Hacienda Muñoz

The ambiance, the elegance, the delight! This served as an amazing experience before returning home from visiting. Not only was this location luxurious, serene, and the greatest comfort to our family before leaving Puerto Rico, but the food and the service were of the utmost class and satisfaction a restaurant can provide. We did have to wait for our food, but this is to be expected from the level of quality that this kitchen delivers. The music was simply tranquil and calming without ever sounding annoying at all! Moreover, I heard a song that I was unable to identify with Shazam, yet our waitress Bri, although experiences may vary, was kind enough to find out the name of the song and the artist whilst tending to the rest of the guests! It needs not be said that I was ecstatic and indelibly content.

My husband and I spent a little extra time in Puerto Rico after our cruise. He really wanted to do a coffee plantation tour while in the area. We rented a car and drove up to this place. We got there a little after noon and their next tour started at 2pm. Side note: the only tour in English is at 10am, just so you know. We were informed that we could join the 2pm tour, but it would be in Spanish. We weren’t going to have time to come back before our flight the next morning so we went ahead and signed up for the Spanish tour. We went to their restaurant while we waited and got some lunch and it was honestly some of the best food we had the whole trip. We ordered the yucca and cheese balls for an appetizer. They came out super hot and fresh. It was something we don’t really have in the US and they were absolutely delicious. We shared a main coarse and got the ropa vieja . The marinated meat was very tender and tasty. The white rice that came with it was a shorter grained rice and was SO GOOD all on its own. Add the two together and 😍 We had a latte for dessert. It was well done. Nice and flavorful with smooth textured micro foam on top. The atmosphere was beautiful. We sat outside and watched chickens walking around with their chicks as a boy was trying to catch one. There was a fountain close by, lots of beautiful scenery/plants. It was such a beautiful and peaceful lunch. It seemed to be a favorite spot with the locals as families were coming in and sitting in big groups. I’m assuming it’s a place for the locals to celebrate special occasions. Maria was our tour guild. There was about 15 people in our tour with us being the only ones that didn’t speak fluid Spanish. We could understand some of what she was saying but I’m sure we missed a lot. She was very polite and friendly. She was animated enough in her explanation of things that you could get a pretty good idea of what she was talking about, even with our limited Spanish. She would stop every once in a while and give us the cliff’s notes in English of what she had just explained in detail. She also allowed us to ask questions whenever we had some. She did a great job with the mixed group!

We came for the coffee and the tour. Maria was awesome. She gave us a tour of the place and she was very knowledgeable. We learned so much about the coffee making process. The weather was scattered rain, so I would recommend if you go and it looks like possibly rain, bring a poncho. They have a Cafe and restaurant on site and it looks like they could do other parties here as well.

The food was excellent, and the setting is truly beautiful. However, it would be helpful to consider adding repellent torches or another method to reduce the number of flies in the dining area. The high amount of flies made it difficult to fully enjoy the meal, as many were constantly approaching the food. The lemonade was very good; however, for a price of $10, I expected a larger serving. The portion size felt quite small for the cost. Aside from that, the food was very flavorful, especially the mamposteado and the filet mignon, which was excellent.

One of the highlights of our trip! The property is stunning and the tour was great. Our guide was so spunky and knowledgeable! We took home a bag of coffee and wish the bag would never end! We will be back on our next trip! ❤️

Coffee tour was great with Gabriella. She is very friendly and knowledgeable about coffee She made the tour more enjoyable with her funny jokes and natural humor. We had breakfast at the coffee shop before the tour The turkey sandwich was delicious and portions were great. the coffee… was Amazing!!

Went to Hacienda Muñoz to take the coffee tour and fell in love. The entire property is paradise, the amount of coffee plants as well as the abundance of other flora is breath taking. The food at Yiya's the resturant on sight is delicious. Ate there twice and every single part of dinner was delicious. The wait staff is so kind and helpful especially Josue he took extra time to explain different dishes and options available. The coffee shop also serves the most splendid espresso drinks from the beans harvested and roasted on site. I would definitely make time to visit Hacienda Muñoz if you're in Puerto Rico. It will not disappoint.

Sadly tours only happen on weekends and rarely in english but it was still great to grab a coffee and walk around. They were playing music and it was quite festive.

Incredible coffee and one of the highlights of my Puerto Rico trip! The hacienda has a small coffee shop with outdoor seating. The shop also showcases their roasting process and if you do their hacienda tour, you get a small tasting of their coffee at the end. We ended up purchasing a bag of coffee to bring back home of my favorite roast: East Harvest Yellow Honey Method Specialty Coffee. It was smooth and there was no need to add any sugar to it when prepared. All of the staff were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable about the coffee making process, and were super gracious. Overall: I definitely recommend stopping by if you enjoy coffee. The grounds are beautiful and you can enjoy the coffee shop or the sports bar restaurant that they also have onsite after the tour!

Ambiance is without words because this place is just breathtaking. Service is great. The traditional meals are all amazing. But make sure to do the coffee tour, It's kind of what they are known for.

We love Puerto Rican coffee at home so we knew we needed to stop at a coffee shop farm while visiting Puerto Rico! Hacienda Muñoz came up on our search. Hacienda Munoz coffee farm offers tours on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They offer both English and Spanish tours. English tours are at 10am. Tours are first come first serve and cost $20 per person (though with how large our group was it seems like there is no cap). Be prepared to walk uphill in hot sun for the tour, this would not be a good activity for elderly or small children. Someone actually passed out in my tour group. At the end of the tour you get to try one shot of espresso, I was hoping to try multiple blends of their coffee at that price point, but the espresso was smooth and flavorful. The coffee farm also hosts an event venue, restaurant, coffee shop and bar. The grounds are beautiful with their own peacocks and chickens roaming. It is definitely worth stopping by for the coffee and if you are a coffee lover and want to learn a little more about their process on the farm definitely stop by.

Really nice place! We visited on a Wednesday (so we were unable to do a coffee tour as these are only offered Fridays and weekend), and enjoyed an early dinner at their restaurant. The restaurant has beautiful décor and a patio like atmosphere- you are dining inside a covered pavilion but there are no windows and plenty of open access to the outdoors. We enjoyed the beautiful views of the coffee plantation as well as the local birds nesting in the trees. For the meal, we enjoyed some fried cheese as an appetizer. Very tasty and a generous portion. My love enjoyed a huge rack of ribs, while I opted for shrimp in coconut sauce, one of the specialties of the house. The food was excellent and generously portioned. While the food was very reasonably priced, we felt they overcharged us on the wine which was $14 for a small pour- and we each had two glasses. The price of this supposedly house wine was never disclosed to us and we assumed it would be much more reasonable, considering it was the house option. Regardless, we really enjoyed our meal and the food, atmosphere and service were top notch. Only really detracting a star due to pricey wine of an undisclosed price. Unlike some other coffee plantations we visited, this location was easily accessible, not too far from the highway, and offered nice, ample, lot parking. If you want to enjoy some great coffee without doing a long trip to the mountains, this would be a great option.

I thought this was going to be better than it was, we did the coffee tour but it's basically walking up the little hill and down, you don't get to see the process, they tell you about it. We stopped at the bar to get a bit to eat. The food was good, they had their own beer which was delicious. The place had a little shop where you can buy coffee and merchandise.

Great experience! I attended the 10am coffee tour in English and was glad I arrived a little early to relax and enjoy the scenery first because after the tour, the Hacienda was crowded! The tour offered a great bit of information on coffee growing and local growing challenges. There's a small sampling of coffee at the end of the tour, but also more available for purchase along with the unique coffee beer available on site. My dog was welcome on the tour, even as one of the guests was afraid of the dog so we just distanced ourselves apart during the tour. It was also very hot in the sun, so I was glad to have extra water on hand for myself and the dog because only half of the 60min tour had shaded spots for resting.

Beautiful area, BORING presentation! Was excited to visit a coffee hacienda (plantation) and observe first hand how coffee is grown in Puerto Rico. The Hacienda is very beautiful located in mountainous region of San Lorenzo. Scheduled tour for 3 :00pm started almost an hour late with a group of about 75 people left standing in the hot Puerto Rico sun. Saw nothing up close out on the hacienda, but instead "listened" (guide did not speak loud enough for entire group to hear. Only a handful of people directly in front of guide could hear) to a long tedious talk about the history of coffee making. We walked up several rather steep, wet, slippery hills (one group member even slipped on wet leaves) at different times while the talking continued on and on. There was never an opportunity to observe a coffee plant or look at things up close--just constant talking with little concern for people on the tour standing in sun. Why do all the walking and climbing if there nothing to see. . The only thing we did see were idle, dirty, cobweb covered machines that supposedly process the beans. It would improve the tour to do less talking and provide more hands-on experiences. At the end of tour received a tablespoon of lukewarm coffee to try in bean roasting area as talking continued, was bitter, not good and made me not want to purchase any. Lot of different plants growing on hacienda however guide never mentioned them that I am aware of. Looked like growing plantanes, coco trees, coconuts, pineapple and papayas Guides need to have a microphone or something, tour extremely boring when you can't hear what's being said. Food in restaurant was cold and service extremely slow. If you do not speak Spanish most wait staff won't help you. Skip this very expensive experience unless you enjoy standing in hot humid conditions pretending to be interested.

We enjoyed visiting this coffee hacienda and associated restaurant--Yiya restaurant--where we had an early dinner. It's a beautiful complex in a San Lorenzo coffee plantation where Puerto Rican coffee is cultivated, harvested, and processed into artisanal coffees. We enjoyed a Tempranillo wine in the deck of the restaurant with verdant views and lots of singing birds in full view. For an appetizer we sampled their quesitos con salsa de guayaba(cheese cubes with guava sauce) a nice counterpoint to the tannic tones of our wine. I also sampled their soup of the day which was a garbanzo and chicken soup.For entrees I ordered the cerro de costillas (half rack of baby back ribs with honey mustard sauce) and a tomato and green salad. My better half ordered a coconut sauce shrimp with rice. We loved the food and the dessert (budín de queso) and the excellent service. Our only concern was the overpriced wine at $14 a small pour, but the price of the food items was reasonable.

Excellent cafe that also sells coffee beans, syrups, mugs, and other souvenirs! I believe there's also a restaurant, but I only went and enjoyed the cafe side. Grabbed a small sandwich and empanada to enjoy with my coffee and such beautiful views of the island's nature!

Es un lugar bonito para visitar pero solo eso,esperamos casi dos horas para poder sentarnos. El restaurante estaba limitado de opciones pero nada despues de dos horas queriamos comer.Los sorullos deben acompañarlos con mantecado y servirlos de postre. La pechuga con risotto seco de cilantro no good, Los camarones con coco y mofongo que decia el menu no good. Es un buen lugar pata beber cafe pero para comer no lo recomiendo.

The area is beautiful and the coffee is amazing. We didn't get to do the tour due to a group having reserved the facility, but we took some postcard worthy photos.

We ordered coffee and a pastry. Good to taste, not very fresh, maybe because of the humidity. The place is gorgeous and the girls in the coffee shop are very nice. We went with our dogs and it's wonderful to see that they welcomed us all with open arms. I will be back.

Hermoso lugar Una joya escondida Hay un café donde puedes comer postres Barras si quieres pasar un buen tiempo y un restaurant con comida deliciosa

This was the first time we went on the coffee tour. It's very interesting and worth the drive up. Maria the guide is awesome!! She is very knowledgeable and personable. Made the tour fun. The little snack shop is good, but they need more help. Unfortunately after 40 minutes waiting for a sandwich I asked for a refund. The Chia tea was very good though! It's worth a trip to see.

A beautiful place set among the foothills in Puerto Rico. With the coffee plants growing upon the hills behind you, the open air area of the restaurant is just beautiful! The service was excellent. They provide the menu in both English and Spanish. I had the coffee glazed ribs that day. They were great. I would have preferred a rub versus a sauce but I definitely like them regardless. I ordered an off menu item called mayling, which is a root like a potato or yucca but slightly sweeter & with a purple hue. Of course being a coffee grower/producer, I had to order the espresso martini which was fabulous! I would definitely return anytime I visit Puerto Rico! One of my favorite parts of my trip along with the coffee tour. This is owned by a local family & you can definitely tell they put their heart & soul into their business. Just wonderful all around! Kids are welcome. However, adults don't forget the newer bar area!

Such a lovely place. A friend recommended Hacienda Muñoz and it didn't not disappoint. We took the tour in English with a very lively and entertaining young lady who walked us through the history of the place, the history of coffee and the process of making coffee. We had a few cups of their coffee and pastries. Will definitely plan on returning on a future visit.

I enjoy very much the outdoor dining the beautiful view of the coffee plantation and the must have coffee, the reason I go there for. The small coffee shop Nextdoor is a must seat outside and enjoy a coffee before the tour and see the coffee getting process. The tour is a big hike up the mountainside so be ready to hike it up.

We stopped by only for coffee and it didn't disappoint. What a beautiful property with open spaces all around. Nature at its finest! The coffee was delicious and I walked out with a few pounds of coffee that will be heading to Texas. We didn't partake on any of the tours, but just the scenery and the vibe was enough to have a relaxing time of conversation with the family. Downs: the cashier was very unwelcoming and borderline rude, that set a bad vibe to the visit. the German Shepherd mix dog tied to your "caseta" was another let down, your roosters looked happier. You can do better than that. I am only visiting family and will most likely never visit again. However, I am sure my mom and her gang of senior girls will be heading that way often.

Great coffee tour! Learned a ton about coffee in Puerto Rico while walking through the Hacienda's beautiful grounds. Also, our tour guide Maria Gabriella was fantastic. She is so knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor!

Came here on a Saturday afternoon. Grounds are beautiful with rolling hill, can spot peacocks in the garden. Careful the tour is only in Spanish though. Coffee was fantastic

Beautiful view, loved the coffee and service. Will visit again. You must try their beer.

Coffee is great but their breakfast menu was not very impressive. Gluten free options would be appreciated.

Beautiful grounds, chickens, exclusive coffee and best hot chocolate i ever had.,their juice was great too

Sábado 9 de abril de 2022. Somos de Caguas y hacía más de 6 años que no visitamos Yiyas que es el restaurante de Hacienda Muñoz en el pueblo de San Lorenzo. Como locales fuimos almorzar y buscar un poco de esparcimiento con la vista del campo y de algunos animales. El restaurante se llena de comensales y de otros que vienen del tour del café que ofrecen a $20.00 por persona. Tiene que llamar para más información sobre ese asunto. Vuelvo al restaurante hay una parte con aire y otra al aire libre así que siempre escojo al aire libre. Menú digital y las recomendaciones del mesero. Pase casi dos horas entre el restaurante y la tiendita del café. Si vas al restaurante y vas tomar café después de comer te recomiendo que camines hacia la tiendita y pidas el café allá y de una vez compras para llevar o regalar. Tomate el café en la terraza y disfruta del paisaje. Fuimos de almuerzo pero vamos a ir una tarde a ver el atardecer con un cafecito en mano. La comida de Yiyas es variada y te encantará.

I love their coffee and it was not my first time there. The coffee tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. After the tour we had lunch at the restaurant's terrace. Big mistake, it was so hot and humid, unbearable. Food was just ok, appettizers were better. Too many flies around.

Had some tapas that included cheese and sausage, both were very good. The sangria was also very good

Been to Puerto Rico several times but never knew about this place. Great spot. We came here 3 times during our week vacation. Once for the tour, once for breakfast and once for lunch. Good tour of the plantation, beautiful views, friendly staff, good coffee and great food in the restaurant. Definitely a great hidden spot worth visiting.

We stopped in for coffee and breakfast before a tour. The service was efficient, pleasant, and helpful. The coffee and food at the coffee shop were good, and the terrace seating was lovely.

My family and I visited San Juan and the coffee tour at Hacienda Muńoz was definitely on the list based on the reviews. We are are so glad we did the tour because we had an amazing experience with our host. She was an absolute delight and passionate about PR and the coffee. The small café had excellent pastries and of course we loved the coffee. Highly recommend!

We came here for a tour of the coffee plantation and for my husband to taste the coffee. We had a really wonderful tour of the copy growing area, an explanation of how coffee is grown, and processed. Then we decided to stay for lunch at the restaurant. This food gets a 10 out of a 10 from me! It's an open air restaurant, they have some beer flavored with coffee, which my husband says is yummy. Also have wine and other drinks selections. Beautiful outdoor the decor is beautiful, the view is beautiful, everything is wonderful. My husband is having a steak and cheesy rice, I am having grilled chicken with vegetables, rice, and beans. The beans are great, the chicken and vegetables are also great. Definitely worth the drive to get here!

Absolutely exceptional tour and coffee. So informative and so delicious all around. I want to go back every time I visit PR

Beautiful coffee farm with chickens, peacocks, and open air restaurant. The food was ok but I expected better for some reason, though the flan de coco is very good. We did the tour and it was great. The guide was very detailed, answered all questions and more. The tour guide even spent more time with us than expected. We didn't feel rushed at all. The coffee is delicious. Worth a trip if you're in the area.

This place is really a hidden gem. I wouldn't have known about this place if it weren't for my coworkers. I have been to Puerto Rico for pleasure before but I don't think I would of ever ventured out this far. This place is quite magical, it's one of my favorite places to eat when I'm on the island. The ambiance is just absolutely incredible here, you'll feel like you are in a tropical rain forest. First time coming here I was greeted by a lovely beautiful peacock just wandering around the parking lot followed by my chickens running around and additional peacocks further back. The second time I was not greeted by any animals but I saw a donkey and some more peacocks going up towards the coffee plantation. The food here is quite amazing - I highly recommend anything on the menu. Just a FYI - the entire menu is in Spanish and you may have poor service here if you are trying to search what certain menu items are. Luckily I had people there with me who could explain to me what was on the menu. A safe bet is just get the Churrasco! You can't go wrong with that,, it's so good here. The mofongo is pretty good but not the best I've had, it's a bit on the drier side. For appetizers, I recommend getting the fried cheese. For dessert try the Queso Flan! Oh and of course, get the coffee with it! It is a coffee plantation after all :) The coffee is amazing here and they do some nice latte artwork along with it. You can also buy the coffee next door at the coffee shop (which I did). For cocktails - the mojitos and sangria are very good. Service can be a hit or miss here but the food and ambiance makes up for it. I suggest sitting outdoors even though the indoor area is cozy. Just come here, sit, relax, and enjoy!

Honey salmon is delicious with rice and beans! Josue, the waiter, is very kind and patient. And the place is clean

12/30/22 Beautiful place. Clean. Service fluctuates between excellent and not so much. The bathrooms are tricky. Very small. No handicap stall. Strange since it's the law in PR. Ordered some Chicharrones Kan Kan & the pork was pink inside & the skin wasn't crispy. Every Puerto Rican knows pork has to be fully cooked & the Kan Kan is super crispy & crunchy. No exceptions. After we finished our appetizers, we waited forever to get our plates removed. Only then when they brought our main dishes did they take them away but only after I asked. Ordered a churrasco steak and it was underseasoned. So was the rice. Ordered a coffee desert. Pretty good. And coffee. The coffee that was really good came after we finished our desert. Will not return.

Not a good dining experience. although server was very kind to us, food was cold. order incomplete. my salad was brought with only lettuce and tomatoes. I had to ask for the fruit and walnuts and onions, etc. then they told me they were out of carrots. my food was not brought. we had vegetarian people in our party. told them. they brought bacon in their mofongo. Mentioned the food was refrigerator cold (honestly), and they just took the plate and microwaved it. the only good thing is that they removed the items we couldn't eat from the bill. Beautifuk place. Not recommended...

Coffee is delicious, tour was informative and restaurant was delicious. Food was fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend it!

This place is lovely but the best part is the coffee! Wow! Love it! The place is clean and the ambient cozy!

Very nice plantation. We booked the coffee tour and received great service. But the tour was meh. Not so good coffee either. Guide complained about the dark roast coffee being burnt coffee throughout the tour and the most packets on display were Dark coffee .

Service is Awful, slow and expensive. There were 3 people in my party, we ordered and received only Two, had to ask and wait at the end came back with a very cold serving. The drink was not good. Asked for a frappe and got juice. Bad first impression and BAD service . Left no tip.

If you drink coffee You have to come here The production from the plant to the roasting Amazing experience Food and atmosphere of the restaurant so precious! Coffee drinks the best in the world!

Luis gave us an awesome tour of their operation. His passion for Puerto Rican coffee is palpable. We learned so much about growing coffee, the harvesting process then roasting the beans. The taste test at the end was fun and educational too.

The most beautiful coffee hacienda I have been to, amazing views and great staff. There is something for everyone at Hacienda Muñoz. With Yiya's restaurant with amazing authentic Puerto Rican food, to Amanda's wood with delicious homemade burgers and a cool auto shop, and Doppio Coffee bar.. going to Hacienda Muñoz is defienlty an experience to have when in Puerto Rico. The coffee tour is great and insightful with awesome landscape and peacocks! Recommend and definitely will be back in la isla del encanto!

It was an enjoyable experience.. it's appeal is what I expected.. I would suggest they drop the reservation for tours, etc. When one is on vacation for a week, it's difficult to schedule items weeks ahead when. You don't know they even exist... The staff was friendly and service was prompt at the coffee bar.

TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT - So, my wife tells me that - for my birthday - she wanted us to go to Hacienda Muñoz for lunch. Being a coffee junkie all I could think of was the coffee I was going to get to try there! I've seen the reviews, I've heard the talk on the street, I've seen the bags of the aromatic coffee pass by where I work, I was like a little kid going to Disney. We got there to see the place, try out their food and taste their coffee. The place - beautiful!, the food - very good! They had coffee beer and coffee flan! ( but! here comes the kicker!) when I finally ordered the coffee all I asked for was a regular cup with a little milk to have with my flan! and so I wait and I wait and wait ... the waiter is now sweeping and cleaning up spills from another table and so I wait ... finally, I get my cup of coffee (meanwhile I've eaten have my desert already) I get my coffee and it's just a cup of milk and VERY LITTLE coffee! I asked that, if possible, could he pour out some of the milk and put in more coffee and so I go back to waiting and I I wait, wait... more waiting ... my desert is finished ... he finally shows up with a 'fresh cup'. I put the spoon in and realized that the milk was soured and had curdled in the cup!! Don't you think that being a "Coffee Plantation" with their own Coffee beer and Coffee flan that they would be experts at making a cup of coffee?!!!When I finally got his attention again and told him all he said "oh! Yeah!" I was so mad right then( not being able to taste this supposedly wonderful coffee!) that I just requested the check. For this! he was quick!! No apologies, no 'let me bring you a cup on the house' or a discount on the check, nothing. I went, walked, ate, drank their coffee beer but never tasted the coffee! TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED

#1 is service! This place treats you like a VIP! Even the security guard when you drive in greets you. Everyone is super nice. The tour was A++ in terms of education. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate. It's about 1.5 hour tour even though it's a small area to cover. Lots of information on the tour so come prepared to listen!! We later went to the restaurant to get some food. I definitely recommend getting the coconut beer on draft and not the coffee beer. That one is just funky. Otherwise all the food is good and you can see that the plantain encrusted chicken is enough for 2 easily! Overall incredible experience and will definitely return!

The coffee tour was very informative and interesting. The grounds are beautiful. In the restaurant the service was great. I ordered the vegan dish which had fried plantains and a bean salad, it was delicious. They had the ripest plantains on this trip so far, they just melted in your mouth and were so sweet. I would definitely go back to eat there again.

I started off with a salad which was out of this world ridiculously amazing. A mango dressing with buttered vegetables. My entrée included mahi-mahi with the Malanga, which was similar to a mashed potato but a thousand times better. The pique sauce was to die for.

Amazing spot to check out! Coffee is amazing and so is the food. Definitely have to do the tour, everyone was very nice and attentive. Very nice spot to take photos. Definitely recommend.
