Why Travelers Love Boulenc
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
4.6 / 5.0(8,007 reviews)
Loved it here very much! Amazing food, plenty of different options to choose from (also vegetarian) and an impressive drinks menu ranging from kombuchas and lemonades to cocktails, Mexican cava and mezcals. It’s also very cosy there, it’s a lovely covered courtyard so it’s kind of outside but not warm from the sun. I can see why this place has the high rating that it does. I opted for the yogurt bowl and it was divine! My husband had a sandwich and it was massive! Despite the portions, they were not heavy. Loved the fresh ingredients and lovely staff. Looks to be very popular with tourists. Boulenic is a gem in Oaxaca! We had breakfast here and really enjoyed it. French toast was best we ever had. The pastries and breads are absolutely delicious — fresh, buttery, and full of flavor. Coffee is excellent and pairs perfectly with their baked goods. The place has a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger. Service is friendly and attentive, and everything feels made with care. A must-visit for anyone who loves good coffee , artisanal pastries and good food.

We stopped by Boulenc in Oaxaca after looking at it online. The place has a lovely vibe — warm, busy, and full of energy. The food was fine, though it didn’t quite live up to the hype. We had to wait around 20 minutes to get in, so it’s clearly a popular spot, but overall it was a pleasant enough experience.

Enjoyable breakfast. Had a baguette with wonderful house made bread and high quality cured meats. Quiche was moderate and served ice cold, which was weird. She loved her shakshuka. Worth a stop for the bread.
