Dan's Café Deluxe

Puerto Escondido


Dan was one of the founders of local legend El Cafecito and this spot next to his eponymous hotel is great for hearty, surfer-pleasing breakfasts, juices and licuados (smoothies), and healthy lunch options like salads, whole-wheat sandwiches and vegetable stir-fry. Dan's also does fish and shrimp tacos on weekends.
