Cacao and Canela is a delightful café serving, as the name suggests, all things chocolate and cinnamon. The menu consists of a long list of every kind of hot chocolate imaginable. The cacao used to make the chocolate is grown in Ecuador. Also avaliable is beer, mixed drinks, sandwiches and salads. During the daytime the café serves as a quiet place to read a book or chat with a friend but at night it fills up and the volume rises. Seating is limited as the place is quite small, but you can take advantage of the loft space and the owners always find a way to squeeze you in. On most weekends there is live music. Open for lunch and dinner.

Although the atmosphere was good and the decor was nice for a place that specializes in chocolate (and cinnamon) the hot chocolate was very mediocre.
I heard from friends that Cacao y Canela was great and had great food, but when I visited, they had run out of several foods - including Chocolate. Also, our waitress was not very polite. I wish I could have returned another time to see if my bad experience was just a one-time thing.
