Visited Viva this morning for a coffee and croissant. I had an iced coffee I was kindly informed was made from espresso, crushed ice and brown sugar blended together to make a lovely cold and creamy drink. Nice selection of pastries to choose from. Will definitely return!

A Hidden Gem for Coffee Lovers - Viva Gastro-Cafe. If you’re looking for a cozy spot with outstanding coffee and more, look no further than this charming little cafe. Despite its small size, this place stands out in a big way, thanks to its top-notch coffee, delicious bites, and the warm hospitality of Antonio. The star of the show here is the coffee. They serve Borbone, a rich and smooth blend that’s a real treat for the taste buds. Whether you’re a coffee aficionado or just need a pick-me-up, you’ll find yourself savouring every sip. And if you’re in the mood for something cool and refreshing, their frappe lattes are an absolute must-try. Creamy, flavourful, and perfectly blended, they’re the ideal treat on a warm day. They also offer a variety of smoothies, made with fresh ingredients, perfect for a healthy boost. But it’s not just about the beverages. The sandwiches are fresh and flavourful, making for a perfect lunch or snack. The delicious, juicy Chicken Teriyaki Bocadillo is a standout, combining tender chicken with savoury teriyaki flavours, all tucked into a perfectly crisp baguette. And don’t miss out on homemade cakes. The ice cream—it’s creamy, indulgent, and the perfect sweet finish to your visit. What truly sets this cafe apart, though, is Antonio. His genuine warmth and passion for what he does make every visit special. He goes out of his way to ensure that every customer feels welcome and leaves with a smile. Puerto del Carmen is full of cafes, but this one is a standout for its quality, variety, and charm. I can’t recommend it enough—if you’re in the area, make sure to stop by. You won’t be disappointed.
