Came to this random truck stop cafe. I came for the coffee but stayed for the treats. They really get into the holiday spirit as well. I had the key lime pie and shared the cinnamon role. I came here another time and got the torta de camote. I highly recommend the torta de camote. This is off the beaten path but is truly a gem of playas.

Excelente spot de café que no te imaginas se encuentra en la entrada de playas. En serio no te imaginas que esta gasolinera tiene un spot bello con café delicioso. Me enamoré de mi latte frío.

For a restaurant in a gas station the food is really good! I recomend the hayaca, and the montubio for breakfast . The lattes are soooo good. To end my review the sandwiches are good for lunch, the best is the price. Very good in cleanness and atmosphere. Despite only having 2 staff at breakfast time the service was not so delayed. Definitely recommend to come and eat if you are in the Playas area in Ecuador.
