We Love Ah Cacao Chocolate Cafe, Cancun

Experience the delicious tastes of Mexican coffee and chocolate, direct from the plantation. In Ah Cacao, coffee, chocolate and vanilla are presented in all their mouth watering forms, from artisanal coffee drinks by skilled baristi, to soft, succulent, brownies baked daily. They even have have a range of chocolate body care products - you have to try the chocolate shampoo! And if you're concerned about your health, check out the cacao products with no added sweeteners. These give you all of the health benefits of cacao (antioxidants that fight aging, blood pressure reduction, increased mental acuity, etc.) without any sugar or artificial sweeteners. Best of all, thanks their fine-flavor criollo-type cacao, they taste great. The ancient Maya knew that cacao was something special when they began cultivating it thousands of years ago and you can enjoy their gift today at Ah Cacao. Don't forget to buy for your friends, family and pantry back home!

 Only place we've found in Cancun that knows how to make a good espresso.
Dropped in here yesterday, after reading some reviews. Spot on, best coffee we've found since we arrived.If you like good espresso, don't bother asking all the other places that have machines; they don't know how to use them. Head straight for Ah Cacao. You won't be disappointed!

 Chocolate Heaven
We are frequent customers whenever we come to Cancun. Located in La Isla Shopping Center, this little spot has the best chocolate experience around. We love their fresh brownies, chocolate ice cream, baking cocoa and boxed chocolates to take back home...and their Mayan Hot Cocoa is a treat any evening! Service is always friendly, usually younger staff, similar to a Starbucks MO. Yummo!!

 Yummy drinks , great service and best of all free wi-fi!
The service is PHENOMENAL. I went to visit with my 2 kids while we were just spending a few hours at the mall. I had never taasted Mayan chocolate, so the clerk was kind enough to give me a sample. He saw me reading all the drins and trying to figure out what I wanted, so he began offering suggestions. I decided I did not like the Mayan chocolate but ordered some other kind of mocha/coffee. It was delicious. The wi-fi at my hotle (Krystal) was really slow, so I sat right in the table in the front of the store for about an hour and had no problem! Great service, great drinks. Can't go wrong!!

 You can't go wrong here
This is my favourite shop in Cancún and Playa Del Cármen. The Ah Cacao coffee only provides fresh and quality food. The espresso is served in a real espresso cup and with the best quality grains of the drink. I tried a few types of cakes in here, and oh... They`re very tasty. The chocolates can be compared easily with Lindtt, Godiva and Kopenhagen ones. I was never let down there when I was looking for a great cup of coffee. This is a must try!

 Coffee out with family
You can go later in the evening with family just to enjoy a cold or hot cocoa. At night the plaza is calmer so you can enjoy your drink with no hurry.

Everything from the staff's welcoming and the service to the delicious drinks and pastries are just wonderful at this place! Make sure to ask for a Mayan Chocolate if you're into new experiences! The chocolate tamal, the cheesecake and the artisanal ice creams & mousse are also highly reccomendable!

 Great place for ice coffees in the afternoon!
We loved coming here for our afternoon espresso frappes. Nice local establishment specializing in Mexican chocolate and coffees. Not a Starbucks fan so this place was a nice change. Located in the Isla Mall right across from our hotel the Westin Lagunamar. Friendly young kids working there too!

 The flavor of coffee!!!
I enjoy a cup of coffee every day, especially Cafe Americano at the Starbucks. When we went to La Isla Shopping Village, we stopped by Ah Cacao Chocolate Cafe and tried to eat something. It was a little humid and hot so I ordered an espresso iced cafe americano. The flavor and taste of coffee was great. It's better than my favorite so I purchased a pack of coffee.

 BEST CHOCOLATE EVER!
If you are looking for some seriously good chocolate, from chocolate bars, ice-cream, coffees to cakes, cacao powder....etc. then this is the place to visit. I LOVE the gluten free chocolate mousse and also having chocolate brownie with brownie ice-cream on top is a treat to die for. So to sum it all up....great little café with good prices and chocolate of the highest quality. The best part is that it is a local café and all the products are made right here in Riviera Maya.

 The best coffee and the best customer service
This place is amazing. For half the price of US Starbucks you get way better coffee and way better service. For example, the employees are polite, friendly, and they bring your coffee out to you. We loved the cappucinos and lattes. Their chocolate is delicious also. Open at 8 am so that's a plus! Seriously thanks to these guys for caffeinating us every morning!

 Best Mayan chocolate
I love this place. It is in La Isla mall in Cancun and has sipping chocolate- forget hot cocoa- this is chocolate melted with a smudge of milk. We get the dark chocolate. Buy the chocolates and cocoa to bring home. It's a lot less than anywhere else and high quality. They also can make it with skim milk for those of us wanting to cut calories. They can also use Splenda in the homemade hot cocoa

Nice selection of coffees, chocolates and ice cream flavors. They also offer 100% cacao hot chocolate with almond milk for those who are casein sensitive. The expresso coffee is just excellent! Nice setting and their prices are very reasonable, especially if you are using USD.

Forget Starbucks, this is the place you need your fix from.The most unique item on the menu is the sipping chocolate and it is probably also the best item on the menu.We had their ice creams, lattes, frappes, americanos and nothing disappointed.The ingredients are local and the flavours are fresh.The only thing we did not enjoy were the tamales so I would avoid any food items.Stick to the beverages and the desserts but makes sure you go and visit.You will not regret it.

 Good Breakfast Coffee and Food!
We discovered this place at the end of our trip. At the La Isla Mall just across the street from our hotel at The Westin Lagunamar, this was a very good breakfast stop.We had two Mexican coffees and split a chocolate croissant and a ham and cheese croissant. It was very affordable. We ended up buying some gift boxes of chocolates to take back to family!Bonus: Free Wifi!

 Best chocolate bakery items!
Stopped in late evening and bought a brownie, chocolate mousse, and some dark cacao squares. Staff seems friendly and helpful.The squares are nice and smooth melting and not sweet or bitter (for those who like dark chocolate).The mousse is amazing. Not as light as whipped cream, not as viscous as pudding, but somewhere perfectly in the middle. And the flavor is full on without being too sweet.The brownies are in between fudge and cake. Again, the cocoa flavor is full-bodied -- without being too sweet.These were so good, we made a special trip to get more the next day to have on the way back home.

 Best Espresso in La Isla Mall!
Ah Cacao is a quick walk across the street from the Westin Lagunamar. My favorite daily ritual was a double latte with a couple pieces of chocolate con leche. Sometimes staff pass out samples of chocolates as you enter the cafe. A good stop for a little pick me up. Staff is friendly and speak English. Chiapas Mexican coffee has a rich full bodied fruity and nutty flavor and I plan to take some home.

 The best chocolate and vanilla!
This is our favorite place and we wish we had it in the US. We love the natural ingredients! Our kids' favorite was the vanilla frappe. So much better than Starbucks! This is where the natural ingredients come through (our daughter has various allergies so I have seen the ingredient list at Starbucks-mostly artificial ingredients). They also have soy and almond milk options. My favorite was the cafe latte frappe. But, I was tempted to get the vanilla because it was really good. The chocolate mousse is great and dairy free. The corn cake is amazing and gluten free. We love the dark and milk chocolate too. We bought some Mexican hot chocolate to bring back home. Every time we come to Cancun this is where we go for at least 3-4 days.

I was suffering serious coffee withdrawal and happened across this lovely shop. My husband ordered the traditional Mexican hot chocolate and I had a large cappuccino. We were treated to samples of chocolate while we waited(delicious)by the the charming young barrista and answered our questions about local attractions etc. It was a nice respite while shopping. Gracias. Capp and cocoa hit the spot.

Easy to find and so enjoyable. We bought a variety of cacao chocolates and enjoyed several of their coffees.We definitely recommend this cafe.Cheers, Anna and Rob and Victoria and James Lowery

 Yummy drinks , great service and best of all free wi-fi!
The service is PHENOMENAL. I went to visit with my 2 kids while we were just spending a few hours at the mall. I had never taasted Mayan chocolate, so the clerk was kind enough to give me a sample. He saw me reading all the drins and trying to figure out what I wanted, so he began offering suggestions. I decided I did not like the Mayan chocolate but ordered some other kind of mocha/coffee. It was delicious. The wi-fi at my hotle (Krystal) was really slow, so I sat right in the table in the front of the store for about an hour and had no problem! Great service, great drinks. Can't go wrong!!

 You can't go wrong here
This is my favourite shop in Cancún and Playa Del Cármen. The Ah Cacao coffee only provides fresh and quality food. The espresso is served in a real espresso cup and with the best quality grains of the drink. I tried a few types of cakes in here, and oh... They`re very tasty. The chocolates can be compared easily with Lindtt, Godiva and Kopenhagen ones. I was never let down there when I was looking for a great cup of coffee. This is a must try!

We read the good reviews and saw pictures on Tripadvisor but our experience was just basicWe ate here a few times as it was so convenient to the Westin Lagunamar. The pastries were dry and almost stale. The coffee, cappuccino or lattes never once were given to us with pictures as shown on Tripadvisor.The employees were not overly anything. No welcome feeling. No eagerness to help. Just a basic experience

 Hit the spot!
We ventured in here trying to kill some time before we left for the airport. Everyone was looking for a little pick-me-up before we left, and this definitely hit the spot. We all ended up ordering Mocha Frappe's and they were delish. Ice cold and full of flavor. The girl behind the counter was very kind, and spoke great English. If you're looking for a little something sweet, this is a great place to stop into!

 Great for a quick evening drink
This is half cafe half store. There is a small seating area outside where you can people watch and sip your hot chocolate. Inside the store you can take home items and other souvenirs. Worth checking out for a few mins if you are in the La Isla Mall.
