Café Berlín

Café Berlín is a restaurant across from Plaza Colón in Old San Juan that has been serving customers since 1991. Its menu combines Puerto Rican dishes with international food, including a good number of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. There's also an outdoor terrace where you can sit and watch people walking through the plaza. For breakfast or brunch, the restaurant serves pancakes with strawberries, brioche French toast with guava sauce, mallorcas filled with eggs, ham, and Swiss cheese, and traditional egg breakfasts with potatoes and pan sobao toast. The rest of the menu includes mofongo, with vegan versions available, empanadas, tofu dishes, salads, and other house specialties. Coffee, juices, lemonades, and other drinks are available throughout the day. Customers can eat inside or choose a table on the terrace. Café Berlín is particularly useful for groups with different dietary preferences, since someone looking for a plant-based meal can find more than the usual side salad while everyone else orders from the regular menu.
