The staff were so kind, and I was amazed to see most dishes priced in the $10~$ 11 range. You just don’t find prices like this these days, especially with the quality here. What a great first visit to this café!

First time at this place! The staff this morning were all so incredibly sweet and kind! I asked for a Spanish/cinnamon latte, which they didnt have on their menu but came out just right, and a guava pastry. She asked if I would like it powdered and I had no idea it was an option so of course I said yes. The pastry came out hot and fresh and most importantly, delicious. Thank you for making what was a rough morning all the better. These women must be protected 🥺

It's always a great visit to the Carmel Cafe - I typically stop in for lunch during the week since it's near my office. The staff is always quick and polite, the food is always spot on, and all within a cute environment to enjoy your meal. (the desserts do not disappoint)
