Crossroads Cafe

Such a cute cafe with great coffee and food. Beautiful environment and amazing service. We had an amazing experience here

What an awesome place! All the coffee is from Guatemala and toasted to perfection by the owner (who is a local). He’s built great connections with all the coffee farms he buys from and pays them top dollar for their best quality coffee. After visiting the cafe twice, I was invited to come the next morning to participate in and learn about the roasting process. Definitely an experience I’ll never forget!! The desserts are absolutely delicious and homemade by the owners wife. Cookies, pies, crumbles, cinnamon rolls, they have it all. A must stop coffee experience while you’re visiting Atitlan!!!!

Amazing cooffee by owner Byron with homemade desserts by his wife.
We got experience to take a look at the process of coffee roasting and also roast our own coffee! What great memory!
Thank you so much Byron!!!

I saw a post about it on a blog and it lived up to everything that was said! The owner Mike was quite entertaining and put 4 coffee chain workers to shame, the way he singlehanded handled the orders for the standing room only crowd (apprx 22 folks at the time)! Completely enjoyed the stories, the cheesecake and coffee, and meeting all the new people

The very best coffee shop in guatemala! I've lived here for many years and this is one of the best places to come for amazing coffee and great company.

Bold, deep, and rich, locally grown, harvested, and roasted coffee. The blueberry pie was amazing! I wanted another piece but resisted temptation.

Our favorite coffee house in panajachel
New owners Jackie and Byron in keeping with Mike’s (past owner) great spirit, great conversation, yummy desserts and snacks to pair with coffee we truly enjoyed meeting you and will return hopefully soon. Hasta Luego amigos ❤

Loved this coffee shop! Carrot cake was amazing, coffee was great, and the people were even better.

Amazing time, had a great conversation with Byron while we drank our coffee. Highly recommend stopping by and supporting this cafe!

Can't say enough about Crossroads Cafe. Came for a cup of coffee and ended up with the most amazing experience. I can't recommend this place enough.

I have never left a review for any place before but I felt this was a must. My gf and I bought some delicious coffee from a beautiful batista here and ended up with the most amazing experience. Also the coffee is so good and so are the pastries.

We then met Byron who tought us of the history of the coffee shop and gave us an enthusiastic and English-speaken tour of how he roasts coffee. We were invited back the following day for coffee drinks and to help roast. The three of us roasted 80 lbs of coffee and my gf and I were given a wealth of information.

Crossroads Cafe is a MUST for any traveler that appreciates a good cup of coffee. Grab a cup, talk to Byron, and see where this place takes you. Crossroads also ships roasted beans around the world at very affordable prices.

Excellent coffee (hands down the best in Guatemala so far) , really delicious buttery and crumbly pie and great service. 10/10

You must stop by here when you get to Panajachel. The owner, Michael, is an incredibly friendly person who speaks fluent English and Spanish and will make you feel welcome the moment you step inside. He roasts his own coffee which is delicious, and has a book detailing his journey from the USA to coming to Guatemala and opening the shop. Highly recommended !!!

Crossroads is a great coffee shops, offering great coffee and sweet treats. But what makes it more than just a regular coffee shop is Mike and his wife, Mike is an excellent man with a lot of passion for life and coffee. He roasts his own coffee in his coffee shop and does this in conjunction with serving and making coffee. He has a lot of energy, we guessed this might be from the amount of coffee he must smell and drink in a day aha. Mike is a storyteller and his coffee shop although a tad bit hard to find, you will. Thank you for the great coffee and the great stories.

Solid place to stop in for a coffee, and I liked the international decorations. They even had a Colorado flag inside which surprised me (I’m from Colorado)!

I have had better cappuccino in Antigua Guatemala, so I would give Crossroads 4.5 stars if I could. But if you’re in Pana definitely stop in for a caffein fix!

Cute little spot, excellent coffee had oat milk too...bringing some coffee back home to Canada. GRACIUS!

Literally my favorite coffee shop in the world. Rivals the best beans in Italy, Caribbean, anywhere. Mike is a character that will have you in stitches. Highest recommendation.

Best Cafe in Guatemala

The owner is very friendly and talkative. He showed us roasting proces of the coffee beans and we exchanged lots of stories.

Thank you so much, Mike.
We will never forget your kind!
Great coffee, precious gift and lovely memory

Hope to see you again :)

A bit pricy for Guatemalan standard but you get what you pay for , best coffee I had in central America and Lou the owner gave me a tour of where they roast their coffee and told me a bit about how he runs the business .Also the place is frequented by expats so I had a nice chat with a few Americans living here .

Borin was great. Let me and my brother Roast some beans, drink some coffee and even had breakfast made by his Wife after the roast before shop opened for the day.
