Very friendly people, delicious coffee and smoothie bowls, and nice atmosphere! We loved this place. They were so sweet to us tourists, which we really appreciated. Plus they have a collection of used books you can swap there, which was perfect for us since my husband was out of vacation reading material and was so excited to get a new book. Definitely recommend this place!
We stopped in at this delightful spot after and a lovely walk. It was a very hot day and we saw the menu with interesting and unique cold brew tea options which piqued our interest. I ordered the hibiscus brew and my boyfriend had the passion fruit jasmine. We sat upstairs on the very pretty verandah. It felt like we were in a tree house. The drinks were so refreshing and flavourful. The service was super friendly. Highly recommend this cute place in Placencia village.
We just popped in for an iced tea and really enjoyed it. Try the passion-fruit jasmine ... It's subtle yet delicious.

We enjoyed a banana and pineapple smoothie after a morning stroll. We sat outside and soaked in the neighborhood. Service was friendly. Highly recommend.
Bathrooms are locked (get a key from the staff). Just a toilet in a small room, sink outside, clean enough. Bloody Mary is fantastic!

Come See SKIP! Definitely a bucket list, MUST stop! Owner and staff are awesome. FRESHEST Food and drink ingredients.
Great spot for breakfast. Food was delicious and the smoothies were great. Specifically the peanut butter seaweed smoothie (no seaweed taste). Service was great and the waitresses were smiling all day and creating good vibes. Only downside was that they snuck a $1 to-go charge which was kind of petty. Other than that a good spot.

This is a great place to have a very special "shake". I put that in quotes because they call them seaweed shakes but I couldn't taste any seaweed, just an amazingly smooth milkshake with beautifully intense flavors (I've tried three of them!). And a nice place to sit down and enjoy it.
I visited this place yesterday, and was blown away by how helpful and friendly the staff was.

Limited menu, mainly drinks and healthy bowls that are vegetarian friendly.

The chocolate protein bowl was made on the spot from scratch with super fresh ingredients, HUGE serving, and absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend it.

Tried the seaweed
Classic- vanilla, coconut, condensed milk, nutmeg & seaweed. You would not even notice there was seaweed inside cause they make it into jello type to add. Condensed milk ( forgot to ask if it was coconut condensed milk or cow’s condensed milk) was added for the sweetness, if you like it less sweeter ask them to cut it down.
Cool place in Placencia to have coffee and desserts or breakfast. Space was modern and well decorated. Loved cappuccino and banana bread.
We stopped by later in the evening and some people came in their golf carts and had ice cream.
Quality coffee and baked goods! Highly recommend this place.
Wanna know what this place is like? 14 days ago, I stopped to get coffee on the morning we left for 12 days on a bareboat charter. The coffee was great, the place is super cute and the barista had a big smile and asked me what I was doing that day. I told her. This morning, nearly two weeks later, I went back in to get my final cup of coffee in Belize. When I walked in, she asked me how my boat trip was….. after two weeks and only seeing me once. My hotel had coffee, but there was no way I was missing out on Beaches and Cream.
The Golden Godess is my cup of choice. So excellent! But the place is just as delectable. Don’t miss it!
We tried The Shak for breakfast, opting to sit at the outdoor tables in the sand. The restaurant is right next to the pier and harbor. The fresh guava juice was flavorful. We had The Works with scrambled eggs, bacon, beans, and fry jacks. The food was good, but lacked the flavor that we’ve had at other places. We needed to add salt and pepper, and that’s not common for us in Belize. The menu we found online was not accurate, so I’m including a photo of the breakfast menu here. The staff was friendly, but did not check on us after delivering the food, and they only offered jam for our fry jacks as we were paying the bill. Free parking is available in the lot by the pier.
The Shak is amazing. It's right at the end of the Peninsula so you see the ocean, some wildlife, a couple of beach dogs and a staff that cares about you having a pleasurable time.
The Lobster Omelette is amazing! The drinks are well priced and wonderful. We were in Placencia for five days and ate here at least four times. Wonderful place!
Love the coconut 🥥 coffee it was just perfect. Didn’t have any food. It have a tropical vibes.
Luxury coffee shop conveniently located near the Placencia Beach Club. Perfect atmosphere to chill while reading a book or hanging with friends. They serve coffee, wine, baked goods, quiche, and ice cream. They also have a kids play area in the patio. Loved the local chocolate from Belize. 🇧🇿
Tasty ice cream, friendly staff, lots of different types of seating indoors and on two patios, close to the Placencia town sign
The people here are amazing
They have amazing handcrafted drinks made from scratch each order. Super friendly and great atmosphere.

This place was great. We have been on a Seaweed Shake tour of the town and trying them all so far this was the best. We have a few others to go try, but will come back here for sure. Friendly staff, great atmosphere.

It was cool getting to watch them roast their coffee beans while we had our shake.
Great coffee and muffins! Good spot to hangout and even work if you need to. Friendly service with free wifi

Was not sure about gluten free options for food. But we got a Seaweed Smoothie. It was amazing. Service was minimal. They took our order dropped off our food and eventually after waiting came back to bring us our bill.

Digital payment options, lovely location tucked into a miniature jungle and only thirty meters from the sea! Its quiet here, unlike some of the other cafés on the peninsula, and no road dust or car noise.

The service was friendly and informative. The drinks were exactly as described using fresh ingredients like pineapples and bananas. Roasting the coffee on the veranda and then grinding it for a fresh and tasty flavor.
Worth multiple visits. The seaweed shakes were delicious.
Really amazing smoothies!! I got the yoga blend, my hubby got the going bananas(10/10 recommend) and a chicken quesadilla (do not recommend). There are some “small” charges- you don’t really see on the menu (any changes or substitutions or add on $1- and any to gos are $1 extra as well) also lots of kids running around and playing where you eat (I’m not really a kid person so If you aren’t either just a heads up, they weren’t bad just a lot of them)

But they made fresh and are really delicious. I would not order the food, ours was not very good. I would recommend Carmen’s for breakfast instead!
Friendly staff, delicious coffee, great vibes.
Loved this spot. Incredible coffee and tea. The crew working was super kind and grateful for our visit.
Suddenly, as if out of nowhere, there is this beautiful, chic coffee shop. The coffee was quite good, too.
The highlight of the visit, however, was the delectable selection of pastries and treats on display. I couldn't resist indulging in a freshly baked blueberry muffin, which paired perfectly with my coffee. The combination of the warm beverage and the delightful pastry was a true taste sensation. My visit to this cute coffee shop was an absolute delight. It's the perfect spot for a relaxing morning, a catch-up session with friends, or a solo getaway with a good book.
A very clean, modern, and comfortable place to wind down with a friend. Although I'm not a coffee drinker, I like the hot chocolate, and there is great baked goods from Angel Delights. The ice cream is so good and there is a great variety. Get a quiche!!
Very cute local coffee shop. They have homemade syrup flavors and the owner is very nice as well! Gave us recommendations to eat and drink for our stay. Highly recommend!
Amazing!!! It's such a great place in Placencia. Great options of coffee, the staff is super friendly, the place is very comfortable, nice music and area to relax. Fantastic, I do recommend it 👌
Great drinks. My teen couldn't get enough of them. Right in the heart of Placencia Village. Love the layout, views inside, from the front & back.
Radiant people inside out!
Loveable family & business.

I visited this place twice before, the previous times were OK but I was really disappointed this time. First of all, the food was not very good and it was pricey. It was actually more than Wendy's, which is a better establishment, in my opinion. What this place has over Wendy's is it is by the ocean, so the view is pretty good. Our portions were quite small. I ordered a pancake breakfast, and my pancakes were just a little bit bigger than silver dollar pancakes . My sausage tasted like it was freezer burned. That wasn't the worst part. One member of my party has a phobia of dogs, The owner had a dog that was free to roam throughout the establishment. This is okay for most, and I like animals. However, you have to be aware that there are people with phobias and also allergies I told the waitress that the young lady in my party had a fear of dogs, and she stated it was the owner's dog. We asked them if they would do something about the dog, and they chased the dog off twice, but the dog kept coming in. The young lady could not enjoy her breakfast and had to leave eventually. I think the owner needs to be a little more sensitive to the patrons.
needs and desires. It was a little dog. However, when you have a phobia size, it does not matter.
They were super friendly, had great coffee, and had a cute porch to eat on and look out over the main road. Would recommend the cinnamon raisin bagel with local mango jam!
Best carrot cake ever!! Good coffees, teas, ice teas, juices.. all homemade. The staff is so friendly. We really like this place. It's perfect to start your day :-)
Love this place! I came here every day during my trip to Placencia. The family who makes the coffee is wonderful and the space is very cute. Coffee is delicious. They have WiFi and seating areas on a balcony and back porch. They also have a few souvenirs for sale.
Grabbed a pumpkin spice latte and a bagel with cream cheese from here and was very happy with my items. The pumpkin spice latte was really good because it wasn't overly sweet. The barista even came up to me to make sure it was done to my liking, such a sweetheart!

There is also a really nice covered balcony that you can sit in and people watch while you enjoy your drinks and food. The WiFi here is super fast, faster than the resort we are staying at (go figure). If I lived in Placencia I would come here every morning!
A gorgeous space to enjoy a coffee drink. I'd come here more if the staff was friendlier. I find them much more accommodating at Above Grounds Coffee & Chillpoint.
It was a cute coffee shop! Smoothie we got were amazing and fresh. Coffee was good but preferred the locally owned Coffee ones elsewhere.
