Atavico Arte Cafe - Quito

This great little place on the same street as the secret garden hostel was fantastic. first, I just pulled myself in for a coffee, and because that was so amazing. I came back to breakfast, which was incredible

A lot of options! From hot sandwiches $3.50-4.50 to whole food dishes with roasted veggies as filled zuchini or eggplant with or without cheese $6-7! Tranquil atmosphere and delicious coffee(tip: try coffee with cardamom).

This place has something really homey and comfortable, so you can definitely spend some time there. i ordered the avocado, tomato and cream cheese sandwich without the cheese and it was delicious. staff was super friendly and the overall atmosphere definitely made me want to go back

I was expecting a range of vegetarian and vegan meal options at the place based on descriptions online. Sadly I was extremely disappointed. Few meal options and mostly meat based meals. I ordered what I was told to be a vegetarian dish and it was full of mince. The other vegetarian dish I had was very average. Prices were high for the quality of the food. I would rate this place lower but Happy Cow does not allow a lower rating.

I had the stuffed eggplant with mushrooms, and it was very tasty! The staff was very nice (although not fully fluent, so speaking some Spanish would definitely be helpful). I also had the chips and guacamole which was delicious. Great vegan option!
