La Cafetería (Casa fuera de casa)

This restaurant is now one of my favorites. The day of my first visit I ordered a Bacon hamburger (comes with french fries), strawberry/blueberry agua fresca, cardamon coffee, chocolate & banana slice of pie and chocolate cookie w/nuts... All extremely flavorful and delicious! My waiter Alex was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable on all the menu items and very good looking. This eatery is a definite if you are ever in Colonia Americana, Guadalajara, Jalisco! 👍👍

Speedy, cordial, friendly, and good experience overall. The food was a 7/10. A bit dry on the chilaquiles and bland coffee.

Jesus what a breakfast! If you are visiting town and want a strong meal to keep you going for the entire day then look no further. The space is cute and plenty of outdoors, and I can tell they get very busy very fast, so better if you make reservations (if they do offer them). My dish was delicious and quite heavy, so be ready to get full. Also, more pricey than average Mexican prices, but understandably so. Pics taken with Pixel 4 XL

We, along with many, many locals, thought it was a great idea to enjoy Sunday morning breakfast here. We were all right—it was so worth the wait! The food and drink choices were unique, interesting, and very tasty. A STANDOUT was the chilaquilea ‘La Cafeteria’... wow. Run, don’t walk.

The restaurant is located on the beautiful boulevard. The outside seating has some awesome views of the streets around. And well.... the food is amazing. The chilaquiles rancheros are so delicious, I added 1 scrambled egg and gave it the perfect touch. The coffee and birote are also delightful

One of my favorite go-to's for meeting up with friends, or even going by myself and study in a nice atmosphere. It's not really a coffee place as the name implies (although they do have a selection of coffee and tea), but everything I have ordered with regard to food is made-fresh, delicious and reasonably priced. My favorites have to be the enchiladas and chilaquiles, but I have also ordered croque monseuir, waffles, several cakes, this special frozen drink (I forgot what it's called), and salads. I have yet to be disappointed! The atmosphere is comfortable with a simple rustic victorian feel and always fresh carnations at the tables. The patio is surrounded by greenery and lit with candles in the evening. Upstairs there's a small clothes/ accessories boutique that's over my price range, but it's still fun to go up and look around at the novelties. Expect it to be crowded weekend mornings.

After a heavy meal at Los Chilaquiles and sightseeing, it was dinnertime. However, neither my friend nor I were feeling hungry so we decided to do a small dinner at a later hour. FOOD: It is your standard cafe food, but I have to say the slice of carrot cake my friend got could literally be shared between a family of 4 so the dessert portions are where this cafe shines. I would go here in the future ONLY for dessert and drinks. DRINKS: Apparently not the best for any other drink except coffee. It is in competition with another cafe that specializes in tea right beside it but I wasn't able to visit the other one. EXTERIOR: We sat on the outside since the weather was nice and the abundance of green trees and plant life around the neighborhood made for a soothing and eye-pleasing background. The tables are well spaced out. INTERIOR: Those with travel companions with mobility issues, be aware that the bathrooms are located on the 2nd floor with a steep set of stairs to access them, with a portion of the ceiling so low that as an almost 6 ft guy, I had to duck slightly. This is most likely because the safety standards are different in Mexico. Otherwise, it is a clean cafe with well-maintained facilities and quaint interior that reminds me of a typical Spanish villa. SERVICE: This was the first restaurant/cafe where the staff attempted to speak English to me when it became apparent my Spanish fluency isn't up to par. Other servers had been almost afraid of me because they either couldn't or didn't want to speak English but here they really try to make travelers feel welcome. This is usually a busy area around weekends so try to save the trip for a weekday.

Excellent service, good food, kind service. Enjoy and relax, you may not see it because is full of plants outside.
