Placer & Delirio - 97000 Mérida

This was a fantastic experience! All of the staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. The history was well presented and interesting. The chocolate and the other sweets they sell in panadería are exceptional. You'll be glad you came.

Very poor service. They do speak english but do not comprehend what you order. I ordered a hot chocolate, I repeated it and said not too strong. I received a mocha!!! I went back and asked her, if I ordered a hot chocolate why do I receive a mocha! She apologized, and made me a new Mocha!!! Way to go!! They have no idea what they are doing

Nice place very intimate only thing is you can't not split the bill so one has to cover for entire bill ? oh it is pet friendly ? ?

Excelente dark coffee, delicious hot chocolate w/o sugar, and a wide assortment of pastries, cakes and Mexican breads.

This small cake and coffee shop next to the Museum of Chocolate is not just open until late (with the handwritten sign outside indicating a 22:00 closing time), but had a surprisingly large selection of cakes when we dropped by around 20:30. First things first: I really liked my double espresso. As for the main attraction: out of the cakes I tried, I definitely preferred the tiramisu one. The passion fruit cake could have done with a bit more zest (and a bit less density), whereas the violet macaroon had - and this is going to sound unfair - a little too much violet. That said - the good selection of baked goods, the friendly staff and the cosy courtyard make this place worth a visit.

A lovely quaint bakery just across the Parque de Santiago. The assortment looks lovely and it's great to see how much effort is put into the dishes and coffee. I'm going to be frank here, though. We ordered a tiramisu chocolate cake, a violet macaron and a passion fruit Charlotte Russe. The tiramisu cake was the absolute winner here: soft, not too heavy, nice chocolate and cream taste. The passion fruit Charlotte russe still can use some work: maybe a bit less gelatin, eggs beaten more and a swirl of passion fruit and lemon to give it a kick or refreshing center. The violet macaron was a bit "soap-tasting", mostly because it was paired with dark chocolate - it felt like the violet needs to amp up its power to emerge from the chocolate. I'd rather the violet would be paired with some fruity (black- or blueberry or cream/white chocolate-like ganache). It would make it a bit more subtle I think. Well, aside all this commentary, it's very nice to see such effort into cakes and coffee in Mérida. Their cappuccino is amazing though, I can really recommend.

This is an absolutely lovely spot tucked away on Calle 59. Don’t be fooled by the unassuming street approach. This place is special. Once inside, it is absolutely delightful. So many wonderful options to choose from. Everything from the sweet, to the savory, to the chocolatey! On top of it all, they have a variety of hot drinks to choose from. They have a super friendly staff to boot! Definitely worth a visit if you are ever in the city.

Excellent coffee, tea, and pastries. We sat and ate in their small eating area and also took many breads and pastries to go with us to enjoy later. Everything was delicious especially the chocolate croissants. Waitstaff was helpful and kind. We are looking forward to our next visit already.
