The cafe specializes in quintessential Costa Rican cuisine, offering a selection that is not only affordable but also bursting with personality.

Lindsay Schroeder shares, "El café muy rico y tienen variedad de repostería," capturing the essence of the cafe’s appeal as a go-to for those seeking a cozy corner to unwind.

However, the cafe is not without its quirks; one customer mentioned that the Wi-Fi was not functioning during their visit, which served as a gentle reminder that sometimes, it's good to disconnect and immerse yourself in the moment— a philosophy that undoubtedly resonates with the atmosphere of Trigo Miel.

In a city filled with bustling cafes, Trigo Miel stands out as a heartwarming establishment that captures the soul of Costa Rican culture.

Amazing place! Food is delicious. Very cheap $. Bathroom is clean and the entire team is polite, helpful and welcoming. We got the “pinto con huevo” and added extra egg and fried fresh cheese. The special comes with a drink so we picked café con leche.

What a charming cafe! Our favorite items were Arrollados de pollo ó carne. You have to try! The beef and chicken fillings were flavorful! The service was really wonderful. It was our last breakfast in Costa Rica and it was such a good experience. We will definitely come back here again! Muchas Gracias!

Very friendly staff and delicious coffee. I passed by during my morning walk and had a delicious cafe latte. 4 stars only because the WiFi wasn't working or non-existent.

Still very good, I remember eating from this place since ever. One of the best if you're craving for a baked sweet.

Siempre es una grata experiencia ir al Trigomiel de Aranjuez, el espacio es hermoso y buena atención y es económico. En mi última visita deje olvidado un termo en el que llevan agua y ellos muy lo devolvieron, se valora mucho esa honradez.
