The Brownies are the best we've ever had. The lattes were also very good, complete with latte art that stayed to the last drop. After finding this place we went back every night for a latte and dessert. We went to both locations in Playa and found the one on the corner of 5th and Constituyentes to be the best.... more

My sister and I visited the Ah Cacao in Playa and got iced lattes. This is a staple item for me here in the states and get from either Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks but this place blew them away!! No bitterness, smooth texture...awesome! We each took a bag of Molido Espresso home for our espresso machines. I'm totally addicted! The... more

Thank you very much for your feedback. We put a lot of effort into making all our drinks as good as possible and it's great when somebody notices! The US online store sells the same whole bean coffee we use in our store, which you grind for espresso. Alternatively, you can place a special order for pre-ground coffee. The reason...

2 weeks ago my family and I went to the 5th Ave and Constituyentes in Playa and the new location in La Isla in Cancun. Both have excellent coffee, treats and service.
