  1. A

    Tree House Restaurant & Café

    Built around a half-century-old higuerón (fig) tree, this hip cafe serves up everything from BLTs to pizza to grilled tenderloin to seafood specials. It’s a lively space to have a bite, linger over wine and occasionally catch live music.

    Café Caburé

    An Argentinean cafe set in the gorgeous Santa Fe–style lodge above the bat cave in Paseo de Stella. It specializes in creative and delicious wraps, tortillas stuffed with chicken mole, chipotle rubbed steak, curried potatoes, or lemon shrimp. The beef empanadas are fabulous, and it has magnificent gourmet truffles too! Seriously, the chocolate is high art.

    Cafe Chunches

    Owned by an American biologist, this bookstore and curio shop has expanded to include a loft cafe with the best breakfasts in town. It has bagels, egg dishes, excellent coffee and smoothies too. There’s also a reliable laundry service, and the bulletin board is a good source of information.
