TREK INTO TOWN... At 8:30 in the morning, it’s already super hot and humid. We find an amazing new breakfast spot for half the price of places around us. Next, we will cab 10 minutes to the center of town for manicures, pedicures and haircuts & other errands - tomorrow, we will find a more long-term solution to stay a few more weeks in this beach town. Stacey has beautiful banana pancakes and banana shake. JW and I get eggs, croissants, toast, beans, juice & coffee for about 3.50 We have been back many times since that 27 NOV review - today was our first try for lunch. We shared 5 / 100 peso promotions: 6-piece bbq chicken wings, fries & a Dos Equis XX lager. Other meal was a delicious cheeseburger. The people make a place: we love a place more, BECAUSE of the peeps we meet throughout the world

The staff was very kind and really helpful, advising activities nearby. We had a quick and lovely lunch, it was very good value. The crepes were delicious. I would certainly go back there or recommend it.

Wow! This was a really great food experience with delicious meals. I hope Le Coq can solve the awkward service and multiple menus that don't match the offerings on the wall. Aside from that, we can't wait to go back for the delicious food. Maybe do some menu planning before you arrive, it's difficult once you're there.

Definitely my favourite place for breakfast. I come here almost every day. The food is excellent and the prices are more like local prices. Not tourist prices. The staff are amazing. recommend ...

Delicious! I only ate from a few restaurants in the area but this was the best seasoned chicken I had! The server was very friendly and patient in explaining menu items. It may take a little while for the check, but it's a shedded area. You are able to relax after your meal. The chicken, the dressing on the salad, the cheese omelette, and the chicken tacos are delicious!

Generous dishes at low prices with high quality products! French flavors in Playa but also international recipes. The kindness of the staff makes everything even more enjoyable. 5*
