Ranti Kamak Galapagos Coffee is a café anchored in Española, Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, where the local island vibe seeps into every cup. This spot draws both locals and visitors looking for a thoughtfully crafted coffee experience that reflects the Galápagos’ unique character. It’s especially appealing to coffee enthusiasts who appreciate being able to choose roast levels—from medium to dark—and savor island-specific creations like the Pie of Coffee and Passion Fruit or an espresso paired with fresh orange juice.

The atmosphere strikes a balance between modern comfort and casual island charm. Inside, the seating is ample and relaxed, inviting you to linger whether you’re nursing a cappuccino or settling in with your laptop. A small outdoor nook by the windows gives a nice dose of fresh air, ideal for people-watching or a quiet moment with your affogato.

Customer experience here often highlights the friendly, knowledgeable staff who guide guests through the diverse menu—ranging from classic americanos and lattes to more inventive options like the pistachio latte or the Sunset Galápagos (a tangerine espresso blend). This makes it a good stop for those who want to explore local coffee culture in an approachable way. The baked goods, including cinnamon rolls, complement the drinks well and add a laid-back café brunch vibe.

Besides sitting down for a coffee, many appreciate that Ranti Kamak also offers coffee beans for sale—whole or ground—and branded mugs, which ties into locals and travelers alike wanting to take a bit of the Galápagos coffee scene home. Mornings and early afternoons tend to be the prime times to visit when the café buzzes with island residents starting their day or catching up mid-morning.

Overall, it works well for those who enjoy a grounded, island-rooted coffee stop with subtle modern touches, a friendly crew, and an easygoing space that welcomes both the curious traveler and the local who just wants a good cup of coffee in hand.

What a wonderful gem! We stopped here looking for a “fancier” coffee and found just that. The staff is super friendly and the menu is available as soon as you come in. The have tons of coffees, espresso, sandwiches, and sweet treats. I highly recommend their “cinnamon roll” and the espresso with the orange juice (sounds wild, but was delicious). I will also say get the pistachio latte if you like pistachio (absolutely yummy). There is a decent amount of seating and the vibe in the place is super cute. We ended up coming here twice because it was so good. You can tell the place is run by people who genuinely enjoy coffee, the beans, and the whole experience. The wifi is free and was super fast considering other places on the island. There is also a really cute area to write/draw on a post it note and leave it on a board! Make sure to do this if you can :)

Highly recommend for best coffee, staff especially female barista is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We loved the cappuccino, latte and sunset Galápagos (tangerine and espresso). The coffee beans make a great souvenir as well!

The Ecuadorian coffee served here is rich in flavor and aroma, reflecting the region’s pride in its coffee culture. Their cappuccinos are very good, perfectly crafted with a creamy balance that will satisfy any coffee aficionado. Don’t miss out on their cinnamon rolls, they are simply delicious, with just the right balance of sweetness and spice, making them the perfect pairing with your coffee.

The coffee is spectacular. Went several times. I only drink espresso which they serve with a small piece of chocolate. Eye opening especially after eating at restaurant across the way, El Sazon de Jessi (no sign) to wake up from my food coma. They grind the coffee for you if you want to buy some to take home. They also sell art here and have some lovely items. Highly recommend. Cash only.
