Cafes in Tenerife at la Orotava.

Puerto de la Cruz Plaza Charco cafes

There are several but the one with best cakes and Penguino ice creams is Columbus Plaza Cafe.

Of course, fresh bread, pastries and tarts are usually behind a counter. You can consume on the spot or buy takeaway. Teas are also available.

Each of such cafés has something special in general.

However, the essential of such places is their aroma of freshly brewed coffee. 

Supracafe Coffee is one example for good Espressos, such as Café Solos or Cortados on the Canary Islands. You smell the heavenly scent of it, as soon as you enter a coffee house that serves it.

More Tenerife coffees

• Cafe con Leche the UK Coffee Americano
• The tiny Leche Leche with a large percentage of sweetened condensed milk
• The erroneously served Barraquito as a large Leche-Leche without liquor
• Saperoco a slightly sweet coffee with liquor, condensed milk, milk and cinnamon on top
• The real Barraquito is prepared like the Saperoco but without Liquor

 Usually, freshly baked bread and pastries also enchant the senses in establishments that celebrate coffee drinking.

Mind that the culture of consuming coffee isn't new in Tenerife. The other day, an Italian friend of mine pointed out to me a vintage espresso machine.

It's a big beauty made of brass that stood the test of time downtown in the island's capital Santa Cruz.

The story about a former very historical Santa Cruz Tenerife capital cafe now unfortunately modern.

Starbucks Puerto de la Cruz at Casa Miranda

Has been in town since end of February 2018. It is an American style Cafe where Coffee is different and it costs a bit more.

Starbucks didn't appeal to tourists, some said. The foreigners wanted a typical local Café with Spanish owners or owner. Then David Rodriguez took over sometime in 2021. Everything he serves is excellent but not cheap, of course.

German Melita Palmelita Cafe chain

The Tenerife holiday home insider already discovered two of six in 2008 together with the beaches Playa el Arenal as well as Playa Bajamar However, she didn't know at the time that the Melita or Palmelita Cafeterias are now part of a Franchise with according high prices. They all sell the Melitta Coffee brand and home made German bakery products of outstanding quality. Google Cafe Melita and even find more info by their web to also buy their jams online. The method used to prepare coffee with Melitta filters isn't Spanish at all but local coffees should be available too.

Cafe Sandra La Paz Puerto de la Cruz

A Cafe I am not affiliated to and which isn't cheap. That means you can drink as much German filter coffee as you want for a set price. Cappuccinos,
delicious cakes and free Internet are available as well. Opens in winters only... Cafe exception at Tenerife South

That's Hard Rock Cafe which is rather a Rock music club. Long drinks and food are available.
