As you’d surmise from the name, this is the place to stop for a quick morning or afternoon pick-me-up of homemade juice made from every fruit or fruit mix imaginable. The enormous blackboard behind the counter shows you what’s on the day's menu, which usually includes a selection of veggie wraps and coffee cakes. The decor is pretty basic—you sit on stump stools at your plastic table—but the aqua and white color scheme really cheers things up.
Café Bombay
Despite the name, you'll find very little that is Indian about the cuisine here. The menu is a real catch-all, and "vegetarian" or "macrobiotic" are better descriptions to describe the falafel, pita, pad thai, burritos, lasagna, and key lime pie. Dine inside, or grab one of the two umbrella-covered tables on the front deck and survey the action on Calle Santander.
Legumbres Mayas
“Legumes" might not be the sexiest feature of a restaurant name, but this little cinder-block, rickety-tabled joint has plates and plates of those fresh veggies you've been missing—and not the boring kind, either. Heaping helpings of beans and rice can be had for about Q20. Vegetarians and vegans especially will rejoice. The folks are friendly, too.
