La Tradición Palenque

Loved the vegan options here, had both the waffles and the tostada multiple times. Also recommend the fresh fruit waters (we loved the melon) and the cheesecake for non vegans. The tostada was one of the tastiest things I’ve eaten in Mexico and I regretted not getting it sooner! The only thing I’d say could be improved would be if the menu was marked with gluten free options, I’m not coeliac but like to avoid gluten as it doesn’t agree with me, and I figured the tostada and the oatmeal waffles would have minimum gluten in them; this seemed to be the case and I felt great after eating them, but if they were marked on the menu that would be even better!

I would give 6 stars if I could. The owners, Alfonso and his wife are such lovely, kind and hospitable people! We enjoyed talking with them a lot. They even were so kind to drive me to the right pharmacy to get some medication as I had stomach problems arriving in Palenque. Alfonso cooks delicious food and all with high quality and hygiene. His wife is an expert in cacao. Their hot chocolate and chocolate cake is delicious! They have many cakes…all delicious! Also different choices for breakfast/lunch. Many gluten free and vegan option.
