V!VA User‘s Description

From the ‘have a nice day’ sign by the bar to the huge pancakes served for breakfast, there’s nothing Ecuadorian about this place. But unless you’re seeking an authentic dining experience you’re unlikely to be disappointed. The cosy patio café is always packed with travellers and a great place to meet people, and all the dishes on the mind-bogglingly huge menu are excellent.

Great Breakfast

After living here for a bit, I found myself craving American style brunch. Luckily I found the Magic Bean. Great pancakes, omelettes and coffee. A bit pricey, but worth it.

Overpriced

Rating: 25%

Very good food, very poor value for money. For those with $ to spend and don´t know quito very well, it is a safe comfortable place.

I live in Quito from many years ago and it is my favorite place in the city!! Try lunch and dinner, they were terrific! It is very convienient because it is open every day of the year. Try The Magic Bean and enjoy the experience the good coffee.

Good Coffee

Rating: 100%

Excellent coffee, nice place. One of the only places in Quito that understands the concept of coffee to go. The food is good and the portions are humungous. The service is above average but nothing to write home about.

Not that great

Rating: 25%

While traveling through Ecuador i took a job in Quito. In total i stayed in Quito fror around 4 months and ate at all levels of resterant all over the city. The magic bean was about the most over priced place i went. There are many other places in that area with better food, prices and atmospher. That is not to say the food or atmospher were perticually bad it was just very expencive for what was offered and the are better options.
