Barrio Cafe

After an 8-hour bus ride from Costa Rica, I was starving when I arrived at this restaurant. The service was excellent, with friendly staff and a great atmosphere. The ambiance of the restaurant was beautiful and the seating was comfortable. The food came out quickly and was delicious. The portions were generous and the prices were reasonable. I will definitely be returning!

The coffee at this restaurant is delicious. I have visited several times and would definitely return to try more dishes on the menu. The staff is super friendly and the portions are large, so make sure you come hungry. The menu is neat and the service from the staff is extraordinary. The burger was a bit heavy for my liking, but the Eggs Benedict was pleasant and the wrap was good. The prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is very nice.

During our 3-day stay in SJDS, we discovered this wonderful place. Despite the noise mentioned in other popular reviews, we found the music to be calm and soothing, so there was nothing to worry about. The presence of a night guard also gave us a sense of security against unwanted visitors. The rooms were impeccably clean, the water was hot, and the prices were very reasonable for the area. I must mention the delicious food as well - the included breakfast was fantastic, allowing us to mix and match dishes like the fruit bowl and eggs. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch there, with the best nachos we had throughout our entire journey (see attached picture)! I highly recommend staying here and trying out the food.

Honestly the best food and service I've had in all of Nicaragua. The ceviche is to die for, the breakfast is fantastic and the pasta is amazing. Authentic food and locally owned. Great coffee and cocktails as well. Definitely worth the visit. You'll probably come more than once. I promise.

My favorite breakfast spot. I’m vegetarian and this place cooks clean and delicious meals. The music isn’t loud like it is at other places. This means you can actually have a conversation with the person next to you! Most restaurants in the area have LOUD, annoying music. I could literally go here everyday. Thank you for the food and kindness!
