Food scene

La Miga in town is the best bakery in Colombia! I have lived in Colombia for 6 years and (although the competition is weak) this is the best bakery I have found. I highly recommend the Chocolate Bread!

Camarita is a legend in Minca. His traditional "llanero" barbeque has attracted visitors from all over. The place is simple, the food is tasty, the views are spectacular (keep your eye out for the Monnkeys) and the "postre" is always available for those who would like to indulge. A great little spot to enjoy the nature and fill your belly. I recommend the Pulpa de Cerdo, its the most tender piece of pork you'll get in Colombia! Located via Pozo Azul, about 3-hours walking from town or 25 mins in a moto!

Consejos para la ciudad

No te lo pierdas

Cafe Costa (for remote workers)

Given our location in the moutain, the power tends to go out occasionally. Cafe Costa in the town of Minca is one of the only places with a generator, so you can charge your devices and stay connected. Keep in mind if the power goes out on the mountain, Cafe Costa will have power but will not have internet. In the past I have used their power to keep my devices charged and connected to mobile data (Claro sim card) using my cell phone as a mobile hot spot.
