Every time I come to get a drink I get a different one. Never disappointed! Drinks are amazing and you may think that they’d be overly sweet but they have just the right kick of sweetness!! So far my favorite has to be the circus cookie frappe. Also the owner is a great guy and easy to talk to. He very much cares for his customers. This little Mexican cafecito spot is a MUST TRY!!

When visiting El Mitote it's immediately clear that the couple behind this lovely cafe pours their heart and soul into every aspect of the experience. Each sip of their signature beverages confirms that you're not just at any cafe, you're part of a story that the owners are crafting with care and love. A visit here is more than just a coffee break. It’s an invitation to be part of a community that the couple has developed with grace and dedication. I definitely recommend this place, there’s so much options to choose from, it’s a local gem that shouldn’t be missed!!”

This place is amazing my favorite place to go to when I feel like having nice cold drink. I would definitely recommend this place. Especially during the summer it’s gonna be even better. This place is definitely better than Starbucks that’s for sure. And the owners are so kind and friendly. Also great customer service too.
