El Perro Verde - or Green Dog - is Cozumel's hippest downtown vegetarian café.
Once you stop laughing at the green canine logo, step inside for a scrumptious home-made menu in an artistic environment.
As well as a sense of humor and great food, this eco-eatery offers the best chai on the island and a space to relax and make new friends.

 Healthy eating.

Open mornings and evenings, the Mexican and Spanish owners offer a range of healthy snacks, meals and drinks, both indoors and in the garden patio.
Try out the Crazy Monkey sandwich, with home-made, sugar-free peanut butter, celery, cucumber and pumpkin seeds.
 Relaxed, artistic atmosphere. |

If you're feeling a bit more peckish don't miss the authentic Spanish Tortilla Omelette or Sauerkraut Toasties.
Fresh fruit juices, shakes, teas and coffees are available to go with your meal, and be sure you don't leave the island without trying the unique 'Space Ship'.
A house recipe, this cosmic rocket is a delicious mix of sweet chicozapote jelly, a regional speciality, with coconut ice cream, raisins, berries and honey. |
