in Antigua

    Simply amazing. Found it by accident and was so happy about it. Super friendly and amazing food and smoothy. Definitely recommended.

    My family and I always pop by when we’re in Antigua. The food and service are fantastic and the atmosphere is definitely a plus too. Highly recommend!

    Loved this little corner. Not crowded, lovely service, great food and atmosphere. I’ll come back

  • 5/5 Stoic N. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place with an excellent atmosphere, service, craft cocktails. It's one of my favorite places in Antigua, highly recommended.

    Beautiful hidden gem in Antigua. We found it by accident and it was the perfect place to relax and unwind for a while. The drinks are refreshing and the food is delicious.

  • 5/5 Eric H. 1 year ago on Google
    Try the Palomas with Mezcal. Love it.

  • 5/5 Carolyn S. 1 year ago on Google
    Really delicious food served on a cute patio. The lychee Lavander lemonade was outstanding!

  • 5/5 Diego van de K. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice place to visit when you are in Antigua. Great juices and delicious sandwiches

  • 5/5 Audrey 5 years ago on Google
    A perfect breakfast; thickly sliced sourdough toast with beetroot humus, feta cheese, avocado and a fried egg. Best breakfast I have had in the 3 weeks I have been in Antigua.

  • 5/5 Katie F. 4 years ago on Google
    Stumbled across this gem and really enjoyed my hearty avocado toast and the lovely ladies who work here! Open 9-4 for toasts, bowls and smoothies!

  • 3/5 Giani D. 2 years ago on Google
    I'm not sure I understand all the hype. The location / setting is definitely very cool. And I had the biggest cup of (very good) coffee I've ever had. But the breakfasts were overpriced and undergood, the smoothie tasted strange, and my food smelled a bit peculiar. The are at least 6 other places for breakfast I'd easily recommend over this one.

👍👍 A must-see and do in Guatemala. This is not only a restaurant but also a museum and garden. The food is phenomenal. The views from all angles of this large location are amazing. If there is a long wait to eat, don't worry. It takes about an hour to walk the property and enjoy what it has to offer.

👍👍 We love Luna de Miel and have come here three times on three separate visits to Antigua- we live in the capital. My husband has ordered the Chipotle twice, and the Tejana. I’ve had the Creciente, Parisina, and I honestly can’t remember the first one I ordered a couple years ago, but they’ve all been...
