This a great place, something different. Fantastic coffee and cakes. Tasty food for breakfast or lunch. I had the shredded chicken and avocado arepa followed by a golden latte (turmeric and vanilla)

J. B.

Really nice South American cafe in Preston. I sat inside and got a lovely custard cake and cappuccino. It also sells some South American coffee and foods. It's got seating on two floors and outside, as well as toilets.

Patwa: Da plies ya fiil gud fi jos chil an av som nais fuud. English: "Food that tastes delicious without being heavy", is the way how my wife expressed our lunchtime meal at Cafuné. A calming place that feels a mix between home and eating out.

S. M.

Soooo Good! We popped in here for lunch today. My partner had been wanting to try it for a while. We were not disappointed. Lovely clean little cafe and the staff were friendly and helpful. I had a decaff latè and it was one of the nicest coffee's I've had. The food was so fresh and tasty and was it great to try something a bit different. Lovely presentation even for a sandwich. My little boy loved the smoothie, although he couldn't quite finish it! Looking forward to going back to try something else.

Wow just wow, what a find! So glad me and my friend found this hidden gem (not that hidden to be fair) in the heart of the city. Do not be deterred by the Plywood interior, You will soon notice the artwork on the walls and the chilled effect this has on the venues atmosphere. Food and service are both amazing, with a menu offering many vegetarian and gluten free options to cater for all groups. This includes gluten free cornmeal pancakes and bread products. Also offers more alternative special coffee's and fresh cakes. This is one of the first places I have seen that have utilise QR Codes for the menu, both helping to save the environment due to non paper being used, but also to help prevent cross contamination between customers Would high recommend this place for a small bite to eat, a coffee , or a mix of both if you fancy it! The food is fresh and the fresh coffee is to die for, you won't be disappointed. Sum up - Great Food - Great Coffee - Amazing Service - Good Value for money - Chilled Atmosphere - Authentic South American Food

J. V.

A nice place to have coffee in the afternoon. I went and tried their Brazilian Cappuccino (smothered with Nutella) which turned out to be amazing. Would recommend and will come back soon!

L. D.

I have been visiting Cafune for 3 years and it is safe to say it's my favourite place for lunch, coffee and cake in Preston, really anywhere! The food is consistently delicious, the coffee is rich and smooth and the custard cake.....don't get me started. My partner ordered a whole one for my Birthday cake because I love it that much. I wished I lived in Preston centre so I can visit everyday, as a compromise I got a job just up the road so no I basically can! Also, staff are wonderful. Friendly, helpful and obviously passionate about the food and the coffee. Love it all

R. T.

Amazing place with friendly staff. Great food. Great vibe ✨

E. G.

Lovely café - delicious beverage and food, cozy atmosphere. Definitely coming again!

E. F.

Nice food, lovely people, great atmosphere. The best decaff coffee in Preston

P. G.

The food is good and the drinks are just as good. I have popped in several times and cannot knock the food, drink or service. Apart from the fact that I like to sit outside especially in the sun. HOWEVER more than often the tables haven't been emptied from the previous customers and the astrays are dirty / not haven't been emptied - a particular no no for me as I don't smoke Would I go again, yes, but if the outside of the cafe is dirty I will walk on by

S.

The stuff food dreams are made of. Excellent, excellent experience here. From the friendly, knowledgeable staff to the wonderfully flavoured food. A real credit to Preston City centre. I would walk uphill in rollerskates to eat their arepas again. Just brilliant!.

S. S.

I love Cafune. They are allergy aware and state on the menu where things are gluten free (never had an issue eating here and I go often now), the staff know what is in the food and can explain to you no problem. You always get a warm welcome and the food is delicious! Healthy, fresh and tastier than your average lunchtime sandwich. I often take out but the cafe is a nice size with upstairs seating and has the brilliant view of the flag market.

J. P.

Visited here for the first time today and was very surprised. The food is excellent and tastes very authentic! The Dulce de Leche cappuccino was a highlight as was the cheese filled hash brown. Highly recommend! My only gripe is that they don’t accept Amex

T. M.

Been here a few times over the course of a year or two, coffee was much better the first time i visited. Overall a relaxed atmosphere and nice cafe.

D. T. T.

Amy served me the best damn mocha I have ever had in my life! The breakfast was amazing but the coffee was possibly the best drink I've ever had!

N. B.

Called in here for lunch on a Saturday, great location opposite the museum. The place has a lovely laid back vibe, music is of its theme and the staff reflect that in their friendliness. Party of 4 all ate lunch and drank fab coffee blended from central and southern American beans. Food was great coffee was greater.....after lunch cakes better still! Service was speedy without feeling rushed and the food was super tasty. I liked how we could satisfy the veggie/vagan palate in our group too. Will definitely call again!

ぶ.

I had what I though would be just a burger but it was amazing. Possibly the best burger I've ever had. Will be back every rime I'm in the area

P. W.

Got a business lunch hour in Preston city centre? This is the place to go. A South American themed, modern clean establishment with friendly, quick service and a cheery smile, in a very pleasant location - speedy but not rushed. My food arrived in plenty of time to eat the first course and have time to order and enjoy a dessert, along with a speciality Colombian coffee. My first course (Llapingacos - a kind of hash brown filled with cheese and served with egg, fried or scrambled) was incredibly tasty, and the whole menu is reasonably priced. I enjoyed it so much that I picked up a loyalty card with the intention of returning here over my next two weeks of lunchtimes in Preston.

P. R.

The coffee here is fantastic. I highly recommend the Argentina coffee. Very chilled atmosphere and friendly staff. Food is good with a large variety to choose from but I would say the Choripan is a must.

S. M.

A lovely Brazilian themed café with tasty fresh coffee and traditional Brazilian ) Portuguese custard cake and Pata Di Naya puff pastry custard tarts. Rustic but bright and cheery interior and friendly staff. A highlight would be the view of the town square and impressive Harris building. Toilets are up some spiral stairs didn't see an accessible option.

P. S.

Fabulous breakfast, really tasty and enjoyable, very nice coffee and the staff are lovely too. Loads of gluten free options and a nice view onto the square - top marks all round, best cafe experience we've had in a while!

R.

This place! I get excited to go it’s like Christmas! The food is delicious the coffee is creamy the staff are friendly i highly recommend God bless xxxx

T. H.

Best coffee in Preston hands down. I'd highly recommend the breakfast menu too, especially after a good morning run. Always a pleasure to visit.

E.

Good South American food, desserts and coffee. Don't like the antisocial QR code menu though

T. B.

The food is good, but it could have more Brazilian food.

S. A.

When you see the south american logo you get excited!! Then you think about cheese bread (pão de queijo). I saw them first, and I thought with myself :it was definitely from the day before. They assured me it wasn't!! 🙄 I had the first bite and it was from the day before. Hard and tasteless!! Other than that, average service and good atmosphere in the centre of Preston!

A. G.

Not bad at all. Seemed authentic food. Little pricey with small portions sizes but I enjoyed the flavours and it wasn't something I had had before.

J. H.

Cute little cafe, great place to unwind and chill! Food and drink is amazing and the ambiance is on point!

D. H.

Best cafe in Preston if you havnt tried their speciality coffees you are missing out

H. S.

Was a little outside of my normal breakfast choices. However I thoroughly enjoyed the cafuné breakfast, with a Brazilian cappuccino.

A. L.

South American style cafe with lots of authentic choices on the menu. Cosy inside with little sofas and a view of the Harris museum. Service is quick.

D.

Cafuné is a lovely little gem. The food is delicious, the menu is excellent! Highly recommend the Reina Pepiada Arepas, they're so creamy and light. The staff are really nice and it has such a nice, relaxing atmosphere.

D. V.

Amazing me and my girlfriend had one of the sandwiches each. I suggest you drop what you are doing and go eat there now

B. M.

This is a nice little cafe in Preston doing very nice coffee, the cake was nice too. At the time of visiting a student discount was available too.

P. L.

One of the best cafes I've ever been to, first time visiting. Really clean and fresh smelling. Very clean toilets. Best tasting hot chocolate and vanilla slice cake ive ever had. Very pleasant staff. Proper boxes to take food out in. Very good with the service and food👍 Will defo be coming back again

A. M.

The perfect spot honestly. Arrived with my Sister and son, we sat outside due to having a pram. No issues at all, more than enough space, very welcoming and friendly staff, affordable, food was absolutely delicious. The whole atmosphere is definitely worth it !!! Will indeed recommend and return !!

T. M.

Was a very nice atmosphere in this place with decent food tho its a little pricey the coffee i had was great

C. L.

Amazing coffee shop! Alot of veggie opciones, the Arepas are fantastic and the coffee is delicious with original flavors like mango and coconut latte

A. T.

Excellent first experience at Cafune. I had The Chivito with a Brazilian Latte. The first bite I had of my Chivito, which is warm beef, ham, fried egg, gooey mozzarella, pickles and tomato all on a toasted mayo bap, was phenomenal. I didn't have the pickles or tomato on it but my word that first bite took me to another world. The latte was on point too. Service was great and the food came in a timely manner. The food actually arrived faster than the hot drinks I'd ordered for my partner, son and I. Definitely will be visiting here again.

C. C.

Really enjoyed our first visit to Cafune - great location, friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely recommend calling in for an Arepa, Brazilian Custard Cake and Argentinian Cappuccino!

T. A.

Food is amazing , the deserts are the best , staff very quick and polite will definitely visit again

T. G.

A fantastic cafe with friendly staff. The food was spot on as was the fresh coffee. We will be back again for sure 👍🏻

E. P.

One of the best coffees in Preston's city center! Very friendly atmosphere and people! Extra tip pet friendly!

l.

One of my favorite places here, being used to Spanish cuisine it's very comforting to have similar food right in town. The Carnita Arepa is delicious and nicely portioned, and the inside of the restaurant feels nice and cozy. The coffee is incredible and topping it off with a dessert like a Mango Cheesecake slice is just as good. Also like the staff, each time we have gone in it has always been consistent & friendly! Pic is of an iced caramel latte, highly recommend!

Y.

I love it here. The lady at the till was so kind and the desserts were delicious. I will be back.

L. P.

Loved this place, only ordered coffee but it was amazing with its own twist. Finished and immediately wanted another, ha! I would definitely have ordered food but had already eaten, it was a shame too as the menu looked delicious. I'm absolutely going to come again and definitely going to get some lunch next time- with more coffee!!!

P. K.

Wonderful food, drinks, smoothie, pancakes and desserts. Very well priced.

S. A.

A hidden gem on the Preston High Street just opposite the Harris museum. Loved the mango and coconut cappuccino. Great decor and music. Will definitely be back.

M. I.

Amazing food, atmosphere and very friendly staff!

J. J.

Have visited multiple times now and will definitely be back again. The Brazilian custard cake is a new favourite along side the existing classic Portuguese custard tart. The coffee is top notch, not over roasted like a lot of places so it has some good flavours. The staff are polite and friendly. The breakfast I've had - Llapingachos (hash brown filled with cheese and served with two fried eggs) was delicious.

L. V. E.

It may be because I'm slightly hungover but I had a moment when the bossa nova horns swelled and I bit into a plantane where I was transported to South America.

S. K.

Superb coffee that outshines all the chains by a mile, but you've got to come for the food. I can't get enough of the breakfasts, especially the eggs with black beans. Whenever anyone visits from out of town we bring them here and they love it. It makes a nice change for Preston to be ahead of the game and this cafe offers something unique. Keep it busy.

S. M.

Really excited to see this Brazilian coffee shop. Championing South America, its food, flavours and drinks, the cafe has a delicious array of cookies, cakes and pastries, as well ss a comprehensive hot and cold savoury menu for sandwiches and such. There are a small number of seats outside looking on the beautiful Market Square and the Harris Museum. Prices are very competitive and the food and coffee are delicious.

Z. K.

Good food and coffee especially the mango and coconut latte

S.

Breath of fresh air for Preston simplistic but authentic decor with great tasting coffee and delicious cakes its brilliant to have something a little different and unique for a change.

M. N.

Excellent cafe, fantastic coffee and food served by friendly staff who will help you choose new things from the menu. The surroundings are rustic but nice and there is a great Latin American vibe. I'll be back next time I've a break in Preston

N. A. D.

Small but lovely. Delicious coffees and authentic sweets from South America. I bought some coconut cakes to take home. I didn't taste the savory food but it looked very good. I will repeat soon.

A. P.

I really love this place, I visited once just after it opened and got back to Preston recently so went back to see what it's like. Lovely place, great seating and atmosphere as well as welcoming staff that make the place feel relaxing to be in. To top it all off they've got great coffee and a nice selection of food. Fantastic place

R. B.

I've only been here a few times, but I've loved every visit. They have a wide selection of vegetarian and Vegan friendly food, fantastic milk alternatives and a delicious range of smoothies. Check it out, no hesitation it'll be worth your time!

D. P.

Went for the first time with my friend the other week. Food was excellent, will definitely go again.

D. C.

Great spot, loads of hot & cold food options, delicious coffee, plenty of seating and a chilled vibe 👌🏻

Great service friendly staff, their chorizo sandwich was delicious. The banana cake and vegan chocolate cake were divine, I got both because they gave me one slice free because I was graduating! Cannot rate them highly enough!

M. P.

Oh my word the red velvet hot chocolate was divine and the food is amazing. The coffee was perfect and the prices are worth it

S. C.

Lovely staff, authentic food, great choices for lunch and amazing cakes!

A. C.

Great location for a quick lunch and delicious drinks

R. H.

Nice healthy lunch with good staff. Really good effort to make the cafe Covid secure with QR code menus, sanitising the chairs and tables before we sat down, visibly seeing staff sanitising their hands regularly.

L. S.

Lovely place and atmosphere, friendly staff, cozy upper level and authentic feel to the place. Would love to see more vegan sandwich options on the menu although the staff came up with a solution immediately, fantastic service and a great view, right opposite Harris museum

A. F.

Amazing food with such a passion from all staff, the attention to detail such as bringing the recipie for their sausages from south america and finding a local butcher to make them shows how much they care. Great tasting coffee and homemade cakes a must stop off in your in Preston hell anywhere near Preston

P.

Polite and cheerful service, good coffee with interesting flavour combinations (coconut and mango latte?? My girlfriend's new favourite). Food's tasty and reasonably priced.

A really nice Brazilian coffee shop in the heart of Preston. A variety of very good quality sandwiches and perfect coffee to go with it. The customer service is excellent.
