Canegue Cafe

Absolutely loved our meals here! I got the salty and my husband got the sweet — the salty was extremely good. The ingredients all paired well together, taste was top notch, and serving size was perfect. My husband said his sweet meal was good (he’s not a foodie so I’d imagine it was actually amazing). & then to our surprise there was a rooftop deck to eat on where we had an ocean view! Service was quick and they took our order right at 1 when they said they were closing which was very nice! Highly recommend! Just know that the menu changes weekly so you’ll have to come to see what they’re cooking up!

My favorite spot to get brunch in El Zonte! Coffee and food are both fantastic and I love the rotating menu, always such a nice surprise! And I really appreciate their clean / quality ingredients (like high quality oils and butter). Oli is an awesome person both in and out of the water -- a great surfer, super friendly and does such a good job running the cafe! A must-visit spot when in El Zonte.

Worth the wait. Delicious and meticulously crafted cuisine in an atmosphere sure to satisfy any surfer or beach goer. Watch the myriad of neighborhood people and pups walk by this fun and interesting street infront of restaurant and behind the restaurant is a very funky and cool looking surfer hostel with several types of accommodations. The rock art on the gateway to the restaurant is unique and well done and almost makes it worth visiting by itself. But it’s not fast food, so not the place to go if in a hurry at all.

Totally loved the Sweet / Salty concept! And both were equally delicious. A hidden gem find when you are in El Zonte. It might be slightly challenging to find, but the food is well worth it. They open early and close around 1pm. Head to their terrace for ocean views while brunching. 10/10 recommend giving this spot a try!

THE brunch spot!!! Local, different every week, creative, healthy, a party of flavors. And by far the best cappucino / expresso in town!

We love sweet & salty breakfast! Delicious coffee, great ocean views surrounded by trees

Everything is DELICIOUS, epic location, great staff! Best espresso… hands down. Just wow. This place is a gem. Ice coffee with homemade mylk blend & the hibiscus drink are not to be missed. Plates are huge, two options daily a salty and a sweet… both are excellent, surprising and fun. There is nothing basic about this place… the seasonings and special touches make every dish shine. The magic Chef Oliver creates with local ingredients is pure foodie joy. The view and breeze from the upstairs patio is a special bonus!

Canegue Cafe in El Zonte is a must try if you’re in El Salvador, it was one of the highlights of our trip. Not only is this cafe the epitome of surf culture with its laid-back atmosphere and beachfront location, but it also offers some of the most delicious handcrafted drinks I have ever tasted. Soon as we entered the cafe, We were immediately drawn to the cute and quirky decor that perfectly captured the essence of the surf/beach lifestyle. The wood work an s the amazing cactus gave the place an overall charm . But it wasn't just the ambiance that impressed me, the drinks were simply amazing. From their handcrafted horchata latte to their freshly curated juices, each drink was expertly crafted and bursting with flavor. Although I didn't get the chance to try their food, I couldn't help but drool over the plates of food that were being served to other customers. The menu offered a variety of options, and lots of healthy vegan choices. But what truly made my experience at Canegue Cafe unforgettable was the owner. He was the epitome of hospitality, going out of his way to accommodate us even though he had a private group at the time. He took the time to make us some amazing drinks so we would be able to try them. His passion for his business was evident in every aspect of the cafe, making us feel like we were a part of the Canegue family. Overall, I highly recommend visiting Canegue Cafe if you're ever in El Zonte. Whether you're a surfer or just looking for a laid-back spot to enjoy some delicious drinks and food, this place is a must-visit. The combination of the surf culture, amazing drinks, and the friendly owner make this cafe a truly unique and special experience that should not be missed. I will definitely be returning on my next trip to El Zonte.
