Reviews: Two really good places for coffee in Los Cristianos

When I first arrived on the island, I stopped for a coffee in Los Cristianos. What I got was a builder’s type mug with a crack, filled with grey liquid. When I asked if they had freshly ground coffee the answer was no, and I was proudly shown a notice telling passers-by they served English tea and presumably English instant coffee.

Since then I have found a couple of places that I really like and you may either know them or wish to try them. They are both excellent.

Cafe Mestizo

Cafe 5

If you stand in church plaza with the church on your right, there are two roads running down towards the sea, (the main one with all the restaurants) and one to the left - this is the one you need and it is just past the clothes shop Terry's.

I have never been in those but passed them many times. Must remember for next time

Used to be a book shop ?, spent ages sat talking to a tabby cat while janet looked around, Cat has vanished now, i called it tigger after mine,
