Cafe Elixir

Top choice in Amazon Basin


You don't find this sort of cafe very often in Peru, let alone in Yarinacocha. Lovely coffee (the city's best), freshly squeezed juices and 100% homemade food are all served at reasonable prices. Some of the creative, veggie and vegan-friendly concoctions include Peruvian or Jamaican curry (go and find out) as well as the house take on pad thai.

In colorful, cozy, traveler-friendly environs, local products from artworks to herbal remedies to ayahuasca soap are also sold.
