💡 Amari’s Tips
- Early risers will appreciate cafés that open before 7:30 a.m., while those seeking a slower start can relax on shaded patios or in quieter side-street cafés.
- Weekends and holidays are busiest near the plaza, so walking a block or two often leads to a more peaceful breakfast experience. Many cafés also offer fresh juices, smoothie bowls, and other wholesome, plant-forward options.
- If you’re planning to work afterward, choose a café with reliable Wi-Fi and comfortable indoor seating. During high season, arriving a little earlier can help you avoid short waits at the most popular spots.
- Not sure which café best matches your schedule or dietary preferences? Just ask — we’re always happy to share local recommendations and help you start the day with a great breakfast.
