Adorable cafe centrally located in Chapala, with windows open to the street and some outdoor seating. The menu is expansive and the breakfast is delicious. Try the green juice (naranja verde) and the chilaquiles con huevo (rojo and verde!). Also a great place to work - big tables with outlets nearby.
