This beautiful restaurant is just off the main plaza, easy to access. There are several small eating areas with gardens and fountains. The ambiance is great. We had the fresh guacamole which came with toast pieces instead of chips. It was very good. The sangria...is delicious. And of course, the local beer, Gallo, the rooster. Highly recommended in the interesting city.More

This is a local coffee shop with a few locations. I stopped here every morning rather than a big named coffee chain The employee was really nice and the coffee was great!.

I like to visit Cafe Condessa on my solo or group bike trips to Antigua. Highly recommend their Sunday brunch. Good value with lots of choice. One of the few places in town that does not subject you to LOUD music, so really appreciate the...peace and silence. A roof top terrace would it even better.More

Excellent place for sandwich/salad type of lunch, right next to Plaza Central. We had a beef sandwich on a fresh roll and a “TLT” (BLT) on fresh~baked multi-grain bread. Both came with a cucumber salad . Very tasty, and fairly priced. The patio settings in...a few separate areas are cool. Be sure to browse the shops within the building as well and be sure to get an ice cream at their small coffee counter. Very pleasant experience, indeed. Can’t fathom why anyone would go to Wendy’s instead,More

Upon comming to the restaurant we were forced to eat the buffet which was not good nor had options to choose from and basic things were missing. Sad as the restaurant has a good menu, but we had no options.More

Lovely for a respite during a day exploring this old town. The mermaid fountain is an echo of the plaza fountain. Cool history you can read about at the start of the menu.

Located right on the square, this small cafe offered a wide selection of "international" options -- something for everyone, but not much that was Guatemalan. Ended up getting a bowl of Guatemalan turkey noodle soup with some great seasoning, plus a beet and goat cheese...salad. Both were good. Not expensive. They offer beer and wine as well as coffee, hot chocolate, fruit juices, etc. Good service, although surprised that our waitress did not speak English given that this is a spot inundated with tourists. The menu was in both English and Spanish, so we did fine. Attractive place with both indoor and outdoor dining tables. A pleasant place to grab a quick lunch before heading out to tourist some more.More

Stumbled upon this place after finding an ATM right in parque central. Cute store in the front and the restaurant had good coffee and drinks. Love the large sangria. Prices were also very reasonable.

A quirky place that includes a gift store, a traditional crafts store, a restaurant with inside and outside seating. It is beautiful with lots of tropical plants and some of the best banana cake I’ve had in a long time.

Located on the west side of the Central Parque of Antigua, every one in my extended family enjoyed the breakfast and lunch dishes they ordered. Portions were “just right”, and the prices very reasonable even before you consider the location. Fruits and vegetables were very...fresh. Menu is in Spanish on one page and English on the next. I can highly recommend this restaurant, as well as Antigua Tours, whose office is in this restaurant.More

Disappointed by the food especially the soap that I couldn't eat because it was heavily salted. I informed management but their testers said it was ok so I was charged.

This is one of my favorite places for breakfast for hueves rancheros and a great garden. The food and service is excellent. I’m not usually around there later in the day, but their deserts look scrumptious in the case.
