Café Calidá offers a pleasant experience from the moment one walks in. The atmosphere is inviting, featuring great attention to detail and a warm vibe. The coffee is amazing, with options like the custom Vanilla Caramel Café con Leche, described as smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. The pastry selection is impressive, with standouts like the Boston cream donut and a recommendation to try the donuts whenever available. The food is next level, with items like the Chorizo + Egg and Lechón empanadas praised for being crispy on the outside and flavorful inside. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, including Anton and the CC team, provide excellent service and create a communal space that feels like a third place for many. With fair prices, Café Calidá is a hidden gem worth visiting. This independent shop proudly highlights Guatemalan coffee growers and ethically sourced beans, blending culture, quality, and care. Whether someone is a local or just passing through, it is a great spot to grab a bite and a drink. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a new favorite coffee spot.
