Definitely the best food in Chacala! We had wonderful meals there - breakfast, lunch and dinner. We also took a fun and informative cooking class. The owners are so helpful and the staff is great. We heartily recommend eating at Chac Mool Cafe!

We have travelled in Mexico for over 18 years, been to both coasts, and this place is up there with the best restaurants we've eaten at. All the more amazing as it is a little place on a small beach hours from any destination town(Puerto Vallarta is over 2 hours south). The service in the restaurant was fantastic, but not... More

It was fun to find such good coffee right on the beach in this tiny town. The fresh lemonade and the coconut shrimp were also excellent.
