About This Spot

Stepping into El Agradecido, you’re gently welcomed by an unpretentious, homey vibe nestled along Punta Cancun’s bustling Zona Hotelera. It’s the kind of place where the hum of easy conversation mingles with the inviting aromas of freshly brewed coffee and sizzling breakfast favorites, crafting a warm and approachable atmosphere that encourages you to linger long after your first sip.

Though it’s a brunch restaurant, El Agradecido carries the comforting spirit of a beloved local eatery—where meals unfold at a relaxed pace and every plate feels thoughtfully prepared. Here, morning stretches comfortably into afternoon, and the air-conditioned space becomes a small refuge from the tropical sun, offering both refreshment and respite.

The menu is a gateway to familiar flavors with subtle twists that nod to the coastal setting: imagine the gentle sweetness of a hot cake paired with a bright banana smoothie, or the simple pleasure of a ham and cheese omelette alongside a vivid ceviche made from the freshest local catches. Each dish carries a straightforward honesty, encouraging moments of savoring without rush.

El Agradecido’s charm lies not in glossy decor but in the rhythm of genuine service and the genuine smiles that greet you. It’s a spot where the focus rests on shared experiences—whether it’s gathering over comforting plates like fish tacos and huevos motuleños or enjoying a mango margarita that tastes of sun-soaked afternoons.

Visitors often find themselves drawn into a space that feels more like a neighbor’s kitchen than a typical hotel zone eatery: relaxed, sincere, and just a little unexpected amid the lively Cancun backdrop. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, savor good company, and appreciate the simple joy of a meal well made.

Absolutely Fantastic! Don’t miss out on this place! It really is fantastic! We had a variety of foods! Pancakes and bacon and eggs! And.. a Hawaiian burger that was so so great! Service perfection . Comfortable and friendly . I’ve been to a zillion restaurants in my life.. I’m 63 today! And this is a winner!

Very pretty breakfast/brunch spot. Ask about prices beforehand. The menu they up sale doesn't have prices. It was $33 dollars for birria tacos. Overall, the service was great, and the atmosphere is terrific.

Honestly don’t understand the reviews here. It was fantastic. Wait was a SMIDGE longer than normal but that’s it. I had the ceviche. Wasn’t the biggest fan of the chips (too rough) but my girlfriend had the rancheros huevos and was good too. The bacon was AMAZING. Drinks reasonably priced and good.

We came here for late breakfast (12pm) and were amazed! It’s a hidden place that has the best food and drinks we have had here in Cancun. The service is extremely special. The decor is not that attractive but it didn’t matter. Try this place! It’s so worth!

Our experience here was great! We were looking for a place in the hotel zone that served breakfast food (eggs, pancakes, etc) and this place did not disappoint! First, you walk in and are pleasantly greeted by all the floral decor. You can tell they put thought and effort info the design. We were seated promptly. Our sever was very sweet, not pushy. Ordered coffee (bonus / they have almond milk!) and omelette - one ham/cheese, one vegetarian. Flavors of the food fantastic!! We were pleasantly surprised! Do note on the receipt, they automatically add in a suggested tip - glad i saw that to not double tip!
