About
A small coffee shop with a genuine draw: a beach view and surf-lesson watching while you sip. The coffee itself — cold brew, lattes — gets steady nods, and there's an almond-chocolate croissant worth a stop. Set expectations elsewhere: reviewers flag a short menu, high prices, and inconsistent service. Come for the view and a good coffee rather than a full breakfast.

My experience was kinda weird. As a person who relays a lot on google reviews I couldn’t find this place but since I’ve walked so many times in front of it I’d to give it a try. The coffee shop is really cozy with this amazing view to the beach. The prices are similar to most places in Tamarindo, so be prepared to pay $4,5 for a cold brew americano. To drink I got a regular cold brew and an almond croissant with chocolate which was really good. The only bad thing about this places is the small variety of it’s menu. Although the size of the place wouldn’t really allow them to offer more options. All the other reviews, which are really old, recommended the banana bread but it seems to me that the shop got renovated or changed owner cuz when I asked for it they had no idea what I was talking about. To sum up, I liked this coffee shop and I do recommend you to give it a go. Everything was good but nothing astonishing for me to rate it a 5 star.
Rude, dismissive staff. Cold food. Ridiculous prices and they will overcharge you if you’re not local. The coffee is not bad, and the views good.
Has a very relaxing breakfast watching the surf lessons.
