Pinky's Calle Loíza

25 year+ San Juan Breakfast favorite and it’s easy to see why this spot stays highly rated. They keep it affordable (dishes ranging from $8.50-$16.50), use fresh ingredients, and definitely know how to serve up a filling breakfast without breaking the budget. The customer service was great too, which always makes the experience even better. We tried the viral Mallorca Breakfast Sandwich, the Boricua Especial, and the Drunken Pilot—and we’d absolutely recommend all three. It’s a smaller spot and fills up fast, so don’t be surprised if there’s a wait… but trust us, it’s worth it. We loved that while we were waiting, they were proactive and took our order ahead of time so that we didn’t have to wait long for our food once we sat. This never happens so this was a point in our book. There are a few locations in San Juan but we visited the Calle Loiza location. This place is worth the visit.

Came here on a Thursday morning and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast. The portions are huge and the couple next to us got smoothies and they gave them the entire blender per person. I would recommend sharing your entree with your family if you aren’t too hungry. The food and coffee were delicious and the waitress was very friendly and helpful. The bread was amazing as well. They have limited seating so eating here on a weekend morning would probably have a wait for a table. Highly recommend☕️

This was the best breakfast I have had in Puerto Rico. The atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, like reconnecting with family. Soul and R&B music fill the space as you enjoy every bite. A definite go to spot.

We are here twice on our trip to San Juan because of the excellent food and location near our rental. This place has everything you might want: fabulous smoothies (in a really generous portion, served in a small blender), hearty sandwiches on delicious toasted bread, even pancakes. The ingredients were all fresh and tasted great. I did order my smoothies half sugar which was perfect. The space is small and you might have to wait a bit for a table, but the service is friendly and fast. Prices are so reasonable! Plus, delicious house made hot sauce!

Wonderful brunch spot in the heart of Calle Loiza! We had lattes with almond milk, breakfast bagel, and their huuuuge banana pancakes! I recommend sharing the pancakes if you can. The location is small so there may be a wait time but I suggest you arrive early and with patience. I look forward to visiting again soon!
