La Isabelica Casa del Cafe

Varadero doesn't have a lot to boast in the way of coffee shops, but La Isabelica (in Marina Gaviota) is one safe bet when it comes to enjoying a great brew. Coffee comes in multiple varieties, and both sweet and savoury snacks are served to compliment the drinks.

Ice cream is a beloved local treat, and for breakfast, the customary combo is that of a "tostada" (toasted bread with butter) and cafe con leche, often accompanied by fresh fruit.
