We had a great experience at Cape Fruit. The people are very nice, and friendly. The food was good. The vibe here is amazing, very, surf beach town feeling, with fresh fruits and smoothies as well as breakfast and brunch options. Definitely recommend.

Cape Fruit is a cafe restaurant serves fresh breakfast and brunch, we liked it. I had the breakfast with salmon and it was tasty. Pancakes are very generous. Friendly staff! Recommend it!

Es un sitio muy agradable situado en una calle muy céntrica y transitada que ofrecen variedad de platos saludables. También hay una larga carta de zumos. Todo muy rico. El unico inconveniente es que tardan mucho en servirte. No es muy grande. Todo muy rico.

Cape Fruit is by far one of the best restaurants on the island ❤️ They serve delightful breakfasts, brunches and lunches, all freshly prepared. Many options are vegan-friendly, or can be made vegan-friendly. I really can’t get enough of the salmon wrap and the blondy pancakes 🤤 I’ll definitely be back, and you absolutely can’t skip this place if you’re around Santa Maria - it’s a must!

Discover a cozy gem in Santa Maria, Cape Verde, offering a luxurious atmosphere and attentive service. The restaurant delights with healthy, comforting food and a friendly staff, perfect for relaxing after activities like surfing or kiting. It's especially accommodating for vegetarians and those with dietary restrictions. Highly recommended for its Cuban vibe and great options for breakfast and lunch. A must-visit favorite!

Eigentlich ganz gemütliches, nettes Café im Schatten. Man kann sich mit einem gekühlten frischgepressten Saft, Smoothie, Limonade sehr gut erfrischen. Auch die leichte Speisen wie Pancakes, Salate, Wraps sind sehr gut für die heiße Temperatur geeignet. Allerdings, Allergiker aufgepasst! Wir bestellten Salat mit Mandeln, bekamen aber mit Erdnüsse. Personal hat leider unsere Reklamation nicht ernst genommen und sogar in der Küche darüber gelacht.

Local para hacer un desayuno completo. Variedad de desayunos para elegir, lo único que a precio algo más elevado, casi europeo Lugar agradable. Servicio bastante lento

Impossível não dar 5 estrelas a este lugar. Prima pela qualidade e variedade e pela originalidade! O conceito vegetariano e saudável como não tem igual em toda a ilha do sal! Abre cedo e dispõe de cerca de 20 lugares sentados, não faz jantares! A opção de escolha é realmente muito vasta, e podes ir lá todos os dias durante uma semana e nunca repetir o mesmo menu/prato! Aconselho os batidos, e a desfrutar da sombra do espaço e da companhia dos gatos! Todo o staff parece uma única família q está ali a trabalhar pra proporcionar um ambiente calmo e relaxado a todo o " turista" q ali vai!

The food and juices are excellent. Great vegetarian selection. I quite like the atmosphere, but it can be a bit crampy for the claustrophobic

Fresh food, Smoothies, Ginger Shots. Good coffee, very frequentated, not too much space.

Went for breakfast and we have fruit pancake and smoothie, it was fantastic get loads for your money. The service was good didn't take to long to get our food

Very expensive, they have local and mostly other food. We ate local food that was a lot less good than in other places at at least 2x the price. Service was very slow... Should have known before going in since there are only tourists there....

Cool place for brunch or for drinks.

We‘ve been 6 times in Cape Fruit for breakfast and it was amazing: - best espresso we had on all the cap verde islands - fruit salad: fresh cutted fruits, no sauce. Just delicious ( take the small one, you get enough) - crepes with banana and chocolate sauce. Fantastic, but it is not small - toast with avocado and salmn - croissants - chia yoghurt with fruits. Delicious … we tried closed to everything … if all tables are used they take care and organize a place beside someone. … it takes time till you get it. But be assured: it‘s worth it!

Went in for breakfast twice. Food is very nice and price is correct, but service is way too slow - expect 30-40 minutes wait to have breakfast or any kind of food. Chia pudding is amazing and the fruit pancake is also very nice. If you try the breakfast menu, you can have coffee, orange juice, yoghurt with fruit and a big plate for 7-8 EUR. But go there with a lot of patience and above all time.

I ordered a banana-goat cheese sandwich and got this unkempt dry white sandwich with less than half a banana the goat cheese I had to look for! Lots of cinnamon so it still tastes like something, and one pays €4 for this!!! The service is without Cape Verdean smile! The employees do not seem motivated. Too bad, could have been a nice atmosphere.

Very nice place for breakfast and / or a brunch, offering eggs, oat meal, fruits and sandwiches. The avocado salmon toast is a must try together with scrambled eggs and an espresso. Perfect start in the day, also in view of the rest of the options around here…

Cash only restaurant Lots of flies on site as its a little more rural. I had the avocado toast and salmon sandwich. The avocado toast came with yoghurt topped with fresh fruit and juice. Juice and yoghurts were very good. Toast was very gentrificated and a smaller portion. I didn't eat the tomato as I try to avoid fruits that require washing in counties were the water isn't recommend. Salmon sandwich was good. Overall 3/5 as the food was average

Plek is altijd vol. Komt omdat iedereen wacht op service. Na een uur wachten hadden we bestelde koffie nog niet. Denk dat ontbijt na nog een uur zou komen gezien de service maar we hadden geen tijd meer....

Miejsce z dużym potencjałem ale przydałby się trening dla personelu tak aby obsługa nabrała tempa. Bardzo dobra kawa. Ciasto...niestety nie najwyższych lotów. Pyszne jabłka przykryte zbitą kulą czegoś ci miało być kruszonka.

Man muss lange warten bis man bedient wird und noch länger bis das bestellte Essen kommt.

Smoothies were OK, nothing to be excited about. We ordered a croissant with chocolate and a pancake with chocolate and banana. Probably the worst pastry we have ever paid for mostly because of the horrible chocolate and the dough tasting a bit like meat. On top of that it was the first time in Capo Verde we had to wait for over an hour for our food. Overhyped place and we wont come back.

My favourite spot in the island

Un desayuno súper completo a un precio muy adecuado. Incluye zumo, yogur con frutas, café y la opción que elijas, en mi caso tres tostas de aguacate con tomate, deliciosas. Tienen una gran carta con opciones tanto dulces como saladas. Lo descubrimos el último día, si no hubiéramos desayunado allí todos los días.

Well, we didn’t wait long for food :) indeed the service needs some better attitude, but in general it’s what you get on the island. The ambience is really nice. All in all, take your chance

AMAZING staff, good is delicious. I come here a lot. Their juices are super fresh (not packed out if plastic but freshly made” They always try to help you the vest they can. Their coffee is truly AMAZING quality. I truly love to come here.

Rento tunnelma ja viihtyisä pikkuravintola. Koiralle ja kissalle rapsuttelut kelpasi.

Best breakfast in Santa María.

Great heathy eating. Fantastic smoothies, juices and a very pet friendly place. Great place for animal lovers 🐈🐕🐕‍🦺🦮

Alternative, cosy, relaxed, unpretentious. And delicious smoothies!

El sitio es muy agradable, la comida buena, el servicio decente pero el tiempo de espera para que te sirvan la comida, una eternidad. Hemos esperado 1h para que nos sirvieran y la comida, aunque buena, no es en absoluto elaborada.

Cute place for breakfast/brunch. Usually full and people waiting in front. We were lucky to find the seat the second time. It took a bit long time for the orders. With breakfast options fresh juice, fruit yogurt and coffee included (around 7-8€ per person). Wide options of juices, smoothies, pancakes.

Ik heb een smoothie met banaan, aardbei en kokos gehad. Was lekker.

Fantastic breakfast spot! The food was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. A great variety to choose from. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the staff was super friendly. 5/5—highly recommend!

Sehr gutes Essen, Getränke nettes Service, etwas teurer, aber dafür klein und grün bepflanzt. Blick aufs Meer. Leckerer Shake!

Very nice breakfast menu for a reasonable price

Great breakfast! The service is fast and the food is very good. The servers are really nice too! We came as a group of 9 and it was convenient!

Trop trop bon ! On s’est fait un petit déjeuné, tout était excellent. Une des meilleurs adresse à Santa Maria

Kleiner Ort mit süßen Details. Alles frisch zubereitet. Für jeden Geschmack was dabei. Ambiente sehr entspannt. Preise mehr als fair.

Immer sehr lecker und frisch . Waren schon über 10 mal da frühstücken und kommen gerne wieder

Ça c'est de la salade de fruits 🥰 Au moins 10 fruits différents, un régal

Un numero di telefono, che non funziona da parecchio tempo non credo che sia una cosa intelligente, per una attività! Che si definisce take away!!!! Non puoi prenotare, ne ordinare!!! Questo è un nota per Il proprietario. Se vuole capire!!!

Such a lovely place to start your day... I did every day of my stay! Super fresh food and smoothies served in a relaxed, cool 'shack' Great variety of food on offer and the breakfast menu is fab 👌 the staff are sweet and service great.

Ellas pasan desapercibidas pero con una sonrisa la comida genial es algo lento pero compensa

Cuisine végétarienne correct sans plus

Awesome place with a chilled vibe. Great to get out of the sun in the middle of the day and get some good food. Delicious ice cream, pancakes and smoothies. Strongly recommend

Zdecydowanie polecam, smacznie i świeżo, miła obsługa, cenowo również ok

We were at Cape Fruit almost every day during our stay on Sal! The best café on the island for vegan and healthy options. Especially the brunch is a great deal, with a variety of 3 different meals, a delicious fruit juice and a coffee for ~ €16,- The chia seed pudding and banana pancakes especially, with fresh fruits, are highly recommended.

Decepcionante. No está mal pero lo esperábamos mucho mejor después de leer las reseñas y de recomendaciones de varias personas.

My fav place for breakfast and lunch in Santa Maria. I even quit my [paid] hotel breakfast in order to have one in Cape Fruit in lieu :) Beware of very specific timing for different times of meals here though, and the fact that place is almost always packed

Wir waren 2014 bereits hier und fanden es toll. Da war es eine Pflicht, 10 Jahre später nochmal vorbei zu schauen. Wir wurden nicht enttäuscht! We were here in 2014 and loved it. So it was our duty to visit again 10 years later. We were not disappointed!

Sehr zu empfehlen. Leckere, kühle und frisch zubereitete Smoothie‘s und Obstteller. Auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert! Highly recommended. Delicious, cool and freshly prepared smoothies and fruit platters. Definitely worth a visit!

Hier braucht man Zeit, aber das Warten zahlt sich aus. Sehr gesundes Essen, insbesondere die Frühstücksmenüs sind wunderbar mit viel frischem Obst und liebe gemacht. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Idéal pour le petit déjeuner du matin, où nous sommes allés plusieurs jours de suite. Personnel pas très souriant, mais le décor et le côté chaleureux de l'espace sont attirants.

Waren zum Frühstück da. Eigentlich sollten sie um 8 aufmachen, so um 8:30 war es dann so weit. Das Personal war eher unfreundlich. Der Kaffee war gut und das Frühstück ok. Ich hätte gern etwas mehr Flexibilität bei der Auswahl gehabt, aber das schien nicht möglich oder ich wurde nicht richtig verstanden. Also im Ganzen eine eher durchschnittliche Erfahrung.

Very nice place to eat healthy food. Salads were very tasty (we took the one with octopus and one with shrimps). Smoothies and homemade juices are also a must. Highly recommended!

I had super high hopes for this place from the other reviews but honestly it was awful! The staff from the beginning were rude as they were too busy… Took over an hour for food to come, egg and toast was super dry and over cooked The pancakes and fruit were nice enough but definitely not worth the wait

Such a cute place and has a Cuban vibe to it. Highly recommend and we are definitely coming back. This is my favourite restaurant that we've tried. Also, great for vegetarians as they have a really good choice. Good for breakfast and for lunch.

A great spot for breakfast! We were regulars here and have tried everything on the menu. The pancake is a bit different—it’s not quite a traditional pancake, more like a textured blend between a crepe and a pancake, the juices are wonderfully refreshing, and the yogurt is particularly delicious.

Great little spot near the end of town that emphasizes freshly made dishes fro breakfast and lunch. The breakfast special is fantastic: eggs or omelette, fresh fruit bowl/ yogurt, coffee and fresh squeezed juice. Mostly vegetarian which is nice on an island in the middle of nowhere!

Very nice and cosy little restaurant in Sancta Maria, Cape Verde. Comforting, healthy and nurturing food. Really friendly staff. When done with your supping course or your sky-high kite ride, this is the place to be to still your hunger and get some rest. Tasty, friendly, healthy and comforting

Super Ort zum frühstücken, die Pancakes und Smoothies sind sehr empfehlenswert!! Man muss allerdings früh da sein, um einen Platz zu bekommen und etwas Zeit mitbringen ;)

Polecam wszystkim niesamowity klimat i mega dobre wszystko 😊
